Chapter 64 I Believe in You
"Master Eight, the three families have all fallen, and those who have been watching should take
action now!... Should we do something in advance?"
"Yeah, Ozin is about to enter a turbulent period again!" Damon puffed away on his cigarette and
continued, "Let''s go find Derek!"
Ezio followed closely behind after a brief hesitation.
Meanwhile, Billy and Casey drove to Harleen''s house.
"Billy, did you hear? Something huge happened in Ozinst night!" Felicia eximed loudly as soon
as they entered the house.
"What happened? Tell us about it!" Billy smiled and asked.
"You don''t know?" Felicia continued loudly. "Everyone in Ozin was discussing this thing early this
morning!"
"You haven''t said what it is yet!"
"I can''t believe you two! You haven''t even heard of such big news!" Felicia looked at them with slight
disdain and began, "Last night, the three big ns in Ozin were attacked by a group of mysterious
men, a lot of people died! And, earlier this morning, the heads of the three families went to the Back
Hill Cemetery with their direct rtives. It''s said the three heads and their brothersmitted
suicide there, and the others have been kneeling on the ground! In other words, the age of these
three ns end in Ozin."
"Really? Such a big thing happened?" Billy pretended to be shocked. "Do you know who did it?"
"Not quite sure, but I heard it was an organization named SHADOW."
At this point, she seemed to remember something and asked with a gossipy expression, "By the
way, Billy, didn''t you say you know a lot of people? You should go find out what SHADOW is and
why they targeted these three families!"
"SHADOW?" Billy scratched his head. "I''ve heard of them. They''re like a police agency that
specializes in solving cases that the police can''t handle. If what you''ve heard is true, these three
families must have some major problems for SHADOW''s people to target them."
"Is that so?" Felicia murmured with a thoughtful look.
Harleen looked at Billy as if she was going to say something to him but she held back her words in
the end.
"Oh right!" Felicia suddenly shouted after looking at her sister.
"Felicia! What''s wrong with you? You scared Tasha! Be quite, will you!" Sharon scolded irritably as
she yed toys with Tasha.
"Dad, Mom, Harleen! Good news!" Felicia eximed excitedly.
"The Ma family is gone! We don''t have to go back to Cloud City anymore. Dad and Harleen can
find jobs in Ozin even if they don''t join Knight Group!" added she.
Upon hearing this, the toy in Sharon''s hand fell to the ground as she eximed, "Oh my gosh! Why
didn''t I think of that? This is amazing!"
Fletcher seemed to have caught on and a long-lost ease appeared on his face. It was as if a huge
boulder weighing down on him had been lifted.
"Grandma, we don''t have to go to Cloud City anymore, right?" Tasha also seemed to understand
what was going on.
"No more trips there! Never again!" Sharon cried tears of joy with misty eyes.
"Yoo-hoo! I love Ozin, I hate Cloud City..." Tasha danced around excitedly.
The entire family rejoiced except for Harleen, whose mind was preupied with something else.
"Billy, can youe here for a second? I need to ask you something." She called out.
"Sure thing!" Billy followed Harleen into the room.
"Five years ago, did it involve the three families, things that happened to the Miles family?" Harleen
asked after they sat down in the room together.

"And also, what''s your rtionship with SHADOW? Or were you always one of them?"
"Huh... what do you mean?" Billy looked confused for a moment.
"Don''t y dumb with me!" Harleen fixed her gaze onto him.
"I was kidnapped two days ago and forced to reveal who I saved of the Miles family back then. And
they were attackedst night! And, the way you spoke so decisively to me the day before yesterday,
you told me not to worry about being suppressed by the Ma family in the future, you must have
known that something was going to happen with them, right?"
"Also, I found out that this morning at Back Hill Cemetery, they were keeling before the gravestone
of the head of the Miles family. One of them could be a coincidence, but all of these things
together...? You''re not gonna to tell me it''s just a coincidence, are you?"
"Okay fine, I''ll confess!" Billy knew she would be suspicious.
"Five years ago, what happened with the Miles family was orchestrated by members of all three
families. And when Eddie kidnapped you two days ago, that was also on orders from one of them."
"I do know someone from SHADOW who is in charge of the Eastern District. They did came for the
three families, but there were other reasons as well apart from me."
"The three families had many problems and SHADOW had been keeping an eye on them for some
time. They just did me a favor while they were at it."
"Is this true?" Harleen tried to read something from Billy''s expression.
"Yes!" Billy replied earnestly.
"Okay, I believe you for now." Harleen looked back at Billy and asked, "What exactly is SHADOW
anyway?"
"It''splicated. Basically they are an organization dedicated to fighting crime and punishing evil-
doers. They have connections with many departments so they have some social influence too. I
actually asked them for help with contracts regarding Obodon and Ozin Towers before."
"I see." Harleen nodded her head and said, "Le''s treat your friend to dinner sometime soon then, we
should show our appreciation properly."
Billy hesitated briefly before responding, "Sure! I''ll give him a call tomorrow and ask when he''s free."
"Uh-huh." Harleen nodded again.
"Billy, thank you!" she added.
"What for this time?"
"Since you showed up in Cloud City until now, you''ve given our family too many surprises." Harleen
looked up at him. "Not just Tasha, my parents and Felicia, their moods have all noticeably improved.
I feel like these past few days have been the happiest they''ve had in five years."
"Don''t be polite with me. This is what I owe them." Billy smiled and continued, "Believe me, they''ll
only get happier from here on out!"
"Mm-hmm, I believe you!" Harleen looked deeply into Billy''s eyes.
...
Two groups of people were engaged in a fierce battle three kilometers away from Back Hill
Cemetery on an open grasnd area that afternoon.
One side consisted of ten SHADOW members wielding crescent-shaped des, while the other
side was made up of 20 heavily armed men and women standing beside a middle-aged man
radiating powerful energy.
Judging by their current strengths, both sides seemed evenly matched despite the fact that all ten
SHADOW members had sustained injuries earlier. However, their fighting spirit far exceeded that of
their opponents.
