Mrs. and Mr. Smith - Chapter 641:
Chapter 641: Chapter 641: Ethan Smith appears!
What Emerson Holmes was waiting for was to entrap Ethan Smith!
As long as Ethan Smith died, he could sleep peacefully and even get rewards from the Capital City Martial Arts Association!
“No one in the world can threaten me.” Emerson Holmes’s figure hid in the dark, speaking coldly.
….
After leaving here, Ethan Smith returned to the hotel.
He stroked the black robe in his hand and said coldly, “Tomorrow, I will make them all die by my hand.”
The so-called academy would also be destroyed!
But at this moment, Ethan Smith didn’t know that the Capital City Martial Arts Association had already laid a tight dragnet.
The next day.
The surroundings of the Capital City Martial Arts Academy were silent.
Martial arts itself was a niche field, and the number of participants was very limited. Therefore, the location of this academy was also relatively remote.
A glance showed no signs of people.
Surrounding the academy were towering mountains or boundless jungles.
At this moment, eight men dressed in black and gold robes were hiding in the shade of the academy.
They stood at a high point, coldly looking at the entrance of the academy.
“Is everything arranged?” Emerson Holmes asked coldly.
“Yes, we’ve already laid a tight dragnet. Once he comes, he’ll have no escape.”
“We, the eight of us, have blocked this area with magical artifacts. Even if he grew wings, he could not escape.”
Emerson Holmes glanced at them and said coldly, “Kill him as soon as possible, and don’t give him a chance to breathe!”
“Don’t worry. We wouldn’t choose to capture him alive if we could kill him.” Someone said coldly.
Emerson Holmes lit a cigarette and took a deep breath.
His fingers trembled slightly, as if he was nervous.
Emerson Holmes knew that this was a choice.
Between the Capital City Martial Arts Association and Ethan Smith, Holmes chose the Association.
Emerson Holmes, who had originally planned to play both sides, had changed his mind.
The reason was that Ethan Smith was too restless.
Regarding the strong cultivators, he showed no respect at all. Such rebellious people usually died midway.
“From now on, I’ll leave it to you,” Emerson Holmes coldly said.
“What, you don’t plan to join?” Someone nearby asked.
Emerson Holmes scoffed, “With my strength, I can’t help much.”
“I’ll wait for your good news.”
After saying this, Emerson Holmes turned and left.
Time flies.
The surroundings of the academy were still quiet.
Ethan Smith’s figure, however, had not yet appeared.
They waited from early morning until evening, but Ethan Smith still did not appear.
This made them doubt their plan.
“Hasn’t he come yet?” Emerson Holmes walked over from the dark and asked in a deep voice.
A few people looked coldly at Emerson Holmes, saying, “We were just about to ask you that. Where is he? Didn’t you say he would definitely come?”
Emerson Holmes lit a cigarette, took a fierce puff, and then said, “Don’t panic, he might come at night.”
“I hope so,” a few people sneered.
The sky gradually darkened, and then brightened again.
However, the black-robed man they were waiting for still did not come.
“Vice President Holmes, you can’t be playing with us,” the men seemed more and more displeased.
Emerson Holmes angrily said, “Do I have the mood to play with you? I want to kill him more than any of you!”
“Then where is he!” the men didn’t let this go, and angrily shouted.
Emerson Holmes frowned slightly, with some doubts in his heart.
Could it be… that Ethan Smith had given up?
Or did he realize something was off?
“Just keep waiting. Sooner or later, he’ll come,” Emerson Holmes exhaled a smoke ring and said.
“Keep waiting? How long should we wait? What if he doesn’t come, should we wait for a lifetime?” the people said coldly.
Emerson Holmes squinted, saying, “He’ll definitely come, it’s just a matter of time.”
“Besides, since President Barnett has given me authority, you must listen to me!”
“Now I’m your superior, and if anyone dares to disobey my orders, I’ll report it to President Barnett!”
After saying this, Emerson Holmes turned and left.
After he left, the faces of the others revealed a hint of mockery.
To these black and gold robe, they didn’t care about Emerson Holmes at all.
Although Emerson Holmes was a vice president, everyone knew that his existence was meant to play both sides and maintain good relations with the big aristocratic families.
As for strength, it wasn’t worth mentioning in front of these black and gold robe.
Time passed quickly.
In the blink of an eye, another day had passed and the black-robed man had still not appeared.
This made everyone more anxious and even began to consider leaving.
At this moment, Ethan Smith had already rented a second house.
Although Ethan Smith was furious in his heart, he was not a fool.
He had some vigilance in his heart regarding Emerson Holmes.
Therefore, he did not rush to the Martial Arts Academy but chose to wait, letting the bullets fly for a while.
Ethan Smith’s idea was naturally not wrong, but Emerson Holmes was also no fool.
As someone who frequently dealt with major aristocratic families, he had a deep understanding of human nature.
In the next few days, Ethan Smith showed no intention of going to the Martial Arts Academy.
Some people suggested releasing more news to stimulate Ethan Smith, but this idea was immediately vetoed by Emerson Holmes.
“Absolutely not. Do nothing, just wait here,” Emerson Holmes said while smoking.
“Emerson Holmes, are you playing with us? He doesn’t come, and you don’t do anything?” someone coldly said.
Emerson Holmes glanced at him and hummed, “What a bunch of muscle-brains!”
“What did you say?” The people narrowed their eyes and revealed a hint of murderous intent.
Emerson Holmes was not afraid and sneered, “If we release the news now, don’t you think it’s too deliberate?”
“The reason why Ethan… the black-robed man has not appeared is that he suspects we might have set a trap.”
“Once the news is released now, even a fool could see we’re trying to lure him in.”
With these few words, the eight black and gold robe were rendered speechless.
“Fine, I’ll wait for him for three more days! If he doesn’t come in three days, we’ll report the situation to President Barnett,” the people coldly said.
Emerson Holmes kept silent, standing high and whispering, “It seems that Ethan Smith is not a reckless man. I underestimated him.”
Two more days passed, and Ethan Smith still did not come.
This made the black and gold robe completely lose patience.
They looked at Emerson Holmes coldly and said, “Emerson Holmes, although you make some sense, we won’t continue waiting here. Time is precious to us.”
After saying this, the people turned to leave.
Emerson Holmes was anxious but helpless.
However, at this moment, a dark shadow appeared in the distance.
He was moving towards the entrance of the Martial Arts Academy.
“He’s here!” Emerson Holmes stopped the others in haste!
Looking down, they saw the black-robed man walking towards them!
“He’s finally here.” The eight people turned cold, their eyes filled with intense murderous intent.
