Chapter 704 A Gang of Mysterious People

Gilbert furrowed his brows while looking at her. He took the phone over. Gilbert then pressed the receiving button and turned speaker inode on.

"Mr. Kooper, finally I've got you on the line. Yesterday, two of the jailers were assassinated."

Gilbert and Kisa's expressions changed drastically. "I called you yesterday, but you didn't pick up. The phone calls wouldn't get through. Are you okay, Mr. Kooper?"

"I'm fine. How are the two jailers?" Gilbert asked.

"The two jailers underwent an emergency medical operation. They are currently not in any danger."

Kisa heard this and could not help but sigh a breath of relief. However, the person on the other side said confusingly, "However, the people who saved the two jailers were not our people. I've done a background check on them but couldn't replace anything."

Kisa's brows immediately furrowed together. 'That's odd; why would there be another group helping them? Could it be Jensen?' After thinking for a while, she felt it was impossible. Jensen was now at Raworth, and she had never heard of Jensen mentioning stuff about the two jailers.

Furthermore, she did not tell Jensen that she was going to Hillsby. Hence, the group of people probably was not sent by Jensen. But besides Jensen, who else would help them?

Gilbert had already finished his call with his subordinate. Kisa looked at him, "Who do you think is this group of people helping us?"

Gilbert squinted his eyes and spoke in a low tone, "How would you know if the gang of people was helping us?"

Kisa froze, "They saved the two jailers. Isn't that helping us?"

"Hard to say," Gilbert walked to the side of the window and looked at the busy market outside. He spoke lowly," We should get there as soon as possible."

His face had a hint of darkness, as if he was worried about something. There were no cars in that town. Gilbert directly bought a standard vehicle from a private owner at a high price. His knees were hurt, so Kisa had to drive the car. There were no assassins after that, so Kisa was not afraid.

The journey of the drive was very smooth. Due to being fearful that something else would happen at Hillsby, they did not stay for the night in the town and directly drove into the remote mountains. When night came, the car had reached the mountain area. Gilbert was worried that her driving skills were not up to

par and scared that she was too tired. Hence, enduring the pain in his knees, he drove the car. The mountain roads were challenging to maneuver with meandering roads. Just a slight loss of focus, and the vehicle would tumble down that mountain.

Kisa sat in the car. Her nervousness made her drowsiness disappear.

Although Gilbert's driving skills were fine, he still had a worried expression on the road. He did not dare to lose focus for even a second. After driving in the mountains for a long time, the car made it into a smal village.

Kisa looked at the time; it was already past two o'clock in the morning. She looked outside. It was pitch black. She vaguely saw the short, tiled houses with the light from the headlights. At this time of night, there were no pedestrians. Occasionally, the sound of dogs barking would come through.

Gilbert parked the car in an empty space. They did not exit the vehicle. One, it was cold outside: Two, they were afraid of getting bitten by dogs. Gilbert made a call on the car, and quickly a man came over. "Mr. Kooper, you've arrived," the man was so cold that he rubbed his hands.

Gilbert gave him a glance and asked, "What about the town jailers?"

"Follow me, Mr. Kooper," the subordinate indicated.

Now, they had to leave the car. Just as Kisa got out of the car, her hands were restrained by a big warm hand. She instinctively tried to shake off the big hand's grip. Suddenly, there was the sound of dogs barking furiously.
