Chapter 70: Horrifying Underground Bare-Knuckle Fight
The sunlight shines into the ward through the window, bringing a touch of warmth to this slightly dull space.
Heilong stood up suddenly, walked quickly to his mother's bed, and whispered, "Mom, you're awake.
Look, that guy over there, he is my friend, his name is Luo Hao."
When Heilong's mother heard her son's voice, she slowly turned her head and a warm smile appeared on her face.
The pair of eyes that looked a little old due to illness stayed on Luo Hao for a moment, and then he said softly: "Young man, you and Long Er are friends who just met, right?
In the past, Long Er was always not good at speaking and didn't have many friends. Now I am really happy to meet you."
Luo Hao walked to the bedside and bowed deeply, "Hello, auntie, my name is Luo Hao, Long Er and I are very good friends."
Heilong's mother's smile was as warm as the sunshine, which reminded Luo Hao of his own mother.
At this moment, an inexplicable emotion surged in his heart. What would he do if his mother encountered such a predicament?
Heilong's mother noticed Luo Hao's expression. She gently picked up a knife beside her and peeled an apple for Luo Hao.
She handed over the apple with a smile and said softly, "Young man, have an apple. You look so sweaty."
Luo Hao stretched out his hands and respectfully took the apple, a warm feeling welling up in his heart.
He looked up at Heilong's mother, and saw that her eyes were so gentle.
She asked softly, “Young man, are you a boxer too?
I see that you, like Ryuji, have an indomitable spirit.
I guess you must be pretty good, right? "
Luo Hao nodded and replied with a smile: "Aunt, you are too kind, I am just an ordinary boxer.
But I will train hard and strive to be as good as Ryuji one day."
When Heilong's mother heard this, her eyes became moist.
She sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness and self-blame in her voice: "My body has always been a burden to Long Er and distracted him.
If my health was better, I think Ryuji would be a famous boxer now."
At this point, Black Dragon's mother's eyes began to moisten, and those crystal tears seemed to carry endless bitterness and expectations.
When Luo Hao saw this scene, his heart felt like it was hit by a heavy hammer and the pain was unbearable.
He knew very well that he could not share the pressure with Heilong, but he wanted to do something for this mother.
Luo Hao took a deep breath, stood up, and bowed to Black Dragon's mother again: "Aunt, I have to go back to the boxing gym now. I will come to visit you next time!"
After saying that, Luo Hao turned and left the ward.
Black Dragon looked at Luo Hao's departing back, and the color in his eyes gradually dimmed. He knew that Luo Hao's departure meant that his last hope was shattered.
However, at this time, Luo Hao's voice came from outside the ward: "Friend, I agree to your request!"
The sound was like timely help, making the Black Dragon, which was about to die, flourish again.
Black Dragon immediately got up and chased to the door, only to see Luo Hao's figure getting farther and farther away.
Luo Hao walked out of the hospital gate, feeling relieved.
"Crack!"
He took a bite of the apple in his hand, and the sweet taste dispelled all the depression in Luo Hao's heart: "It's so sweet!"
At eight o'clock the next evening, in the Keihin Industrial Zone, it was still the abandoned factory building surrounded by barbed wire.
Luo Hao was led by Black Dragon and walked into the factory step by step.
"I have already made an agreement with the boss. You will be my substitute in this fight. And your face will be covered with paint. No one can recognize your true identity. They only know you as Pile Driver.
Luo Hao, you have to remember that boxing here is different from regular boxing.
There are no rules or restraints here, only a fight of life and death. You must be ruthless and never show mercy. Being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself."
As he walked into the factory, a damp and musty smell was like a pair of invisible hands, tightly strangling Luo Hao's throat, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.
And the faint smell of blood stimulates everyone's hidden violent nerves.
There were only a few shabby chandeliers above the factory building, emitting dim light, barely illuminating this huge space.
In the center of the factory, an arena surrounded by iron nets is particularly eye-catching.
The area around the ring was still full of people.
Their eyes were focused on the ring, where a fierce bare-knuckle match was taking place.
In the ring, two boxers were fighting fiercely.
Luo Hao stood in the corner, his eyes involuntarily attracted by the two shirtless, muscular bodies on the field.
Their fists struck each other like sledgehammers, and every hit was accompanied by the sound of bones crackling and muscles tearing.
A boxer had a shocking gash on his face, with blood gushing out, but he seemed to feel no pain and continued to swing his fists wildly, with only the desire for victory in his eyes.
Luo Hao's throat rolled unconsciously. He had never seen such a brutal battle.
Here, every confrontation may be a battle of life and death, and he is about to become the next protagonist of this bloody feast.
"It's your turn in the next game. Now let me wrap the boxing bandage on your hand." Black Dragon's voice sounded in Luo Hao's ears.
Luo Hao looked up and saw Black Dragon skillfully wrapping bandages around him. Every movement seemed so focused and serious.
Luo Hao's gaze unconsciously shifted to those luxurious private rooms, where sat a group of business tycoons and community bosses.
The stakes are high enough to make every battle here more intense and brutal.
A fear of trying the unknown surged in Luo Hao's heart.
He knew that he had already promised Black Dragon and could not back down at this time.
However, facing such a brutal confrontation, it was difficult for him to remain calm.
Black Dragon seemed to sense Luo Hao's nervousness. He gently patted Luo Hao's cheek, and his tone was encouraging and comforting: "Luo Hao, don't be nervous.
I've played here four times and won all of them.
You are stronger than me, as long as you don't get nervous and bring out your full potential, you will definitely win."
Luo Hao felt the warmth from the black dragon's palm and felt a little more at ease.
When he thought again of the upcoming life-and-death duel, the fear in his heart surged like a tide.
“Has any boxer ever been killed here?”
Heilong's expression changed slightly. This was the question he least wanted to hear.
He still tried to remain calm and replied: “This is an underground boxing ring, life and death are determined by fate.
As long as you do what I say, you'll be fine."
Luo Hao nodded silently, but his heart was full of uncertainty and uneasiness.
He knew that this battle was not just a simple duel for him, but also a major test in his life.
He must overcome his inner fear in order to survive this life-and-death battle.
From another perspective, the underground bare-knuckle match is also an ultimate mental test for Luo Hao.
