Puppeteer: I Use Human Puppets to Create Perfect Accidents - Chapter 40
Chapter 40: Log Into The Dark Net, New Mission!
Under such circumstances, although the girl’s parents were furious, there was nothing they could do. They could only try their best to appeal and protest day after day.
And they had to endure the cold gazes from the people around them.
However, the result from the demonstration was minimal.
In the end, the two of them were exhausted. In addition to the frustration and humiliation in their hearts, they finally fell ill on the bed.
After witnessing all of this, the girl’s brother could no longer hold back his anger.
Since the law could not punish these bad guys, he would have to rely on himself.
Driven by this thought, he risked himself and actually rushed directly to Smith’s company with a sharp blade in his hand, intending to forcefully break into Smith’s office.
However, there were countless bodyguards around Smith, and all of them were veterans of the special forces.
Before he could even see Smith, he was taken down by his bodyguards.
His actions had completely angered Smith.
To him, they were just a group of shameless, ungrateful lowlifes.
He directly ordered his subordinates to break the man’s legs and throw him out.
He even said, “If this man dares to come and look for Johnson again, send his entire family to accompany that young girl!”
He was unbridled and extremely arrogant!
Just like that, the girl’s brother was sent to the hospital, and his injuries were extremely serious. The doctor diagnosed that he had a comminuted fracture and could only lie on the bed for the rest of his life as he was unable to stand up again.
In an instant, the successive blows caused the middle-aged couple to age by more than ten years overnight.
They hated the father and son who had ruined their family to the bone!
They wished they could eat their flesh and blood, break their bones, suck their marrow, and sleep on their skin!
They could not live under the same sky!
However, they knew very well that, with their insignificant strength, it was very difficult for them to seek revenge for their children.
However, just as they were feeling hopeless, they suddenly found out about the existence of the dark net!
Instantly, the middle-aged couple was overjoyed as if they had found a treasure!
They immediately sold all of their assets.
They managed to scrape together a total of 500,000 US dollars!
Although the amount was relatively small, and perhaps no one would accept this mission as the difficulty of the mission was severely mismatched with the amount of the reward… However, the two of them still registered their accounts and posted the mission on the dark net with a glimmer of hope!
They prayed that someone would accept the mission and avenge them.
After all, this was their last hope.
Other than that, they really didn’t know what else they could do.
…
On the other side.
On the sofa.
Hughes looked at the puppet that he had just completed in his hand with satisfaction.
He discovered that his sculpting skills had improved very quickly recently.
Before that, he would have taken a few hours to complete the puppet.
Now, it would only take half the time.
He put down the puppet, stood up, and stretched his back.
Then, he walked to the computer, logged into the dark net, and browsed.
He had been idle for a long time recently, and he couldn’t wait.
For him, now, his sister’s illness had been cured.
Earning money was no longer his main goal. Instead, he was pursuing his own strength and the pleasure of punishing the wicked.
Soon, after carefully browsing the website, Hughes’ pupils constricted. He was attracted by a mission.
[Mission: Kill Smith, and his son, Johnson!]
[Reward: 500,000 USD!]
[Assassin Level Requirement: None!]
[Remark: As long as you can kill this father and son, any amount is fine. Although we only have 500,000 dollars now, please believe that we will work day and night for the rest of our lives to make up for the rest of the money!]
Seeing this mission, the first thing that came to his mind was the news that had caused an uproar recently.
After all, although his main job was to make puppets, he was not an otaku who did not pay attention to the outside world.
He still paid attention to the current issues to ensure that he was not out of touch with society.
Under such circumstances, Hughes analyzed it for himself.
He felt that if the news was true, Smith and his son had really done such a thing that aroused indignation among people.
Then, even if they didn’t give him the money, he would definitely erase them from this world.
Moreover, he had recently received a reward from his Puppet Manufacturing System.
Substitute Puppet!
Just looking at the description, he couldn’t help but get excited.
This was a good opportunity to test the power of the Substitute Puppet!
Hughes returned to his senses, and his gaze locked onto the bounty mission in front of him.
According to his analysis, this bounty mission must have been issued by the family of the girl who died tragically.
However, even though he thought so, Hughes did not impulsively accept the mission.
After all, he had no right to speak without an investigation.
He believed in no one and only himself.
Whether Smith and his son were guilty or not, he wanted to personally prove it with his Dreamland Puppet!
This was where his bottom line laid!
He would never kill the innocent and become a devil who only knew how to kill blindly!
Thinking of this, Hughes made up his mind.
He began to search for information about the Smith father and son, thinking about how to approach them.
And just as he was thinking, suddenly, a phone rang.
He casually took out the phone. He was stunned at first, but then he smiled and said, “Okay, I got it. Don’t worry, I’ll be there as scheduled.”
“Okay, that’s settled then. Bye!”
After hanging up the phone, Hughes rubbed his chin and started thinking.
It was actually Alice who called him and asked him to meet for dinner.
However, from the phone, Hughes could hear that Alice’s voice was very depressed, as if she had encountered a major setback.
After the last encounter, he went back and immediately investigated this old classmate of his.
After all, she was a police officer, and he was a professional killer!
How could he not be cautious?
And to his surprise, Alice was not only a police officer, but she was also a very outstanding police officer.
Impressively, she was already the head of the Criminal Investigation Department of the Gotham City Police Department.
It seemed that his old classmate was very outstanding in her own ability.
Thinking of this, Hughes’ eyes suddenly lit up.
Alice was the head of the Criminal Investigation Department, so she must have known about the girl’s tragedy.
It was very likely that she was the one who was investigating it.
In this case, if he wanted to know more about the incident, wasn’t it just right for him to start with her?
As he thought about it, Hughes couldn’t sit still anymore. He immediately grabbed his coat and put it on, then strode out to meet Alice.
