The night passed silently.The next day…Gloom arrived early in the morning.In the room.James and Gloom discussed the details of their mission for a while.He wanted Gloom to arrange the Elite Eight into the Red Flame army and get them stationed at the prison entrance.The Red Flame army was responsible for the Capital’s safety.A soldier had to go through multiple reviews before finally being assessed by the Red Flame army’s General. Only after a series of assessments would one be accepted as an official member.Gloom was the King’s personal bodyguard but did not have a military rank and stayed in the shadows. Despite that, he was in great authority. He was basically the representative of the King. It would not be challenging for him to arrange May and the others into the Red Flame army. In fact, it could even be said to be a cinch for him. “Alright, leave it to me.”Gloom nodded. He glanced at the feeble James and said, “You’ll have to be cautious after this. The Emper

“Understood.” May nodded and quickly headed out.James was feeling drained and leaned back in the bed.He was lost in his thoughts.Suddenly, Quincy approached and climbed on the bed. She massaged James’ legs with a worried expression on her pretty face. “You’re already exhausted but still doing so many things. You should be resting.”James snapped out of his thoughts and waved his hands, saying, “Alright, that’s enough. It’s stuffy in the hotel. Could you push me out for some fresh air?”“Okay.” Quincy nodded. “Give me a few minutes. I need to change my outfit.”She hurriedly left and went back to her room to change.She changed into a dress and tied up her hair. In an instant, she transformed into a mature and noble-like woman. Afterward, she pushed James out of the hotel.It was morning.The autumn breeze was chilly as it brushed against their skin.“James, where do you want to go?”James leaned back in the wheelchair and watched the pedestrians moving along the streets

James deliberately met with the Emperor to test the waters.The Emperor had a strong reaction to his words.James had a conjecture about the Emperor’s motives. He must have a close relationship with the Gu raisers. Additionally, there was a secret research facility in Cansington, Lily City. Even Jake’s intelligence network was unable to penetrate it.James had a rough guess that this research facility was related to parasitic venom.“Let’s look around,” James instructed Quincy.“Okay.” Quincy nodded and pushed James to look around the city.The Emperor got into the vehicle, and the driver immediately drove off.He sat in the back row with a grim expression. He never expected James to be so sharp and piece the puzzle together just by being poisoned.This was a hundred years ago history that was long forgotten.Most who knew about those secrets were long dead. How was it possible for James to find out?James was already a crippled man.Still, James' unexpected visit made him a

After he was stuffed, he laid back in bed and rested as Quincy cleaned up the mess.For the rest of the day, he stayed in the hotel.It was boring in the hotel, but Quincy made it tolerable and fun with her jokes.Time passed by quickly.Soon, the day of their mission arrived.Night time.James stood on the balcony and looked at the brightly lit city before him.Quincy approached him with an oversized coat and covered him as she reminded him, “It’s autumn, and the weather is getting chillier. With your current condition, you shouldn’t catch a cold. The doctor warned that it’ll be dangerous for you to get sick.”James enjoyed the night city view.“Look, the Capital is mesmerizing at night.”“I can’t believe you’re still in the mood to be sentimental. Your men are going to be springing into action tonight. If they fail, it’ll be a death penalty.”“I’ve done what I could. Everything else is up to fate,” James murmured.He looked in the direction of the General Assembly Hall an

Blake swallowed the poison that James made.James knew Blake was overpowering, and it would be a disaster if he was unrestrained after breaking him out of prison.He despised doing things with uncertainty.If he was to rescue Blake, then the latter’s life had to be in his control.This time, James had a thorough plan and a clear division of tasks.Some would use routine daily inspections to infiltrate the prison, while others would be responsible for tripping the power to shut down the surveillance cameras temporarily.Soon, May brought Blake to the place where the other Red Flame army soldiers were knocked unconscious.May pointed at the unconscious soldiers lying on the ground and instructed, “Take off one of their clothes and wear it. Act quickly.”Blake remained silent and obediently undressed one of the soldiers and quickly put on the robe.“Let’s go.”They quickly evacuated from the prison.At this moment, the electricity had been restored.However, the surveillance cam

Blake was led to the base and boarded the helicopter with the Elite Eight.Gloom stood aside and watched the helicopter slowly take off. Then, he took out his phone and called James, “Blake has been rescued. They have safely left the Capital and are heading to Cansington.”James smiled after receiving the news. “Got it.”Gloom said, “I’ll leave the rest to you. I’ll have to clean up the aftermath in the Capital and get rid of your subordinate’s information. The Emperor will surely come to question me after returning.”“Alright.” James nodded.Gloom asked, “When are you leaving?”James replied calmly, “I can’t rush it. If I leave now, it will make the Emperor suspicious of me. I plan to stay for a few more days and wait for the Emperor to return to Sol. I’ll have to pay him another visit before leaving.”“Do as you please but be careful.”Gloom hung up the phone after he finished speaking.Paradise Hotel, Presidential Suite No.888.James stood on the balcony and reveled in th

Tonight, the Capital was thrown into turmoil. Countless gangsters showed up in the General Assembly Hall and caused a huge commotion. The Red Flame army was dispatched to arrest these gangsters.Unexpectedly, the whole city was also blocked off soon after. Police and military vehicles swarmed the streets, setting up sentries at major intersections throughout the city. The citizens were perplexed and did not understand what was happening. Thus, most chose to obediently stay at home.The Red Flame army stormed the city but had no luck finding Blake. It was a sleepless night for them. The night sky was soon lit up by the sun.The next day…James’ sleep was interrupted by Quincy.He opened his eyes in confusion and saw that Quincy had already prepared breakfast for him on the table. He picked up his phone and saw it was already ten in the morning.“It’s already ten o’clock. It’s been a long time since I’ve last slept this much.”“You must be hungry. I’ve got you breakfast.” Qu

‘Could it be James?’The thought crossed his mind.Seconds later, he denied the possibility. James was crippled and had no authority. He could not have accomplished it. Additionally, the influential officials in the Capital all want him dead and would never be willing to help me.There was no reason for James to help Blake either.“Continue to investigate and get to the bottom of it. Also, send out a wanted order for Blake. We must recapture him.”“Understood!” The generals nodded.…Today, the sun shined brightly.James got out of bed, had something to eat, and requested Quincy to push him outside so that he could bask in the sun.“Where to now, James?”Pushing James’ wheelchair on the streets, Quincy could not help asking.She had been pushing him around for two hours. Never had she served another person like this before in her whole life.Her feet were already sore.“Let’s go walk around the Emperor’s Mansion.”James was ecstatic. He had rescued his life-saving straw
