Chapter 3 - Hoodlum Fight

"What the heck are those people doing geez..." Jin exclaimed as he tried to pedal faster as he saw his grandpa's bookstore being trashed.

And as he pedals hard he then quickly jump off the bike and let the road bike slammed to the first 2 hoodlums that were in front of the bookstore.

"This boomer, old man! oi! the boss wants you to sell this property already!" the hoodlum shouted, But then one of the hoodlums noticed a bike is heading straight to the other hoodlum but it was too late.

And when the road bike crashed onto the two hoodlums. "uhgk~" they voiced out as they felt the speed and impact of the road bike onto their bodies. They then are pushed a few meters away and then crash onto a pile of trash.

*Crshhh cling* the noise of the broken glass and the broken wood were heard. After that, the other hoodlums that were with the 2 hoodlums that have been knocked for a while glared at Jin.

"Errr, you stupid kid!" One of the Hoodlums exclaimed while he lunches himself towards Jin. Jin looks at the other hoodlum that was coming straight to him. He clenched his fist and he leans back so that he would be able to dodge the first attack. And the incoming punch was easily dodged by Jin, and even the second one that was launched at him that was pretty late.

And like, the hook punches of the hoodlums just go past by his head and the other one was so close but still was not able to hit him. Jin forms into a position where his body was leaned forward but lowers in direction. his fist in an uppercut position. Jin waited for an opening so that he can unleash his strength at an exact precise moment and when he saw an opening he tried to punch the hoodlum directly underneath his chin giving an uppercut punch.

"Ughhk" the Hoodlum was directly hit with an uppercut punch and the hoodlum was not able to dodge it. It was so unexpected because the hoodlum thought that Jin was just a kid. And has no experience in fighting. The body of the hoodlum was lifted up for a second before dropping on the ground with a lost tooth.

"This crazy kid is messing with us!" one of the hoodlums shouted angrily, as the other hoodlums saw how Jin be able to knock out one of their members they were all shocked and now scared.

"Let's go and tell this to our captain!" Jin only glanced at them with killing intent. After that, all of the hoodlums run for their lives but one hoodlum was not able to run properly and was tripped "What-".

Jin turns around and goes back to his senses and immediately runs back inside of the bookstore. And as he entered the Bookstore he saw his grandpa and his grandma arming themselves with only sticks. Jin then scratches the back of his head while smirking, "hey grand-papa! Hey grand-mama" he joyfully said as he followed it with a smile.

"Oh, Jin! Are you okay? We are being disturbed by those hoodlums" her grandma said as he walked over to him with a gentle smile. "Oh I have never seen them outside," Jin said with a giggle, and his grandpa looks at him and walked towards him.

"You know Jin, I am really lucky I have a grandson like you," his grandpa said those words while tapping Jin's shoulder and smiling.

"Also Grand-papa and Grand-mama, Father said that you also need to go home. Father was a bit worried about the situation of both of you." And when Jin said those words, both of his grandparents looked gloomy a bit. But it was immediately covered with their smile while looking at him.

"Yes, we will go back home as our grandson said." His grandpa said while going back to the counter of the Bookstore.

"Oh yeah, Grand-papa here is the book I have borrowed from the last time, and it's because the due date is expired I will pay this off" Jin then pulled a 2$ currency from his pocket and slide the money across the counter towards his Grandpa. His grandpa really was very admired for what Jin did.

After a while, Jin walked a few steps and goes to one of the bookshelves that were at the end of the bookstore to get some books that may help him. After 20 minutes of searching, Jin soon found a book that is dusty and covered with dirt. But Jin was confused because it was between a book that he has previously read.

The book's appearance was not that appealing as there are some damages, especially the destroyed book cover as it doesn't look appealing. But Jin was so curious about the Book. Jin looked at his grandpa and said with a calm voice "Hey, Grand-papa have you seen this book titled Blood Bullet?"

And then his grandpa replied with a soft tone of voice and confusion. "You know grandson that there are a lot of books in this Bookstore that even I did not know exist". So Jin goes back into grabbing the old book that he felt he was fond of and putting it in his bag.

After putting the book inside his bag Jin then sling his bag to his shoulder. After that Jin slowly walks towards the door. But before he was about to hold the handle he then turns around and said, "Hey Grand-papa I will go first I need to check my road bike".

After saying those words his grandpa and grandma wave at him while he walks away. "Take care grandson," his Grandpa said smiling and Jin smiled as he opens the door.

After walking out he saw that his Road bike was a miracle well parked at the side of the bookstore also with a lock. "Oh, that was a bit cool mhm"

Jin smiled quickly and unlocks the road bike sadly it was locked by the hoodlums. So he used a different tactic to unlock it. After 5 minutes he was able to unlock it. Jin looked at the ground grabs his helmet and carefully putting it on

After that Jin easily rides on his road bike, Jin slightly directed the handle of the bike towards the direction of the exit of the alley.

Jin at the start started slow pedaling and soon it increases to the amount of time that he was about to get exhausted. But his speed when he was about to go out of the road was spectacular.

Jin reached his home and he saw that the light from the living room is light so he already knows that his Father is already home. Jin's house was not that extravagant its a simple 2-floor house and an attic. His father was a Manager in a company and his mother is a housewife. Jin was an only son so he was always dotted and spoiled by his grandparents.

Jin entered the house and he said immediately as he enters. "Father..Mother I am home". After greeting his parents Jin removes his shoes and wears his slippers and putting his shoes in a proper place. As he entered the living room he was greeted by his Father.

"What did your Grandparents said? Are they coming home?" Jin replied as he was smiling. "They said they are coming home" His father goes back to watching tv. And Jin turns his head towards the kitchen and there he saw his mother cooking his favorite dish.. "I smell a great dish from my Mother!" Jin exclaimed.
