Chapter 918: Memorial Park

Upon verifying that the scorched black mark had disappeared, they discovered that the only thing remaining was the tire track of a bike. Despite some initial disbelief, Lin Rui and Bucky ultimately accepted that the source of the flame must have been a bike traveling at an extremely fast speed.

Upon confirming this situation, Lin Rui suddenly realized that Johnny, who seemed very skilled, is actually an expert at driving a bike. Could it be that the fire from the previous night was caused by Johnny driving his bike on the road and that he had used strange means to kill an innocent person in a small town far from Rochester?

Despite the challenges, Lin Rui and Bucky have spent the night tracking the situation and have already gathered some clues so neither of them are willing to give up. With Bucky’s skilled investigation, he quickly discovered what probably happened here not long ago.

“It appears that the bike stopped here and was then pushed away from this location,” Bucky concluded after examining the area around the spot where the scorched black mark had disappeared.

“Alright, let’s go take a look,” Lin Rui said, clenching his fists upon hearing the results of Bucky’s investigation.

“Sure thing,” Bucky replied before walking quickly to the side of the car.

When he returned, Bucky had strapped several tactical grenades to his waist and was carrying a submachine gun. Lin Rui gave a subtle twitch at the sight of Bucky’s weapons but said nothing. He knew that they might encounter a dangerous situation, and Bucky’s weapons were a necessary precaution.

“Let’s go,” Bucky said as he passed Lin Rui, carrying the submachine gun.

“Oh, okay,” Lin Rui responded, and the two of them set off towards a nearby cemetery, following the tracks of the pushed-away bike.

As Lin Rui and Bucky drove their jeep to the spot where the scorched black marks had disappeared, they got out of the vehicle and followed the clues toward a roadside cemetery. In the depths of this cemetery, Johnny had just awoken from his unconscious state.

After drinking some water, he got up and left the strange room he found himself in.

Pū! Pū! Pū!

Suddenly, Johnny heard a noise as he emerged from the building and saw an old man with white hair wielding a hoe in the cemetery. Johnny, who had just undergone his first transformation, was feeling extremely uncomfortable and he wanted to return to his familiar surroundings to rest. He still couldn’t believe what had happened the previous night. But despite the many doubts in his heart, Johnny still decided to approach the old man.

“Are you alright?” The old man put away the hoe in his hand and asked as Johnny approached.

“I’m good, I feel like my skull’s on fire but I am good, thanks for the water. Did you see my bike?” Johnny said quickly in a hurry to get out of there and he hadn’t seen his bike yet.

However, after hearing Johnny’s words, the old man showed a meaningful smile on his face. And as he was very upset because of what happened last night, Johnny was very displeased with the old man’s smile.

“Did I say something funny?” Johnny asked bluntly, annoyed by the old man’s smile.

“It’s just ironic, we are all big on the irony here. Your bike is by the shed there,” The old man replied lightly, still smiling.

“Thanks.” After thanking him, Johnny turned around and prepared to retrieve his bike and leave here.

However, just as Johnny turned to leave, the old man spoke again. “It’s normal,” he said.

“What do you mean?” Johnny was even more confused.

“You are wondering if your bike looks normal? It does. And to answer your other question, last night did happen, it wasn’t a dream, and it will happen again.” Amid Johnny’s doubts, the old man said, addressing the questions that were on Johnny’s mind.

“Who are you?” Johnny asked warily, suspicious of the old man’s words.

“The question you should be asking is, who are you?” The old man countered, avoiding Johnny’s question.

Hoo!

Without further hesitation, Johnny turned and strode towards the warehouse as he didn’t want to talk anymore. As he walked away, the old man leaned on his shovel and seemed as if he was about to say something more, but his eyes flickered and he remained silent. This was because two unexpected guests had just entered the quiet cemetery. In the direction Johnny was heading, a middle-aged man who was just as tall as Johnny and a young man who looked like a high school student walked in slowly.

The look in the old man’s eyes shifted as he saw the two people enter the cemetery. He was cautious, but not too concerned. He had been guarding the cemetery for many years and remembered clearly who had come and gone from here. These two people were definitely newcomers. Moreover, the middle-aged man wearing a baseball cap looked like a soldier and he seemed to be in some kind of special forces.

As Johnny walked through the cemetery, he also noticed the two newcomers. When he saw them clearly, he stopped suddenly. Unlike the old man behind him, who was merely cautious, Johnny was on high alert. These two people had appeared during his speed challenge, and the young man had even shaken hands with him in the background.

It was the special energy emanating from the young man that had prompted Johnny to leave quickly. But he still hadn’t managed to escape, and Mephisto had followed him. Therefore, Johnny’s defenses were much stronger towards these two people who had reappeared in front of him. It was clear that they were targeting him.

“You guys! Who the hell are you?!” Johnny yelled angrily, pointing at them as they approached.

Upon hearing Johnny’s words, the old man standing behind him had a wild look in his eyes and clenched the hoe in his hand tightly. However, he did not take any action immediately. This was because he felt that these two people did not seem to be a threat.

When Johnny shouted angrily, the two people had already walked up to him. Just as Johnny was very vigilant towards them, they were also a bit defensive upon seeing Johnny. After all, they had experienced the power of the fire that had raced past them the previous night. As for the Johnny in front of them, they couldn’t be sure what kind of strange abilities he might have, given the tragic death of the innocent man in the factory.

“Who are we? Didn’t we introduce ourselves before? Johnny, I’m Jackson, and this is my uncle, Steve.” Hearing Johnny’s angry shout, the high school student standing in front replied with a smile. The two people who had suddenly appeared in the cemetery were Lin Rui and Bucky, who had followed the clues.
