Captulo 1503: Chapter 24: Confrontation!
Jason?!!
Everyone present was stunned.
Before last night, Jason was just a nobody, but now his fa rivals that of a ‘big shot’.
He’s almost universally known.
Therefore, when it was confird that the corpse was Jason’s, everyone around beca restless.
Especially when facing the ‘old man’ dragging Jason, they were even more nacing.
Faced with such hostility, the ‘old man’ remained fearless.
He glanced around, the corner of his mouth curving into a smile.
Finally, his gaze settled on Gao Jiasuo.
"I’ve co to claim my reward.”
The ‘old man’ said.
Claim reward?
Gao Jiasuo was taken aback.
This ‘one of Jing’s six hounds’ finally realized.
Then——
"Hahaha!”
Maniacal laughter!
Explosive laughter!
It was entirely heartfelt laughter!
"Previously, they said you were a different kind of guy.”
"Now?”
"Aren’t you the sa?”
"We have been the sa from the beginning.”
Gao Jiasuo said between his laughter.
His gaze fixed on the ‘old man’.
The ‘old man’ responded calmly.
As if what Gao Jiasuo said was true.
And the people around looked at the ‘old man’ with envy, jealousy, hatred, mixed with greed and resentnt.
They were making decisions.
Now wasn’t the ti to act, but what about later?
Each one was filled with malice.
"Only one?”
"If it’s only one, the boss’s reward will be halved.”
Gao Jiasuo approached, scrutinizing Jason.
At this mont, Jason had a dagger stuck in his chest. Gao Jiasuo used his foot to lift Jason’s body and imdiately saw the wound on Jason’s back, which had long soaked his clothes in red. 𝘳äΝΟᛒƐṥ
Ambushed from behind, struck down with one deadly blow, followed by another stab in the chest.
Jason never realized.
Clearly, Jason believed in this ‘old man’.
But it cost him his life.
Imagining such a scene in his mind, Gao Jiasuo couldn’t help but say.
"Brutal.”
"This guy never thought you’d strike until his death, right?”
Though posed as a question, it was mostly a judgnt.
The ‘old man’ chuckled.
He didn’t answer this question but addressed the previous one.
"Of course, there are two; I can only bring one, the other one’s body is hidden sowhere—I hope to first receive my current due, then continue with the rest of the deal.”
"No problem, I’ll report to the boss.”
Gao Jiasuo spoke and walked toward a nearby tent.
As he entered the tent, Gao Jiasuo’s gaze turned grim.
Unexpected changes had arisen.
He had to contact his boss.
The current situation was beyond his decision-making ability.
"Inform the boss about the situation here as quickly as possible.”
Gao Jiasuo instructed his n.
anwhile, cursing in his heart.
Damn Zone 29.
If this were Zone 16, or 17, 18, even before Zone 20, a phone call would resolve the problem without hassle.
But now it requires manual intervention.
More importantly, with the ‘old man’ bringing Jason’s body, the gate from Zone 29 to Zone 30 can’t be opened anymore.
The boss’s directive was to ‘go to Zone 30 to find Jason and Lauren Delder’, but now both were killed by the ‘old man’, how could they proceed to Zone 30?
Things are going south!
Gao Jiasuo thought, his brow furrowing.
He had no idea what the boss intended for a group to do in Zone 30.
Finding Jason and Lauren Delder was true.
That much he could be sure of.
But there must be sothing he wasn’t aware of.
Otherwise, given the boss’s style, it wouldn’t be so high-profile.
Similarly, since things were approached so grandiosely, they absolutely can’t be disrupted.
If disrupted.
He, as the person in charge, would face dire consequences.
The ‘Six Hounds’ is rely a title, it can be inherited, but it’s not permanent.
He’d held this title for less than a year.
He certainly didn’t want to be thrown into the sewage or the canned factory this quickly.
"Could it be… did Casro notice sothing was wrong and ran first?”
Gao Jiasuo suddenly thought.
Then, this ‘one of the six hounds’ furiously punched the air.
He decided he’d strongly report the situation to the boss.
After the boss’s n brought Casro back, he’d make sure to tornt him thoroughly.
At least make him watch as most of his body got sent into the at grinder.
Otherwise, he couldn’t swallow this grievance.
But that was a matter for later.
Now?
How to handle the old man?
As Gao Jiasuo contemplated, a malicious smile appeared on his face.
This wasn’t too difficult.
Speed was essential, and enough.
Of course, a good reputation was needed.
And…
An audacious person.
In ‘Nightless City’, there’s no shortage of daredevils.
Thinking of this, Gao Jiasuo instructed his n nearby.
"Bring the six bosses in.”
"Tell them I have sothing to discuss.”
The subordinate obeyed, and monts later the six bosses of Zone 29 walked into the tent, each with a displeased expression.
How could they possibly be happy?
The ‘Extraordinary Power’ which was within reach was now lost.
Anyone would struggle with such a disappointnt.
Especially these six bosses of Zone 29.
Joseph, boss of the ‘Scorching Skeleton’, at this mont appeared grim, with bloodshot eyes, looking like soone ready to devour, even bosses of Zone 29 kept their distance from him, fearing collateral damage.
