Chapter 11 Reidon's Movements
Cross replied and hung up in a panic.
He sat in his office with a sad face. He didn't know why Reidon could be supported by the gangsters.
He was deeply scarred by last night's events.
After those agents sent Reidon away, they threatened Cross and others.
If they did it again, they might be sent to prison.
Cross believed it because these people could make the police leave in an instant.
He couldn't figure out why the gangsters had such power.
How did Reidon know these terrible men and why did he become a little insurance salesman?
For torturing himself?
Cross decided to stay away from Reidon.
He didn't want to provoke this dangerous man.
Otherwise, one day he might be killed and even didn't know who did it.
At the same time, in the Walmart.
The women were doing a crazy shopping for cooking ingredients.
Reidon trailed behind.
He felt a little emotional. It seemed that he hadn't had this feeling for a while.
He hadn't gone shopping in the supermarket with others.
The last time he did was four years ago when he was still in high school and met his ex-girlfriend.
After graduation, they lived together and they often came to buy groceries and cooked together after work.
Unfortunately, a year later, they broke up.
Then Reidon had never cooked at home again.
He usually ate fast food and did not have a regular schedule.
He was always in a daze and obsessively addicted to his work.
However, he couldn't work well and did not earn much money.
Now he was at the supermarket again.
He had a complicated feeling in his mind.
"Reidon?" An unfamiliar voice asked.
Reidon stopped and found a woman holding a child, looking at him and calling his name uncertainly.
Looking at this woman, Reidon felt that she looked very familiar, but he did not know who she was.
"I'm Reidon. Who are you?"
"I'm Ada."
Hearing her words, Reidon came to a sudden realization.
She was his high school classmate.
Reidon had dropped out of high school in the third year. At that time, he had strong friendships with his classmates.
Seeing her holding a child, Reidon was very moved that the girl at that time had already become a young woman.
Then, they began complaining.
When he heard that their high school reunion would be held tomorrow evening, Reidon was stunned.
No one told him about the high school reunion.
"Don't you know? Our class leader asked so many people to contact you, but they couldn't find you anywhere. You must come tomorrow. I know you didn't graduate, but everyone in our class remembers you."
Reidon nodded, "Okay, I will."
Then, they exchanged their phone number, and Ada left with the child in her arms.
Before she left, she told Reidon that he must come.
After that, Reidon finished shopping with his roommates at the supermarket and went home.
The Super Skyscraper was an iconic building in the Goethe City.
The higher levels of this building were directly taken over by the government.
The Mission Control of the Mars Project was also located here.
At this moment, in the office on the highest floor, a man in military uniform was sitting on a chair, listening to the report of his subordinate.
"According to our investigation, a piece of the manuscript was accidentally lost and appeared on the dark web's black market."
Hearing these words, the man in military uniform had a serious expression. He kept tapping his fingers on the table to hide the uneasiness in his heart.
He seemed to be deep in thought about something.
Seeing that his superior did not speak, the subordinate continued,
"This is because someone took a piece of the manuscript discarded by the target and made a photo. The person posted it online to ridicule it, saying that the piece of the manuscript was simply a piece of trash and the writer was ridiculous.
"According to our statistics, hundreds of thousands of people have seen this manuscript. The exact number is still unknown. There might be other ways to spread it. We discovered this mysterious person in the black market."
The man in military uniform continued to knock on the table. He slowly raised his head, and a long scar was left on his face. It was very frightening.
He said in a deep voice, "Send more people to start an investigation immediately. We must find out who sent the manuscript to the internet. Also, start to completely block and delete all news about the manuscripts. We can't let the manuscripts continue to spread on the dark web. Otherwise, no one knows what will happen."
"Yes, sir!"
After saying that, the man left the office.
The man with scar in his face slowly stood up in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the city's night scene. Only God knows how many unknown forces were bubbling.
The staff members worked in the three floors under the base.
They monitored Reidon's movements by various online information, social media, and real-time monitoring.
If anything unusual happened, someone would activate the warning system.
The over 3,000 agents around Reidon would immediately approach Reidon.
They made such a tight defense that Reidon was almost surrounded.
At this moment, a staff member looked at the computer queerly.
He had been staring at the computer with his mind wandering.
Not long after, he could not sit still anymore.
He got up and came to a blind spot in the fire exit.
He took out a satellite phone from his pocket.
"How's it going? Have you found it?"
The man asked in a very anxious voice.
"No problem."
"Alright, I'll contact you tonight. Be careful."
With these words, the man hung up.
At the other end of the line, the man hung up and put his phone in his pocket.
The man walking out of the airport, a black car stopped in front of him.
The man was expressionless. He opened the car door and walked in.
The car was silent. The driver didn't dare to talk to him.
The car had drove for about half an hour and finally stopped at the door of a private residence.
The driver opened the door and the man followed the driver into the small courtyard.
The scenery in the courtyard was very pleasant.
In the middle of the small courtyard sat a middle-aged man, seemingly waiting for his arrival.
