The Hero

Chapter 442 Slow Death

Nathaniel turned and left after he finished speaking.

He looked so carefree the entire time, even to the point that he did not mind being threatened by Herschel with a knife around his neck.

'Nathaniel Hurst. But I don't know if he's actually the one who's pulling or the force that's backing him. I have to do a thorough investigation first.'

Herschel's face was pale after Nathaniel had left.

Not only was a sniper aiming his head from afar, but he even ended up being lectured by a literal child, which was why he felt so bad.

"Boss, I want to ask some men."

Javier laughing. “You want some men, eh? Sure, call Kenzo then!”

'So he pulled out a big gun, eh? Coincidentally, I have some of my own.Then, let's try doing some external business!'

That afternoon, Javier meets Suzanne again at a restaurant.

Suzanne suddenly recalled a name after Javier dug into her memory.

“I'm sure Nathaniel has a financial group backing him from behind. I remember him receiving a phone call when I went to his office to discuss some progress. I'm not sure what the person on the phone said, but Nathaniel continues to speak in a foreign language that sounds very similar to the language the Yuzu people speak. He even sounds very respectful.

“After he hung up the phone call, I remember him cursing and saying something like 'Brian Schmidt, you idiot!'…

That's her! His name is Brian Schmidt! I can clearly remember this because his last name reminds me of the villain in the comics!”

'Brian Schmidt is a Yuzuian. Does this mean the financial group that supported Nathaniel came from Yuzuia?'

Javier immediately pulled out his phone and called Mei Hachison.

When he asked if the Hachison family controlled this team of medical researchers, he said that they did control a team of researchers of a similar nature, but this one was not theirs.

Mei even claimed not to be familiar with the name Brian Schmidt when mentioned.

“But don't worry, I'll investigate this man as soon as possible. I'm sure I'll be able to find anything as long as it relates to Yuzuia!”

Yuzuia is a very small country. Plus, Mei now had control over Hachison, so this was indeed a rather simple task for her. So, Javier has good reason to believe that he's not just bragging. Javier hangs up the phone call after a casual chat with Mei for a while. Then, he turned to look at Suzanne.

“Suzy, are you probably in love with me? You just told me everything without trying to hide anything.. ”.

In a joking tone, Javier managed to ask Suzanne a very serious question.

Suzanne is a very intelligent woman who understands what Javier really wants to ask her. So, without paying attention to the joke, he could focus on the main issue itself.

“To be honest, it's not that we don't want to go back. We just can't afford it most of the time. Here, our freedom is clenched in the hands of others. We don't have passports, we don't even have any proof of identity. Do you understand where I'm going with this?"

Javier instantly understood that Suzanne and the others were indirectly shackled.

'Although he might seem free like a bird and could go wherever he wanted, how far could he spread his wings when he was in such a small country?

'He has no identity here either. Although he was fine as he was protected by Nathaniel's connections, he and the others would soon be arrested by the police once they reached another country.

Since they did not have passports or other identification documents, it was clear that they did not leave the country through legal means, so they did not have the means to seek help at this time.

'However, since they had a lot of money and superficial freedom, they were not too affected by their situation.

'Unfortunately, it is clear that Suzanne does not really like living her life like that

the imprisoned dog.

So, by telling me all this, he will be able to help me and himself at the same time.

'If I was really able to acquire the company, it would obviously be a better thing for him, because he would be able to return to his own country.

'After all, who wouldn't lose their own home despite the fact that the neighboring grass always looked greener?'

After lunch, Suzanne returns to work, while Javier receives a call from Kenzo.

"Herschel called me, but I still want you to give me approval first."

“Please and mobilize the men. He already has someone training the red dot right on his head.”

Javier knows that Mackenzie will really take the matter seriously if he is threatened. Sure enough, Mackenzie immediately said, “I will personally lead the team there. We'll arrive tonight.”

'Err... I think he's gone too far with this.' Javier intends to tell Mackenzie that he doesn't need to lead the team himself, but the latter has already hung up before he can even say anything.

“Again, I think it's okay because it's been a long time since I last met him. We can meet and have a drink anyway.'

Mackenzie is very efficient. It is unknown what channel he used, but he actually showed up at Javier's place after 10 p.m. In fact, Mackenzie wasn't the only one coming. There were 200 people behind him, all complete.

Other than their mercenary logos, they all had the same standard weapons and armor, which did not belong to any particular country but made them seem no different from actual military soldiers.

Even Herschel was surprised by Mackenzie's ability. 'How could he deploy 200 fully armed men here in such a short time ?!'

After handing over 200 people to Herschel, Javier and Mackenzie go to a restaurant for a drink.

Mackenzie still has long hair, which makes it seem like a certain movie character has killed her dog and an artist.

However, he was actually far more ruthless and vicious than anyone else imagined, even to the point of making many families fear him. Come to think of it, if a power like Hachison

offending him, their entire family might be uprooted completely.

Even the amount of authority Kersey has given him is enough to show clearly how capable and powerful he is, and how much trust Kersey has in him.

Javier and Mackenzie drank three pints of beer before they started chatting casually.

However, even their ordinary conversations could not be heard by just anyone.

Running Man and GTR stand watching outside as Javier starts asking about the situation inside his family.

"Your grandfather is fine, and nothing special happens in the family, other than the fact that Arthur and William's strife reaches its peak."

Javier asked, "Why didn't the old fox intervene to suppress the two of them as quickly as possible?"

Mackenzie laughs. “I suggested that he do that, but he refused. One time, he told me that he could get them both suppressed, but he was unable to do it completely, not because he was unable to do it, she said, but because he could not force himself to do something so cruel.

“One is his son, and the other is his grandson. Do you think your Grandpa can really force himself to put it down permanently?

“That's most important, it won't achieve anything if he just presses them on the surface. If he forcefully paves the way for you to become the next family leader, they will still cause trouble for you afterward. So, in my view, there was only one reason he decided to retreat, and that was to let the two of them fight each other until the bitter end.

“If one of them will die someday, the other will also stop whatever they do. After all, there was only so much to do when they were alone, so if they could not

cooperate and make you trouble, You will not face real threats.

"Your grandfather.let them slowly die."

Javier was a little surprised. In the past, he had only thought that the old fox would be heartbroken. He never realized that the old fox would actually think far ahead.

In fact, the old fox was actually able to give everything he had for Javier's sake, even to the point that he had to suffer while watching his son and grandson die slowly.

Javier took a deep breath. “I can't let that tiger suffer anymore. I had to find a way to get the two of them pressed down until they could not move.

Mackenzie smiled bitterly. “If it were that easy, even if it was that easy, your grandfather would have been able to think of a solution by now.

“There is no solution, so let's let it run naturally.”

Javier knows that it will be very difficult to do this without a viable solution, but he has no choice but to give it a try.

After all, he could not stand up and watch the old fox suffer so much for his sake.

Therefore, Javier now made this matter a priority in his mind, as he wanted to find the right opportunity to solve the problem.

That night, Javier and Mackenzie had a lot to drink while having a very happy conversation. In Mackenzie's own words, it had been a very long time since she felt so great.

However, the next day, Javier and Mackenzie both feel uncomfortable!
