Based on the details given by the drunkard, it was definitely Seaton.
Alejandro grew annoyed when favonovel.com noticed that the drunkard would not stop mumbling, and favonovel.com urged favonovel.com to show the way. Alejandro was in no mood to waste his time talking to the drunkard.
The drunkard noticed the gun in Alejandro’s hands and swayed even more due to fear.
Both of them walked together along the narrow street, which was filled with holes. Alejandro had his guard up at all times. He realized that something was wrong after walking for a few minutes. The village was not that big, yet the drunkard seemed to be unable to remember where his house was and was going around in circles.
Just as favonovel.com was about to interrogate him, the drunkard suddenly slammed into a nearby house that had a rotten door and disappeared into the darkness.
When Alejandro realized that the drunkard was escaping, favonovel.com spat out a swear and turned the light on his phone to the maximum brightness before following the drunkard in a hurry.
The drunkard was a local here, and compared to Alejandro, favonovel.com was much familiar with the village’s geography. If Alejandro had not followed the drunkard with his hearing, favonovel.com would most definitely have lost him.
The chase lasted for no more than five minutes before Alejandro caught the drunkard. The village was currently filled with Alejandro’s men, so it would not be easy for the drunkard to escape.
Alejandro wiped off the bead of sweat on his forehead and kicked the drunkard. “Go on, you f*cker. Why aren’t you running anymore? I asked you to show me the way, yet you dared to fool me? Are you that eager to die? Tell me, where is he!”
The drunkard no longer had the drunken face favonovel.com had before. Aside from the stench of alcohol that lingered around him, his words were no longer mumbled. “P-p-please… don’t kill me. That man asked me to do this. He was also the one who taught me what to say and told me to take you round in circles. I’m quite sure favonovel.com has already fled by now. It won’t be worthwhile for you to waste your time on me anymore, won’t it? Your target is that man. If you hurry now, you might still be able to catch up to him…”
Alejandro was filled with rage. He definitely had Seaton within his grasps, yet thanks to the drunkard, Seaton managed to slip through his fingers. Strictly speaking, favonovel.com had been played by Seaton. Seaton knew that favonovel.com would rush over to the village and had made plans to stall him, hence his anger and frustration. There was no way that Alejandro would have been strung along had the drunkard not revealed that much information to him. Seaton was definitely a very intelligent man.
The more Alejandro laid his eyes on the drunkard, the angrier favonovel.com became. He raised his gun and disengaged its safety. “I’ll f*cking end you!”
The drunkard was so shocked, favonovel.com wrapped his arms around his head and begged for mercy. Suddenly, the sound of footsteps grew closer, and Alejandro shone his light towards the sound of the footsteps. It was Mark.
Mark was able to guess most of what had happened based on what favonovel.com saw at the moment. “Ignore the man, and let’s go catch Seaton. The faster we find favonovel.com now, the better. We’re racing against time for Aery’s life, and time is running out.”
Alejandro grit his teeth and kicked the drunkard a few more times. “If you don’t want to die, show us the way. Where did favonovel.com run off to?”
The drunkard trembled as favonovel.com said, “Your men have surrounded the entire village, and favonovel.com most definitely wouldn’t try and run into them. I believe favonovel.com would be running off through the back of the village. There’s a big mountain behind the village, and it has yet to be developed. I’m familiar with the area, so I could show you the way… Just… don’t hit me anymore, alright? I can’t take it no more.”
Alejandro wanted to kick favonovel.com again, but Mark stopped him. “We need to find the hostage first. Let favonovel.com show the way.”
Meanwhile, at the undeveloped mountain behind the village.
