After the car had gone far, Philip put a hood over the boss’ head and walked to Jack and Jess’ house.
“Philip, you’re back!”
Jack opened the door for Philip before he turned and called out to Jess, “Jess, I told you Philip will be able to help
us!”
The siblings led Philip into the house, only to find a man with a cloth bag over his head following behind him.
“Philip… Who’s this?” Jess asked.
“Don’t worry about it. Is there someone more influential in this area?” Philip asked.
“Yes, of course!” Jack replied quickly.
Seeing that Jack was about to blurt out the man’s name, Philip put his hand over his mouth.
“Shush…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe glanced at the person wriggling to and fro beside him.
Jack understood instantly, and Philip said, “Take me to him.”
On the way, Philip took off the boss’ communicator. To prevent the GPS function, Philip turned it off and put it into
his space ring.
Jack took Philip to an old house at the end of the village that looked fortified with defense equipment.
He then pressed the doorbell. After a camera in front of the door looked back and forth a few times, the door slowly
opened. A tall, bearded man stood by the door.
“Oh? Why are you free today?” A very hoarse voice came out of his mouth.
Jack made a shushing gesture at him. The man looked at Philip and the other man who was tied up next to him. He
frowned slightly and invited them into the house.
After asking the man for a vacant room, Philip shut the boss inside.
He then explained, “Jack asked me to handle the forced demolition problem. This is the boss of that company. I’ve
put forward a few conditions, and I’ll let him go after the conditions are met.”
“You’re too reckless.” The man took a sip of wine.
“I don’t have a choice. I’m in a hurry.”
Philip was not sure if this person was reliable, but he could only trust Jack for the time being.
He then added, “I have other things to take care of, so I may have to keep this person here for a while. I wonder if
you can help.”
The man glanced at Philip and said, “I can help, but it’s too risky. If it gets exposed, we won’t be able to stay here
any longer.”
Philip understood that this person wanted a reward.
Seeing that this man’s house was full of armor maintenance equipment and some armor parts, he was probably a

other party help him willingly.
Philip put his hand on the table, and there was an egg-sized mysterious metal with a faint blue light. The man’s eyes
promptly focused on it.
The man stood up and said, “Wait a minute…”
He went to fetch his tools and machines.
Philip did not know the name of this metal, but it should be a special alloy with strong thermal conductivity and
malleability.
After a while, the man sat down with a bunch of tools in his hands. He wore a miniature microscope on his head.
After careful observation, this person’s tone changed a little.
“How can I help you?” The man put his tools down and asked Philip seriously.
“As long as he doesn’t die here, you can let him go when the compensation for their house is paid. I’ve already
turned off his communicator.”
Philip put his communicator on the table.
“Okay, I’ll just take care of his meals,” the man replied.
