JOHN THE MERCENARY
CHAPTER 084 - THE DEATH OF ANNA'S MOTHER.
Roy gives the stopmap he brought to Anna.
The stopmap turned out to contain files showing Anna's unnatural mother's death.
Anna's birth mother was pronounced dead by suicide at the time.
However, the file shows that something is going wrong and proves that Anna's mother did not die by suicide.
“That's a file from the police, Anna. In it are written all the cases of your late biological mother who has long died.”
Anna opened the file and read the sheets one by one.
The file strongly suggests that Anna's mother's death was not a mere suicide. However, there is something else that is very disturbing and shows that it is a murder.
Anna's late mother was seen in pain with a broken finger and wounds on some parts of her body, which indicated she was fighting and rebelling with the person who was about to kill her.
Roy invites Anna to hold the press and open everything in front of the press.
***
All the reporters and all the media were stirred up at once when Anna began to preach that.
Agnes who heard it was very shocked and frightened by Anna's actions in front of the press.
Similarly, John, he still wonders why Anna did it in front of the press without his knowledge.
Her woe was what Anna said, very much different from what Agnes said when she was on one of the TV stations for a live broadcast.
All their words were different that made the public and journalists wonder and began to suspect it all.
During an interview on TV, Agnes said that Anna's real mother died by suicide, while Anna said that her mother died by being killed and that it had all been engineered, when he was in front of the press.
Anna also said that she would solve the mystery behind the death of her biological mother, who was thought to be a suicide.
Anna was very sure it was not a suicide because, her birth mother was not obsessed with the fame she had at the time.
Anna's birth mother also had no trouble at all economically, and even had time to make a passport for Anna, to vacation together to Korea.
And on the day of Anna's death, the late mother had already booked a plane ticket to go to Korea. And before his death the deceased also did not leave a will at all.
That's what makes Anna more convinced that her late mother did not die by suicide and wants to solve the mystery again with the authorities.
Agnes, who was already at home, was angry and frightened when she saw what Anna was doing in front of the press.
He had no idea what Anna and his sister were planning.
Agnes was very sorry for not obeying what her assistant said to kill Anna rather than having to hold her until John came ready to protect her at this time.
John, who saw the news from his car, turned his car around and went to the building where Anna and Roy were holding the press.
Arriving at the building, John heads to the room where Anna is resting.
He saw Anna sitting and looking dull after speaking to the press.
John approached Anna and asked her what she had done.
“Anna, what are you thinking? Why did you even appear in front of the press to make everyone who wanted to kill you know?”
Anna looked down and was still silent when John asked her.
“Jeez, you don't have to worry, John.”
Roy came and went into Anna's room.
“What is this doing? Did you force him to this?” ask John to Roy.
John is very worried about what Anna is doing, because it can invite Agnes will do more recklessly to hunt Anna.
“No. Uncle didn't tell me at all. I wanted to do this myself. I just want to take off the mask that Agnes is wearing,” Anna said.
“Good. I'll go first.”
Roy came out and left the room.
When Roy left, John asked Anna.
“Anna, why are you doing this?”
“I just want revenge on Agnes, and Uncle Roy will help us, I also have you who will protect me.”
Anna also gives a file about her mother's death to John who was given by Roy earlier.
“Look. My mother didn't die peacefully after taking sleeping pills. He wriggled in pain until one of his bones was broken before he actually died.”
John continued to look at the contents of the file and fell silent at the sight of Anna's unnatural death.
After finishing his press business, Roy invites Anna to go to his photo studio to take a photo of Anna.
John, Jane, and one of the bodyguards guarding Anna's safe house follow and escort her wherever she goes.
While Anna is in makeup, John invites Roy to speak in the lobby of the building where the photo studio is located.
“I thought the President was just busy looking for money, it turns out I was wrong. You even have a lot of time to do other things, like this for example,” said John.
“Work only for farm laborers, John.”
Roy smiled at John.
“Lantas, what about a president like you? What are they doing?”
John sat on the couch in the lobby, as did Roy, who followed him and sat next to John.
“Presdir? Everyone like me? We're just at war. We built palaces and looted them, then expanded our territory. After that, it is the farm workers who cultivate the land we have.”
“Then we fought again, paying the farm laborers, and so on, until we gained unlimited wealth and power. Hahahahaha.”
Roy laughed and replied casually to a question from John.
“Hmm. Is that so? I don't think Anna was just a shield to protect you from Agnes. However, Anna is a sword that you can use to slash your brother's neck. Didn't you?” said John.
“Wahhh. That sounds more like the saying. Where'd you hear learning stuff like that, John?”
“Ya, indeed. Your words are absolutely right. I just want Anna to avenge her mother's unnatural death. He was also very sure that my brother was also involved in the death of his birth mother.”
“And I can protect IP Group without any interference or threat from anyone. Is that a bad thing for you, John? Justice will be served and I will protect my palace.”
Roy continues to reason by issuing beautiful words when answering questions from John.
“So, that's why you showed a girl who has panic attack disorder, a file containing a case about her mother's death on purpose?”
John continues to corner Roy with the questions he continues to ask.
“Girl? Hahaahahaha. I think you're wrong, John. Look yourself. The woman you love is not a girl anymore. Didn't you see it? She has already grown into a beautiful woman.”
John was just silent and thought about Roy's words that had a point, if Anna was not a little girl anymore. Anna has grown into a mature girl who is old enough to know everything.
“She's not a girl anymore, John. He only needed someone who would give him wide wings to give him warmth.”
“True. You're right, Anna isn't a little girl anymore, and she's already 26 by the end of the year.”
“However, I don't think you've had much about your brother, even though you've been watching him all your life.”
“Because if you knew her well, you would never do anything risky like take Anna to the press and to this studio to take a picture.”
“Your sister is not an ordinary woman. He will do everything he can to get what he wants. You will also find out by yourself the meaning of my words this.”
John goes to the studio balcony to smoke and leaves Roy.
John sat on the chair on the balcony and waited for Anna to take a picture.
When the break came, Roy gave a break to Jane and one of the partners who also worked in Anna's safe house to rest and find lunch.
Roy also left with his car with the men who escorted him. With the exception of John, he was still on the balcony and enjoying the cigarettes and coffee he had just ordered.
And that's when, bad things have to happen to John and Anna again.
A large van appeared. The car stopped right in front of Roy's photo studio, which was guarded only by a few guards.
Ten men in special uniforms got out of the car and attacked all of Roy's men who were guarding the photo studio.
After successfully disabling all the guards, the group of people returned to their cars and took something they had hidden inside a large box.
They went back into the studio and launched their action.
I don't know who sent that person, it's not known at all with the current time.
A group of people walked into the studio and wore full uniforms and masks that served to protect the eyes of the mouth and nose, as used by welders.
After putting on all the complete equipment, they took out a grenade that emitted quite a lot of smoke.
It seemed like the grenade was a very dangerous poisonous smoke when people used to inhale it for a long time.
The mob of men began to open grenades and throw them into every corner of the studio, leaving the studio full of dangerous smoke.
John had finished his cigarette. As he was about to dispose of the cigarette butts, John saw several people in uniform enter and closed the entrance of the studio.
John also saw all Roy's men had been unconscious and lying in the studio yard.
John rushes to Anna's dressing room and saves her first.
When he saw the smoke from downstairs, John immediately looked for a way and thought about how to save Anna from the place.
John was on the second floor of Anna's dressing room. Anna, who was sitting, was shocked when John walked in and looked panicked.
“Anna. Come here!”
“Why? What's wrong with you?” ask Anna.
“There are a bunch of people who are after you, they have closed the entrance of the studio.”
“There is no other way. You have to escape through the top. Come quickly get out of here.”
John arranged a table and chair for Anna so that she could escape through the open ceiling.
“How do I get out?” anna asked as John pulled his arm and told her to go up immediately.
“Take it easy, Anna. You can definitely get out.”
“Lantas, how about yourself?”
Anna's worried, John.
“You don't have to worry about me. I can find my own way out.”
“No. Can't do. Then I'll come with you. I don't want to run away alone.”
“Anna, listen to me. Those guys spray poison gas. People who can't stand the gas will die if they inhale it for too long. Do you understand?”
John continues to persuade Anna who still does not want to run away alone.
“Gas? Poisonous gas?” ask Anna.
“Yes. Is correct. They carry poisonous gas. You don't have to be afraid. Don't you know, I'm good at fighting? I'll take care of them first, then run after you later. Quickly exit from the top.”
John continues to push Anna up to the table and out through one of the open ceilings.
“No! Nah! I don't want to! I want to come with you!”
Anna is still stubborn and unwilling to obey John, when John forces her to run away first.
“Anna, it will be more difficult if we are together. I'm the one who has to protect you!”
The two of them even exchanged mouths because Anna was still being stubborn.
“Are you a ghost? How are you gonna fight when all these buildings are full of gas? Don't try to get me out alone. Let's get out together, John.”
As John looked back, he saw smoke that had started to enter into Anna's dressing room.
“No time, Anna you have to go!”
“No! I don't want to!!”
“ANNA!!!! PLEASE!!!!!”
John shouted loudly because of Anna's stubborn attitude and did not want to obey what John said.
Anna was silent as John shouted at her.
“Listen to me, Anna. I'm begging you, Anna. If we stay together, we'll both die in this place. I'll have trouble fighting them when you're with me. Quick, hop!!”
Finally, Anna complied with John and climbed the chair and table that John had stacked to climb to the open ceiling.
When Anna had successfully entered the ceiling, John walked to the office phone lying in the room.
He also tried to contact Agnes.
When he contacted Agnes, it was his personal assistant who picked up the phone from John.
“Yes. What's up?” ask Agnes' personal assistant.
“Connect me with your employer. I want to talk to him.”
“He is busy. You can talk to me now,” said the assistant.
“Oh. So this is all you?” ask John.
