Chapter 134  What do I want

The bandages fell on the floor as he jerked his right hand to get a feel.

'There is no pain at all.' He was satisfied with the results, he could feel no pain in his hand or his shoulder.

Jack doesn't even feel any restrictions on his hands, it is like he never got injured in the first place.

He looked back at Susan's room, Nicole was standing in front of him with both of her hands on her waist.

"Where are you going?" She looked at him with a worried expression on her face. She could feel that Jack was angry and was gonna go somewhere.

She looked at the bandages on the floor and moved a step closer to him.

"Don't be stupid." She was worried for him, she didn't know the fact that Jack was already healed.

Jack placed his hand on her shoulder. "Take care of them. I will be back by night." He looked deep into her eyes.

He believed in Nicole and that she could take care of both Cassie and Susan.

Nicole looked into his eyes and sighed, She wanted to say something but stopped herself from doing so.

She could tell that Jack was serious about this and he would not stay still, till he solved the matter behind the puppet.

And she believed in him, he had never been wrong before.

"You have to promise me something first," Nicole asked with slight tears in her eyes.

"What?" Jack nodded at her.

"You will not get hurt this time." She moved one more step towards him. Her heart started to beat faster as she imagined the day she saw him in the hospital unconscious.

She didn't want to experience that feeling again, it was the worst day for her.

She would rather put herself in danger than to see something happen to Jack, she was in love with him very deeply.

"Don't worry." Jack kissed her forehead, he was grateful that Nicole cared for him so much.

"I love you." Nicole wiped her tears. "I won't be able to live without you." She leaned in and kissed him on the lips.

Jack took in a deep breath and patted her head a few times. "I will be back by night," Jack said and moved away from her.

Nicole reluctantly moved away and nodded. She felt like someone had placed a stone in her heart. 'I have to stay strong, I can't force him too much, or he might start hating me.'

She sighed and moved towards Susan's room again.

Jack looked at her for a few seconds and then moved out of the mansion with the gun tucked in his pants.

He moved towards the garage to get the car, however just as he reached there he saw that all the tires of his G-wagon were already punctured.

Jack narrowed his eyes and looked around, however, he couldn't find anyone around.

'Who did this?' He moved towards the car while pulling out the gun in his hand.

"Who is it?" He scanned his eyes around the garage and saw that all of the Cars had their tires punctured except the Tesla.

Anger flashed in his eyes as he took his phone out to call an Uber. However just as he did so, he felt a sudden force on his chest which made him stumble backwards and land on his ass.

He felt pain moving through his chest, as it became difficult to breathe.

'Fuck...' He quickly stood up and moved back while pointing his gun in front, he could tell that someone invisible had just punched him.

The small panel in front of him flashed red from where the punch came, he moved around his gun to find someone, however, he suddenly felt another punch from the right side of his face.

"Agh..." He grunted, however didn't fall this time, he was prepared for the attack. Quickly he turned his gun to the right and just as he saw the panel flash green he clicked the trigger without waiting.

"Bang...!" A gunshot resounded through the mansion and soon enough a clown puppet appeared in front of Jack, its structure limping for a few seconds and then falling on the ground.

It was the same clown that Jack faced previously.

Jack moved towards the puppet while still holding the gun in his hand tightly, he picked up his phone from the ground.

"Fuck you..." Jack kicked its head.

"What happened?" Suddenly Cassie's voice resounded behind him and Jack turned his head around.

"We heard a gunshot." Nicole, who was behind Cassie said while moving in front.

Susan was also standing behind them in silence as she looked at the lifeless puppet on the ground with a worried expression on her face.

Just now they have faced a puppet that looked like Ron and he almost killed her. And now there was another puppet that tried to attack Jack.

"Where were you going?" Cassie moved towards him and looked at the puppet.

"To deal with these things," Jack said while pointing at the puppet on the ground.

Cassie furrowed her brows at his words. "And how are you gonna deal with them?" She asked.

She didn't know who it was that tried to attack them neither she knows the power behind the puppets. She has seen these things for the first time.

She wondered how Jack was gonna deal with them.

"Don't worry, I will..." Jack said while looking her in the eyes.

Cassie furrowed her brows at his words.

"What do you mean you will... How am I supposed to believe that you will not harm yourself?" She placed both of her hands on her waist as she looked at Jack with an angry expression on her face.

"You have to trust me." Jack placed his hand on her shoulder, he couldn't tell her how he could fight with Mr Wang, or how he knew that Mr Wang was the one behind the puppets.

And he couldn't think of any believable excuse on the spot.

'Maybe in the future, I have to tell my girls that I have strange powers, but not right now.' He thought and moved his hand away from her shoulder.

Cassie looked at him for a few moments and then sighed. "Ok." She said with a dejected expression.

She wanted to help him, however, Jack doesn't believe her enough to take her with him. Or care for her so much that he couldn't bring her to a dangerous place.

Jack nodded at her and then looked at the Cars again. Susan's Tesla was the only car that remained safe.

Its tires were still not slashed.

Jack turned his head around and looked at Susan.

"Can you give me your car for a few hours?" He asked.

Susan looked at him with a complicated expression. "Promise me that you won't do anything dangerous."

"I promise that I will return safely." Jack nodded at her.

Susan gulped her saliva and went inside the mansion to take her car card out.

Soon enough Jack drove out of the mansion and towards the gun shop he previously went to get his gun.

"Hey young man, what are you looking for?" A lady with tattoos and a black tee shirt greeted him this time.

Jack looked around the store and his eyes landed on a big rifle, he then pointed at the gun.

"Barret M82, good choice." The lady said and placed the big sniper rifle in front of Jack.

"How much?" Jack looked at the lady in the eyes.

"Ten thousand and you can have bullets with it." She said with a smile, She liked that Jack was a man of fewer words, not like others who constantly ask stupid questions.

"The murder inside the apartment. Do you know anything about it?" Jack asked while Jack nodded and gave her his debit card.

Soon enough he had a big case in his hand, he also brought bullets and a magazine, for his handgun too.

He moved out of the store and went straight towards his previous apartment.

He stopped his car, just a few meters back to the entrance.

Getting out of the car he moved towards the main gate while the hand gun was tucked in his pants.

"Jack..." Soon enough he heard a warm and familiar voice.

In front of him came the guard of the apartment and Jack's previous friend, Mr Wang.

He was wearing his guard uniform and looked at Jack with a smile on his face.

"It's been a long time since I have seen you." Mr Wang said as he moved his hand in front to shake Jack's hand.

However, Jack refused to shake hands with him and kept looking silently ahead, he could see his truth panel flashing red, which meant that he had seen him recently.

"The murder inside the apartment. Do you know anything about it?" Jack asked while glancing at the apartment complex.

The old Wang noticed that Jack wasn't shaking his hand and then his smile widened. He retracted his hand and listened to his words.

"No, I have no idea who did it." He said, the creepy smile still on his face.

Jack looked at the truth meter and it still flashed red.

He took in a deep breath and moved a step back.

"What do you want from me?" Jack asked directly as he was in no mood to beat around the bush.

Old Wang's smile stayed on his face as he let out a small chuckle.

"What do you mean?" He asked.

"Don't play with me." Jack was strict in his tone.

"Hehehe..." Suddenly a creepy laughter moved out of Old Wang's mouth as he cracked his head for a few seconds.

"Follow me, let me tell you what I want." Old Wang said and started moving.
