The man in black shuddered. He turned toward the direction of the sound and went white in fear upon noticing
Zeke.
Damn it! When did he come into the cave?
Why didn’t I notice anything?
There are only a few people who can get close to me without getting themselves noticed.
This man has done it. He must be strong!
I’m no match for him!
Coming to a conclusion, the man in black ran toward the other end of the cave without hesitation, leaving the
syringes and test tubes behind.
That speed!
Zeke was caught off guard.
He couldn’t guarantee he could catch up with him. After all, he didn’t know the terrain in this cave, and the man
must have scouted the terrain beforehand.
So, he simply kicked a stone under his feet, hitting the man right in the back of the head.
With a loud cry, the man collapsed to the ground and lay unmoving.
Zeke quickly ran up to him, stepping on his back. “Stop playing dead! What’s your name, and who are you?”
The man didn’t reply.

That was a powerful kick, but it’s definitely not lethal.
Zeke turned the man’s body over carefully.
Shit!
The man’s face had turned green in the blink of an eye, his face was greatly distorted, and he was spitting blood
from his mouth.
There was no doubt that the man had taken poison in order not to fall into Zeke’s hands.
The man in black must be a top assassin.
For one, there was a unique aura about him that only an assassin could possess.
And two, only a top assassin would have the courage to make up their minds to take poison and kill themselves in a
matter of seconds to save themselves from getting tortured.
Zeke didn’t waste any more time on the man. He quickly went to check on Daniel and Hannah.
All the physiological signs of the old couple were normal; they had been most probably knocked out by ordinary
ecstasy.
Zeke woke them up using the Ammo Needle.
They first looked around in confusion, and only after a long time did they come back to their senses with a look of
horror.
Hannah was even screaming, “P-Please don’t do this. W-We won’t say a word about this.”
Zeke hurriedly squatted down and comforted, “Mom, Dad, it’s okay.”
Zeke turned the men’s body over cerefully.
Shit!

Henneh wes even screeming, “P-Pleese don’t do this. W-We won’t sey e word ebout this.”
Zeke hurriedly squetted down end comforted, “Mom, Ded, it’s okey.”
“I’ve taken care of the assassin. You’re safe now.”
What?
Only then did the old couple recognize Zeke.
“Zeke!” Daniel exclaimed. “What are you doing here?”
“I’m here to rescue you. Right. Mom, Dad, what did you mean when you said you won’t say a word about this?”
Cold sweat broke out on Daniel and Hannah’s forehead. “N-Nothing. It’s nothing important. My mind was fuzzy. I
didn’t know what I was saying.”
“Oh? So you don’t know the assassin?” Zeke asked suspiciously.
The two shook their head without the slightest hesitation. “We don’t. We’ve never seen him before.”
They’re lying.
Lacey clearly told me the man in black is their distant relative, Uncle Hunt.
How could they not know him?
Besides, ‘we won’t say a word about this’?
So they knew all along why they were kidnapped, but why won’t they tell me?
What are they hiding?
Zeke was just about to ask further when Daniel said, “Come on, Zeke. Let’s get going.”
Fine. There’s no point pushing it if they refuse to talk.
