Chapter 248 - The Hideout
Chapter 248 - The Hideout
When David turned forwards, he saw a little girl standing at the counter of the bar. She was at most fourteen years of age.
She was carrying a bottle of alcohol with a very well known and popular brand across this city.
The little girl was a bit skinny but she had started to develop all of her womanly sides, with her perky chest protruding already.
Seeing the girl looking at him with a cute eyes full of expectations, David heart shook slightly.
Such a young girl, he wondered what she was doing at a place like this. He couldn't help but imagine, what if it were his little sisters that was here, in her place.
Feeling slight pity for her, he blinked his eyes and cleared his throat.
"Give me whatever you think is good." He replied the little lady as he rested.
"Okay, a glass coming your way." She replied with a smile as she took out three bottles of alcohol and began mixing them like an expert with strength one wouldn't expect from a lass like her.
"Here is what you ordered." She gently placed the cup on the table.
"Oh, thanks. How much does a room cost here anyways?"
"A hundred star coins per night." Blinking her wide eyes, the beautiful young girl clocked her head to the side and scrutinized him.
"You're new here, aren't you?"
Feeling a little surprise, David asked. "You can tell?"
"Kind of. How many nights do you intend to stay here for?"
"I will pay for this night first, we will see how it goes from here."
"Alright. Here you go. It's room 28. Your dinner would be brought to you in a few minutes." The young lady smiled as she said to David.
"Okay." Dropping the glass of cocktail, David endured the intense burn in his throat and took out two padded notes from his pockets, dropping it in the counter.
"A fifty and a hundred. It's twenty for the drink, so you get to have 30 star coins change back."
Dusting his body, David headed to the stairs as he waved his hands. "Keep the rest of the change, I will head over to my room. Will be expecting the food by the way." Ignoring the loud chatter and noise.
Walking into the room, David rested for a bit and went straight for te he shower.
"Young sir, your food is ready." An assistant knocked on his door.
"Put it on the ground, I will come pick it up."
David was still taking a shower in the bathroom.
The assistant quietly dropped the food at the door.
David breathed lightly as the hot steam washed away his exhaustion.
The main reason he had taken up this mission was to see where is tri limit lies.
Back at the institute, he had always been afraid of showing his full strength. But here in the outside world, he could fight without restriction or reservations.
The idea of taking this mission was definitely because of this. And also to earn more Gyno points.
The next morning, David headed for the last spotted location of the one of the gang members.
The whole city was tight, bustling and populated. There were houses everywhere, buildings with broadcasting holograms on the top. Hovercars, sky cruisers, moving in the skies chaotic ally.
When he got to the location, it was a bit of an empty street since there was barely anyone there.
Asking the few people around, he got to know that one of the gang member, the second in command, had come here a few days ago, and robbed the people here off their money before he fled.
Narrowing his eyes, David spotted a barely discernible footprints on the floor. There were lots of footprints on the asphalt but this one looked familiar, almost exactly the one he had used to trace Constantine.
"Got you." David's eyes glinted as he follow the footprints.
After a few minutes of searching, David arrived In front of a sewage iron covered hole.
David frowned slightly, but he grabbed the cover, slid it to the side and hopped in to the sewer without hesitation.
Constant water dripping noises occasionally echoed within the sewers.
This was where the foot steps ended.
He then began searching for the gang member.
"Boss, someone entered the Darkdorm sewers."
In a particularly open area, built like a small village still in the same sewers, but in different levels. A man ordered a skinny looking man that appeared to be a newly advanced Phaser.
"Bring up the surveillance feeds."
"Yes boss!"
With that, the skinny man typed in various commands on his imprint and a general seen holographic image popped up in the air.
In the image, a black cloaked youth with an incredibly young feature could be seen walking along the path of the sewerage.
"It's just a stupid youngster. He seems to only be at the Spryher stage. Let's go take care of him. Don't kids like this sell for a high price? I must say we are in luck today." The skinny man laughed loudly.
Taking out a large blade from his side, he jumped out from the hideout.
This seen to be the hiding spot of the gang and it turned out that some of them had chosen to hide in this incredible hiding spot. While some of them had chosen to flee as they couldn't operate in this city anymore.
They would be spotted immediately and be surrounded by several bounty hunters or the cops, it wasn't worth staying at a place like this anymore.
The black coated youth was naturally David. He was observing the surroundings, looking for clues in this place.
Suddenly dozens of people came jumping down from the top, unexpectedly.
The skinny man pointed at David and shouted.
"Capture him quickly and let's get out of here fast."
"Alright boss, we will do it." Two underlines that were still Spryhers volunteered with a laugh.
David's eyes flashed.. He naturally didn't give up and struggled very hard but he eventually still got knocked out by one in a single strike.
