Chapter 190 Late Hint and Immediate Action

Behind the angel was no longer a holy halo, but a dark, gloomy storm. The whole picture radiated a cold tone.

A long time later, Elena finally finished the sketch. She was stunned for a moment as she looked at her work.

In the end, she put the angel with the holy halo next to the angel that she had just drawn. Comparing them, she suddenly had the unsuppressable thought that she couldn’t let this unique man go.

On the other side, after Luke lay down on his bed in his room, he was suddenly startled.

System: You have received Reto’s appreciation. You may now learn all his abilities.

Reto’s abilities: Basic Firearms, Basic Combat… Elementary Extreme Parkour.

Elementary Extreme Parkour: Prerequisites: 20 Strength and 20 Dexterity and 1,000 credit points.

Luke was rather amused.

It was a pleasant surprise that he now had another elementary ability he could learn, but what was the deal with Reto? Shouldn’t he still be in jail?

Had Reto met his sister? Coming up with various guesses, Luke soon fell comfortably asleep.

What he didn’t know was that Reto wasn’t in prison at all, but with a young bald officer.

They had snuck into Taha’s base earlier and fought quite a lot of gangsters. In the end, they stole back the car carrying valuable goods.

While making their escape, they ran into Reto’s sister, who flagged the car down.

His sister had seen the car before, when Reto’s subordinates had stolen it at the very beginning, and she naturally recognized her brother as the driver.

After they talked, Reto and the young bald officer were dumbfounded.

Just now, they had been arguing outside Taha’s base whether they should attack it right away or do reconnaissance first.

But Reto’s sister was now telling them that Taha was already dead.

Even more shockingly, Taha had been hung right in his office without making a sound, and his top fighter had been force fed at least a pound of drugs.

Taha’s gang, which Reto and the young bald officer were both wary of, was already done

for.

Someone else would probably pick up the reins, but the gang wouldn’t be as powerful as before, and Taha would have no part in it anymore.

Reto felt very lucky.

The car that his subordinates had stolen was loaded with sensitive and dangerous goods. He would spend the rest of his life in prison if he couldn’t get the car back.

On the other hand, Taha’s gang would never stop hunting him down if he stole the car from them.

But now that Taha had been killed out of the blue, Reto’s troubles had disappeared.

Since Taha’s top fighter was dead as well, Reto didn’t think that there would be anyone who would mess with him or his sister.

Thank you, mysterious man, for saving my sister and killing Taha!

Reto was even more grateful when his sister told him that Taha had been going to feed her the drugs and turn her into a simpleton.

That was the moment when Luke received the system notification.

After Luke woke up the next morning, he met Elena and accepted her breakfast invitation.

A moment later, Luke was having coffee in Elena’s room again. He gave the more or less complete sketch a weird look. “When did you draw this?”

Elena replied, “Last night. I think it’s very cool! Not my sketch, I mean, but the vibe you were giving off last night.”

Luke was amused. “Well, I admit that I’m happy to hear that. Few people describe me as cool.”

Elena also smiled. “It’s true that you don’t usually look so cool.”

Luke shrugged. “I can’t put on a poker face all the time, can I? Playing cool is exhausting.”

Elena smiled with even more delight.

Luke, however, sighed inwardly. He had killed too many people in the past few days. Even Elena had picked up on the anomaly in his aura!

Yesterday, he himself had vaguely felt that something was wrong, so he simply set the workshop on fire in the end without killing everyone else.

He couldn’t continue on his killing spree anymore, or Elsa would also notice that something was wrong.

Furthermore, what was he going to do if he developed serious psychological issues? Go to Old Greyson for therapy?

Given all his secrets, he couldn’t turn to any psychiatrist, not even Old Greyson.

He pondered this as he chatted with Elena.

A moment later, Luke rose and said goodbye. When he reached the door, however, he suddenly turned back around. “Elena, would you like to travel around Paris with me for a few days?”

Elena’s slight disappointment immediately disappeared. “Really? You don’t need to work anymore?”

Luke shrugged. “I can finish the work today. The rest of my time here will be for fun.”

Elena nodded with a smile. “Sure, no problem.”

Luke asked, “Hm, you won’t have to skip classes, will you?”

Elena said, “We have to sketch interesting people and places in our own time. That was what I was doing in the park when we met. I still have ten more days for that.”

Luke smiled. “That’s great. Should we head out tomorrow?”

Elena nodded excitedly at first, before she suddenly shook her head.

Luke asked, “What’s wrong?”

Elena said, “Actually, we can set off right now.”

Luke nodded with a smile. “Anytime and anywhere, as long as you’re willing.”

In the next few days, Luke finally visited the Paris that he had heard about.

As far as he knew, Paris was supposed to be a beautiful city that was crowded with tourists and which had wonderful landscapes.

However, the Paris he had experienced in the past few days was full of blood, screams and criminals. It was the polar opposite of what he had heard.

As he took the subways and buses and roamed the avenues and alleys of Paris with Elena, he finally discovered for himself that the views were indeed as fascinating as described.

Luke even bought a professional camera, only because Elena was a rather talented photographer who could take much better photos than Luke.

If Luke took a photo of his girlfriend, his girlfriend would probably break up with him on the spot.

Even Elena stopped asking him to take photos after seeing several of the pictures that he had taken.

After traveling for two days, Luke proposed that they visit the sea.

Elena agreed without any hesitation. They traveled south from Paris to Marseilles by train.

Marseilles was much warmer than Paris, which was rather chilly because of the rain.

The city was warm and sunny when Luke and Elena arrived, even in January.

They traveled around the city for a day, then headed out to sea the following day on a yacht which they had booked beforehand.

Naturally, it was impossible to swim in January, when the maximum temperature was only a dozen degrees.

However, it was possible to sunbathe at noon.

Furthermore, people would inevitably get closer under the blue sky on a tranquil ocean.
