Chapter 24: Reidon’s mother
Chapter 24 Reidon’s Mother
Reidon went back to his room and wanted to sleep again.
But when he lied on the bed, he was still thinking about what just happened.
He got angry after he thought Nyx kicked him without explanation. Then he was no longer sleepy.
He scratched his head, got up from the bed, and walked into the bathroom.
After a simple wash, he transferred some cash to his mother.
Reidon grew up in a single-parent family and was raised by his mother.
In his hometown, his mother worked hard every day in the factory.
But no matter how hard his mother worked and how tired she was, she never treated him shabbily, but always gave him the best.
Thinking of this, he was determined to buy a house in the city.
He put the pile of scrap paper on his desk.
He spent a few hundred dollars on the scrap paper.
He had to throw out several bags of paper almost every two days.
He had to write so many formulas to get the research points.
He kept using paper to calculate, and left a lot of used scrap paper.
Reidon felt there was nothing wrong with the research system, but it just wasted paper.
After packing up all the garbage, he carried the garbage bag out again to take the elevator.
Just as Reidon walked out of the door, the other three people walked out of the room at the same time and looked at each other.
In this apartment, many surveillance cameras monitored Reidon everywhere, even in the three people’s rooms.
They saw Reidon packed up the trash and they immediately followed him out of the door.
Even Nyx, who had been very angry before, had a serious expression on her face. She was no longer as easy-going as before.
This was the basic quality of a spy to wear disguise and keep emotions.
Nyx took out her phone.
“Mars has already left.”
Even if the superiors could see what Reidon was doing through the surveillance cameras, as people who disguised beside the target, the three people still needed to report the target’s every move to her superior so that they could confirm his whereabouts together to prevent mistakes from happening and affecting their judgment.
Nyx and the rest could not always follow Reidon. This would also arouse his suspicion.
So at night, or when Reidon was at home, the three people shouldered the responsibility of protecting Reidon.
However, Reidon had no idea.
He threw the trash in the bin downstairs.
Then he walked out of the neighborhood and got on a bus to the bank.
In less than twenty minutes, Reidon came to the bank.
He deposited 6,000 dollars into his mother’s bank card. He walked out of the bank and called his mother.
The call was answered after a long while.
His mother didn’t like to keep her phone with her. She was afraid of radiation.
And as she got older, her hearing got worse.
But Reidon was very patient. He dialed the number many times.
He sat in a chair outside the bank and said to his mother, “I put six thousand dollars in your bank card. Remember to take it out when you want to use it.”
His mother’s voice came quickly.
“I have enough money here. You don’t have to give me money. Finding a girlfriend is the most important thing right now.”
His mother hoped that Reidon could have a girlfriend. She know about Reidon.
She longed for Reidon to have a new girlfriend and forget about Doreen.
Reidon sighed. His dream of buying a house had not come true yet. How could he find a girlfriend?
Women nowadays were very realistic.
He thought so, but he could not say that to his mother.
So he comforted his mother, “Mom, don’t worry. I will definitely find a girlfriend this year.”
After that, they chatted for more than half an hour and his mother asked him many questions.
Reidon answered all of them well. He told his mother that he was great.
After reassuring his mother, Reidon hung up the phone.
He stood up and let out a long sigh.
Just as he was about to put his phone in the pocket, the phone rang again.
Reidon picked up the phone and saw that it was an unfamiliar number.
“Hello?”
Reidon answered very politely because he thought it might be called by a customer.
“It’s me, Mouse. You left without saying a word during the reunion yesterday. I was going to chat with you, but you left. I just found your phone number and decided to call you.”
“I’m really sorry about yesterday.” Reidon said embarrassedly. He had made a farce in the reunion. The atmosphere after he left must have been very awkward.
“It’s okay, I can understand your feelings. Wait for me, I’ll come to you right away. I’ll take you to a place. You should let go of the past.”
“You came to find me?”
“Yeah, it’s time for you to meet more women. Otherwise, when will you be able to move on?”
“No need.”
“Hey, don’t be shy. I’m already in the car. Remember to send me a message on your location.”
Just as Reidon was about to say something, Mouse had already hung up.
He was still the same, doing everything in a hurry, not allowing the other people to refuse.
Reidon sighed. He could not bring himself to refuse a friend that had not seen for many years.
He could not turn down his simple request.
He sent his current location to Mouse.
Mouse quickly sent a message, “I’m nearby. Wait for me. I will be there in twenty minutes.”
Reidon could do nothing, but continue to sit and wait for Mouse.
Looking at the street where the couples were walking with holding hands, he felt extremely uncomfortable.
Looking at the crowd, Reidon suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Because he saw four or five men staring at him intentionally.
Besides those men, there was a black van.
The people in the van were also observing him from time to time.
Reidon was worried, but he didn’t think that he had provoked anyone recently.
Who were these people?
Were they the accomplices of the thief who was caught?
How could he be released so quickly?
Reidon felt more and more shocked after he thought a lot.
At this moment, a Honda car stopped in front of him.
The window was opened, and the person in the driver’s seat was Mouse.
“Get on!”
