The road was clear. Daren drove his car at high speed. There weren't many vehicles on this road. During the trip, Daren and Joshua didn't talk much. Both Daren and Joshua were busy with their own thoughts.

Right at kilometer 123. Daren saw two mysterious black cars, constantly looming behind. From the way the car was following, Daren guessed a little.

"There's a little mouse, trying to get into the lion's cage," said Daren, using a meaningful gesture.

Joshua, who understood, glanced in the rearview mirror. What Daren said was true. He saw two black cars following them behind.

Joshua didn't recognize either car. After all, he hadn't asked Xena for an escort. Certainly, the enemy had arrived. They were delivering precious lives into the lion's den.

"Do you want to switch positions?" offered Joshua, who immediately got a shake of the head from Daren.

"I can handle this. I've been looking forward to the sensation for a while."

Instead of feeling fear, Daren felt the opposite sensation

    "Are you okay, Joshua?" asked Daren quite anxiously, even though he was also experiencing severe shocks. Joshua just nodded slowly. Wasting no time, he quickly got out of the car. So did Daren. A girl, walking briskly with a few stout men in tow, followed behind."Isn't she the woman we met earlier?" Daren narrowed his eyes. He re-examined the figure of the beautiful woman. It was familiar. However, it was unknown what her name was.Joshua did not answer. He increased his vigilance, because the men who were guarding the woman were none other than the EAGLE EYE members, who in the past few days, had been wanted.Joshua didn't bother with the woman, he focused more on the EAGLE EYE members."Increase your vigilance, Daren. They're EAGLE EYE members!" Joshua warned. Daren clenched his hands into fists. Now he understood that the woman had deliberately crashed into the car, to raise the flag of war to Black Shadow.Daren remembered very well, how at the crosswalk, the girl had pretende

    "Hold them, Daren!" Joshua exclaimed loudly. He was trying to close the gap as quickly as possible. Meanwhile, Daren was frozen in place, confused by Joshua's intentions."Don't just stand there, you idiot! Look at them!" Joshua swore harshly. His face, which had been quite calm, now looked sinister again.The six men who were members of EAGLE EYE had just swallowed a pill that was kept in their coat pocket. In just a few seconds, foam came out of their mouths. Daren couldn't hide his shock, while Joshua closed his eyes. He had just remembered one thing. However, before he could go any further, they had already taken action."What did they do? Did they poison themselves?" asked Daren curiously.Joshua nodded. He was only a few feet away from them. However, his efforts were still unable to stop them."We're too late. How could I forget the most important thing. Shit!"In addition to blaming himself, Joshua also swore harshly. Daren could feel the frustration in Joshua. It could be s

    "You, who killed my father!" shouted the young man who was usually called Vernon in a loud voice.He immediately grabbed Daren's shirt collar, which was still stuck in place. Staring blankly at his father-in-law's body.Vernon gave him a blank look. The bottom line of his eyes was red, emitting an aura full of emotion."Say! You were the one who killed my father, right? Look! Your hands are covered in blood and there is a knife near you! Admit it, that you were the one who took my father's life! What is my father's life? Damn, you have the heart to take his life, ah!”Vernon shouted while Daren could only surrender. His lips wanted to say no. However, all his words got stuck in the corner of his throat.

    "Hey, you!" called the man in the corner of the cell while leaning his large body against the notoriously cold prison wall.Daren was silent for a moment. He looked left and right because he wasn't completely sure that it was the man who was calling."Hey, you! Fat! Are you deaf?!" He called again. Now with a fat appendage that Daren can understand.Daren pointed at himself doubtfully. The man nodded quickly, "Come here!" he ordered, then raised one of his tattooed hands. He motioned for Daren to come closer.Daren swallowed his saliva heavily, like swallowing snake fruit seeds. He looked at the man for a long time. From his appearance, it was clear he looked like a delinquent. Cold-blooded due to many wounds on his arms and face. It could be that he also killed many people indiscriminately. Daren thought so.The man took a deep breath. He seemed to close his eyes for a moment, before finally speaking. "Quick, come here stupid! Or you won't be able to see tomorrow!"Hearing the man's

    The next day."Help!" shouted Joshua from inside the cell."Help! Someone's fainted here!"His screams were heard outside and one of the officers on guard approached the cell. Find out what happened."What is it? Who fainted?” The officer peered into the cell from behind the iron bars which were still locked. At first glance he found a prisoner lying down. However, we cannot yet confirm what the cause is."Help! It looks like he passed out from poisoning!" Joshua reasoned while making a pitiful face.The officer hesitated to go inside. When he first saw it from a distance, it turned out that Joshua was right. White foam came out of Daren's mouth.The man in the black uniform and gun hurriedly called his colleague who was in charge of guarding the cell key.Joshua grinned, then sat back with a deep sigh, waiting for the stupid officer to come. Meanwhile, Daren was still lying down, pretending to be poisoned.A few minutes passed, and officers arrived with their colleagues. Joshua immed

    "Are you ready?" Joshua asked seriously. Staring intently at Daren who stood proudly right in front of him."More than ready, to accompany you wherever you go!"Daren replied coldly. Yet, full of authority. The look in his eyes portrayed firmness. Today's outfit, a warrior sleeve T-shirt, which displayed his muscular build. The long pants were a little tight. The impression of a mature man is increasingly radiating.In recent times, Daren has managed to transform himself from being fat, ugly and considered trash. Now he had transformed himself into a handsome, dashing young man who was proficient in martial arts and shooting. "Nice! I've always liked your style." Joshua smiled with satisfaction and patted Darun's right shoulder once, before he walked away.Joshua took out a pair of sunglasses from his pants pocket and put them on. He was known as the right-hand man of the Black Shadow Organization. Meanwhile, Daren was not idle, and he soon caught up with Joshua. He stuffed both ha

    A few days have passed. Daren was living a better life than before. Being Xena's bodyguard wasn't as bad as she thought it would be. Xena didn't give Daren a hard time. He could still work on her martial arts and shooting skills, while off duty.In a private room known only to Xena and Joshua. However, Daren was now the trusted figure to know that room."Do you have a plan to conquer Distric S01?" Xena said very seriously. Xena's right hand held a wooden stick, which she used to point at a map that was right in front of her."Distric S01 is currently controlled by the EAGLE EYE Organization." Joshua said no less seriously than Xena.As the right-hand man in the Black Shadow Organization, Joshua certainly had a lot of information in every district. He had solid people, who were ready to take orders at any time."I want EAGLE EYE, wiped out from District S01 and Black Shadow to occupy District S01," Xena said, staring intently at a map spread out on the table.Joshua folded his arms a

    Sebastian, who was the shooter in the restaurant incident, has died at the hands of someone, whose identity remains unknown. Someone sent Sebastian's head to the hotel, where Daren and Joshua were staying. It remains a mystery, who killed Sebastian? Could the EAGLE EYE members be involved in this mystery? *"Is Xena coming back to Distric S01?" asked Daren very seriously. He showed a flat expression. However, his mind was thinking about many things. Especially the plan to scramble EAGLE EYE's headquarters, which until this moment, was unknown where it was located?In this case, Daren wanted to prove. He was capable of being a strong man"Xena, don't say anything. She left everything to us." Joshua answered briefly. Getting a mysterious shipment from someone, which contained a human head, made Joshua think even harder.Moments after reading the threatening letter, Joshua immediately informed Xena. The beautiful woman, it seemed, couldn't be bothered. From the way Xena had spoken

    12. THE DEATH OF SEBASTIAN

    TWO HOURS AFTER THE SHOOTING AT THE RESTAURANT.Daren, visited the place again, to find out who had opened fire. His curiosity was still very high about this matter. Daren used a flashlight to find his way in the darkness. The atmosphere of the room was still disorganized. Daren could see vaguely that nothing had changed here. Everything was left as it was.Daren pointed his flashlight at the roof, looking for the CCTV cameras installed in this restaurant."Found it!" Daren shrieked, just as he found the CCTV camera attached to the highest corner of this room.There wasn't just one CCTV, but four CCTVs scattered in several places. Daren immediately took one CCTV from its place, then the others as well. After getting what he wanted, Daren then left from there.***"Search carefully!" Joshua ordered seriously. His eyes refused to move from the monitor screen. "Okay!" Daren replied excitedly. Joshua did the same. Daren's eyes refused to move from one spot. He was very focused on the

    A young man, twenty years old, wearing a black hat, black jacket and long pants, came out of a modest apartment on the outskirts of the city."Going out, are you?" asked Daren, who had been there for about half an hour. The young man's steps stopped. He widened his eyes, right after closing the apartment door. He didn't think he'd become someone's target so soon. "Who are you?" the young man asked, simultaneously raising his guard. He lowered his head, not wanting his face to be too exposed to strangers. "We met at the restaurant." Daren said coldly. "What restaurant? I don't recognize you!" the young man insisted, raising his voice and waving his arms to get Daren out of his way.He tried to dodge. However, Daren was not the type of person to be lied to so easily. "Don't you lie! I already know everything! You opened fire in that restaurant!"The young man looked to his right and left. Looking for an opening to escape. Lingering here for too long would leave him cornered.Daren

    "What are you doing?" asked Joshua, approaching Daren who was sitting there staring at his phone screen very seriously.Daren wouldn't have noticed Joshua's approach, had the man not immediately asked the question. "Looking at the news," Daren replied briefly.Joshua directed his gaze, wondering what news Daren was watching that would make him so focused and unaware of his surroundings?"Not important news." Daren was evasive and immediately turned off his phone screen. Joshua snatched it out of Daren's hand.The news Daren was watching was definitely not ordinary news. Joshua thought so. "I've become curious. What's the news that's got you so discouraged?"Joshua glanced at Daren who looked away. Lazy to argue. Since there was no response, Joshua turned the phone back on.He moved the screen of the flat object, looking for the watch history that Daren had seen earlier.There was a news item, which read.

    Daren punched the man in the face with all his might. Not once, but twice in a row, leaving a very clear mark there.The man bounced a few meters and cursed in frustration. Daren smiled triumphantly. It was common for him to beat men who were even bigger than him.The Daren of now was not the Daren of then. The current Daren had no fear whatsoever, not even of the grim reaper coming close. The man wiped fresh blood from the edge of his lips. Losing to a stranger was a humiliating defeat for him. "You bastard!" Damm!Before the man could reply. Suddenly, gunshots rang out throughout the room. Those remaining there then scattered to save themselves."Shit! Who opened fire?" Daren swore harshly. His focus was no longer on the man, but the shot that had just been fired. His eyes darted around quickly. Searching for someone who might be the mastermind of this coincidence."There he is!"Daren caught a glimpse of a shadow dressed all in black, running in the opposite direction. Damm!!

    In the evening, Daren went back to the restaurant to meet the manager.Daren's curiosity was still very high. He was sure that this plan would go smoothly. "Sorry. You came to the restaurant this afternoon, right?" A waiter immediately recognized Daren.She came up to Daren and asked the question. "Yes. I came this afternoon to ask about the manager of the restaurant. Did he come?" asked Daren curiously. He had no intention of having dinner or just sitting back and relaxing. There were important matters, which were more interesting than eating and so on. The waiter shook his head, "I don't think the manager is coming today.""Really?" snapped Daren off and the waiter nodded confidently."That's right, sir. It seems the manager is not coming tonight. Because until now, she hasn't come... On normal days. The manager never comes late. She's always on time."The waitress, however, couldn't offer much of an explanation, as she hadn't been told by the manager whether she would be coming
