CHAPTER XXXVII

Early the next morning,

The death of Scout Sean last night had caused so much grief for the entire task force that they couldn't sleep for a long time. It wasn't until three or four o'clock in the morning that the task force had just fallen asleep......

"Get up! Get up! ”

Not long after Captain Parker closed his eyes, the blonde man's hurried voice came to his ears.

"Quick! Get up! ”

At the blonde man's urging, the task force reluctantly opened their sleepy eyes.

"Boys, it's time for us to go!"

At this time, "Scarface" Stoke walked out of the back room and said while clapping his hands.

“……”

After last night's events, the task force hated Stoke to the extreme. So after Stoke finished speaking, no one was willing to respond.

Stoke also knew that the task force hated him, but he didn't care.

"Let's go in half an hour, hurry up and get ready!"

Stoke spoke to his blonde man, and forced Corey to sit next to him.

"Mr. Corey, I'm sorry! I can only wronged you to go with us! ”

Stoke sat honestly next to Corey and behaved very "respectfully".

"Oh...... It's okay. ”

Although Corey didn't know Stoker's identity, the person in front of him was clearly not a good person. He didn't want to go head-to-head with Stoker, so he had to say a kind word.

"Don't be nervous, let's ......"

Stoke laughed a little and was about to continue saying something. Captain Parker came up to Stoke and interrupted him.

"You're going to have to give me and my teammates a few guns, right?"

Parker grimaced and made his request to Stoker.

“……”

Stoke remained smiling and didn't speak, but the blonde man on the side spoke first.

"Stop dreaming!"

The blonde retorted directly, his words full of sarcasm.

"No, give each of them a pistol!"

Stoke raised his right hand to signal the blonde man to shut up, and unexpectedly agreed to Parker's request.

"The gun is given to you, but please don't do anything irrational!"

Stoke looked Parker in the eye, silently threatening.

“…… Got it! ”

Parker didn't speak at first, then whispered.

……

"Captain! We can't just give in! ”

The vice-captain found a place where no one was and whispered to Parker.

"Be quiet!"

Captain Parker looked around cautiously, lest the conversation between them would be heard.

"I've wanted to kill them for a long time, but Corey is still in their hands, so I can't do it!"

Parker looked at Corey, who was sitting next to Stoker, and said worriedly.

"Alas......"

The vice-captain scratched his head in remorse and ended his discussion with Parker.

Parker's eyes didn't take away from Corey, staring at him thoughtfully......

"Hey! b

o! Rock Town is ahead! ”

"Talk," Jim said, pointing ahead and tugging at Henry's sleeve.

"I'm not blind yet!"

Henry took Jim's hand away and rolled his eyes.

"Look! Someone is out! ”

Henry and Jim crouched in a hidden place, observing the situation in Locketown. At this moment, Stoker and his men and task force prepared to get into the car and set off. This strange scene was seen by the two of them.

"Huh! The person at the front looks so familiar! ”

Henry had been in contact with Scout Sean before, and he knew what the task force was like. However, in addition to the members of the task force, there were a number of unidentified persons who joined the task force.

While Henry was guessing the identities of the group, Jim on the side was "surprisingly surprised".

"You know them?"

Henry looked at Jim in surprise, hoping to learn their identities through him.

"It's a bit far away and can't see clearly. But much like I know that guy, "Scarface"! ”

Jim narrowed his eyes, scrutinizing Stoker.

"Scarface?"

It was the first time Henry had heard the name, and it was more of a nickname than a name.

"Well, that's his nickname! His real name is Stoker! He's a real danger! ”

Jim tells Henry about Stoker and says that he is very dangerous.

"How do you know?"

Henry wondered how Jim knew these things, so he asked.

"I'm ashamed...... He's my big brother, and he's done a lot of bad things with him......"

Jim smiled awkwardly and talked about his past.

"Oh?"

Henry was intrigued when he heard this, there must be a story in this.

"That was a few years ago...... I was ignorant at the time, so I followed Stoke in a daze. Later, he helped him do some illegal deeds and became his confidant. Then the police arrested me, and I didn't confess to him after I was arrested......"

Jim's mind went back a few years, and the past was vivid.

"After I got out of prison, Stoke gave me a sum of money as compensation, which I didn't collect. He said he owed me a favor and would not treat me badly......"

"And then?"

"Later, I quit the organization under the pretense of being unwell. Then I never saw Stoke again...... What are you looking at me like this, what I say is true! ”

"I didn't doubt you, what are you nervous about?"

"I think you're just doubting me!"

“……”

After listening to Jim's story, Henry fell into deep thought......

If Jim's words are true, the situation for the task force is not optimistic. It seems that Parker and the others should have been "hijacked" by Stoker, and Scout Sean did not appear. He must have met with an accident, but Corey is not in any danger.

"What should I do?"

Henry analyzed the current situation, and his mind was a mess.

While Henry was distressed, he suddenly thought of Jim. You can use Jim's relationship with Stoke to make some articles.

"Jim!"

Thinking of this, Henry immediately took action.

"What's wrong?"

Jim didn't know what Henry was calling him about, and replied simply.

"I want you to come back to Stoke......"

"Back to him? What to do when you go back? ”

"Give me an internal response!"

"I'm not going! I just said that Stoke is dangerous! ”

"With your relationship with him, there will be no danger!"

"I'm confused! Be clear! ”

"Alas...... Here you go! ”

Henry looked helplessly at the distracted Jim and motioned for him to stick his ears over.

Jim complied and leaned his head over. Henry said a few words in Jim's ear, and after saying that, he looked at Jim seriously.

"That's right...... But I'm not sure if he still believes me! ”

Jim voiced his concerns, after all, it had been a while since he left Stoker.

"So you have to regain his trust and don't come back anytime soon!"

"And how long do I have to stay?"

"When will you rescue Corey and wipe out all the Stokers, you can come back!"

"Aren't you afraid that I won't come back?"

"I'm sure you won't!"

“…… Well, since that's the case...... I'll just go for it! ”

"Hmmm! Stay safe! ”

"Good ......"

Henry suddenly felt a little sorry for Jim, and patted Jim on the back with his right hand.

Jim turned to look at Henry, wondering how he could regain Stoker's trust......
