The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 839 Kill People Invisibly

In the quiet bamboo forest.novelbin

The bamboo leaves were rustling.

In silence, the bamboo leaves on the ground arched slightly and slowly moved forward.

And the target…was Bamboo Grove.

In the quiet and secluded bamboo forest, this scene was like a ghost.

Nobody noticed it.

When the slight arch was only 50 metres from Bamboo Grove, the arch abruptly stopped.

In the ground full of bamboo leaves, it was not obvious.

It was as if…everything had never happened.

Time passed.

For the entire day.

Jack stayed in the room and was savouring Tao Te Ching. For him, each savour gave him a unique

feeling and over time, reading Tao Te Ching in the leisure time had gradually become his habit.

Because of the sniping, Brent and Daisy also specifically changed the room for Jack.

The new room was not only able to greatly isolate the snooping from outside but its protective

measures were also rearranged in one day.

Although it could not completely block the thermal imager’s detection, it could attenuate and blur the

detection to the greatest extent.

‘Knock knock knock’.

The knocks sounded on the door.

Jack, who was indulging in reading Tao Te Ching, was pulled back to reality.

When he looked up at the door, Amber had already carefully opened the door.

“Honey, it’s getting dark, it’s time for dinner.”

“Alright, I’ll be right over.”

Jack put down Tao Te Ching, pushed the wheelchair and headed out.

In the dining room.

Daisy had already prepared a full table of food with an overflowing aroma. They were mouth-watering.

But after everyone was seated, they did not immediately move their chopsticks.

They were apparently waiting for something.

At the table, there was silence. The atmosphere was a bit odd.

After waiting for about ten minutes, Daisy suddenly stood up and turned around to go to the kitchen.

Very soon, she came out with a small iron cage.

There was a small white mouse inside the small iron cage. It was scurrying around in the small iron

cage.

“It’s okay, it’s fine to eat now.”

Daisy smiled.

Hearing this.

The atmosphere at the dining table suddenly became relaxed.

Jack first picked up his chopsticks and put a piece of fish into Amber’s bowl using the chopsticks. Then,

he smiled and joked at Mysterious Man.

“Senior, aren’t you a little too careful to do this. Before Daisy serves the food, every dish and even

water will be tested and analyzed with all kinds of instruments, is there really a need to get a small

white mouse to experiment again?”

Everyone looked at Mysterious Man in confusion.

Experimenting with a small white mouse was proposed by Mysterious Man in the afternoon all of a

sudden.

However, just like Jack, everyone could not understand the purpose that Mysterious Man wanted to do

so.

This was because with the advanced technology now, a variety of instruments that could analyse and

test the food was able to find out the material composition of the food very clearly, not to mention the

poison.

He did not believe the analysis and test result of these various sophisticated instruments and instead,

he even tested the food with a mouse before the meal.

To put such “ancestral” settings in a bad way, it was indeed as if to gild the lily, which is totally

unnecessary!

However.

Mysterious Man shook his head, “There are some things that can kill people but the instrument can’t

detect. Only after the food enters the stomach then we can determine whether the food is safe to be

eaten.”

Jack and the others were stunned.

“Let’s eat.”

Mysterious Man did not intend to explain in detail and directly picked up the chopsticks.

Jack and the others also did not insist to ask him and they were ready to pick up the chopsticks.

Everyone had already understood Mysterious Man’s personality well. Regarding what he refused to

say, even if they kept asking, they would definitely not get an answer.

Since Mysterious Man insisted and there was no harm anyway, they would not deny having one more

precautionary step.

However, when Amber was picking up the piece of fish in the bowl and the crowd was going to move

their chopsticks.

Out of the blue.

“Squeak…”

The small white mouse let out a mournful and miserable cry.

This sharp and ear-piercing scream was like a thunderbolt.

That made everyone’s face change instantaneously.

And Daisy, who turned around and walked towards the kitchen with the small iron cage in her hand,

also stopped abruptly at this moment and shouted.

“Don’t eat!”

Snap!

Jack reacted quickly. He took his chopsticks and directly hit the piece of fish that was about to be sent

into Amber’s mouth.

This scene was too sudden.

It scared Amber so much that her delicate body trembled and she was full of horror and panic.

It was lucky that this miserable cry was let out in time.

Just now, everyone solely took the chopsticks and because Amber had the piece of fish given by Jack,

her action was slightly faster.

But, she was still able to be stopped.

After knocking the piece of fish off Amber’s chopsticks, Jack could not bother to comfort Amber who

was shocked. He frowned tightly and looked at Daisy with a cold and stern expression.

Under everyone’s gaze.

Daisy slowly turned around.

At this time, Daisy’s face darkened and looked extremely gloomy.

She lowered her head and stared at the small iron cage.

And inside the small iron cage, the small white mouse that was still scurrying around just now had been

paralyzed in the small iron cage at this time. Its body was convulsing violently and it was constantly

spitting out froth. It was filled with agony.

Only within a few seconds.

The little white mouse stopped convulsing and became completely immobile.

The atmosphere inside the dining room instantly froze.

An invisible fear quietly overshadowed everyone.

Although the doors and windows were tightly closed, the crowd felt that the cold breeze of late autumn

had entered the dining room as their entire bodies felt cold.

“That, that was close…”

Mr. Ward’s voice broke the temporary dead silence in the restaurant.

Daisy said with a face full of fear and dismay, “I, I’ve already tested every ingredient, there is no toxin

present at all.”

“I’ve said, there are some things that can’t be detected, only when the food enters the stomach then we

can know if the food is poisonous!”

Mysterious Man’s voice was hoarse and extremely low.

Jack looked up suddenly, “What is it?”

Before that, he was still thinking that Mysterious Man’s action of testing the food with the small white

mouse before the meal was a little too much.

He also did not put what Mysterious Man said in his mind.

However, the scene in front of him refreshed his perception.

It also truly confirmed the words that Mysterious Man said before.

If there was no Mysterious Man’s such carefulness, perhaps…a few minutes later, everyone in the

scene would be like the small white mouse that was already immobile in the small iron cage.

Hearing this.

Mr. Ward, Brent, Daisy and even Amber, raised their heads to gaze at Mysterious Man.

“There are countless ways to kill and poison people. I can’t possibly know them all but I know it does

exist.”

Mysterious Man shook his head, “I know that you faced an assassination mission of Assassin Squad

back then and it was indeed enough to deal with the situation with only various instruments. But this

time, it’s the same as last time, yet different.”

“During the assassination mission of Assassin Squad, you face various assassins and even if one’s

power is strong, the limit is still there. While this time, you’re facing the major forces. Some forces exist

for years and exist even longer than the life of anyone here.”

Mysterious Man slowly put down his chopsticks and gave a sidelong glance at the dead small white

mouse inside the small iron cage.

He smiled calmly, “In other words, when killers kill you, they’re relying on their own power to kill you.

Whereas, for the major forces now, they are relying on their strong background which is figured out and

deduced by generations of people. They…are relying on their strong background to kill you,

understand?”

Depression surfaced in Jack’s face.

Mysterious Man’s words, like countless boulders, stuffed his chest cavity, making him suffocated for a

moment.

When Assassin Squad issued the assassination mission back then, what he faced was truly a top

assassin who always acted alone. These assassins’ skills were trained and accumulated after years of

experience.

Even Deadpool Mercenary also almost defeated all his army in TM Villa District.

But, was the power of Deadpool Mercenary eligible to be compared to the power of various major

forces that he was facing now?

A rag-tag team was like a pale of dirt scraps in front of a force that had existed firmly for hundred years.

It was really difficult to estimate how strong was the background of the forces that had developed well

for hundred years and even longer.

Even the assassination techniques were also selected among the good ones to get the best by

generations of people so that they could be inherited step by step.

Since it had such a strong background, was it strange and unexpected that it could kill people invisibly?

However.

At this moment.

Snap!

Mysterious Man suddenly lit a cigarette, lazily leaned back in his chair, raised his hand and rubbed his

chin.

When he was exhaling the smoke, he slowly turned his head to look outside.

“Since the danger has arrived, then the killer…should also have arrived long ago, right?”
