Chapter 9 Return

Chapter 9 Return
After escaping from the institute, Laura and Gabriela left Mexico City as quickly as possible and drove towards the US-Mexico border.

The research institute will never let them off like this, and their journey will not be peaceful.

Gabriela knew this very well, so she was always in a state of worry and fear.

But looking at Laura sitting in the car, excitedly looking at the scenery along the way, she never regretted making such a choice.

At this moment, Laura, who was originally excited, seemed to have thought of something. She sat quietly in her seat and curled up into a ball.

"What's wrong, Laura?"

Gabriela looked at Laura with pity.

"We got separated from the others, the others ..."

A look of worry flashed across Laura's face.

Gabriela touched Laura's head and comforted her: "Don't worry, they will be fine. Didn't we agree on a meeting place?"

They were going to cross the border and then go across the United States to North Dakota.

Laura nodded, frowning her brows and biting her grapefruit.

"But Sean doesn't know where to meet."

Gabriela gripped the steering wheel tightly and forced a smile.

"Sean...he's strong, he'll be fine."

She couldn't imagine what these children would have faced if it weren't for Sean.

She sincerely hoped that Sean could survive and go to the "Garden of Eden" with them.

Laura looked up suddenly, her eyes lit up slightly, and she smiled.

"You're right, Sean is very powerful, he will find us!"

Seeing that happy smile, Gabriela felt much better. She told Laura to take a rest for a while and then concentrated on driving.

……

呲!
The sharp adamantium knife slashed across the enemy's neck, leaving a string of blood.

Sean shook off the blood beads on the knife, and the indestructible alloy knife immediately became as shiny as new.

He was becoming more and more satisfied with this weapon.

After wrapping the knife with the black cloth thrown aside, Sean frowned and turned over the corpse at his feet.

"Not the police, not the research institute, but a gang member?"

He muttered, noticing the corpse's arms were covered with needle holes, and searched the body, only to find some money and a reward warrant for him.

“The photo is really ugly.”

"Gangs, police, research institutes..."

Sean stood up, smiled slightly, and exclaimed: "I am really popular."

After the morning's battle, Sean continued to wander around Mexico City, but fewer and fewer people came to bother him.

After he defeated several waves of enemies, the people from the research institute and the police completely disappeared.

On the contrary, there are more and more gangsters.

“I don’t know what benefits the institute promised these gangs.”

Sean said lightly, but a sneer appeared on his face, and he even felt a little...expecting?
He didn't care who the enemy was. After all, it was the same after death, and the power of the soul would not be reduced.

But after the institute temporarily gave up on arresting him, what would it use its resources for?
"Give those little guys some more time to attract the attention of the research institute."

Sean whispered, listening to his stomach rumbling, and decided to go to the old place to have a meal and show up to see if he could attract more enemies.

As for going too far, there were too many enemies and they were surrounded and then captured...

"Absolutely impossible!"

Sean was sure of that.

There are many abilities in his memory, many of which are suitable for escape.

If the situation really came to a point where he had to leave, he would remove the abilities loaded onto his soul body, replace them with abilities suitable for escape, and then leave Mexico City.

It's simply not too convenient.

It is worth mentioning that after the battle in the research institute and today's battle, Sean gained a lot of soul power.

According to the ratio of the ten parts of soul power previously divided, he probably got two parts.

In other words, he now has thirteen soul powers.

The soul power grew very quickly, but what surprised Sean was that he actually possessed ten soul powers before today!
Was it because of the remaining soul power of his previous incarnation, or was it because his soul power merged after he crossed over? Or was it because his abilities mutated, which enhanced his soul power?

Sean didn't know the reason, but he didn't want to find out more.

"If I stay for another day, my soul power should be able to increase a little more." This is another reason why he chose to stay for another day.

Sean identified the direction and left quickly with the knife in hand.

……

Maya Restaurant.

As closing time approached, the restaurant owner saw off the last customer, then sat at the door and sighed as he looked at the wanted poster in his hand.

"What's going on!"

He was lucky because he saw the wanted criminal.

He was unlucky again because the wanted criminal was right under his nose.

"If God gives me another chance, I will never let him go!"

As he finished speaking, a somewhat familiar voice sounded in his ears.

"Do you want to say three more words to him?"

The boss looked up suddenly and looked at the smiling face, his face instantly turned as pale as paper.

No, you are a murderer, why are you bringing him back?
Without time to hesitate, the boss raised his hands.

"Spare my life!"

He explained with a sad face: "I was just sighing, I won't really call the police."

Sean smiled and comforted, "I know."

The boss breathed a sigh of relief.

Sean walked into the restaurant and added over his shoulder.

"Even if you call the police, I can still do it..."

Sean stopped talking and looked at the other person with an unfriendly look.

The boss shuddered and shook his head quickly.

Sean smiled and said, "I'm hungry, is there anything to eat?"

"Yes! There must be!"

The boss smiled ingratiatingly and walked quickly into the kitchen.

After a while, the restaurant owner brought the food and sat down in the corner with his wife obediently.

Sean glanced at the two of them, chuckled in his heart, lowered his head and began to eat, quickly but calmly.

Looking at the silent Sean, the boss and his wife looked at each other, but as time passed, their fear of Sean dissipated a lot.

Ding dong!

Sean put down his knife and fork, and the crisp collision sound made the boss and his wife tremble.

"You didn't serve me leftovers this time?"

Sean asked with a faint smile.

"No no!"

The two of them shook their heads in unison, and seeing that Sean was still staring at them, they emphasized with a sad face.

"Really not!"

Sean knocked on the table and suddenly shouted.

"Francis?"

The boss suddenly raised his head and asked in surprise: "How do you know my name?"

He shouldn't have mentioned his name.

Sean smiled.

Sure enough it was him.

Katrin, the nurse who takes care of Sean at the institute, often mentions her twin brother and tells him jokes about their embarrassing childhood experiences.

The two look very similar, they are indeed twins.

"Is Katrin okay?"

Sean asked with a smile.

Not to mention that his predecessor had been taken care of by Catherine for more than ten years, just the meticulous care he received from Catherine during the one month he traveled through time made him quite grateful.
