A mysterious figure f0632b196a appeared out of 75512308a1 nowhere and swiftly 9eac7adad2 dealt with the e94eb13650 thugs. With a single e8c7fc51b1 kick, Thug 1 81a0e765bc was sent flying, 0fb993dab2 and with one b63e442074 punch, Thug 2 a2da26983b was slammed into 402933aa05 the ground. The swift and precise ef8a452bab movements of the figure, aedd144771 taking down the attackers b8ca8c3bbe one by one, resembled cc3adfa449 the agility of Jjikjjiki.c5e674c83027adc9

I grabbed becb5f9dfc Jjikjjiki to 6f8a955117 stop him a500ffc59b from lunging cd95a57545 at Jane, 4f19d54922 which, surprisingly, 02603ead9d seemed to 8026da53e6 amuse her.c9f98e20a35efa22
