Chapter 398 - 7.88 An Eye For An Eye?
Sometimes, instinct was really a scary thing.
Lu Yizhou had had the feeling that something like this would happen. If he were to put himself in Zion’s position, against an enemy that was stronger, had better resources and sharper wits, what would he do? He would search for a weak link first.
Lu Yizhou’s first thought was that Zion would try to target him because it was apparent that Moshe treated him differently from others. But then, if Zion really attained the original plot, he would notice that ’Aiden’ was not supposed to exist anywhere near Moshe. Adding on to the incident at the charity auction, if Zion still had a few good brain cells, he would realize that targeting Lu Yizhou was not the best option.
But then if not Lu Yizhou... then who?
[666: Sheesh, Host. 666 doesn’t know whether to call you brilliant or terrifying.]
The corner of Lu Yizhou’s lips twitched as he looked at the moving coordination on the phone screen. It was not Aiden’s phone, of course. Let alone using GPS, that phone couldn’t even sustain any messaging application. The phone Lu Yizhou was holding onto was Ezra’s — one of his spare, to be exact.
For the daring act he had attempted toward Moshe last night, Lu Yizhou couldn’t not teach him a lesson or else his heart wouldn’t be at ease. He had planned to kill Ezra by shooting him the same way as how he tried to shoot Moshe but in the end, Lu Yizhou thought of better use of him.
Ezra wouldn’t be able to exact his revenge if not for Moshe’s help, so it would be reasonable for him to pledge his life and loyalty to Moshe, right? Well, if the process to rope him into the act involved sneaking into his house at wee hours in the morning after making sure that Moshe was sound asleep, a few good punches here and there, as well as alternating between soft and harsh threatening remarks, then nobody ought to know that except Lu Yizhou, 666 and Ezra himself.
"I don’t need you to do anything difficult." Lu Yizhou had said to him last night after he had beaten Ezra black and blue. "From now on, you will follow Kaede. I don’t care what kind of method you use. As soon as you realize something is off, immediately send me a signal of your last location. Understand?"
Ezra nodded and wiped the blood off his lips. "Y–Yes..."
So here he was, having his gut feeling proven right as soon as the news of Kaede’s disappearance reached Moshe’s ears. Lu Yizhou let out a sigh. The coordinate was still moving, meaning that Ezra had either hid himself very well of the enemy was too stupid not to notice his presence.
