Anton patted his head and said, “I don't think so. I will be at school all day. Can she follow me? I think it will cause unnecessary trouble.”
Jason smiled and said, “It doesn't matter. I'll make her a student here in a minute. If she is in the same class as you, it won't cause any trouble! Besides, I have the responsibility to protect your safety! If something happens to you, we...”
It was the same old way again! When Anton saw Jason acting that way, he didn't bother to be wordy, and he said, “It's up to you!” He turned around and went back to the classroom.
The girl looked at Anton's back and said pitifully, “Seems like I am not welcome by Boss Anton!”
Jason said with a smile, “When your predecessor, Zara, was a bodyguard of Anton, he was also like this!”
“Zara...?” The girl murmured the word, and her eyes were shining with envy. Her name was Wendy, and she was nineteen years old. She was carefully selected by Jason from the Ghost Regime. She had a cute appearance, but if she really got to work, her skill might not be worse than Zara. Wendy disguised her blood-devouring nature with her lovely appearance. People in the Ghost Regime knew her nature and usually called her “Mosquito”.
After school, most people in Anton's dormitory went out to play with the female classmates they just met yesterday. Only Anton and Ben went back to the dormitory. Ben laughed and asked, “Anton, I think that Bobbi was very interested in you yesterday. Why don't you go to find her?”
Hearing this, Anton unconsciously remembered Dolores and her sister who were far away in DL. He didn't know when he could meet them again in the future. His heart was full of nostalgia and he said casually, “I have a girlfriend.”
Ben remembered the lovely girl who was looking for Anton when they were having a class just now, and he nodded in understanding.
On the afternoon of the third day, Anton received a phone call from Jason. “Anton, I am in Xuefu Hotel now. The investigation is almost done, and I have found a person, which may be useful to us!”
“Good! Wait for me at the entrance, I'll be right there!” Xuefu Hotel was owned by H. University, and its location was set up next to the college.
After Anton arrived, Jason led him to a standard double room on the fourth floor. Inside sat four Ghost Regime members and a stranger who was less than thirty years old. Seeing Anton come in, they got up one after another. Jason pointed to the man and said, “Anton, this is Lewis and he is from J City, our fellow villager. He has been in H City for five or six years and has a better understanding of the situation here.” Then he said to the man, “Lewis, this is the boss of the Anton Brotherhood, Boss Williams!”
Anton shook hands with Lewis. Lewis said preemptively, “Boss Williams, in recent years, when I went home, all the news I heard was about you. I didn't expect to meet you in H City. It's really my honor!”
“Well!” Anton looked at this person. He was not tall, with a ferret face. His eyes flashed when he spoke. Anton's first impression of Lewis was that he was not trustworthy, but Jason should have his reason. He smiled and said, “Lewis, you are too polite, and I am nothing in J City. Can I ask how you’ve been doing in H City in recent years?”
Lewis smiled and said, “Boss Williams is too modest. Everyone in Mafia of J City knows your name, Anton. Although I haven't made any achievements in H.City in recent years, I definitely know a lot of people. And I know about big or small issues in the Mafia. Ha!”
Anton understood the purpose of Jason approaching him. It turned out that this person was Jack of all trades, and unnecessary trouble could be avoided through him. He nodded and said, “Lewis, my brother, tell me the general situation of the Mafia in H City first! But I hope you won't talk to others that you saw me today. Otherwise I will be very unhappy. I believe you also know how I do things, right?”
Looking at Anton's gradually cold eyes, Lewis shook with fear and hurriedly said, “Anton, you can rest assured that I will not say anything about what had happened today.”
Anton said, “Well, you can talk about it now. Of course, I won't let you say it for nothing.”
“Yes, I know! I know!” Lewis didn't dare to underestimate this young man. The collapse of the Big Three in J City was directly related to this person. He said cautiously, “It was Uncle Joshua who used to dominate the whole H City. At that time, Uncle Joshua was really prestigious. No matter the leaders of the city or the province, or the Mafia, everyone had to extend greetings to uncle Joshua'! When guys from other provinces came to H City, they would pay a visit to Uncle Joshua first. At that time...”
“Cough!” Jason saw that he was nagging endlessly so he coughed to warn him. Lewis immediately reacted to it. He nodded with a smile and said, “Ah, Anton, look at me. You always mention old things...”
