The fragrance did not emanate from Duke. But it lingered nonetheless. It could only be explained by Duke having spent a long time with a ‘Harken’. Jason guessed the man’s professional system at the bottom of his heart, yet another thing had become certain. The man harbored ill intentions! ‘Demons’ were not common monsters. At last night’s ‘Secret Gathering’, Jason hadn’t smelled the scent of ‘demon’ level food on anyone. Moreover, they still haven’t given up by now. The purpose was simply to make it look like an ‘accidental abduction.’ They absolutely wouldn’t expose themselves. But to make their story hold water, they would certainly look for a ‘scapegoat’! Who could be a more suitable scapegoat than Taniel? Jason was even certain that at this moment, Taniel must have been knocked out and captured by them, hidden somewhere nearby. Refraining from looking around to investigate, Jason followed their train of conversation and asked, “What danger are you referring to?” Duke’s face turned grave as he replied word by word. “A conspiracy covers the whole of Lorde.” “Your master is aware of it.” “Sir Beta is also in the know.” “We are aware as well.” At this point, the other party sighed deeply. “Inadvertently, you have stumbled into this and not only disrupted our arrangement!” “But you have also dragged yourself into the most dangerous situation.” “Therefore, we needed to divert your attention.” “Due to my negligence, it failed.” “I had no choice but to initiate a fallback plan, meet with you, inform you of some matters, and hope to gain your cooperation.” The other party looked up earnestly, their eyes fixed on Jason. Jason displayed just the right amount of hesitation. Seeing this hesitation, the other party immediately pressed on. “Perhaps you were fortunate to ingest the ‘Hulk Silver Potion’ and acquired the ‘immortal’ trait.” “But there are things that are far more terrifying than death.” “Besides, your ‘immortality’ comes at a cost, doesn’t it?” Facing the other person’s confident demeanor, Jason fell silent for a moment. Then, he let out a slight sigh. He seemed to be persuaded. “What kind of cooperation?” “We will create an accident.” “To make you disappear for a while.” “It won’t have any adverse effects on you. You will just enter a completely safe place according to our plans, and once this conspiracy ends, you will be able to see the light of day again. Moreover, we will offer you some compensation.” “Advancement in the Night Watcher!” As Duke spoke, he pulled out a piece of parchment from the pocket of his coat, gestured with it in front of Jason, and then put it back into his pocket. “We will hand this over to you afterward.” “Although your master will teach you these things, you wouldn’t mind getting a head start, right?” Watching Jason involuntarily lean forward, Duke said with a smile. By this time, Duke was certain that the ‘Night Watcher’ in front of him would fall for it. The most direct benefit is the most heart-stirring. Perhaps the ‘Night Watcher’ doesn’t care about Gold Crooks. But when it comes to the advancement of his own profession, even a ‘Night Watcher’ cannot remain indifferent. Moreover, given his current identity, what he was saying was indeed true; he really did receive a ‘help’ order. Accidents are everywhere! Who would’ve known that Taniel was in cahoots with ‘Shepherd’? The ‘Night Watcher’ Jason didn’t guard against the other, and was directly anesthetized and taken away by them. Though he killed Taniel, he failed to catch up with the other’s accomplices, resulting in the abduction of ‘Night Watcher’ Jason. After evaluating his own plan, Duke inevitably thought of Taniel. Making me recommend the ‘Starry Sky’ restaurant’s ‘Gazing at the Stars’! Even though he was about to finish off Taniel, Duke couldn’t help but curse him in his mind. Who knows what he went through? A date that should have been lovely was ruined under the gazes of a bunch of dead fish. Under the curse of the dead fish eyes, there was no salvaging the situation with that lady! Cursing Taniel again, Duke strived to maintain his smile. “Do you have any other questions?” Having got the answers he wanted and an unexpected gain, Jason shook his head quite definitively. “If not, please get out of the car and come with me.” As Duke spoke, he opened the car door and was about to step out.
