Birds of a Feather Flock Together / Suika, the Bathhouse Emperor ...

Another person cleverly remarked.

Upon hearing his words, the former's eyes lit up, and the two immediately split up and ran to the left and right of Suika.

"Little girl, you said you'd only throw one punch. I'd like to see how you manage to hit both of us brothers." After they had spread out for several meters, one of them said with a smug look on his face.

Chapter 120 Those who are not family will not enter the same door.

Suika wasn't angry at the provocation.

Instead, he silently clenched his fist, then pointed one hand forward while making a punching motion with the other hand behind him.

"Hey, you think you can hit me from this far away? Are you giving up? If you give up, we won't pay you!"

Seeing Suika's actions, the man shouted even louder.

At this moment, Xia Li looked around in confusion, feeling the air currents blowing towards Suika.

In the blink of an eye, the two people, who were dozens of meters apart, were pulled in front of Suika by a tremendous force that appeared out of nowhere.

Before the two could react, her fist had already slammed into the chest of the person in front. That person was sent flying backward as if hit by a dump truck, crashing into the person behind. The two rolled on the ground for dozens of meters before coming to a stop.

When Xia Li ran over, he found that the two men had broken all their bones, their pupils were dilated, and they had lost all signs of life.

The others who had been watching this area didn't dare to say a word after seeing Suika kill the two so decisively. They all buried their heads in their chests, looking as if they were afraid of being called out by Suika.

After finishing all this, Suika walked back to her campfire, took out her Ibuki Gourd, and sipped her drink.

On the other side, after confirming that the two had lost their lives, Xia Li shook his head, sighed, and said, "You reap what you sow." Then he walked back to the crowd, called a few strong men to dig a large pit nearby, and threw the two dead men into it.

After doing all this, she returned to Suika's side.

"Could I have a bite?" Xia Li asked wearily.

"Of course, I said we're friends. This wine is strong, so drink it slowly." Suika smiled and poured Xia Li a glass, handing it to him.

Seeing Xia Li cough after finishing her drink, Suika smiled and patted her shoulder.

"I told you this liquor was strong, you weren't careful, you choked on it!"

Am I a failure?

Do you want me to tell the truth?

Xia Li nodded

That's true to some extent.

As the team leader, you should have absolute authority over the team before we reach Karaton.

Those two guys, I don't think it would have been difficult for you to deal with them, but you chose to persuade them—a method they don't care about at all...

If I were the team leader, I would absolutely expel any team members who dared to disobey my orders.

Once people's hearts have been scattered, it's not easy to win them back.

I don't know why you tolerate these people's behavior so much, but you have to understand that you appear to be a unified team from the outside. If it were me, I might be a little more lenient, but if it were someone else, their mistakes would make your entire team pay the price.

Therefore, the ability to make decisive decisions is the most important skill in leading a team effectively.

Suika recalled some things about Xia Li. She seemed to be a soldier, and the reason she chose to leave the army and return to Gaodoting was that the army she led from Gaodoting seemed to have all died in a war because of a conspiracy. She couldn't even bring back the nameplates of those soldiers, so she chose to leave the army and return to her hometown in grief and indignation.

Perhaps that's why she has such a high tolerance for these people from her hometown.

But Suika felt that this tolerance might bring her danger.

Xia Li was well aware of what Suika had said, but she always felt guilty towards everyone because of what had happened before, and it was this guilt that allowed these people to take advantage of her.

Previously, based on Xia Li and Suika's conversation, I thought Suika was an easy person to talk to. In addition, the treatment potion that Suika just took out was so effective. For Infected, no one would not want to have such a life-saving item by their side at any time, which is why some people take advantage of the situation.

But Suika's punch completely shattered their naive hopes, reminding them of the true status of Infected in the world they lived in.

The once lively procession suddenly became deserted because of this incident.

The next morning, Xia Li originally wanted Suika to go with everyone, since their destination was Karaton and the distance wasn't too far.

Suika waved her hand and gestured with her eyes to several people in the crowd behind the other person whose eyes were darting around.

"Forget it. We're not even sure if the two people we killed last night have any relatives here. Do you think they'd feel uncomfortable having a murderer like me on the operation?"

"Then be careful... Karaton is in this direction. If you walk along the river, you should be able to see it in about two days."

This is my address in Karaton. You can find me here when you arrive.

Xia Li pointed to the upstream of the stream beside them and said to Suika.

"Okay, I'll come find you after I get to Karaton."

Suika took the business card from Xia Li and put it in her pocket. After watching the people leave, she got up and slowly walked along the river towards Karaton.

Since the two sides were not far apart, they arrived at the city of Karaton one after the other.

While Suika was standing in line behind the crowd entering the city, Xia Li and his group were not far ahead.

Several figures, upon seeing Suika's striking appearance, flashed a hint of hatred in their eyes.

However, Suika was far behind, did not notice, or even if she did, she wouldn't care.

Just as a strong person wouldn't care about an ant on the roadside that raises its claws to swagger at them.

After taking pictures for a few minutes, Suika felt someone looking over. She looked up and saw someone pointing at her and chattering. Then, several Victoria soldiers walked over.

She hadn't paid much attention to the soldiers' behavior at first, but when they saw her and locked onto her like a target, Suika was speechless. Sure enough, what male-oriented novels say is true: if you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring breeze.

"Miss, this is the queue for ordinary people. The queue for Infected is on the other side." After the soldier finished speaking, people around Suika scattered far away. Those who heard the soldier's words looked at Suika with disgust, and some cursed and said things like why Karaton allowed these damned Infected into the city.

Suika spread her arms and shook her head helplessly.

"I'm not Infected, it's okay for me to stand here."

"Not Infected?" The soldier was somewhat taken aback by Suika's words.

"I remember there are special machines at the import and export checkpoints that scan for Infected, right? Why don't you scan me?" The machine that Suika was referring to was because some Infected do not show their symptoms on the outside, so in emergency situations, when it is necessary to thoroughly distinguish between Infected and non- Infected in a crowd, the military uses a special machine to make a judgment.

This type of equipment is typically found in all medium to large-sized Mobile City.

Hearing what Suika said, the soldier realized he had probably been tricked, since he wouldn't dare to ask for a scan if he were truly Infected.

Chapter 121 The Bathing Emperor - Suika

By the time he rushed back in a rage, those people had already disappeared into the crowd.

Suika squinted as she looked towards the Infected neighborhood.

She considered herself a fairly moral person, not the kind of protagonist in a wish-fulfillment novel who would take someone into his Human Emperor Banner just because they misunderstood him.

But it's not in her nature to silently endure such repeated provocations.

Although she didn't see who did it, she was fully aware of the malice that several people in her team had shown her after she killed those two guys.

Even someone with Ibuki Gourd's intuition would know that this matter must be related to those people. However, since they have entered the city and chosen to cause trouble for me here, they must know that they cannot do anything to me on their own, so they resorted to this tactic.

Even if it doesn't hinder Suika's actions, it can still annoy her.

Suika said that if Human Emperor Banner, she would definitely invite those guys in to purify their minds.

But for now, she needs to get into the city first; as for causing trouble for those guys, that can wait.

After entering the city, Suika didn't go directly to the address Xia Li had given her, but instead stood in front of a shop.

Minos's Spring Professional Corner Care Shop: Our shop specializes in corner care, polishing, waxing, and scratch repair, ensuring your corners look brand new every day.

To be honest, she was somewhat tempted.

After all, I've been running around outside every day and haven't had time to take care of my horns.

After trekking through mountains and rivers and facing harsh environments, she could feel that her horns had become rougher to the touch.

A gust of wind blew by, and she could faintly hear a rustling sound coming from the corner, which made her decide to get some skincare.

True to her word, Suika pushed open the shop door.

"Welcome... to..." A Forte woman dressed in slightly revealing clothing walked out from inside. When she saw Suika, a hint of surprise appeared on her smiling face just a second ago.

Suika didn't pay much attention to the other person's clothing. After all, it was summer, and there were plenty of people dressed lightly. She could only say that the boss was more attractive because she was plump.

Besides, she came here to pamper her horn, not to pick up girls. She didn't care what the proprietress looked like. So Suika blinked, pointed to the shop sign, and then pointed to her own horn, saying...

"Boss lady, would you mind doing a scalp treatment... the full set, please?"

The Forte woman's lips twitched, and after sizing up Suika, she spoke.

"Of course, please have a seat, sir. I'll immediately call our best mechanic to come and help you with the maintenance."

After saying that, she hurriedly walked to the back.

Suika scratched her head at the other party's inexplicable behavior and sat down on a simple-looking stool by the door. Her face was full of confusion. This shop didn't seem professional at all, leaving customers waiting outside. It was only because she didn't care; anyone with a temper would probably have just turned around and left.

A few minutes later, a woman who looked to be in her forties came out. She looked Suika up and down before asking her question with a puzzled expression.

"Young lady, are you here for a dermal treatment?"

"Of course, I'm not here to pamper my horns, what else would I be here for!" Suika sized up the other person. Although she had some doubts, she recognized the item in the person's hand; it was indeed a polishing and waxing product.

"Then please be at ease, let me take a look at your horns first..." After confirming that Suika was indeed there for horn maintenance, the woman seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, then put the things aside and reached out to Suika's horns.

"Tsk tsk, your horns are so beautiful, but you probably don't take good care of them!" the woman exclaimed, feeling the rough texture of the horns.

"That's true. I'm often out and about, and I don't usually have the chance. If I hadn't happened to be passing by and attracted by the advertisement, I wouldn't have..."

While Suika was making her own comments, the door was suddenly kicked open.

"Routine check, everyone raise your hands, do not move..."

Then a group of Victoria military and police officers filed in.

Then they looked at each other, along with the woman at the door who was wiping Suika's corner with a fine cloth, and Suika herself, who looked completely bewildered.

The woman was clearly not expecting this place, and was so frightened that she didn't know where to put her hands and feet.

"You can continue!" After sizing up the two men, the leading military policeman said, then led the others to the back.

Then came a series of chaotic noises from behind.

A short while later, a group of disheveled men and women, covering their faces, were dragged out from behind by military police.

Suika's eyes widened; she finally realized that something had been off about this place from the very beginning.

So this "care horn" isn't for the horns on the head, but for the horns underneath...

No wonder the woman who initially served customers seemed so... charming, yet she was so flustered upon seeing me.

At that moment, she felt as if her integrity had been stolen by a certain red and white creature.

Looking at the woman standing there, somewhat stunned after those people were taken away, Suika, ignoring all shamelessness, calmly said...

"Please use the best wax for me when you wax it."

Since things had come to this, what could she say? She could only blame herself for being a shut-in in her previous life and not being able to afford a Cadillac, so she knew nothing about this thing.

If it were a bathhouse Emperor, he would probably already know what type of place this is as soon as he walks in.

"Okay..." The woman never expected that she would be so lucky to escape disaster because of this accident.

Soon it became completely quiet inside, indicating that the place had been almost entirely cleared out.

The military policeman looked Suika and then said...

"Did you just come in from outside?"

"That's right, we've just arrived in Karaton and already witnessed such a lively spectacle, it's quite delightful!"

Suika was surprised that the other person knew her, and she couldn't help but recall where they had met before.

No need to think about it anymore. The guy who called you out for inspection at the city gate was one of my soldiers.

"That's really a misfortune..." Suika's tone was somewhat helpless. Since entering Karaton, she had encountered all sorts of things, but she had always managed to avoid them. She didn't know whether this was lucky or unlucky.

The officer reached out and poked a bubble on one of the corners, giving it a strange smile.

"Coming here for bean curd treatments... I can't believe you even thought of that."

Remember, for future maintenance, go to reputable shops in the city center, otherwise you might get arrested for doing something else...

Chapter 122 Karaton's Pink Piggy

"How much longer do you have?" the officer asked the woman.

"Ten minutes... no, five minutes..." When she said ten minutes, the woman saw the officer's angry eyes widen, and her legs trembled. She cut the time she said in half.
