I traverse America, using holy light to quell American terror!

Li Yuan got out of the taxi with a shocked expression.

It's quite surprising to see this term in a modern city.

However, this has nothing to do with him anymore.

Having completed his task, Li Yuan strode into the airport, ready to buy a ticket back to Los Angeles.

Just as Li Yuan was looking down and texting with Megan,

An unfamiliar phone number called.

After Li Yuan answered the call, a man's voice came from the other end:

"Hello, are you Mr. Li Yuan?"

Judging from the man's somewhat urgent voice, Li Yuan guessed that the other party might have come to ask him to exorcise a demon.

Li Yuan replied politely:

"That's right, I'm Li Yuan. Is there anything I can do to help you?"

"My name is Charles. Mr. Kaplan recommended that I make this call."

Charles introduced himself and then, without waiting for Li Yuan to interject, quickly got to the point:

"My daughter has been kidnapped. If you are still in New York, I hope you can help me."

Li Yuan, who had assumed it was a request for exorcism, was taken aback and said somewhat awkwardly:

"I'm still in New York..."

Li Yuan thought to himself, somewhat speechless:

"If you ask me to rescue the hostages, I might end up killing both the hostages and the kidnappers..."

After a moment's hesitation, he declined the other party's request:

"But I'm an exorcist, and I'm not good at hostage rescue work. I'm sorry I can't help you."

"Mr. Li, please wait a moment!"

Charles sensed that Li Yuan was about to hang up, so he quickly spoke up:

"I've seen the video of you saving Juno. With your skills, you can definitely save my daughter."

"this..."

Li Yuan stroked his chin, somewhat hesitant, unsure whether he should accept the commission.

After all, if something unexpected happens, it could ruin their reputation.

"100 million! If you can save my daughter, I'll give you 100 million!"

Sensing the hesitation in Li Yuan's tone, Charles decisively offered his price.

"make a deal!"

Upon hearing the price, Li Yuan readily accepted the commission.

He decided to shoot the hostage first, and then kill the robber.

As long as the other party's daughter is still alive, he can save her!

Li Yuan silently confirmed his own thoughts and immediately asked:

"Where is the location?"

"I...I don't know either, but my hired team has found a clue!"

After exchanging a few quiet words with the others, Charles quickly asked:

"Mr. Li, could you tell me where you are? I'll send someone to pick you up."

"Okay, I'm waiting for you outside Kennedy Airport."

After giving his location, Li Yuan hung up the phone and waited for Charles's men to come find him.

A moment later, a black Chevrolet Suburban slowly pulled up in front of Li Yuan.

The car door opened, and a capable-looking middle-aged man with short blond hair said to Li Yuan:

"Hello, my name is Lucello, and I work for Mr. Charles."

Li Yuan's gaze swept over the mercenary squad inside the car, who were dressed in black bodysuits and armed to the teeth.

He introduced himself as "Li Yuan, an exorcist."

Upon hearing Li Yuan's profession, the people on the bus had various expressions, but none of them said much.

Lucero, who was leading the group, greeted Li Yuan with a friendly smile:

"Hehe, Mr. Charles told me, come on up, we're leaving now."

After getting on the bus, Li Yuan realized that there were seven people on the bus, including himself.

The most special part is the middle section of the carriage.

Sitting there was a man with injuries all over his body, and his left hand was in a cast.

Lucello noticed Li Yuan's gaze and introduced him with a smile:

"This is Ah Jin; we need him to find our target."

Li Yuan asked with a puzzled look:

"Oh? Does he have any special abilities?"

The man looked thin and frail, and didn't seem particularly special.

"He was the only survivor who escaped from the Collectors."

"The Collector?"

The name instantly pulled Li Yuan out of the story, reminding him of a game he played in his past life.

At this moment, Ah Jin, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke.

He lowered his head and said in a slightly trembling voice:

"After each massacre, he would collect a live prey to take back and play with, and I was one of them."

Upon hearing the term again, Li Yuan asked with some curiosity:

"Have you ever seen what he looks like?"

A strange glint flashed in Akin's eyes, then he shook his head:

"No, no one has ever seen what he looks like. He always wears a hooded mask."

Hearing Ah Jin's words, Li Yuan was momentarily confused.

Is this actually a scene from a movie?

But masked psychopathic killers are countless in movies and TV shows.

For a moment, he couldn't be sure whether this was part of a movie plot.

Just then, Ah Jin looked out the car window and said:

"This is the place, let's begin."

Then he closed his eyes and slowly rolled up the sleeve of his right arm.

Li Yuan looked curiously at A Jin's arm.

His right forearm was covered with red bloodstains!

As the car moved, Ajin's fingers slowly traced the wound, while simultaneously guiding the driver.

Lucello, standing nearby, whispered to Li Yuan:

"This is where Akin was captured; he was locked in the box when..."

He used the wounds he inflicted to calculate the car's trajectory.

"This guy is really ruthless to himself!"

Li Yuan exclaimed in surprise, then froze on the spot.

Because he suddenly remembered which movie it was!

"Damn, this time we're dealing with another monster..."

At this moment, Lucero took out a photograph and handed it to Li Yuan:

"This is Mr. Charles's daughter."

Li Yuan was stunned again when he took the photo.

The woman in the photo, with her beautiful face and fair skin, looks so different from the one I remember.

He remembered that the wealthy woman who was captured in the movie was a short-haired girl.

But the woman in the photo looked increasingly familiar.

A moment later, Li Yuan's eyes widened:

"Isn't that Big Leo?"

Lucero asked, somewhat surprised:

"Do you know Miss Alexandra?"

"Oh... I've heard from friends that I know some people in the entertainment industry."

Li Yuan casually made up a couple of sentences.

At this time, Alexandra had probably just entered the entertainment industry and was still just a minor character.

But her family is very powerful; her father is a prosecutor in the Washington district.

Just as Li Yuan was lost in thought, Ah Jin reminded him...

The car soon arrived in Bushwick, Brooklyn, New York.

At that time, New York had not yet made any plans for this area.

The communities here are all very old houses and sparsely populated.

Those who choose to live here are all people struggling to make ends meet.

Some homeless people who are alcoholics and drug addicts still live in some tents by the roadside.

As the car slowly drove towards an abandoned hotel,

Ah Jin, who had been keeping his eyes closed, suddenly opened them:

"Stop the car! This is it."

Upon hearing the commotion, the mercenaries on the vehicle quickly prepared their equipment, getting ready for the upcoming battle.

Lucero then asked Li Yuan:

"Do you need a weapon?"

"No, I'm used to using my own."

Li Yuan raised his right hand and shook the Glock 21 in his hand.

Lucero's eyes narrowed slightly; he hadn't seen Li Yuan draw his gun at all.

He didn't even realize that Li Yuan was carrying a weapon!

Lucero felt a little more at ease; it seemed this exorcist was indeed quite capable.

He turned to look at the abandoned hotel, took out two pieces of wire, and said to Ah Jin beside him:

"Can you help us get in?"

Akin hesitated for a moment, then said nervously:

"I'll open the door for you, and then you have to let me leave."

Lucero didn't say anything, but simply handed the wire to Akin.

After taking the wire, Akin stared into Lucero's eyes for a moment, then silently walked slowly toward the hotel door.
