Chapter 14 Like a shadow!

Looking at Jason appearing behind him with a smile on his face.

The ‘old man’ felt like he was in another world.

Although they were separated for less than a day, it seemed as if more than ten years had passed.

Jason's face didn't change much, but his temperament was countless times calmer than before. His body seemed to be getting taller and burlier, but the alarm in his heart didn't sound.

Therefore, these immediately become unimportant.

Jason is still Jason.

Nothing has changed.

"Long time no see, Jason."

The 'old man' ignored the head in Jason's hand and gave Jason a hug as usual.

Then, the 'old man' sighed.

"I even left some late-night snacks and wine for you, but unfortunately... they are all reduced to dregs now."

"And Freddy and the others should be dead too."

"I thought I was going to die too."

The ‘old man’ was a little nagging.

Obviously, the pressure from the journey just now was a bit too much. Finally, the 'old man' took a step back, looked at Jason seriously, and said seriously: "I thought I would never see you again."

Jason smiled, said nothing, and just picked up the head in his hand.

"This is Doberman, one of the 'Six Evil Dogs'."

"Good at tracking."

"He followed me all the way just to find you."

"I tried to get rid of it, but it was too difficult."

"Feel sorry."

The 'old man' was full of apologies.

Anyone who brings danger to anyone needs an apology.

And, it must be sincere.

And, make up for it.

The 'old man' knows this.

So, he said immediately.

"Let's leave here right now. I have a 'safe house' in District 29. No one else knows about it. There are sufficient supplies there. We can stay there for the time being."

"Don't worry, I've prepared enough 'makeup' items there."

"'Jin' is chasing two people. As long as the three of us act together, we can eliminate half of the danger. Then, if we can become four people, the danger will be reduced by at least half."

"After all, no one would carelessly come and disturb four guys who don't seem to be easy to mess with."

The 'old man' said this.

Four people?

How to do it?

Lauren Delder was a little confused.

He didn't know how to do it, but he knew that the old man's suggestion would not work.

"District 29 is much more barbaric than District 16 where you are."

"Here, asking means being ready for war."

"Can you ensure that we are not exposed in the battle?"

Lauren Derde pointed to herself as she spoke.

He knows his own business, Lauren Delder's face and special head are so conspicuous.

Jason, the 'old man' can pretend.

What about him?

You can't wear a wig, right?

"You can wear a wig."

"Then, apply some powder."

"Use looser clothes as a cover. Trust me, maternity clothes are much better than your cloak."

The 'old man' said seriously.

Inside Lauren Delder's translucent skull, her brain was twitching rapidly.

"Jason, can I kill him?"

"I always feel like he's insulting me."

Lauren Delder turned her head and looked at Jason seriously.

And Jason?

He shrugged and made a gesture of invitation.

Lauren Delder pursed her lips and muttered in a very low voice that could be heard by the three of them: "Forget it this time, let you go first. If there is a next time, I will beat you up."

XX."

Is Lauren Delder stupid?

Of course not stupid.

He has obviously left Area 29 and entered Area 30.

But he returned to Area 29 because of the ‘old man’.

This is enough to show the importance of the 'old man' to Jason.

Of course he couldn't really kill the 'old man'.

However, it can bring the relationship between the two parties closer.

As for licking it directly?

Naturally it is not advisable.

So Lauren Delder used her own method.

Looking at the smile on Jason's lips, he knew that the effect was very good.

Then, this former collaborator of the 'big man' spoke directly to Jason.

"what to do?"

"Listen to you."

Lauren Delder, who has already established her position in the team, will not make a random decision at this time.

Similarly, the 'old man' also understood instantly.

Jason and Lauren Delder should have their own plan.

In particular, Lauren Delder did not let the alarm in his heart sound, which was enough to prove the other party's goodwill.

However, the 'old man' was still a little surprised in his heart.

Because, he could see that Jason was the leader of the two-person group in front of him.

Lauren Delder was not forced to follow Jason.

On the contrary, there is a kind of willingness.

He came up very obediently.

How did Jason do it?

The 'old man' couldn't help but think.

Could it be that Jason had been hiding before?

Although the 'old man' has no real contact with 'extraordinary power', Lauren Delder's dignity can be seen as being affected by 'extraordinary power', and it can affect a person with 'extraordinary power'

A person who is willing to follow you, even if it is because of special circumstances, must possess 'extraordinary power'.

What is meant by convincing people with their charisma?

It doesn't exist in the 'city that never sleeps'.

‘The City That Never Sleeps’ doesn’t believe in tears.

Just believe in fists and bullets.

Therefore, the 'old man' at this time was full of curiosity, but he did not ask too many questions until the matter was prioritized.

He believes that he will have plenty of time later.

therefore--

"Don't worry about me. I'm just here to join you. Everything is based on you."

The ‘old man’ said directly.

"Go to District 30."

Jason said this.

It’s not that he doesn’t believe the ‘old man’. Based on Jason’s understanding of the ‘old man’, the safe house the ‘old man’ mentioned is naturally extremely safe, but that was before.

now?

Sensing the approaching, malicious person, Jason casually dropped the head of Doberman, one of the "Six Evil Dogs".

The other party is not acting alone.

But with a group of people.

Like a ‘hound’ chasing its prey.

It is both for tracking prey and driving it away.

When a group of hounds are running in the jungle or on the grass, whether they are foxes or rabbits, they will flee in panic and return to the place where they think they are safe, and then they will be completely exposed.

He was picked up by Lianwo.

"You and the 'old man' go to Area 30 first."

"Open the door in half an hour."

After Jason finished speaking, he stepped back and blended into the shadows.

The 'old man' who saw this scene for the first time had shock in his eyes.

He had already guessed that Jason had mastered the 'extraordinary power', but the moment he saw it, he couldn't help but be shocked.

After all, there is always a difference between what is guessed and what is actually true.

Lauren Delder saw the expression on the 'old man'.

Just as he guessed, the 'old man' had been kept in the dark.

He was the first person to know that Jason had "supernatural power".

Thinking of this, Lauren Derde felt a sense of superiority inexplicably arise from the bottom of her heart.

"Jason is a very strong person who knows how to live a better life in the 'city that never sleeps'."

"He hides himself, hides in a safe place, and lives his own life."

"If it weren't for that bastard 'Jin', he would never have exposed himself."

After Lauren Delder opened the 'door' in Area 30, she led the old man straight through it. After the 'door' disappeared, she took the initiative to speak.

It would be too boring to sit there for half an hour.

Chatting is a good choice.

Not only can we understand each other, but we can also increase our feelings.

The 'old man' thinks so too.

Therefore, after Lauren Derde finished speaking, the 'old man' spoke immediately.

"Jason is usually very cautious and has not been exposed at all."

The ‘old man’ echoed.

But deep down in his heart, the 'old man' sighed.

He finally knew why his alarm never sounded when facing Jason.

Because it was impossible for Jason to have any ill intentions towards him.

Jason chose to hide under his wings.

When I think of Jason's confusion when I first met him, and how he always looked like he was studying hard and practicing constantly.

The ‘old man’ couldn’t help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

"Did you know? In order to be a good 'postman', Jason spends every day simulating how to fight back if he is attacked in the car. He also has fighting lessons and shooting lessons. I also arranged for people to teach him. He...see

Looks like a newbie.”

"Of course."

"That's Jason."

Lauren Delder said matter-of-factly.

In Lauren Delder's opinion, Jason like this is normal.

It is this seemingly ordinary, hidden behind-the-scenes style that makes Jason what he is today.

"Jason is strong."

"Stronger than anyone I've ever seen."

"and……"

"He should have unique insights into 'extraordinary power'."

Lauren Delder suddenly lowered her voice.

The ‘old man’ was stunned.

As one of the bosses of District 16, he knows far more than ordinary residents of the 'City that Never Sleeps'.

For example: Where should you go if you want to find the ‘supernatural power’ in the ‘City that Never Sleeps’.

Districts 1-15 of the ‘city that never sleeps’.

That's the so-called uptown area.

Only there can there be complete teachings on 'supernatural power' and 'mysterious knowledge'.

Could it be...

An idea appeared in the heart of the 'old man'.

He involuntarily raised his arm, stretched out his index finger, and pointed upward.

Lauren Delder blinked.

Suddenly there was an enlightenment.

No wonder Jason is so calm and strong.

It turned out to be from Shangcheng District.

Only in this way can he explain everything he saw.

"Phew, Jason is from Uptown?"

Lauren Delder murmured to herself.

"Most likely."

The ‘old man’ said.

“But why do people from uptown come to downtown?”

Lauren Delder couldn't help but asked.

Then, when these words were spoken, the former collaborators of the 'big man' felt embarrassed.

Especially when the old man showed a hopeless expression.

"Cough, cough."

"The uptown area of ​​the 'City that Never Sleeps' is also chaotic?"

Lauren Delder asked.

"Do you really think that the uptown area of ​​the 'City that Never Sleeps' is a paradise as advertised?"

"There may no longer be gun battles on the surface, but the killings behind the scenes are still there."

"There is an organization called the 'Law Enforcement Team' in Uptown. They serve the 'big shots' in Uptown, secretly collect opinions from Uptown residents, and at the same time, kill those who are disobedient."

The ‘old man’ was talking about some information he had collected about the upper town of the ‘Sleepless City’.

Hearing this description, Lauren Delder frowned.

“Isn’t this even less free than downtown?”

This former collaborator of the ‘big man’ couldn’t help but say.

"Then it depends on what you choose?"

"Relatively safe?"

"Or relative freedom?"

The 'old man' shrugged, then looked at the already closed 'door' and said slowly: "But I know how Jason chose."

"yes."

Lauren Delder nodded.

After that, the two continued to chat.

However, as time passed, the two of them became more and more absent-minded.

Lauren Delder counts the time silently based on her heartbeat and pulse.

The ‘old man’ is much simpler.

He has a watch.

Fully automatic mechanical watch, produced in zones 1-15.

It is rumored that it is polished by hand, and it also sells for a lot of money in areas 1-15.

The ‘old man’ also spent a lot of money to get it.

I always take good care of it.

Naturally, he wore it when he was on the run.

After all, compared to heavy gold bars, watches are easier to carry and at some point, easier to get rid of.

only……

The alarm sound, like tinnitus, began to sound incessantly.

Very weak.

Not strong.

It is the kind that does not threaten life safety for the time being.

At first, the 'old man' thought it was the danger coming from Area 30 itself - he had heard people talk about the danger in Area 30, and even sent someone to investigate out of curiosity.

Of course, it's the kind of investigation that doesn't involve in-depth investigation.

Just went to buy some news.

But just when he saw these messages, the alarm in his heart made him completely give up the subsequent in-depth investigation.

However, he remembered everything about Area 30.

To sum it up in one sentence, it is: an area of ​​post-war mutation.

Here, countless ghosts of those who died in battle linger on the battlefield.

even……

Not just people.

In such an environment, the dangers involved cannot be overstated.

So much so that the old men looked at each other at the very weak alarm.

However, as time went by, the 'old man' gradually realized that something was wrong.

Because when he heard the alarm sound in his heart and raised his head to look around, the alarm sound would disappear.

But when he lowered his head to look at the time on his watch, the faint alarm sound would appear.

The 'old man', who was not a fool, suddenly changed his expression.

Without any hesitation, the 'old man' took off his watch, picked up the stone beside him, and threw it straight at his arm.

Snap!

After a crisp sound, the luxury jewelry from areas 1-15 was shattered.

Gears and springs flew around.

The hands were bent as soon as the dial was hit.

However, everything under the dial also becomes clear.

A small, black thing appeared.

Lauren Delder's face changed drastically when she saw this thing smaller than a fingernail.

He whispered——

"Bullspot!"
