American Horror Story, Starting from Falls Town

Chapter 118 Wooden House
"Is this a cabin?"

Roy noticed that the symbol on the mercenary looked like a log cabin.

Is this an organization?
Just as he was wondering, Roy heard footsteps again.

These are definitely not FEA people, they are not that fast, and they are most likely reinforcements for this group of mercenaries.

So Roy used the same trick again, lying on the ground pretending to be asleep, but actually he was squinting his eyes to observe the situation.

However, the person who came was very cautious and threw out a round object to explore the way.

Roy didn't dare to bet that this thing was a flash bomb, so he quickly covered himself with the bodies of the two mercenaries next to him.

This judgment was correct. The round object was indeed a fragmentation grenade, and the bodies of the two mercenaries covering it were blown to pieces on the spot.

Then, a familiar figure walked in with a gun in his hand.

It's Sully!
There is indeed something wrong with this guy!

Roy suddenly turned over the corpse and rushed towards Sully, scaring the other party, but this guy seemed to have received professional training and pulled the trigger at Roy in time.

If it was just a gun, Roy would not be afraid. As long as he didn't hit a vulnerable spot like the eyes, there would basically be no problem.

However, Roy didn't expect that what Sully had in his hand was not an ordinary pistol, but a stun gun.

Noisy!
Caught off guard, Roy was hit by the stun gun and enjoyed the feeling of electric therapy.

But Roy's 45 physique allowed him to withstand the high voltage current that could knock an adult unconscious, and he continued to rush towards Sully.

Sully's face showed fear, but it was too late for him to dodge and he was hit hard in the stomach by a hook punch.

For a moment, Sully felt as if his internal organs had been displaced by the blow. He could no longer control the movements of his stomach and was about to vomit as soon as he opened his mouth.

Roy, who had more and more combat experience, knew the consequences of his punch. He dodged in time, grabbed Sully's hair, and slammed his head against the corridor wall.

boom!
Sully, who was halfway through vomiting, was forced to swallow the vomit back by this collision. Anyone who has experienced vomiting knows this feeling, it is particularly sour and refreshing.

Sully was tortured to death, and then Roy grabbed his neck and lifted him up.

"Who the hell are you!"

Sully's face was almost turning purple, but he refused to say a word.

Roy realized that this guy had probably received anti-torture training, and torture might not be effective.

So, Roy activated the ability of Shadow of Fear.

"Look into my eyes, bastard!"

Roy's pupils turned golden, and Sully was instantly caught in a terrifying illusion.

"I can't say!"

Sully's will was quite strong, and Roy released the Shadow of Fear for several minutes without making him surrender.

So Roy increased the output of Shadow of Fear, and then saw Sully start to bleed from his nose and foam at the mouth.

"Tell me, who do you work for?"

"Wooden house..."

Roy was a little surprised. He thought the wooden house logo on the mercenaries was just some kind of mark. He didn't expect that this organization was really called Wooden House.

"What's a cabin?"

"A secret organization that specializes in... studying supernatural beings..."

There is actually such an organization?
"Where is the cabin?"

"In the……"

Just when Sully was about to give the answer, his will could no longer hold on and he fell into a coma under the pressure of fear.

"Fuck! He fainted at the critical moment!"

Roy was speechless, but at this time, footsteps were heard again.

"FEAR First Response Assault Reconnaissance Team! Drop your weapons immediately!"

This time it was really FEAR. Roy was about to raise his hands when he heard a familiar voice.

"Wait, put down your weapons, I know this boy."

Saltana is here too?
Saltana, dressed in casual clothes, walked past the FEAR team and came to Roy's side.

"Roy, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, but others might be."

Looking at the corpses lying all over the place and the unconscious people, it was obvious that they had experienced a battle.

Saltana said something to a middle-aged black man in a suit next to her.

"Gerald, I want to talk to Roy."

Isn't this Gerald Olin, the manager of the Dolphin Hotel?

It turns out this guy is also from FEA!

So the Dolphin Hotel is also an FEA property?

Come to think of it, it seems reasonable. Room 1408 of the Dolphin Hotel is a famous haunted room. More than one person died in it. It is impossible for FEA to ignore this room.

So the FEA simply took over the Dolphin Hotel and put room 1408 under guard?
"It's up to you. Just have him go to the bureau with me later."

"I know the rules of the bureau. Roy, come with me!"

"I have two friends in there. Can I ask them to come out?"

Saltana glanced at Roy.

"Male and female?"

Roy chuckled and didn't answer.

No answer is the best answer. The smart Saltana instantly understood what Roy meant and couldn't help rolling her eyes at him.

"You're awesome! I'll wait for you outside."

With that, Saltana walked out of the cinema gracefully.

After Roy called Heather and Penny out, he immediately went outside the cinema to find Saltana.

"Sister Saltana, have you been reinstated?"

"Not yet. I just happened to be relaxing in Los Angeles recently, and you happened to be here too."

Hearing this, Roy's expression became a little strange. He remembered that he seemed to have mentioned this to Saltana before coming to Los Angeles.

"You, aren't you waiting for me in Los Angeles specifically?"

This made Saltana blush a little, and she couldn't help but pat Roy's arm.

"It's just a coincidence, don't think too much about it!"

I didn't expect this older sister to be so shy.

"Okay, okay, it's a coincidence!"

Saltana quickly collected herself and looked into Roy's eyes.

"Roy, have you made any new discoveries?"

Saltana knew most of Roy's secrets, including his identity as the son of the devil, so Roy had nothing to hide.

"I just tortured a man named Sully, who claimed to be from an organization called the Log Cabin."

"Wooden house?!"

Judging from Saltana's expression, she seemed to know about this organization.

"Sister Saltana, do you know this organization?"

Saltana nodded.

"This is a non-profit organization that studies the supernatural. It has close ties with the government and has always been quite radical in its approach."

Well, it's a non-profit organization.

As we all know, American non-profit organizations are the most powerful, such as the NCAA, animal protection organizations, and the Federal Reserve.

What made Roy doubt for a moment was that non-profit organization is an abbreviation for very profitable organization.

"Is it troublesome?" "Very troublesome. They might even have people inside FEA! But don't worry, I will help you cover up this incident. Gerald and I have a good relationship."

Roy felt as if he was inexplicably caught in the whirlpool again.

"Sister Saltana, thank you!"

I hugged Saltana and she smiled sweetly.

As Saltana said, Gerald did not make things difficult for Roy and the other two. After recording what happened in the cinema, he let them return to the hotel.

Anyway, the Dolphin Hotel is under the control of FEA, so Roy can't run away.

But Britt and his companions were a bit unlucky. They were first hit by a tranquilizer gun and then hit by a fragmentation grenade. Several of them were injured and fell into a coma.

On the contrary, the violent middle-aged man who fell at the door was just anesthetized and nothing else happened.

It was already early morning when they returned to the Dolphin Hotel. Roy, Heather and Penny no longer had any interest in doing exercises before bed, so they washed up and went to bed.

The next day, Roy was woken up.

When I opened my eyes, I didn't see Heather and Penny, but the quilt was bulging, as if someone was hiding inside.

"Um, sorry, I'm not very good at it yet. Penny is teaching me."

Penny does have more experience in this area, and she often guides Heather.

"It's okay, just learn slowly."

Roy patted Heather on the head to show encouragement.

Who doesn’t love such a studious student?
"Oh, that's it!"

After some conversation, Roy was fully awake. He threw off the quilt and wanted to do some morning exercise.

But at this moment, the phone suddenly rang.

Roy frowned and picked up the phone, holding Heather down.

"Don't stop. Learning is endless. Don't give up halfway!"

I don’t know if Heather understood the meaning of the phrase “learning has no end”, but she certainly didn’t stop making progress.

Roy glanced at the screen of his mobile phone and saw the phone number displayed was Alan Berg's.

"Hey, Mr. Berg, what's up?"

"Nothing much, it's just that the Santa Monica Cup qualifiers I told you about yesterday are starting today. Do you want to get ready?"

"Hiss! Prepare? Do I still need to prepare for the qualifiers?"

"Mr. Black, this is what's going on. There's no break between qualifying matches. You can play all three matches in one day, or you can play one match a day for three days. I'd like to know your plan."

Roy forced himself to concentrate on what Alan was saying.

"Huh! So that's what you mean. Of course I'm planning on playing three games in one day!"

"Then you need to prepare in advance. The Santa Monica Cup games are usually held in the evening. How about coming to UCLA this afternoon?"

"Um—I, I need to look at today's schedule to find out!"

Roy's voice became dull, as if he was suppressing something, which made Alan feel a little strange.

"Mr. Black, are you feeling unwell?"

"No! I'm in good health! Anyway, I'll come to UCLA to see you by evening at the latest!"

"Okay, then it's settled!"

Alan hung up the phone and Roy quickly threw the phone to the other side.

"Heather, Penny, you actually did something bad while I was on the phone. I'm going to punish you!"

"what!"

It turned out that the two girls had just suddenly used the tactic of attacking from the front and back, which almost caused Roy to be defeated.

Fortunately, Roy finally withstood the offensive, which gave him the opportunity to counterattack now.

After a morning exercise, it was already noon. Hungry Roy and his friends came to the restaurant of the Dolphin Hotel for dinner.

The restaurant at the Dolphin Hotel has a direct view of Santa Monica Beach and the scenery is very beautiful.

During the meal, Heather and Penny were attracted by the beach in Santa Monica, so they made an appointment with Roy to go swimming together in the afternoon.

"Mr. Black, sorry to interrupt your meal, can we chat?"

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, Gerald suddenly appeared and greeted Roy.

Roy had a good impression of Gerald, the black man, so he didn't refuse and followed him to the restaurant's large balcony.

"Mr. Olin, what's going on?"

"About the cabin agent we captured last night."

The cabin agent, is that Sully?

"The cabin agent went completely crazy after waking up this morning. Can you tell me what happened?"

Hearing this, Roy felt a little embarrassed. This must be because his Shadow of Fear was too strong and drove Sully crazy.

But this matter is not easy to explain. It is enough for Saltana to know about Roy's ability. There is no need for other people in FEA to know.

"Well—perhaps the fellow has a guilty conscience and is driving himself mad, or perhaps he is simply pretending to be mad."

Gerald looked at Roy deeply, knowing that the other party didn't want to say it and was forcing an excuse.

"Mr. Black, I understand that everyone has their own secrets. But I hope that next time you find such an important person, you can show mercy so that I can torture him and extract some information."

From what he said, Gerald didn't seem to have any intention of making things difficult for Roy, perhaps because of Saltana's consideration.

"Ahem, I'll try my best!"

"This is my contact information. If you have any questions, you can contact me directly."

Gerald handed over a business card and turned to leave.

Trying to steal Saltana's girl? This guy probably doesn't know his relationship with Saltana, right?

Pursing his lips, Roy put away the business card, returned to the restaurant and left with Heather Penny.

After a short rest, the three of them came to the beach in front of the Dolphin Hotel. Their appearance instantly attracted the attention of most people at the scene.

Roy's body is as perfect as Hercules, full of male hormones, and his face is as handsome as Apollo, making women unable to take their eyes off him.

Heather and Penny beside him are not bad either.

Heather has a baby face and big breasts. After putting on a bikini, she walks with a DuangDuangDuang sound, which is very shocking.

As for Penny, her figure is not as exaggerated as Heather's, but her curves are also very perfect. Combined with her pitiful face, she is also the focus of everyone's attention.

"Ha! Even though I grew up in Los Angeles, I rarely get to visit Santa Monica Beach!"

The west and north parts of Los Angeles have always been gathering places for wealthy people and tourists from other places. In the past, Heather would only come here to work.

But now Heather is financially independent. As long as she doesn't invest as much as those rich second-generations, she will never have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of her life.

"So what do you think now?"

Penny looked at Heather and quietly squatted down on the beach.

"It feels like a dream! I'm really worried that one day I'll open my eyes and find myself still lying in that old apartment."

Roy patted Heather's taillight.

"If this is a dream, then why not just keep dreaming?"

"Roy, you're right!"

At this moment, Penny suddenly grabbed a handful of sand and threw it all over Heather, then turned and ran away.

"Ah! Penny, you actually attacked me!"

"Hahaha! Come and catch me!"

The two girls chased each other on the beach, and the earth shook and the waves surged.
