Chapter 178: {PS-Bonus Chapter} The Perpetrator
"Are you sure about that?" Angela asked with a hint of doubt in her voice.
"Of course I-I'm…speaking the truth. He is right-" Lucas responded. But he was forced to stop the moment that he realized that Jaden was not there, and neither was Scarlet's Ferrari f8.
While enduring the pain, he did not notice Jaden and Scarlet had already left. The only thing that he had noticed was when the police officer came over.
As for the revving of the engine, he had thought that simply because the police was here, it was impossible for Jaden to leave. But since he was not paying much attention to what was happening around him, he had failed to notice that Jaden had left.
Angela frowned. Even though it was true that Jaden had already left, from the fact that Lucas was pointing towards the direction that the car had been, it was clear that he was referring to Jaden.
Now, she wondered what kind of conflict had come up within the group to the extent that Jaden would end up breaking these guy's leg. Nonetheless, she decided to focus on the issue at hand.
She had to first make sure that this guy was attended to, before getting his statement on the issue. Afterwards, she would go ahead to solve the matter.
….
A Ferrari f8 spider was speeding along the road, while overtaking left and right. All the traffic lights were ignored, and the car kept on speeding, completely ignoring the cursing by the drivers on the road.
A few people had managed to record what was happening, but the video was only a few seconds long. After all, by the time that they took out their phones, to the time that the car disappeared into the distance, it was just less than 10 seconds.
Of course, only a few of those that had their phones out were the ones that had managed to record something. As for the rest, by the time that they wanted to record the way that the car was being driven, the car had already disappeared into the distance.
Jaden did not care much about what was going on, on the road. Instead, he simply focused on driving the car towards the destination. At the same time, he ignored the police cars that were chasing after him.
With his driving skills, it was impossible for the police to be able to catch up to him. The only thing that they could do was to intercept him, but when he realized that, he was using the long route, while taking unnecessary turns, in order to make sure that he would not be predicted where he was going to.
Finally, about 20 minutes later, he had already crossed towards the other end of the city, and was approaching the outskirts. He had only gone towards the center of the city simply because he wanted to drop Scarlet there.
Of course, it was impossible for him to take Scarlet with him. Considering that the other party threatened that they would kill the old man, it was clear that they did not have good intentions.
Even though there was a possibility that a mission might be generated by the system, Jaden did not want to risk Scarlet's life. He was already going to save one life, so, he did not dare to put another one in danger.
He continued driving, and about 5 minutes later, he finally arrived in an area that was completely abandoned. Only a few cars used this road, and the number of people that could be found in this area was very low.
This could be said to be the suburbs of Faru city. There were several abandoned buildings. These buildings had just been abandoned recently, as there was a huge government project that was supposed to be carried out on this piece of land.

Looking at the location, Jaden immediately drove towards one of the building in the area. It was an apartment block possessing four floors.
When Jaden got here, he realized that there was nobody around. Still, he was extremely cautious. After getting out of the car, he looked around, surveying his surrounding area.
Afterwards, he began walking towards the building. In the location that had been shared to him, the pin location fell on this building.
The moment that Jaden reached the entrance of the building, he finally realized that the door was opened. And inside the building, there was a group of people that seemed to be waiting for him.
"Oh, it seems that you have already arrived. The boss was already getting a little impatient." One of them, having a scar on his left arm, suddenly took a step forward and spoke up.
Jaden squinted his eyes as he looked at this person. Nonetheless, he did not act, and neither did he say anything. Instead, he simply entered into the building, while looking around.
The first thing that he had to do was to ensure the safety of the old man. And after he could guarantee that the old man was safe, that was the time that Jaden would make sure that all of them paid what they had done.
Thinking of that, Jaden simply followed one of them that had taken the initiative to lead the way. They used the stairs, and finally, they arrived at the top floor of the building.
While coming up, Jaden had noticed that there was a large number of people within this building. According to his estimation, the number should be about 50, and that was just what he had seen. Since they had not entered any room, perhaps there were more people inside.
Despite all that, there was one thing that was common among all of them, none of the people that he saw looked like good people. Instead, they possessed crooked expressions, with tattoos and scars on their bodies.
Additionally, the way that they were looking at him, it was clear that if he did something, they would not hesitate to attack him. Moreover, each and every one of them was carrying a weapon, some were carrying knives, while others carried blunt weapons.
Jaden did not care much about the weapons that they were having. As long as it was not a gun, there was nothing to be afraid. With his current physique, it was not a problem for him to be able to deal with all these people.
But if a gun was involved in this matter, then things would be completely different. He might be strong, but he was not strong enough to be able to resist a bullet.
The moment that they got on the top floor, Jaden realized that there were only two rooms on this floor. One on the left and the other on the right side of the corridor.
The one that was leading the way immediately entered the one on the left. Jaden followed without hesitation, nonetheless, his muscles were tensed. In case of anything, he would be able to react.
After he entered the room, he realized that it was quite well furnished. Even though this building looked a little old, it was not that bad. At least, it was better than the one that he was living in before.
Additionally, the furniture inside looked quite new, and well maintained. There was nothing much within this big room, other than the living room having a few couches and a coffee table. It seemed that the rest of the things within this room had been taken away.
Currently, on one of the couches, there was a man that Jaden recognized. It was none other than second tiger. Currently, second tiger was seated there, with an indifferent expression on his face.
He did not react that much when he saw Jaden coming over. Instead, he looked completely calm in this situation. It was as if he had not noticed Jaden at all.
Jaden realized that in this room, other than himself, second tiger, and the man who had led him here, there was nobody else. As for the rest of the people within the building, they all stayed out, and behind him, Jaden could see that many of them had already blocked the entrance.
It was clear that they were intending to make sure that Jaden did not leave this place today. Still, Jaden did not have the intention of leaving, unless he had dealt with the issue that brought him here.
Jaden did not say anything, and instead, he approached second tiger. He only stopped about one meter away from him, and looked at the man who was still ignoring his presence.
The tension suddenly erupted between the two of them, when second tiger turned to look at Jaden. At this moment, there was a flash of anger in his eyes, combined with a murderous intent.
"Where is the old man?" Jaden asked. He did not care much about talking nonsense with second tiger. Right now, he had to ensure that the old man was safe first.
In case they had done something to the old man, Jaden would definitely make them pay a heavy price. But even if they had not done anything to the old man yet, they would still pay for it, as they had kidnapped the old man.
Upon hearing Jaden's question, second tiger simply waved his hand. Immediately, the person that had led Jaden to the room immediately went towards one of the two bedrooms of the apartment.
A little while later, he came back with an old man. The old man was currently having a black cloth covering his eyes, and his hands were tied behind his back.
When Jaden looked at the condition of the old man, he immediately felt anger surging in his heart. At this moment, he had already sentenced second tiger and his group.
