The Rise of a Master: It Starts With Rejection

Chapter 793

On a rainy night, a coaster bus cruised down the provincial highway. From the outside, all passengers appeared to be sleeping, creating a stark contrast with the pounding rain.

Felix was among them, but he was the only one with open eyes. Earlier at the clinic, he had realized that to catch a lion, one had to enter its den. After questioning Tom, he learned that Tom had scheduled a transport for tonight, so he infiltrated the group. Tom was driving, still with a silver needle embedded in him-though a different one. This served two purposes: avoiding suspicion and making sure Tom understood that his relief was still in Felix's hands.

The new needle would only cause agony once in a day when urinating. While this lifted most of his nightmare, his fate remained in Felix's control. So, he would not dare do anything rash.

Before boarding, everyone had been given a bottle of liquid that quickly induced sleep. These people had not shown any fear. After all, they had each received 10,000 dollars in cash and promises of new jobs with monthly salaries starting at the same amount. Behind these lies lurked a horrifying reality none of them suspected.

Shortly after turning off the highway, the bus stopped. Tom glanced back before stepping out.

This was the usual routine. They would reach a fixed location, with Tom leaving in a following car, knowing nothing about the bus' subsequent journey.
