Felicity’s expression turned sour. She had been worried about Ken’s younger brother getting into troublest time and so asked him to inform his brother not to alert the enemy.
“My girlfriend works at that bar. I can ask her!”
“Okay, thank you.”
Felicity ended the call. The taxi driver nced up at the rearview
mirror at the same time as Jaxon did. Their gazes met. The driver
immediately lowered his head. Jaxon closed his eyes again.
Three minutester, Homer called again and informed Felicity that
Lindon had not been to that bar for several days. The news
discouraged her.
“Looks like we’ll be returning empty-handed tonight!”
At that moment, her phone vibrated again. It was Homer. Felicity
answered immediately.
“Homer…”
“Miss Felicity, if I help you catch Lindon, can you help me get a
permanent position?”
“Yes, of course!”
“Okay, my girlfriend just told me that Lindon has been frequenting Whitten Countytely.”
“Whitten County?”
“Yeah, there are many red-light districts there, and Lindon can’t
control himself.”
Homer seemed to know Lindon quite well.
“Okay, I’ll go to Whitten County and wait for you!”
“Have hime pick us up,” Jaxon interjected.
Felicity looked at Jaxon with confusion. The taxi driver in front smiled and said, “I know the way to Whitten County very well. I can take you
there!”
Felicity immediately said, “No need, just pull over!” Then, she said to
Homer on the phone, “You cane over now.”
Looking around, Felicity saw a gas station ahead and added, “Pick me up from the gas station in the north of the city.”
The taxi driver pulled over to the side of the road. Felicity was about to give him money when she suddenly heard Jaxon’s voice in her
mind. “This person might be from the Green Bamboo Society. It’s
likely he has been listening in on your conversation.”
Felicity turned to look at Jaxon, but Jaxon did not say anything. H
blinked, and Felicity heard the voice in her mind again. “I’m talking to
you telepathically.”
Felicity concealed her shock and took out a hundred-dor bill before handing it to the taxi driver. Just as the driver was about to reach out and take the money, however, she grabbed his wrist and pulled him
out the door.
The driver’s face changed drastically. “W-What are you doing?” he
demanded while reaching his hand behind him.
A gun!
Felicity’s pupils narrowed. Before she could react, the driver raised his
hand and pulled the trigger.
Jaxon swiftly moved in front of her. The bullet stopped just one
centimeter in front of his eyes.
The driver looked as if he had seen a ghost and tried to run away.
However, Jaxon reached out and pulled him back. “The Light guides.
Please stay, sir,” he said calmly.
Felicity regained her senses and snatched the gun from the driver’s hand before pointing the barrel to his forehead. “Get down on the
ground with your hands on your head, or I’ll shoot!”
The driver immediatelyy down on the ground, holding his head in
his hands.
Before long, a Bentley stopped by the roadside. A young man with a
crew cut stepped out. “Hello, Miss Felicity. I’m Homer,” he said.N?velD(ram)a.?rg owns this content.
Felicity nodded. “Contact the patrol team and have this man taken
away,” she instructed.
Homer immediately fished out his walkie-talkie and contacted the
patrol team.
