Chapter 824


    Hamlin City was a small town on the border of Westamor District. There was no airport there so the


    only way they could get there was by train.


    The train journey took six hours. By the time Fade and Mabel arrived in Hamlin City, it was already


    dark outside.


    Mabel''s home was in cksburg, south of Hamlin City. However, as it was already quitete in the


    day, there were no cars heading there at this time.


    Therefore, they decided to check into a hotel near the train station for a night, and then head to


    cksburg first thing in the morning.


    As they were heading to the hotel, Mabel tried to call her parents to inform them of the n, but


    their phones were switched off. She thought that her parents must have fallen asleep. Mabel did not


    think too much about it and continued on to the hotel with Fade.


    The hotel nearest to the railway station was aze with lights, and there were some scantily d


    women leaning against the doors. They cast flirtatious nces at the passers- by. It was obvious


    that they were involved in that sort of


    business.


    Fade decided that this was not an appropriate hotel to spend the night in. Instead, he continued to


    walk a little further and eventually found a decent looking three-story hotel.


    Thankfully, hotels in the smaller towns did not have any troublesome procedures. Fade and Mabel


    managed to pay for two rooms without needing to show their ID.


    After walking Mabel to her room, Fade told her, "Go to bed early. We will depart first thing tomorrow


    morning."


    Then, Fade went to his room, took a shower and prepared to go to bed.


    However, at this moment, there was a knock on the door. Fade thought that it was Mabel, so he


    went to open the door.


    A woman with heavy makeup leaned against the door, speaking Mandarin with a Chinese ent,


    and said, "Sir, do you need any service?"


    Fade didn''t expect that he would stumble upon these women when he had tried his best to find a


    regr hotel. He frowned and waved his hand, saying, "No, I don''t need any."


    Fade declined and was about to close the door. However, the woman stopped him from closing the


    door and threw a flirtatious nce at Fade.


    She deliberately pulled her cor down and exposed her snow-white skin. She said, "Sir, we have


    plenty of other options. I am pretty sure there''s someone that can meet your needs. It is not


    expensive at all, only 400 yuan for one night."


    Fade became more stern and he said, "I already told you that I do not need any service. If you don''t


    leave now, I will call the police."


    When the woman heard that Fade was going to call the police, she immediately pulled back her


    hand. She nced sideways at Fade and muttered, "What a stuck up."


    As she spoke, the woman strutted to another room and knocked on the door.


    Fade closed the door, shook his head,y on the bed, and was about to fall asleep.


    After a while, just as Fade was about to fall asleep in bed, there was a slight clicking sound. A figure


    quietly snuck in, walked over to the other side of the bed, and got in.


    Fade immediately woke up and sat up. He pushed the person away and shouted, "Who are you?"


    At the same time, Fade turned on the light in the room, and saw a woman lying on the edge of his


    bed. He looked carefully and realized that it was the scantily d woman who had knocked on his


    door earlier.


    "How did you get in? What do you want to do?" Fade red at the woman and shouted.


    The woman was shocked and her expression changed. She immediately rushed to Fade''s side and


    shouted at the same time, "Come in!"


    Suddenly, three burly men rushed in from outside the room. One of them had a camera in his hand.


    The other two walked towards Fade with a fierce look and kept shouting.


    "A**hole, who are you? How dare you bully my sister?!"


    "How dare youy your hands on my woman. How do you want to settle this?"


    "Do you want me to call the police or do you want topensate us with money?"


    The three of them surrounded Fade fiercely as they shouted at him.


    The woman looked as if she was on the verge of tears as she cried, "He, he bullied me. He tore off


    my clothes and forced me..."


    "Boy, you betterpensate us, or well call the police and report you for attempting to r*pe her.


    You''re looking at least 10 years in jail." One man shouted fiercely and knocked on the table with a


    steel pipe. He was very aggressive.


    When Fade saw and heard this, he immediately knew what was going on. They were trying to


    portray the woman as a victim and extort him for money.


    The woman deliberately came up to him and then a group of men woulde to catch the couple,


    asking forpensation to settle the matter.


    Moreover, the door of his room was locked, but the other party still managed to open his door. It


    was obvious that they had colluded with the hotel. Maybe they had copies of every room card in this


    hotel which allowed them to storm into people''s rooms to ckmail them.


    Seeing Fade''s silence, the others were unhappy. The man used the steel pipe to knock on the table,


    shouting, "Punk, talk! Do you want us to call the police or are you going topensate us?"


    "How dare you try to rape my sister! Let me tell you this, don''t think about settling this matter if you


    don''t have at least fifty thousand yuan." The group of people threatened fiercely.

    During this time, Fade remained calm. He looked at them coldly and said, "What an old-fashioned


    trick! Are you sure you want to extort me?"


    "Boy, stop talking nonsense. You betterpensate us!" One of them was impatient. He reached


    out and tried to grab Fade''s bag and


    clothes.


    When Fade saw this, his gaze lowered and he shouted, "You better put that down, otherwise, you


    will regret it."


    "Brat, at this moment, you still dare to say such vicious words. I''ll cripple you!" As he spoke, the


    man threw a steel pipe at Fade.


    Fade immediately punched the steel pipe away. "Bang!" Fade''s fist collided with the steel pipe.


    The steel pipe, which was as thick as the man''s arm, was bent into half, while Fade''s fist remained


    unscathed.


    This time, the men were shocked. "This, this is impossible, the steel pipe is..."


    "Forget it. Let''s attack together!" One of the men growled through gritted teeth.


    The three strong men rushed over and wanted to attack Fade, however Fade was ready for it. He


    snorted, then started punching and kicking them.


    After a series of crackling sounds, the three of them were beaten to a pulp and fell to the ground as


    they wailed. Fear was written all over their faces.


    When she saw this, the woman looked at Fade in horror, her face full of fear. She begged for mercy,


    "Sir, sir, I was forced. I am not in cahoots with them. Don''t hit me, sir, I—"


    Fade ignored her and was about to make his move.


    At this moment, a figure appeared at the door and shouted, "Brother Chen, are you all right?"


    Fade looked up and saw Mabel standing cautiously at the door. She had a worried look on her face


    as she stared at the men on the floor.


    "Mabel, I''m fine," Fade reassured her.


    Mabel came in and looked at the men on the ground. She still had some lingering fear on her face.


    "I could hear someone fighting and screaming from my room. I was worried about you, Brother


    Chen, so I came here to check on you."


    Fade said to Mabel, "Don''t worry. They were just trying to pull a fast one on me."
