The Supreme Soldier in the City

After playing on the beach for half a day, the tide started to retreat, and John Brown led a group of people to catch sea creatures, which made little Emily Brown incredibly excited. Previously, Emily Berns had John Smith and his partner take care of Emily because they were afraid she might get hurt. They wouldn’t let her do anything slightly dangerous, fearing that even a small scrape would upset Emily Berns, let alone take her to the seaside to catch sea creatures.

Little Violet was having the time of her life, getting completely covered in mud in no time. John Brown didn’t stop her, and although Gina Lopez wanted to remind the little girl about hygiene, John Brown said that kids playing in the mud is a way to connect with nature and not necessarily a bad thing. Gina Lopez thought he had a point and decided to let Emily Brown be.

Everyone was a bit tired, and John Brown and the others didn’t plan to head back that night. By now, there were fewer and fewer people on the beach. John Brown had brought a big tent capable of sleeping six to seven people, and with only five of them there, it would be very comfortable.

While setting up the tent, a group of people suddenly rushed over. John Brown saw that one of them was the foul-mouthed woman from the morning, clearly here to snatch the video.

Gina Lopez and the others also noticed these people. Gina looked flustered, but Sandra Lopez and Charlotte were both thrilled, holding John Brown’s arms from either side. Sandra excitedly exclaimed, "Brother-in-law, someone’s here to pick a fight with us!"

Charlotte chimed in, unwilling to be left out, "Uncle, let me see some action this time!"

Gina Lopez felt a bit exasperated. Charlotte was young, so she could understand, but Sandra was the same age as her yet still so immature.

"James, should I call the police or contact someone higher up?" Gina Lopez wasn’t as she used to be; she met regularly with the Mayor and the City Maintenance Squad Head. Because of Lucy Campbell, these city officials were very friendly to her. If she made a call, they wouldn’t ignore it.

John Brown shook his head and said, "Calling them now would be too easy on them. Let them create a scene; the more trouble they make, the harsher the punishment."

"You mean..." Gina Lopez looked at John Brown in surprise.

John Brown nodded and said firmly, "Such scum won’t get a second chance from me, nor will I allow them to bully others again. If they dare to harm my daughter or my family, I won’t let them off."
