Chapter 794 The Software

Ronin’s mental defenses crumbled, and the masked man gloated over his handiwork. He’d tormented Ronin for two days. He withheld food and drink and kept Ronin trapped in a dank, gloomy space. He knew well that Ronin was different from Catherine.

Although Ronin had faced hardships since childhood, he hadn’t undergone the excruciating training Catherine had endured. He couldn’t endure such inhumane torture. Breaking through his mental defenses wasn’t too challenging.

The masked man pulled out some medication from his pocket and tended to Ronin’s wounds. Watching Ronin’s expression change, he felt immensely satisfied. “You don’t have any grudges against me. There’s no need for it to come to this. It’s Catherine we’re after, and she is the one we’re dealing with. If you help us out, not only will I release you to recover, but I’ll also ensure you receive a substantial fortune and let you go away.”

Ronin’s gaze wavered, and his resolve weakened.

Rather than pressuring Ronin, the masked man kindly instructed someone to bring food for Ronin. “My kindness isn’t unconditional. Think it over if you want to accept this meal.”

After Ronin hesitated momentarily, he reached out and accepted the food. Then he murmured, “Bring me paper and pen. I’ll give you a way to contact Catherine privately.”

“Alright!” The masked man left cheerfully with the information provided by Ronin.

Ronin devoured the meal voraciously. He remembered Catherine’s instructions that no matter what happened, he shouldn’t let himself be mistreated. He followed Catherine’s advice to the letter and didn’t dare to forget it.

It had been three days, and there was still no word from Francis and Carlo. Ronin seemed to vanish into thin air.

Over at the school, Catherine personally arranged for Ronin’s leave. Ronin’s mentor treasured Ronin like a gem. Considering Ronin frequently took days off, he didn’t find anything amiss.
