Chapter 512: Men In This World Ultimately Are All About the Face

Chapter 512 Men In This World Ultimately Are All About the Face

Five minutes later, a confused Vanessa got out of the car. She watched Luke wave at her and drive off, and for some reason felt like laughing.

Why did he play a card game with her before leaving?

He even claimed that the game could change her life? That would be more convincing if he had used tarot cards!

He also said that he could tell what her luck was going to be like based on the number of times she won or loss. That was even more unbelievable.

Yet when she was faced with all this utter nonsense, she actually listened to him with keen interest, as if she was bewitched. She must be crazy.

But maybe this game really did help, as Vanessa’s mood was a lot better as she walked into an alley, whistling a tune. Luke, who had just lost two consecutive rounds, watched Vanessa leave before he shook his head with a smile. “Your luck only went back to normal after you ran into me.”

He looked at Vanessa’s abilities that were now dim in the list, but didn’t feel any regret.

Vanessa’s abilities had been there long enough for him to learn them.

Right now, Elementary Driving was on the list of his own abilities and wasn’t tagged, which meant that the ability belonged to him.

The whole point of Super Learning Mode was to learn, after all, not to simply copy abilities.

He had also let Vanessa go for a simple reason.

First of all, the system didn’t deem her as someone who had to be killed. Secondly, she had provided Luke with an elementary ability. Lastly, and most importantly, she had a pretty face.

Any ordinary man would be partial to a pretty face.

Luke also had Elementary Driving which he acquired from Bell, the cab queen in New York, and he watched Vanessa take a circuitous route in the drone image before she entered an abandoned factory.

After days of investigation, he learned that Hernan Reyes was very powerful and his influence stretched into all aspects of Rio.

On the surface, Hernan was a big businessman who did a lot of charity work. He built drinking water systems for the slums, donated money to schools, and established many hospitals.

But in private, this big boss was involved in all the underground businesses. He wasn’t interested in anything else.

If Luke could take him down, Daddy System would have to give him a thousand experience and credit points, right? Mulling over this thought, Luke drew a cross next to Hernan’s name.

But what were Vanessa and her team up to? It couldn’t be money; led by the baldie and the handsome young man, the rest of the team had watched millions in cash burn to ash in front of their eyes the night before.

That was right, Vanessa was one of the robbers in black masks who had attacked Hernan’s storehouse last night.

Maybe it was because she was too distinctive, so she never took off her mask. She had even been wearing men’s clothes.

Maybe a personal grudge was the only thing that couldn’t be resolved with money. Then, did they all have history with Hernan?

Driving the car into an alley, Luke quickly approached the factory. The factory was old and spacious, and had been specially cleaned up.

There was a couch and a bed in one corner, and cars and car parts in another corner, which was where the cars were modified.

There was a stove in yet another corner, where two black people were making food.

With just one whiff of the food, Luke’s evaluation of their culinary skills was — hell.

Vanessa was talking to several people on the couch. This bunch was made up of different genders and races. The brawny baldie and the handsome young man who had burnt Hernan’s stash were also here.

With his Sharp Nose, Luke determined that everybody here had been involved in the cash-burning operation the previous night.

After eavesdropping for a moment, he realized that this bunch was actually gunning for all of Hernan’s cash.

They had burnt the millions in cash because they wanted Hernan to gather the rest of his money together in one spot so that they could take it in one swoop. After all, carrying out one robbery was much easier than carrying out ten. With the baldie’s provocation, if Hernan didn’t gather his money together, what if several million more burned again? If they did it once, they could do it again.

Hernan had lots of men, but he couldn’t watch all his hoards; the chances were high that the baldie would attack them one by one.

So, it was a ploy!

Furthermore, it seemed that the brawny baldie and the handsome young man really did have a personal grudge against Hernan, which made their actions all the more misleading.

They were betting that Hernan wouldn’t sit around and do nothing.

Their plan in fact had gotten off to a great start.

Of the locations that Luke had checked in the last two days, two had sent out huge amounts of cash.

He hadn’t made a move because it wasn’t necessary.

As long as he caught Hernan, wouldn’t this bigshot confess everything?

But as he listened to this bunch talk about robbing a place, Luke clicked his tongue. How bold, you even dare rob a police station?

After secretly taking photos of these people, Luke withdrew.

It wasn’t bad that these people were going after Hernan. Hernan was more likely to make a mistake while he was busy protecting his money.

Taking advantage of the chaos was the ultimate strategy. Luke returned to the beach in the afternoon. Sitting in front of a stall with his laptop, he mulled over this operation plan.

Vanessa and her team were going to act in a day or two. It would be best for him to take advantage of this timing.

The best would be if he could capture Hernan alive. He was very interested in the intelligence that this bigshot might have.

Suddenly, he saw two long legs out of the corner of his eye.

He turned his head and saw Vanessa and an Asian guy walk by in the distance, then stop in the shade to chat leisurely with each other.

Luke was amused. What were they up to this time?

It didn’t take long for him to understand.

Hernan Reyes had appeared in a coffeehouse in a nearby hotel.

Luke activated the sound collector on his fake phone and listened to Vanessa and her partner’s conversation.

“There’s nothing we can do. That guy has six bodyguards with him, and the glass around him is probably bulletproof,” the Asian guy said softly as he munched on some chips.

“Eight! There’s only one man each at the table on his left and behind him. Do you think they look like people who are there for coffee?” Vanessa said in a low voice as she glanced at Hernan.

“How long have you been inactive since the last time?” asked the Asian guy.

Vanessa’s face turned dark. “Can’t I take a break?”

The Asian guy looked at her face. “Your bad luck isn’t gone yet?”

Vanessa turned her head away and refused to answer the depressing question.

The Asian guy shrugged and dropped the chit chat. He turned in Hernan’s direction. “How can we get his palm print? Dominic must be kidding. We’ll be stopped by his bodyguards as soon as we approach him.”

Vanessa snorted. “That’s why certain things can only be done by women.”
