119 - Negotiations A Deal for Protection

  Jason naturally didn't know about the sibling relationship between Sandy, River, and Thomas.

  The aggressive rise of a dozen people made him frown.

  He wasn't afraid of them. However, the no-fighting rule meant they might resort to disgusting tactics like spitting.

  As for his Shadow Doppelganger, it could only take down two or three people in this situation. It was his only combat ability, and he was trying to keep it hidden, not use it to show off.

  Sandy, sitting in the corner, looked at Jason, feeling like he seemed familiar, like she'd seen him somewhere before.

  Sandy then looked at the RV parked outside the bus window and suddenly remembered something.

  Wasn't he the RV owner who offed those two black guys not long ago?

  Sandy's face changed, and she quickly tugged at her older brothers' sleeves.

  "Guys, don't be impulsive…"

  Sandy's face was pale. She didn't know Jason's full capabilities, but she knew that angering a strong person like Jason wouldn't end well for the three siblings. So, she quickly got up and whispered in River's ear, "Bro, he's the RV owner who offed those two black guys."

  Not long ago, the siblings had discussed what the Shadow Doppelganger ability was. River naturally knew what his sister was talking about.

  River, who didn't understand why his sister was stopping him, immediately changed his expression, and his gaze towards Jason became serious.

  Thomas, on the other hand, looked stupidly at his third sister, not understanding why Sandy was holding him back. "What's wrong, sis? Do you have a crush on this kid? But he is kinda handsome, a good match for you."

  River and Sandy couldn't help but roll their eyes.

  Sandy's face flushed with anger, and she pinched her second brother hard on the soft flesh of his waist, signaling him to shut up. If he kept talking, she'd be getting married right then and there.

  "Ouch!" Thomas felt the pain in his waist and was even more confused.

  Did his third sister like this kid or not?

  His older brother and third sister never said things directly, always playing charades with him. Thomas's not-so-bright brain was very troubled.

  At this moment, Sandy wasn't the only one on the bus who recognized Jason. Others gradually recognized him as well.

  Someone whispered, revealing Jason's identity.

  "What, he's the RV owner who killed those black guys!" Someone exclaimed on the bus.

  Many people looked at the RV parked outside the window, confirming it instantly.

  Some fearfully moved closer to the bus door, ready to run away at any moment, while others wanted to build a relationship with Jason, watching his every move, trying to figure out what he was up to.

  You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.

  At this time, Jason didn't care about the people around him, but instead, was thinking about how to get Sandy onto the RV.

  He also noticed that Sandy's relationship with the two strong men was not ordinary. Through their conversation, Jason understood that they were siblings.

  "Brother, is there anything you need?" River asked.

  However, from River's tone, one could tell that he didn't want to provoke Jason, which was why he was asking so politely.

  Jason pointed at Sandy and said, "I want to take her onto my RV."

  Hearing Jason say this, River's heart sank, Sandy's face turned pale, and Thomas became furious.

  "Kid, you want to steal my sister?" Thomas glared at Jason and questioned him.

  The three siblings weren't stupid. When Jason stared at Sandy earlier, they had already guessed that Jason wanted to do something like forcibly taking a woman.

  Previously, other RV owners had taken a liking to Sandy, but River and Thomas, fiercely protective of their sister, had driven them away. They certainly wouldn't let Jason take her now.

  Sandy's face was pale. She knew how powerful Jason was. If Jason killed her older brothers and then took her to the RV to live a hellish life, only to be discarded when he got bored... she didn't even dare to think about that ending.

  River and Thomas took out wooden axes and wooden sticks, ready to fight to the death.

  However, the dozen or so people who usually followed the siblings' lead hesitated and became fearful.

  Among these people, there were even a few young men who were pursuing Sandy. They all lowered their heads and remained silent, not daring to support River and Thomas.

  Jason had the ability to kill people.

  And as long as they retaliated, they would be punished with electric shocks. How could they fight in this situation?

  Most people didn't want to risk their lives to protect Sandy.

  Jason looked at the angry River and Thomas, and then at the pale-faced Sandy, and knew that he had to show sincerity to take Sandy away.

  So, Jason said in a deep voice, "Brothers, how long can you protect your sister?"

  "In the future, there will be no shortage of RV owners recruiting people on the bus. If a powerful RV owner takes a liking to her, can you protect her forever?"

  River and Thomas's expressions changed upon hearing this. Jason had raised the problem they had been worried about all along.

  In the future, the RV owners' strength would only grow stronger, and there would definitely be a day when they couldn't protect their sister on the bus.

  No! They couldn't even protect her now, in front of Jason.

  At this time, Jason continued to say, "Rest assured to leave her to me, and I guarantee that I won't bully or mistreat her in the future."

  "As long as she is willing to come with me and become my woman on the RV, I can provide both of you with enough equipment and resources."

  "No way." River shook his head firmly. He didn't trust leaving his sister to an RV owner.

  In River's view, RV owners would be hunted by the pursuer, and also have to use his sister to compete for chests. Going with any RV owner was unsafe. Staying on the bus was the safest option.

  At this time, Sandy, who had been silent all along, asked, "How can you guarantee that you won't mistreat me in the future, and what equipment and resources can you provide to my brothers?"

  In fact, Sandy already had the idea of going with Jason.

  She also knew that Jason was right. If she continued to stay on the bus, she would end up implicating her older brothers and be taken away by other RV owners sooner or later.

  She might not even need to be taken away. Some RV owners in the future would just want to play with women. At that time, as long as they killed River and Thomas, wouldn't they be able to play with her as they pleased?

  In order not to cause trouble for her older brothers in the future, and even in order not to anger Jason, Sandy had already made plans to go with Jason.

  And seeing that Jason hadn't made a move, Sandy wondered if she could negotiate some conditions to secure some benefits for her brothers.

  Jason could roughly guess what Sandy was thinking, so he pointed at the RV outside the window, "Take a look inside the RV, and you'll see I won't mistreat you."

  "As for providing your brothers with equipment and resources, how about I give you two pairs of 1-Star Combat Boots, two crossbows, plus some food?"

  Jason stated his conditions.

  Next, as long as Sandy went to the RV and saw Chloe and the other girls, and saw that they were living well on the RV, she would basically understand that Jason wouldn't mistreat her in the future.

  Of course, if Sandy didn't plan to go with him after touring the RV, then Jason would unceremoniously use his Shadow Doppelganger to forcibly take Sandy away.
