?Chapter 201


    Leaning against the wall by the street, Lily stared at theptop on her bent knees.


    She looked up and remarked absentmindedly, "Did you think it was difficult for me?"


    "Well, it''s easy for you to find out I''m in Bridgeport. I just find it odd you''d be in the mood to track me down." The man suddenly grew interested. "Are you doing this out of guilt?"


    cing theptop on the ground, Lily slipped a hand into her pocket. "Sounds like you can hide from them on your own. Good luck, then."


    "Hey, don''t!" The man immediately begged for mercy, "Dude, I was wrong. Please help me throw off the guys after me. Some of them must be genius hackers. They can find me no matter where I hide. I''ll get arrested if you don''t help me."


    On the other end of the line was a man in a cap and a pair of sunsses. d in a ck jacket, he seemed well concealed. However, those who were familiar with him could tell from a glimpse that he was Venom of Alchos'' Elite Four.


    Venom hid in a corner of the wall and quickly nced behind him. He cussed when he saw someone catching up to him. "Fuck! They''re closing in."


    He turned around and sneaked out of a side alley while grumbling, "I would''ve fired at them, but I don''t want to cause a stir in Bridgeport."


    Meanwhile, Lily crouched and ced her phone on the ground. Putting Venom on speaker, she swiftly typed across the keyboard. Lines of code shed across the screen.


    "There''s a turn at ten o''clock. Go in.


    "At your one o''clock, jump into the courtyard. There''s ake in there. You gotta figure out how to get across it.


    "Go straight through the woods. Take a right turn and keep going straight."


    Lily, looking emotionless, popped an instruction after another in a frigid tone.Material ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Venom followed her directions and moved fast. Soon, he came to a stop at thest destination. Bewildered, he gasped. "Alchos? Why did you get me here? I''m not nning to return this soon!"


    "That''s the safest ce for now." Closing herptop, Lily informed him, "I''ve edited your coordinates. No one can track you down now."


    Letting out a relieved sigh, he relented. "Fine. Guess I have no choice but to seek refuge at Alchos for now. Thanks, bro."


    Lily always used the voice changer when she answered calls and spoke in a weathered male voice. As a result, everyone at Alchos thought she was a man.


    Grunting, she was about to hang up, but she paused and asked him, "Do you know who''sing after you?"


    "Who else can it be? They must be those bastards working for Camelot. They were always working hard to get me in turf wars at Emerald Delta.


    "I decided toe back and run some errands since they had been lying low for half a year. I didn''t fucking expect them to get the news right as I touched down at Bridgeport."


    Once Venom was safe, he was no longer in a great hurry to escape. Lighting a cigarette, he puffed and relished in the relief of the aftershock. "Camelot?" Frowning, Lily did not think it was Loid. Furrowing her brows, she asked, "So, who else have you crossed?"


    "Many." He gave it some serious thought and admitted, "I angered Camelot real bad. Last year, I bombed his base. I never thought he''d be so petty to send his men after me for a year."


    Rubbing her head, Lily felt a headache rising. "And what''s the grudge between you and Loid Laurier?"


    "Loid Laurier? Never heard of him. Don''t know him." Venom stubbed the cigarette. "I don''t retain memories of strangers. Why bring him up, though?" "Nothing." Lily rose and dusted her outfit. "I''m hanging up now."


    After the call, she mulled over the situation. "Loid likely didn''t vite any rules on Venom''s turf. It''s probably just a minor grudge," she thought. Momentster, she frowned again. How deeply should she get involved if Venom really ended up on Loid''s bad side?


    Putting away her phone in irritation, she lowered her cap and walked toward Loid. "Let''s go."


    He shot her a side nce. Holding her hand, he quietly asked, "Are you busy?"


    "It''s resolved." She looked up at him with dull eyes. He nodded and said nothing else.
