The Bodyguard System

Chapter 165: Escape

Bam!

Second tiger crashed into another person. Immediately, the two of them collapsed onto the ground, while the entire room descended into a moment of silence.

Nobody had anticipated that something like this was going to happen. Well, Scarlet had already anticipated that Jaden might be able to deal with second tiger, but she did not expect that he was going to be able to deal with him so easily.

With just three attacks, he had been able to take down second tiger. There was no any form of resistance from second tiger when he was being handled so easily by Jaden.

As for the rest of the people within the room, they were rendered speechless, by the actions that had happened one after the other. They had never expected that Jaden's capability when it came to combat was at such a high level.

So, when they saw that he easily dispatched second tiger, they could not help but wonder if second tiger was just playing around. After all, wasn't it so easy for Jaden to be able to take care of him?

Additionally, thinking about the fact that this guy had been bragging not long ago, only to be beaten up in just three attacks that he had given Jaden, wasn't that a joke?

Second tiger on the other hand was in a complete stupor. Just like the rest of the people within the room, he had not expected that he was going to be beaten in such a way and so quickly.

Previously, even though he believed that Jaden possessed quite some capability when it came to fighting, he did not expect that Jaden was so strong. Those attacks, for the first one, even though it was quite light as compared to the other two, still, it still packed quite a punch.

As for the other two attacks, especially the last one, he did not even want to think about it, considering that the pain that his body was currently undergoing was all related to those attacks.

He struggled, managing to get off the body of the person that he had crashed into. When he looked clearly, he realized that it was the person that he had given the gun, before the fight began.

The pain that he was undergoing did not allow him to be able to get back on his feet at all. Despite himself being strong, the attacks that Jaden had launched at him were way out of his league.

Lucas was just like the rest of the people within the room. Initially, he had been planning that when the fight began, he would immediately pull Scarlet with him, so that they could leave.

As for the matter of Scarlet being able to resist him while pulling her away, he did not even think about it. In any case, he believed that all those Scarlett was more skilled when it came to fighting, she could not compete with him when it came to raw strength.

But now, he was too stupefied to be able to even think about pulling Scarlet out of this place. Second tiger, the person that he knew, the strongest person that he knew in his life so far, was actually easily dealt with just like that?

Of course Lucas could not believe what was happening. He was already on his feet, ready to pull Scarlet out of the room, but now, he did not even dare to do that.

Jaden on the other hand did not care about the reaction of the people around him. Instead, immediately after he kicked second tiger away, he rushed towards them.

Just a few moments after the two of them had landed onto the ground, Jaden had already arrived at the scene, and picked up the gun that had been dropped onto the ground upon the moment that second tiger crashed onto the person that had been given the gun.

After picking up the gun, Jaden did not linger around anymore. Instead, he immediately went towards Scarlet, and pulled her towards the exit. They could no longer continue staying here.

Even though he had been able to easily deal with second tiger, rendering him immobile all the time being, Jaden did not know how many people would be around, and how many would be having guns in this area.

So, it was better for them to leave right now, rather than continuing to stay around. Otherwise, if several guns were pointed at them, then things would get even more difficult for him.

Scarlet had not expected Jaden to pull her, but still, she followed him, and the two of them left the room hurriedly. The rest of the group immediately followed after a moment of silence, Ruby included.

Second tiger's men did not take action to go and stop Jaden and his group from leaving, instead, all of them approached second tiger, intending to know his condition.

Second tiger on the other hand was not in a condition to speak at all. The pain that he was undergoing was extremely tremendous. Not to mention the belly pain that was coursing through his entire body, even his entire left arm had been dislocated by the shoulder, when Jaden threw him.

Even though Jaden did not directly attack him during the third attack, still, the crash landing was something very painful, especially when he landed by crashing into somebody else.

Jaden and the rest of the group managed to get out of the building, and passed the group of gangsters, when Jaden pointed a gun at them, and the group immediately retreated, allowing them to leave.

When they got to the area where they had left the vehicles before, they got inside them, and left. Ruby also got inside the vehicle that had been used to bring her over, and used the key that she had picked up at some point in time during the time that they were inside the building, before she drove the vehicle, while following Scarlet's Ferrari f8.

The group was driving at a high speed, as they wanted to get out of this area as soon as possible. After all, the tiger gang was not simple. For them to be able to possess guns, it would not be impossible for them to start shooting at them. After all, why would they have guns if they did not dare to use them?

Finally, after more than 10 minutes of driving, they had already left the eastern part of the city, and were approaching the city center. With that, they were finally relieved. While the eastern part of the city was where the majority of the criminals were located, still, the center of the city was quite secure.

The police might be able to ignore the activities happening within the Eastern part of the city, but the same could not be said about the central part of the city. That was the heart of the city, and there was no way that the government was going to allow any form of violence, or disruption of activities at the heart of the city.

Jaden was also relieved. It could be said that leaving just like that was a risky move. After all, he was not sure if there was anybody else within the room who was having a gun.

In case one of them pulled out a gun during the time that they were rushing out of the building, it would be impossible to predict if they could have survived or not.

Nonetheless, it seemed that they were quite lucky, considering that nobody possessed a gun, other than the one that he had picked up. So, they were able to get away safely this time.

Still, Jaden believed that it was going to be more than this. This was definitely not going to be the end of this skirmish with second tiger. That guy would definitely come looking for him again.

Of course, Jaden was not a person that was going to sit around, while allowing others to attack him. Instead, since he already knew that he was an enemy, then, he would take the initiative to deal with any hidden danger.

Dealing with second tiger was not that much of a problem for Jaden. He currently possessed enough capabilities to be able to deal with second tiger. So, he would definitely take the chance, and deal with them as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if second tiger continued being around, then, Jaden's life would be at great risk. No matter what, he had to ensure that the tiger gang was dealt with, especially second tiger.

After reaching the city center, everybody finally headed towards their own destination. While Scarlet and Jaden headed towards the Johnsons manor, the others including Lucas immediately headed their own way.

Lucas had followed the group to leave that place. He could not allow himself to be associated with the second tiger, as that was going to cause him trouble. Having already seen how powerful Jaden was, he did not dare to continue with the plan for the time being.

He would have to change the plan when it came to dealing with Scarlet later on. But for now, he had to play low. He could not allow Jaden to know that there was a deal between second tiger and himself.

While Jaden was driving the car, he immediately realized that there was a car that was following behind them. He already knew who the driver was, and he could not help but be perplexed about the reason why they were being followed.

After about 5 minutes, when Jaden realized that Ruby did not seem to have the intention of going in another place, he parked the car at the side of the road. Ruby also did the same thing, and when Jaden got out of the car, she corresponded with the same action.

"Why are you following us? Don't you have somewhere that you can go to?" Jaden asked as he looked at Ruby scrutinizingly.
