Chapter 156 Covered Up
It was a sleepless night for many people in Pollerton.
Fortune Bar had long become a key landmark in Pollerton. It was a huge symbol of Jim’s power.
However, that night, it suddenly collapsed and became a pile of ruins.
When Rupert received the news, he was instantly astonished.
“What’s happening?” Rupert was planning to meet Python, who was the greatest deity out of the Twelve Divine Deities, at the Supreme Meeting. Yet, his plans were disrupted by the report, and he stood up in shock.
“Someone mobilized Pollerton Air Force Regiment and Pollerton 318 Regiment?” Even though Rupert was used to witnessing huge upheavals, he could not help but feel a ripple of fear when he heard the news.
Just how powerful is that person to be capable of doing such a thing?
“Is there anyone left alive?” A young man was seated next to Rupert.
He looked extremely strange and gave people the impression of a python at first glance.
A ferocious python was tattooed on his bald head. The tattoo extended to the back of his head.
He wore a silver leather jacket and a pair of leather shoes. It made him look like an energetic young lad.
However, only a handful of people knew that he was Noah’s greatest assistant, Python!
An informant shook his head. “No one was left alive.”
“Where’s Shima and Jay?” Rupert and Akio suddenly realized a terrible truth. Jay and Shima had yet to arrive. They were most probably dead.
As expected, two skulls flew over from the darkness and landed at the two people’s feet.
Rupert lowered his head and took a look at them. Who else could it be but Jay and Shima?
Akio’s eyes narrowed frostily. “What on earth happened?”
Rupert closed his eyes and replied, “A powerful person has entered Pollerton.”
His breathing quickened.
Noah used to be a Prince of Pollerton. Now that he wished to make a comeback, he was faced with many challenges.
Thus, he had ordered Rupert to enter Pollerton first and contact those who were allied with him.
However, he seemed to have met a bigger set of problems.
First, the Four-Faced Angel Bennett was killed out of the blue. Currently, one of his supporters, Jay, had also been decapitated.
Who is behind this?
No matter how much he racked his brains, Noah would not have been able to find a connection between Donald and the incidents.
“We lost hundreds of people and a huge building. That’s worth hundreds of millions!” Rupert’s eyes were red with annoyance. “I have to acknowledge this person’s skills!”
Akio slammed a hand on the table. “I’ll exert all my effort to investigate this!”
The next day, the news of the collapse of Fortune Bar appeared in the headlines of many newspapers.
The official explanation given for the collapse of the Fortune Bar was that the construction workers did shoddy work and used inferior material to build the building. There was a problem with the design that caused it to collapse overnight. As for why helicopters and Pollerton 318 Regiment appear?
Of course, they appeared to rescue people.
It was reported that the mobilization of military forces to rescue the people stuck in the rubble was meant as proof that they cared for the public.
A normal person would naturally believe it.
Yet, the elites roughly had an idea of what had transpired.
In Nouveau Hospital, Lana followed Donald’s instructions and rushed Jennifer to the patient’s ward.
Jennifer had no severe injuries. All of her injuries were superficial wounds, but she needed to recuperate for some time.
Donald sat beside her and quietly observed her.
Under the sunlight, Jennifer’s pale face shone as her eyelashes fluttered. She was in a deep slumber, and her complexion did not look too good.
A few minutes later, Jennifer suddenly jolted awake.
She was preparing to sit up when a strong and large hand pressed her shoulder. “Don’t move. Rest well.”
“Donald?” Jennifer’s heart clenched as tears flowed from her eyes.
“You just fell and got injured. Nothing else happened,” Donald said calmly.
“How did I get out of the rubble?” Jennifer asked softly. She lay on the patient’s bed and looked at Donald’s side profile.
