Sir Ares, Goodnight novel (Jay Ares and Rose) novel Chapter 1349

"Can I know how you lost the hostage?" the young man asked with flagging interest.

Lil Nine explained, "Sigh, he's more quick-witted than I am. I tried to set him up using toxic powder, but he covered his eyes very quickly. I then tried to launch a sneak attack, but he sprinkled the powder on my face as I approached him... I couldn’t see, so that's when he took the hostage away."

The look of admiration for Jenson was written all over Sis Iris' face. "I think he has mind-reading skills. He seems to know every move that I'm about to make, then uses the easiest and most effortless way to ward off my attack. He's a really formidable opponent."

Sis Two tossed Lil Nine her eye drops. "Detoxify your eyes first before you go and settle accounts with that cunning man."

Sis Iris was only poisoned for a short period of time, coupled with the minuscule amount of toxic powder that entered her eyes, the detoxifying eye drops were able to heal her eyes very quickly.

Now that their stronghold was destroyed, the military intelligence division could only move to the third stronghold-Pegasus Anchorhold on the outskirts of the county.

The group of stunners set off for Pegasus Anchorhold. Walking at the very back of the group, Sis Iris felt something sticking out of her chest, which made her very uncomfortable.

She then remembered that it belonged to the hostage.

When Sis Iris took the sky lantern out, it was already torn apart. Lil Nine unfolded it gently, trying her best t o patch up the broken edges as much as possible.

Then, she scrutinized every corner.

It did not take long for her to find the words 'Baby Robbie' written with blood on the sky lantern.

Lil Nine was inwardly surprised. She cast a suspicious look at the young man walking in front of her. She remembered that the young man's name had the word 'Rob' in it.

Lil Nine became sensitive. After removing the soft frame of the sky lantern, she folded the paper written with the words 'Baby Robbie' neatly and put it away. 1

Mount Pearl.

After countless inch by inch searches by the Yorks' stronghold's Corvettes, Carson finally found Cole in the cliff cave. His life was hanging by a thread.

He saw Cole curled up in the puddle. The man who was obsessed with cleanliness was soiled and dirty. There was even a stinky sock in his mouth. What was even more shocking than that was that his fingernails had been peeled and tossed aside. His slender and

beautiful hands were stained with blood.

The anchorhold was located halfway up the mountain. It was quiet up there, and their meals consisted of only plain tea and simple food.

After having his first vegetarian meal, the young man started complaining.

"Why does a woman even want to become an anchoress? Their attire isn't pretty, and even their vegetarian meals aren’t as rich as what pet dogs in wealthy families eat. Also, don't they feel bored holding their prayer beads all day, chanting and praying? I really don’t understand why they would want to give up on the best things that life has to offer?"

Despite her young age, Eldest Sister was the only adult among this group of children. She was a gentle, gorgeous, and generous lady.

Eldest Sister said, "That's because you don't get it. Some people live only to be troubled by the things in the secular and mundane world, which leads to an agonizing life. The only way for them to get relief is to live beyond the worldly possessions that the mortal world has to offer."

When she said those words, her seemingly black obsidian pupils became deeper and deeper. It was as i f this was the source of all her grief and sadness at the moment.

The young man looked hopeful. "When I grow up, I'll find a soul mate and spend a blissful life with her. I don’t want to become an anchorite."

Lil Thirteen rolled her eyes at him and poured cold water on him, saying, "Military intelligence division agents can’t fall in love."
