The Demon's Menu-Chapter 1482: Not Bad Luck!

After the agreed half hour, Lauren Delder opened the ‘door’ of Area 30.

Outside the door, Jason stood. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

His aura was menacing, and the scent of blood was strong. Just standing there was enough to instill fear.

How many people did he kill?

No less than 20.

Before becoming an ‘important figure’ collaborator, Lauren Delder had been living off the streets, so naturally, he wasn’t naive. Just a glance, and he had a rough idea.

However, Lauren Delder was not afraid.

As Jason’s ally, Lauren Delder couldn’t wish for Jason to be stronger.

Then, Lauren Delder stepped aside to make way.

Jason stepped in.

The recent battle was even simpler than Jason had imagined.

The team led by Doberman, one of ‘Jing’s six evil dogs,’ was elite enough.

Facing the various forces in the Ring City of Nightless City’s Lower City District, they wouldn’t be at a disadvantage.

Especially since the 25 people were divided into five squads, well-trained and superbly equipped, each squad had someone with a submachine gun and grenades.

However, for someone like Jason now, these five squads really didn’t pose a challenge anymore.

No special tactics.

Just purely stealth up close, then launch an assault.

In less than 5 minutes, the battle was over.

Afterwards, Jason thoroughly cleaned the battlefield.

The firearms and ammunition were all hidden in a ruin.

The food and medicine those people carried were kept on him.

"Unexpected surprise.”

Jason tossed a canvas bag to the ‘old man’ and said with a smile.

"Yes, yes indeed.”

The ‘old man’ nodded, with a bit of unease and embarrassment on his face.

Such an obvious expression naturally couldn’t escape Jason’s eyes.

"What’s wrong?”

Jason asked.

The ‘old man’s’ face immediately became even more embarrassed.

However, the ‘old man’ did not hide anything.

As one of the former leaders of Area 16, the ‘old man’ knew the consequences of hiding something at this moment.

Not only would the three of them face devastating blows.

It might even create a rift in his relationship with Jason.

The former, the ‘old man’ could accept.

The latter?

The ‘old man’ could not accept it at all.

So, the ‘old man’ confessed honestly.

"There is a bug in my watch — This watch, I bought it at a high price, using some connections, it’s an Uptown luxury item, but I never thought there would be a bug in it.”

"I never expected it to be ‘Jing’s’ doing.”

"At that time, many bosses purchased it, unwittingly stepping into the trap set by ‘Jing’. Probably when organizing the meeting initially, ‘Jing’ purposefully brought a gold watch, precisely for this moment.”

"No wonder he could lock onto me so quickly.”

Saying this, the ‘old man’ sighed and looked up at Jason.

At this time, Jason still had no expression on his face.

This made the ‘old man’s’ heart even more uneasy.

All the fault was his.

Any punishment, he must accept.

As for blaming ‘Jing”s cunning?

The ‘old man’ couldn’t do something like ‘it’s the enemy being too strong that I failed, it’s not my fault.’

A failure is a failure.

Being calculated was being calculated.

No need for excuses.

"What did you talk about?”

To the ‘old man’s’ surprise, Jason asked very calmly.

The ‘old man’ immediately recounted the conversation.

"Mm.”

Jason nodded, turned, and left.

The ‘old man’ was stunned.

No punishment at all, not even a scolding?

In fact, the old man was already prepared to pay the price.

This was the awareness he had as one of the former leaders of Area 16.

But what lay before him was completely different from what he had imagined.

"Jason?”

The ‘old man’ couldn’t help but call out.

"Let’s go, find the ‘safe house’ Lauren mentioned as soon as possible, we need to recuperate.”

Jason said without even turning his head.

The ‘old man’ was stunned.

Lauren Delder was also stunned.

This was not the scenario they had imagined.

They had long been accustomed to the ways of ‘Nightless City.’

At this time, even if Jason had chopped off one of the ‘old man’s’ arms, it would be justified. Even more extreme, if he demanded a life, others wouldn’t say anything.

But such a nonchalant way of handling it…

"Th-thank you.”

The ‘old man’ stammered his gratitude.

He simply believed that Jason was thanking him for taking care of him over the past year.

Gratitude in ‘Nightless City’ is indeed rare.

So rare, it’s exceptional.

And because it’s exceptional, it’s even more shocking.

It’s even more heart-touching.

The old man subtly wiped the corner of his eyes and quickly followed.

Lauren Delder only just came to his senses.

He immediately picked up his pace, walked ahead, and said in an unprecedentedly relaxed tone.

"I’ll lead the way.”

At this moment, Lauren Delder let go of the last bit of worry in his heart.

As Jason’s ally, Lauren Delder worried most that Jason would be a brutal guy.

There were just too many of those guys in ‘Nightless City.’

The pleasure of sadism always ensnared a bunch of bastards.

Very naturally, it also affected those around.

Just like certain white powders.

Once tried.

There’s no turning back.

The best way to refuse temptation is to stay away from temptation.

Not to face temptation and then reject it through testing yourself.
