Chapter 38 Shrouded In Mystery

Thundro had nowhere to hide this time around. All he could do was gather his spirit in his abdominalarea. Then, he hollered and charged forward fearlessly with a punch.

The clash of their fists released a thunderous sound. Jonathan’s Spiralite broke the intensity ofThundro’s fist instantly. A wave of spiraling electricity penetrated Thundro’s fist, sending his body numb.

Thundro’s body shook abruptly. He did it for a reason. It was as though a rooster had captured acentipede, and the latter was struggling to break free. The rooster then shook abruptly to dissipate thecentipede’s energy.

The same applied to the two men. Thundro dissipated Jonathan’s spiraling electric force beforesquatting down abruptly and restraining the latter with his strong arms.

The locking strategy was terrific. Once Thundro restrained Jonathan in his arms, he would gather hisutmost power to break the latter’s bone.

Jonathan was slightly shocked. He was surprised to learn that Thundro had such combat skills.Thundro was an ace martial artist who moved at a lightning speed. Keeping himself calm, Jonathan puthis hands down and turned them outward, awaiting Thundro to come forward. His hands turned intoDragon Claws and grabbed Thundro’s arms.

With that, his hands would become thorny thistles that gave Thundro an excruciating pain.

Thundro panicked when he realized Jonathan’s true capability. The man had covered himself withthorns from top to bottom, and his combat skills were brilliant. Each of the changes he made was aheadache to Thundro. At that sight, Thundro dared not charge forward to restrain Jonathan anymore.He changed his strategy to prop himself with his hands on the ground and swept his legs abruptly.

That created a similar effect as a sandstorm!

Thundro knew that he wouldn’t be able to kill Jonathan on that day. His only plan was to escape rightaway.

Meanwhile, Jonathan didn’t dodge the sweeping attack by Thundro at all. Instead, he gave the latter adirect kick.

Bang!

The crisp sound of Thundro’s leg bone breaking rang out. The man screamed out loudly instantly.

Jonathan then lifted his finger. A wave of energy shot out from the tip of his finger before landing onThundro’s veins. Immediately, it froze Thundro’s blood circulation, causing a blockage. If Thundro triedto unblock it with force, his veins would explode.

That was Jonathan’s skill – Heavenly Acupressure.

Acupressure was nothing like the descriptions in books where people became motionless once theirpressure points got pointed. The acupressure skill that he used was an advanced version of that. Itcould freeze one’s blood circulation, but one was still able to walk and talk as usual. The only restraintwas one couldn’t use any force. That was because using force required the transport of oxygen. Whenthe blood vessels were blocked, using force would cause them to break apart.

Just then, the lights in the room lit up again.

The police rushed over in a hurry and were stunned upon seeing the scene.

Jonathan was sitting on one corner lazily, looking somewhat carefree.

Amber initially wanted to stop the cremation of Bethany’s body. However, when she was on her way,the police officer from earlier called and informed her that the body had been cremated. Amber wasfurious upon hearing that. She shouted at the police officer right away. Little did she know that theofficer had been bribed. Otherwise, Bethany’s body wouldn’t be cremated so soon.

At the same time, Amber had also received a call from the police station that something strange washappening in the room where Jonathan was detained.

She rushed back to the police station immediately upon hearing that news.

As soon as she entered the station, she was greeted by the sight of Damian’s body. Thundro also gotsent to the hospital to get his wounds treated.

Amber took Jonathan to the interrogation room again.

“You stole my gun, didn’t you?” she asked the man.

Jonathan smiled as he replied, “I didn’t steal it. I borrowed your gun.”

Amber didn’t intend to pursue that matter further. She was still terrified whenever she thought about it.Moreover, she had also confirmed that something was not quite right with the whole incident.Immediately, she asked again, “How did you know that someone was coming after you?”

Jonathan replied, “It’s simple. Leonardo doesn’t intend to send me to jail. He wants me dead.Furthermore, he doesn’t want anyone to investigate Bethany’s death. Hence, he will cremate her bodyfirst before sending two of his subordinates to end my life. Finally, he will bring my dead body to thepolice car, making it seem as if I’ve run away out of guilt. The police car would then definitely be metwith an accident, making it seem as if I died in the accident. With that, he could hit two birds with onestone by having me killed while making everything look seamless. I think it’s redundant for you toinvestigate me here. You should go after Leonardo instead.”

Amber gazed at Jonathan intently. This guy sure is smart! Nonetheless, it wouldn’t make sense for herto investigate Leonardo at that point as the latter didn’t come into the picture for all that had happened.Everything was merely Jonathan’s one-sided speculation.

Moreover, Leonardo was well-connected in Jipsdale. His family was also influential in Yaleview. Amberhad no right to carry out an investigation on Leonardo.

At the same time, she received another call.

It was a call from the hospital. Thundro got saved by someone, and his current whereabouts wereunknown.

She couldn’t help cursing inwardly at that news. Initially, she wanted to unveil Leonardo’s involvementin that matter by interrogating Thundro. Now, she had no way to investigate Leonardo as Thundro wasgone.

Amber fell into deep thoughts.

After a short pause, she said, “Bethany’s body has been cremated. Her family is certain that you arebehind this. The evidence on the autopsy report is disadvantageous to you. What do you think I shoulddo now?”

Jonathan knew that the matter was tricky to resolve. Since Bethany’s family was certain that he wasthe culprit of her death, and he had no evidence to prove his innocence, the autopsy report wouldsimply make him appear more guilty regardless of how he explained himself.

It was indeed a court case with a slim chance of winning.

At that stage, it was almost impossible for Jonathan to be absolved of the charges made against himand to leave the police station. Though Damian’s corpse could be a big help as a piece of solid

evidence, it was still considered a one-sided story that the court wouldn’t take seriously.

After all, Leonardo was powerful enough to get the outcome he wanted and make the judge giveJonathan a jail sentence.

Despite siding with Jonathan, Amber had to abide by the law. She couldn’t let the man leave.

Jonathan was at a loss for words.

Amber fell into silence once again. Then, she asked, “I bet Yasmin still doesn’t know that you came toprotect her, right?”

Jonathan was stunned for a second. He nodded shortly after and said, “Please don’t tell Yasmin aboutwhat happened between Connor and me.” Amber gazed at him intently as he spoke.

She was undoubtedly an idealistic hopeless romantic. She had thought that someone like Jonathanonly existed in books and myths.

It was almost possible to replace a man like him in reality.

Jonathan muttered, “Connor is dead, but Yasmin doesn’t know about it yet. If it weren’t becauseCyclops bullied her, I wouldn’t have made an appearance at all. I thought I would live peacefully for therest of my life, but things happened unexpectedly.”

Amber took in a deep breath after listening to him. “Don’t worry. I won’t tell Yasmin about it. But, I’mworried that Leonardo might still go after you after the failed mission.”

Jonathan replied, “I can’t think ahead anymore. I can only take one step at a time.” He wouldn’t tellAmber that he already had a plan in mind. In fact, he was infuriated by Leonardo’s actions. Hiscompromise had only led Leonardo to wish for his death.

Amber said again, “I feel sympathy for what you’ve gone through, and I want to help you. However, Ican’t let you go yet, given the situation. Please understand.”

Jonathan nodded in response. “It means a lot to me that you believe in me.”

Amber replied, “However, I’ll do my best to look for the evidence to prove your innocence.”

Jonathan was touched as he thanked her. “Thank you so much.”

Later, Amber let Jonathan return to the detention room. Someone had cleaned up the place and fixedthe door.

Damian’s body had been sent to the morgue, waiting for the coroner to examine his wounds. The entireprocedure went by smoothly. Jonathan was only self-defending this time around. With Amber’s help, hewouldn’t be troubled by Damian’s death.

It was a dark and quiet night.

Jonathan lay on the bed in the detention room. As he had gotten used to many things, he wasn’tterrified even after someone died in the room.

Jennifer, Polly, and Yasmin had no idea about everything that happened on that very night.

Meanwhile, in a residence at Jipsdale.

Though it was already one o’clock in the morning, the lights were still brightly lit inside the residence.

In a study on the second floor, a young man in a white shirt looked livid.

The white shirt that he was wearing was handmade in Ustrana. The tailoring was impeccable and gaveoff a luxurious feel.

The young man looked youthful. He had a handsome face like a comic character who stood below theblooming cherry blossom tree. His good looks were somewhat surreal and didn’t make him look like amortal.

Despite looking like an eighteen-year-old, the man was already in his thirties.

He was no one but Leonardo Young, the young master of Young Corporation.

At that moment, he was displeased after hearing the news earlier.

Thundro’s leg was untreatable. He would be crippled forever. In other words, Leonardo had lost twocapable fighters overnight.

Of course, words about that incident would spread quickly. Everyone would know that the talentedyoung master of Young Corporation, who was also the leader of Strikezone Martial Arts, had failed todefeat a petty security guard. The reputation of Strikezone Martial Arts would be tarnished for sure ifthe words got out.

People who had insider information would suspect that Jonathan wasn’t just a simple security guard.Those who believed in the hearsay would think that all the disciples in Strikezone Martial Arts wereuseless.

It brought back the memory where two disciples of Mystic Clan of Mount Wallore got beaten up by twothugs. That incident had caused a public uproar. All the civilians started making fun of the martial artsof Mount Wallore, saying that martial arts were nothing but useless skills in the era of advancedtechnology.

However, Leonardo knew the truth. The two thugs were actually skillful martial artists that were indisguise to seek revenge on the disciples of Mystic Clan.

After that incident, Mount Wallore no longer dared to promote the benefits of practicing martial artsanymore because nobody would believe in them again.

They had lost their good names.

That was exactly the predicament Leonardo found himself in right now.

He would never be able to live a peaceful life if the reputation of Strikezone Martial Arts got tarnishedlike Mystic Clan. Edward would be the first person to come after him if that happened.

Leonardo’s eyes flickered. He was coming up with some sinister plans again.

Just then, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door.

Leonardo’s hearing ability was terrific. He could tell who was coming by hearing the sound. A tinge ofenthusiasm flashed across his frigid cold eyes suddenly.

A woman walked into the room.

She was wearing a dark red gown with her hair tied up in a bun. Despite looking around twenty-eightyears old, she was already thirty-eight. Her face was beautiful and elegant. She was well-endowed withlong legs, exuding a charisma that would drive any man crazy in that gown.

Her entrance to the room brought in her scent.

She was Bianca Schmidt, Leonardo’s youngest aunt.

Bianca was holding a tray as she entered. There was a bowl of cold dessert on the tray.

“Leon.” She came beside Leonardo. Her red lips were full of seduction when she spoke. They lookedlike cherries gleaming under the light, giving one an urge to have a taste of it.
