Chapter 1746: Simon Escapes, and Haley’s “New Life”
Luke smiled and gripped Haley’s arms. “Congratulations, you got it. Here’s your prize.”
Haley looked at her trapped arms, one of which had a small paralysis dart in it.
Stunned for a mont, her eyes gradually turned hazy. “What’s this?”
Luke threw her onto the couch with a smile. “Try guessing again. If you’re right, I can give you another one.”
As he spoke, he threw out a second paralysis dart, which hit “Simon” a few ters away.
Different from his calm appearance, Luke was feeling extrely puzzled. His powerful ntal Perception was focused on the couple in the room.
After asking the question, Haley succumbed to the drug. She closed her eyes and fell completely unconscious.
Luke, however, frowned at the system notification.
Sure enough, the system didn’t give him a notification that he had defeated Haley, but that he had successfully rescued her.
He threw her and “Simon” into Space 2 without hesitation, but there were still no new notifications.
Luke opened the door and left. At the sa ti, he took out Tony’s ntal probe from his inventory.
After modifications, it looked like a phone.
After adjusting it to a maximum detection range of 500 ters, he indeed found an abnormal red dot 300 ters away.
Luke didn’t rush over imdiately. Instead, he chose the option on the ntal probe’s screen to record the ntal fluctuations.
A small percentage bar appeared at the top of the screen, which slowly increased from 1% to 5%.
At the sa ti, a man 300 ters away opened his eyes in surprise. “What ability is that? It seems to be… testing ?”
His calm face turned gloomy. This wasn’t good.
He, who should have been invincible, seed to have encountered an opponent who could counter him.
Thinking that, his eyes rolled back and he fell back onto the bed.
The man’s wife was still sound asleep and didn’t notice her husband mumbling to himself in the middle of the night.
On Luke’s side, the red dot on the screen suddenly disappeared, and the progress bar stopped moving.
He raised an eyebrow and walked back into the house.
Several seconds later, he turned invisible and drifted north toward Tijuana.
In the next few minutes, looking at the red dots that disappeared from ti to ti on the ntal probe and the progress bar which struggled to climb to 6%, Luke had a deep understanding of how difficult this opponent was.
Also, he knew that it would be hard to catch this “Simon,” since up ahead was bustling Tijuana.
Compared with the narrow strip of seaside villas that went from north to south, Tijuana was like a huge pancake full of people.
Once there, this strange “Simon” could easily leave the range of the ntal probe and even enter San Diego in Arica.
The national border made no difference to Simon.
Sure enough, after the red dot which represented Simon entered Tijuana, it quickly disappeared.
Facing the resplendent night view and the wild partying in Tijuana, Luke sighed helplessly. After sending Selina a ssage to say that the case was closed for now, he resigned himself to wandering the city.
It was a toss-up whether or not Simon would be flustered or discouraged, and maybe refuse to leave the city.
If that was the case, there might still be a chance to catch the other party.
…
Haley woke up and looked at her unfamiliar environnt.
After a long while, she finally rembered what happened in the last few days.
Her face flickered with various emotions for a long mont before she ca back to herself and began to observe her environnt.
This was the sa seaside villa from last night.
Her purse was in the room. There was so cash as well as tissues and sunblock in it.
She didn’t have a wallet, a passport, or even a phone.
She hadn’t needed them when she was with Simon. Naturally, he had no interest in these things.
He had only needed to control a tycoon and have the man take a private plane to San Diego that very night.
He then controlled a mber of the coast guard, and they easily arrived in Tijuana by boat.
Naturally, the owner of this villa was a random person.
Then, they settled here for the ti being.
They occasionally went shopping or ate out in Tijuana every now and then, but Simon spent most of the ti tinkering with Haley as his test subject.
In Simon’s words, since she wanted to study him and really wanted to be involved in the research, then he would give her everything.
This wasn’t revenge, but sharing the “blessing.”
That was because Simon really enjoyed being studied.
Recalling the various strange psychological tests, Haley couldn’t help but shiver.
What was scarier was that she feared Simon, but didn’t hate him.
To be precise, she had already started to worship this demonic man.
As a talented psychiatrist, Haley knew that there was sothing wrong with her own ntal state.
But she also knew that she couldn’t and didn’t want to fix the problem.
For the current her, these ntal issues weren’t torture, but the release of a suppressed self from the depths of her heart.
It was also the reason why her attitude toward Simon had changed so quickly.
Simon hadn’t created a brand new ‘Haley’; he had just destroyed the fetters of ordinary society so that she was no longer restrained by moral chains.
So, even though she was free, she didn’t call Margaret right away.
She used to be very protective of Margaret. Thinking about it now, it couldn’t be said to be a joke, but it was indeed unnecessary.
However, when she thought of her simple-minded sister, she couldn’t help but think that she should let her know, in case she ca looking for her. That would be troubleso.
So, she drove to Tijuana that night and easily took a phone off of a young Arican. She went online and left a video ssage for Margaret.
Then, she quietly returned to the seaside villa and stayed in hiding.
She would wait for Simon here. Although it was unlikely that he would co back, Haley would still be patient for a month.
That was because the Clown was probably watching her as well.
Haley had thought of this long ago. It didn’t make sense for the Clown to ignore her otherwise.
Simon’s conversation with the Clown that night had turned this into a ga.
Currently, they were the only two main characters in this ga. She was just a “tool.”
But Haley wasn’t discouraged.
Perhaps one day, she would go from being a pawn to a player, and the three of them would be able to play this dangerous and interesting ga together!
Thinking that, Haley couldn’t suppress the excitent in her heart as she cheered for her new life.
She couldn’t help but get up. Without turning on the lights, she walked out to the seaside patio. She licked her red lips, her heart burning.
Haley picked up her pace as she walked down the steps. In the end, she tore off her nightgown and jumped into the ocean.
