JOHN THE MERCENARY

CHAPTER 073 - SELF DATA FILE.

“Will but, you can't be alone.”

Anna looked at John when she heard him say that she could no longer be alone.

“When you free yourself from those around you, your life may be threatened because of it.”

“Do you know why you have been able to live to this day? That's because Agnes didn't need to be wary of you back then.”

“However, the situation has changed now. Now, you're Agnes' biggest weakness.”

“You can even destroy his world with just one word.”

Anna simply nodded and began to understand what John meant to her.

“He may be nice to you now, but when people aren't interested in you, that moment will be used by Agnes to eliminate you.”

“Then what if I told the world that Deny was my real father?” ask Anna.

“Then you will be the son who ruined his father's life. Don't you mind that?” said John.

“Alright, I understand now. That's why my mother also died. He was afraid he would ruin my father's career as a politician.”

“My mom just wishes my dad had come on the day of his funeral. My mom just finished a bottle of alcohol, every time she was stressed thinking about her hard day. He's like a fool, because of my father.”

“He always drank alcohol every night, when dad didn't come to see him. I hate it so much when I see my mom drinking alcohol.”

“I'm sick of the smell of alcohol, sweat and tears. Sometimes, it makes me think, that's why I don't want to come see him.”

Anna began to cry as she continued to tell stories and recall her birth mother.

“What's wrong, Anna. Don't cry.”

John immediately hugged and stroked Anna's hair, when he saw Anna's cry getting louder.

Anna fell asleep in John's arms after he stopped crying.

Elsewhere, Tom is seen in a fishing pond.

It seemed, Tom was waiting for someone and met him at that place.

The fishing pool was very quiet, no one else was in the place except Tom alone.

Apparently, the man was the police chief who was conspiring with Tom.

The policeman got out of his car and approached Tom, who was sitting next to the pool.

“Jeez, Police Chief. You finally came.”

“How are you, Mister?”

The policeman greeted Tom and bowed his body. Apparently, the cop had been bribed by Tom with the money he had. The cop looked as respectful to Tom as his own employer.

“Sit.”

Tom picked up a folding chair and told the policeman to sit down with him.

“Good, Sir. Thanks.”

“Why do you look so happy?” ask Tom.

“What? Oh, my God, it's not so, sir. This is all thanks to you,” replied the Chief of Police.

“You must have very good insurance, right?” said Tom.

“What do you mean, Mister?” ask the Chief of Police who doesn't understand what Tom means.

“You are on both sides, my side and Office Deny,” Tom said.

“Gosh. No, Mister. Not at all. You know no, I'm only loyal to you!”

The policeman stood up and bowed to Tom.

“Good. It's up to you. Did you bring what I asked for?” ask Tom.

“Sure, Sir. I've prepared everything. Here it is.”

The cop pulled out an envelope with the files, then handed it to Tom.

Tom accepted and opened the envelope.

Apparently, the file contained John's personal data during his life. Tom asks the Chief of Police to investigate John who nearly killed him while he was at the barber the other day.
