God of Crime: Strongest Mafia Boss

Chapter 197 CH 191: ORDEAL

?

Above her, in the skies, Adam frowned as he watched the situation underneath.

Aside from the car that had been following Shuri, another one appeared out of nowhere and crashed against Shuri's car in full force.

Adam was just about to completely stop the crash when he had the words from Genesis in his mind.

[Have you heard about the principle of the hero saving the beauty? What about the suspension bridge effect?"]

"Huh?"

Adam was at a complete loss for words at the sudden declaration of Genesis. He used his accelerated perception and suddenly, the world around him seemed to come to a crawl.

"What do you mean?"

Adam spoke out loud, curious about what Genesis wanted to convey to him.

[Do not save her. Wait a little and awe her then she will start worshiping you…]

Adam groaned, "Was your data corrupted by some weird glitches in the knowledge you received?"

[Think about it. Obviously, the chance of her falling for you just because of this is abysmal. But wouldn't it be rather fun to start your relationship with a heroic arc…]

Genesis did not understand the human world very much but he knew that simply being saved by someone didn't mean you would fall in love with your savior…

This was an irrational way of thinking and if it were to be real then women would only fall for cops or doctors and so on. But there was no denying that being in such a situation increased the chance of falling in love with the savior of their life.

Adam obviously also understood the suspension bridge effect.

Should I do it?

Should he use such despicable tactics to put his aunt in danger just because he wanted some free pass and found her hot?

Adam hesitated for a while before steeling himself. Either way, they needed a justification to act.

If the government knew that he killed people without any reason, this might cause some problems for him.

'At least I can hide my face. Though I wonder if they have any opinion about what happened last night.'

He thought slowly and began his descent toward Shuri's car, the car slammed at full force against her car, but using his power, Adam was able to deflect the full brunt of the impact and make sure that the car didn't even have any dents.

He could see Shuri preparing her weapon and while it was impressive, he knew very well that Shuri was no fighter and a stray ball could always end a fight in an instant if one was not careful enough.

Suspension bridge effect or whatever was not worth taking the risk of having Shuri get wounded or die stupidly. He was not about to let a loved one experience fatal danger just because he wanted to get in their pants. It was honestly not worth it.

Back to the situation at hand, when the two cars crashed against each other, the other cars began to scramble in different directions. Some onlookers started walking out, certain people even started filming or leaving without a second glance at the event.

But Adam did not care about any of that. He immediately used his telekinetic powers to twist the heads and break the limbs of the two drivers in the cars to make their last state as horrific looking as possible to the onlookers.

He didn't care that this incident didn't look like an accident but rather a murder of some sort or even a supernatural event. It was enough for them to die, he thought in his mind.

'Now… While the police and Shuri's team take care of this, I have another work to do.'

Once he made sure that Shuri was in good condition and showed no signs of being shocked, he focused on the first car that had been following Shuri from afar.

He could see them slowly leaving the area, as if nothing was wrong in the slightest but when he read their information, he immediately knew that this was not the case and that he had not been mistaken about them.

But what really surprised him, was the name of their affiliation he had managed to glean from the 'Eyes of Truth.'

"Blue Shark?"

He remembered this name. How could he ever forget this name?

This was the organisation that Yui wanted to take down.

This was the gang that was under the direct order of Hae-Won's husband.

A cold light shone in Adam's eyes. He had been quite leisurely about this whole affair initially.

After all, he had no personal stake in it. But now this was truly personal. Had he not been here, Shuri would have been wounded gravely at minimum.

If that gang leader had anything to do with this attack, he would make sure to completely and absolutely destroy the boss of this organization and leave no possibility for him to survive.

(AN: I just realized. Do I make all my characters talk too politely? I have never spoken with a native English speaker before. Do you guys even use words like Indeed when speaking? I am primarily self-taught from reading books and some basics in high school. In SHK it's normal to have this form of polite speech but I wonder if it's how modern people speak.
