Winner Takes All

The whole night.

Jack Hughes, Mr. Ward, and Brent were taking turns to guard the door of the ward.

This was the most efficient way to save their energy.

Daisy Hill was staying in the ward all the time. She was the last line of defense.

At late midnight, Rosie also woke up. The doctor had checked her current condition and it was not a big deal.

After the Mysterious Man settled the Iga Ninja Lord and left with injuries, he hadn't appeared again.

Jack had learned what had happened from Brent and Daisy.

Jack wasn't surprised. He had fought with Iga Tobikou. He knew how terrifying the strength of Iga Ninja Lord was.

However, he also knew that Iga Tobikou had taken him lightly at first when he fought with him.

Otherwise, they were both Ninja Lord. That Iga Ninja Lord could let the Mysterious Man injured but Iga Tobikou was killed by him.

In the end, Iga Tobikou should have come back to his senses. However, he was already defeated and he couldn't turn the tide. When it was dawn.

The Mysterious Man finally appeared.

At the moment, Jack was on duty to guard the ward. Mr. Ward and Brent went back to another ward to take a rest temporarily. "Did you kill the Iga Ninja Lord last night?"

When they just met each other, The Mysterious Man was stunned as he asked.

Jack nodded, "Iga Tobikou."

"Heh, he had taken you lightly."

The Mysterious Man laughed and said it straightforward.

Jack had already expected this in his mind. He wasn't surprised by his words.

"He is also Ninja Lord. If he didn't take the enemy lightly, even I would have been injured, let alone you."

The Mysterious Man sat on the bench.

Jack glanced at the injuries on the Mysterious Man's body, "Because you are injured, then you finally come out?"

"Yeah."

The Mysterious Man didn't hide and he directly admitted, "The situation is too dangerous. I am already injured. If I still stay in the dark, it would be difficult for me to hold on alone."

"I have asked Daisy to contact you to show yourself at first," Jack said helplessly.

The Mysterious Man shook his head, "You don't understand. In the dark, I have more freedom to perform any action. It also reduces the risk of me being exposed." "You don't have to be afraid."

Jack smiled and teased, "You have been following me for so long. You have always disguised your whole body. I and the people around me don't know who you are. Probably, the others couldn't know too."

"That's not true."

After waiting for a while, the Mysterious Man said, "Bear with it until today ends. Return home early tomorrow morning. South Maine is not a place to stay for a long time. Tomorrow morning I will stay in the dark to cover you all to leave. You don't have to worry about my safety."

"Okay."

Jack nodded.

It was a Bloody Trap. He didn't dare to be careless.

Even if they were retreating, he didn't dare to be careless. It was a precautionary measure that he let the Mysterious Man stay in the dark to secretly cover them to retreat.

Otherwise, if there was danger on the way to the airport, there would be a lot of random problems.

There were more than a thousand people from the office from the Hughes family and Grand Freemasons from South Maine. They could still completely guard the hospital by surrounding the hospital. However, when they retreated tomorrow, it would be a big commotion to be escorted by a thousand people. It would affect a lot.

Furthermore, the real Masters would never care about these thousand people.

"Go and have a rest. I will guard here. I have rested all night. Guarding here for a while isn't a big deal for me." The Mysterious Man said.

Jack didn't reject him.

Although Brent, Mr. Ward, and he were taking shifts this night. However, they had to concentrate and pay full attention while guarding the door of the ward. It was really tiring. After waiting for Jack to enter the ward.

The Mysterious Man rubbed his nose and his eyes looked deep when he looked at the door of the ward that was closed.

Under the light, his lips twisted into a curve and he showed a strange smile.

Compared to the hidden murderous intention yesterday.

The whole daylight today seemed extraordinary peaceful.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.

However, Jack and the others couldn't feel happy.

There was always a period of calm before the storm came. The calmer the day meant the night would probably have more dangers.

Looking at the nightfall.

Brent said with a deep voice, "I think it would be a dangerous night."

"Or maybe not."

The Mysterious Man shook his head, "Many killers are hiding in the dark. They had seen the fate of the Iga. The hospital is obviously not the best place to assassinate us..." Upon hearing that.

Mr. Ward, Daisy, and Brent looked serious.

Then, they said at the same time.

"On the way back tomorrow?!"

The Mysterious Man nodded.

"The best chance to assassinate us is on the way back tomorrow."

Jack had met the Mysterious Man in the morning.

The two Iga Ninja Lords were both dead in the hospital.

Obviously, it had alerted the other killers who were hiding in the dark.

The killers could ignore the protection of the thousand people around the hospital.

However, they definitely didn't dare to take the few people in the ward lightly.

Jack slowly said with a serious tone, "In the hospital, we only have to protect this ward. However, on the way back tomorrow, we would at least have to stay in two cars." Upon hearing that.

Mr. Ward and the others looked sullen.

Even Steve Knight and his family's facial expressions had changed.

Even they could understand the meaning of Jack's words.

They only needed to pay attention to this room when they were staying in the same ward.

However, when they were on the road, they had to be split into two cars. That meant their attention would be divided into at least two.

What was more? There was so much uncertainty while driving on the road.

The Mysterious Man let out a breath heavily, "Don't worry. I have discussed this with Jack. Tomorrow, you will leave first. I will hide in the dark before dawn. I will secretly cover you all when you leave. The result that how many killers that I could delay depends on our luck."

When he said the words.

It seemed like the air in the ward stopped flowing.

Everyone was worried.

They were anxious about the danger that might appear tomorrow.

Even if the Mysterious Man would hide in the dark to cover them secretly.

However, tomorrow... who knew how many Masters from the hidden forces would be hiding in the dark while looking at them?

Even though the Mysterious Man was strong, it was impossible for him to stop every killer.

Jack's right thumb and forefinger gently rubbed against each other.

He slowly said the words, "Mr. Ward, go rent three buses tomorrow. We will get on one bus. The other two buses will act as cover."

"Yes, young master!"

Glowing light could be seen in Mr. Ward's eyes. Then, he hesitated and said, "Then what about the people from the office of Hughes family and the people of Grand Freemasons in South Maine? How will we arrange them?"

Jack said, "Fifty people will follow us. The others will follow us secretly until the private plane takes off from the airport."

He didn't want to exaggerate the scene. The group of cars formed by a thousand people spreading out on the road would make a big commotion. It would make more unnecessary attention and trouble. However, it would be unwise to completely give up the thousand people to escort them.

This arrangement was a compromise that he had been thinking about for a long time during the day.

After Mr. Ward placed his hands together to answer.

Jack looked at everyone.

His tone was calm. However, it seemed like an imperial edict. He was so determined as he had let everyone stop breathing and he didn't allow anyone to rebut.

"Tomorrow morning, once the danger appears, I order you all to take Amber's safety as the first priority mission. I would be the third priority to be protected after my father-in-law and mother-in-law."0000
