Michael looked at the mission description with a bitter expression.

He never expected this to happen. He supported his body with his right hand and sat on the ground, looking at Leo, who raised his gun and aimed it at Michael.

"You're the insect who saved the boy called Max..." Leo spoke angrily and resentfully, still pointing his gun at Michael.

"Because of you, my brother died... That man thinks you're involved with the person who killed George, but me... I don't care about any of these things. I will kill you and then torture your friend, just like that man did to my brother."

Michael didn't know what he should do. He didn't understand the reason behind Leo's threat of killing and torturing him. He was unaware of what Leo had gone through.

He felt anger and sadness at the same time. Max's condition was unknown to him, but he could still notice the small bloodstain under Max's unconscious body. He stood up from the ground, holding his left arm, which was disfigured.

"You're wrong. I didn't do anything to your brother! I don't know who killed George or the person the other one thinks I'm involved with. But I promise you, if you give me a chance to talk, you will know the exact truth. There's no need to shed blood..."

Michael was just speaking nonsense. He was trying to buy more time to think about how he could get out of this predicament.

Unfortunately, Leo was not in the mood or had the time to know the truth. He was angry that Smith killed his brother, and due to Smith's power, he dared not think of seeking revenge from him. That's why he directed his anger towards Michael and Max. Michael's expression changed when he saw Leo unlocking the safety valve. He quickly summoned the system interface and added 5 full points to the agility attribute.

The attribute panel changed, especially the speed attribute, which now became 7 points. Michael was now seven times faster than an ordinary human.

He didn't have time to indulge in the unknown power that strengthened his leg muscles. He disappeared from his spot like a ghost, reaching a speed of over 75 meters per second.

The distance between Michael and Leo was only about 20 meters. Leo didn't even have time to react. He only felt a powerful force striking his right arm.

"Aaaahhh!" He let out a painful cry and fell to the ground, holding his mangled right arm in a strange position. Michael picked up the gun from the ground and aimed it at Leo.

"N-No, please don't do this..." Leo hesitated for a moment, struggling with himself, but suddenly all those emotions vanished.

"You shouldn't have messed with me... Go to hell,"

Michael's voice echoed inside Leo's mind. He raised his hand and tried to plead with Michael, but Michael let go of his hesitation and pulled the trigger.

Bang!!

The bullet penetrated Leo's face, and the sight was gruesome and terrifying.

Michael felt like he was just something important, but he didn't know what that something was. He closed his eyes to clear his mind, ignoring the message he received from the system, and put the gun in his waist, disappearing from his spot only to reappear next to Max.

He looked at his pale friend's face, then glanced at the metal rod on the right side of Max's body. He removed his jacket and applied pressure to Max's injury, taking out his phone to call for an ambulance.

At that moment, he heard the sound of alarm sirens in the street. Michael saw, with his enhanced vision, a police car approaching them quickly.

He knew he couldn't stay there for long. He had to take Max and escape before they were discovered.

"Max, wake up!" Michael shouted in his friend's ear. "We can't stay here. We have to go now!"

But Max didn't respond. He was unconscious due to blood loss and shock. His face was pale, and his body was weak. Michael couldn't easily carry him.

"Damn it!" Michael sighed. "I can't leave you here, but I can't take you with me either!"

Just when Michael was at a loss, Max opened his eyes slightly and muttered in a barely audible voice, "Go... cough, I'm sorry..."

Michael's eyes lit up when he saw his friend opening his eyes. "Max!! Thank God, buddy, hold on a little bit, I'll get you out of here!"

Max raised his hand with all his current strength to prevent Michael from moving him and said weakly, "Cough, I got shot in my kidney. Any movement could only lead to severe complications... I'm sorry, I don't know if I'll survive this injury..."

"Don't talk!" Michael said, trying to keep his composure. "Hold on, man..."

Max shook his head and continued speaking, ignoring Michael's warning,

"It was me... "

"What do you mean, it was you!?" Michael asked with a frown.

"I'm the one who sent you the message... the pictures showing Susan and Lewis together..." Max said weakly, looking at Michael with a regretful gaze.

"What!!!?" Michael said in a trembling voice. "It was you!?"

"I'm sorry... I'm really sorry..." Max said. "I did it because I saw Susan playing with your feelings. She was just mocking you... deceiving you... exploiting you..."

To Max's surprise, Michael didn't show any anger. Instead, he closed his eyes and said gratefully, "Thank you, my brother..." Michael wasn't angry about the revelation; on the contrary, he was grateful that Max showed him the truth. He opened his eyes and saw that Max had closed his eyes and his breathing had become weak, but he was still holding on to life.

Michael relaxed, then raised Max's hand and placed it on the injury. He stood up, looked towards the approaching ambulance and police car, and said,

"I need to leave. Max's life is safe now that the ambulance has arrived, if i stay I will definitely be caught by the police."

Staying at the crime scene was foolish. Committing a murder, even if Leo was the one who attacked first, didn't negate the fact that he was innocent. Michael sighed with frustration and swiftly disappeared from his newly acquired ghost-like speed.

Whoosh!

What Michael didn't anticipate was that one of the surveillance cameras captured the entire scene. Of course, he was unaware of this fact.

He ran relentlessly until he reached the abandoned building. He sat on the ground and leaned against the wall, letting out a long sigh. Then he looked at his broken left arm and grimaced in pain.

"My body is still fragile..."

He ignored the unbearable hope and focused on the messages he had previously disregarded when he was under threat of a weapon.
