The Bodyguard System

"…Goodbye my son. Your father and I are sorry that we cannot be with you any longer. But for your own safety, we have no choice but to leave you. Goodbye once again…"

The screen blacked out the moment that the last statement flowed out of Patricia's mouth.

Jaden did not react until a minute later, when the screen lit up once again. This time, it showed Patricia in another place. It seemed that she was in a forest, and her elegant appearance had disappeared.

She looked quite disheveled, as if she had been running. The sweat that was trickling down her face was evident that she had been doing something intense.

"I left something for you. Find the laboratory that we were working in with your father, there is something for you in there. The key is currently in the bank, Vyon bank, VIP section.

Initially, I had informed somebody else about it, and I wanted him to inform you about it, but he betrayed us. So, I decided to have it changed from the normal section, to the VIP section. This is a secret that even your father doesn't know.

The pin that is required to gain access to the key is your birthday, the month and the date. You can use your ID in order to be able to access it, as I made sure that your details were recorded.

It is not that much troublesome for you to be able to access it, even though I recorded it during the time that you had not gotten an ID. I used your birth certificate to do it. So, as long as you show your ID, you will gain access to it.

Remember, it is in Faru city's branch headquarters of Vyon bank's vault. I will not tell you the number, but once you present your ID, it should not be a problem for you to be able to access it. Goodbye once again…"

Immediately after Patricia said those words, the screen went blank. It was clear that the clip had ended.

Jaden took a deep breath while trying to calm himself down. He was extremely emotional at this moment, especially after seeing his mother.

That was to be expected considering that he had not seen his mother for more than 6 years. And now, he could hear her voice again, even though he understood that she was gone, he felt like she was here.

The memories that he had lived together with her appeared within his mind, and he remembered every moment that he had spent with her. Just as she had said, the two of them were always focused on the research, and so, the time but they gave Jaden was quite limited.

Nonetheless, Jaden could tell that they were trying to give him as much time as possible. That was why he valued the time that he spent with his parents so much.

Jaden could feel that tears were within his eyes, and were threatening to fall. Still, he managed to hold them back, not wanting to cry.

A few minutes later, when Jaden had finally regained his composure, he began thinking about what his mother had told him. Of course, he already knew about the two of them dealing with a certain project. It was just that he did not know that the project was that important, that it even attracted the attention of the government.

The most surprising thing was the issue about evolution. After the human tests, there was a group of people that had undergone evolution after taking the serum. It was just that Jaden did not know what kind of evolution they had undergone, as Patricia did not say anything about it.

Then again, Jaden was curious about who it was that had targeted his parents. He had suspected that there was something unusual about his parents deaths.

According to the reports that he had received back then, it was stated that the accident was caused by a drunk driver. But Jaden knew his parents quite well, and he knew that they did not drink alcohol.

And now, it had been proved. This was definitely an arranged accident. Everything was already premeditated. It was definitely related to this group of people that belonged to the Raven mercenary group.

Jaden's eyes turned cold upon thinking about this mercenary group. He would have to investigate about this group of mercenaries, as they were the ones that were responsible for his parents' deaths.

Even if they were not directly related to the death of his parents, they still targeted them, leading to his parents experiencing much trouble while escaping from them.

At this moment, in the list of people that Jaden had decided to deal with, the Raven mercenary group was added. They would have to be eliminated.

But they were not the only ones that Jaden would have to deal with. This company that his parents were working in before would have to be dealt with as well. As for the name of the company, he knew it. It was called, The Future Research Institute.

Jaden already knew about it, considering that it was not a secret that his parents were working in that company. So, Jaden made sure to engrave the name of this company in his mind, considering that they were the ones that had started it all.

Had they not targeted his parents, then they would not have been forced to the situation that they encountered. Additionally, they were involved in revealing information about what his parents were researching in, leading to his parents dying.

They would definitely be destroyed as well. But, that was not for now. Jaden definitely did not possessed enough capability to be able to deal with The Future Research Institute. This was a research institution that was well known within the country, and it was ranked third among all the research institutes within the country.

So, Jaden was required to have strength to compete with those big powers that could be found within the 1st tier cities first, before he could even think about dealing with this company.

As for the mercenaries, that was something that was put on hold for the time being. He would personally deal with them. But it was obvious that he did not have the capability as well.

This was a group that was being restrained within the country, but still, the government was not capable of completely restraining them. This group was one with several connections outside the country, and the members of this mercenary group were all notorious.

Jaden took a deep breath, as he finally made a decision. He would have to get a chance to go to the bank so that he could check on the key that his mother had left for him within the bank.

As for what she had left within the laboratory, he was not sure. It seemed that he would have to get there first to see what it was.

Jaden retrieved the flash disk from the laptop, before he shut down the laptop and put it away. Then, he took a shower, before he relaxed.

….

Eastern part of Faru city, Starlight hotel…

Inside one of the private rooms within Starlight hotel, there was a group of five men. It included one young man, and the rest were middle-aged men. The four looked extremely rough, and possessed bulky figures.

On the table within the private room, various dishes were laid out. It was just that none of the five people was eating, as if they did not have the appetite to eat the food, even though it was enticing.

"May I know what it is that you want to get from me this time, young master Lucas?" Second tiger asked as he looked at Lucas Brown who was seated in front of him.

It was not long ago that Lucas came looking for him. It was just that at that time, he was busy with something, and so, he had no choice but to delay the meeting between the two of them.

It was getting a little troublesome to deal with the other gang, so, he had to be careful. Immediately after he was done with that, he came over, quite curious about what Lucas wanted from him.

He could tell that just like himself, Lucas was also considered as a lackey to the person that had given him the mission. As for how important Lucas was to that person, second tiger did not know.

Lucas Brown on the other hand was having a gloomy face. The reason behind that was the incident that had happened back in campus. Additionally, he thought that second tiger delaying to come over here for a meeting was simply because he looked down on him.

Thinking about how much effort he had put in, going ahead to book a private room within this 3-star hotel, even asking for the hotel to prepare the quality dishes on the table, only to have him wait for so long, he could not help but get a little infuriated.

But when he thought about what he wanted second tiger to do for him, he immediately calmed down. He took a deep breath, as he looked at second tiger's right hand. It was wrapped in bandages as if it had been injured not long ago, considering the redness, indicating blood.

"There is something that I would like you to help me deal with. The payment is not a problem. I'll give you the deposit, half of the amount that we will agree upon, and the rest upon the completion of the mission." Lucas stated as he dropped several photos on the table.
