I Am Unstoppable

Chapter 256

“I don't know,” said Jonathan.

His answer was enough to make the others feel speechless. However, since Jonathan made it clear that he did not want to answer that question, Gerald stopped asking. He knew Jonathan was not someone he could offend.

After that incident, Gerald was no longer in the mood to get intimate with Sonya. Instead, he turned around and looked at Sonya as he said, “Sleep on the other side. I feel suffocated to have you pressing on top of me.”

Hearing that, Jonathan and Johanna could barely stifle a burst of laughter.

Sonya blushed at that. She scolded Gerald before settling in the upper bunk bed on the other side.

After hearing the movements outside through the door for a while, Johanna noticed nothing unusual, so she stood up.

Jonathan did not stop her either. He only teased her for fun instead of intending to take advantage of Johanna or cross the line with her.

Still, Johanna dared not leave the room. Instead, she decided to sleep in the lower bunk bed on the other side.

The night passed by peacefully.

It was fast to travel on a high-speed rail. At six o'clock in the morning, the sky was still dark, but there was an announcement that the train would arrive at the Willowbank station in five minutes, telling the passengers who wanted to get off the train to get ready.

Johanna sat up after hearing the announcement. She barely slept last night, and when she occasionally dozed off, she was constantly awakened by her nightmares.

Meanwhile, Jonathan also sat up. He had planned to get off at the Willowbank station.

Seeing that Jonathan was preparing to get off the train, Johanna looked delighted and said, “I'm getting off at this station too. Should we go together?”

Jonathan touched the tip of his nose and chuckled at that. “You're quite brave, aren't you? You have an assassin hunting you now. What if the assassin finds you and decides to take my life too?”

That question startled Johanna. Then, she grabbed her suitcase and walked away. After that, she ignored Jonathan. It looked like she had quite a temper.

However, Jonathan was not bothered about that.

After Johanna left the room, Gerald immediately poked out his head and said to Jonathan, “Dude, that woman is so pretty! I am so tempted to make a move on her. You should lie to her that you can protect her and get off the station together. Who knows? You might end up in bed together tonight!”

Jonathan laughed. “Dude, you make it sound so easy. Why don't you do it yourself?”

Gerald laughed awkwardly. “I wish I could, but I have a certain someone keeping her eyes on me.”

Jonathan laughed in response. Then, without saying anything else, he left the room.

He did not bring any suitcase with him as he was used to traveling around in a carefree manner.

The Willowbank station was big and busy. Hence, many passengers were getting off the train when it arrived at the station.

Johanna also intended to blend into the massive crowd and leave the station without anyone noticing her.

Sure enough, Jonathan was not serious about leaving Johanna alone. Although he had a sharp tongue, he was still a kind-hearted man. It was his habit to help someone in need. Following the crowd, Johanna moved ahead inside the train, whereas Jonathan paid close attention to the surrounding in case the assassin showed up.


Fortunately, he saw no sign of the assassin for the time being.

Jonathan could not help but wonder about Johanna's background when he thought of the assassin. The assassin's cultivation seemed to be in Peak Neutralizing Force, and he was great at using sharp daggers. An assassin at his level was considered outstanding even at the international level. Yet, such a skilled assassin was sent to deal with a weak woman like Johanna. He could not understand the reason behind it.

Soon, Johanna walked out of the train while blending into the massive crowd. Meanwhile, Jonathan also moved like lightning among the crowd, following closely behind Johanna, but she did not notice him.

Once they got off the train, the passenger crowd instantly flowed together with the massive crowd in the station as they all continued moving toward the exits.

A situation like this greatly benefited Johanna's plan as it made it easier for Johanna to sneak out of the station.

At the same time, a crowded situation was certainly an advantage to the assassin too. Once he spotted Johanna in the crowd, he could skillfully kill Johanna without anyone noticing and quietly slipped away into the crowd without leaving any trace behind.

All the assassin needed to do was to find Johanna. Once that happened, she would be doomed.

Johanna quickly squeezed her way into the crowd without bothering about anything else.

Before moving any further, she suddenly saw a face in the crowd ten meters away from her.

At that moment, she was terrified.

It was the assassin from before.

His expression was icy cold. It was also at this moment that he finally spotted Johanna in the crowd.

The assassin immediately made a move.

Johanna quickly ran ahead. However, she did not know martial arts or movement techniques, so she could not run any faster when she was stuck in a crowd.

As an expert in Peak Neutralizing Force, the assassin had honed his movements to perfection. By just taking several leaps, he had already arrived in front of Johanna.

Seeing that her path was blocked, Johanna stared at the assassin's icy cold face and felt a strong surge of murderous intent flowing into her meridians.

Her face turned deathly pale instantly, and she froze all over. She could not move an inch as her mind went completely blank.

Death was the only thing that occurred to her at that moment, instead of her husband and child.

A cold glint flickered in the assassin's eyes while another cold flash of his blade quickly slashed toward Johanna's fair neck.

It was certainly a strike aimed at her throat.

At that precise moment, Jonathan also made a move.

He appeared next to Johanna like a ghost and snaked an arm around her soft waist. Then, he swiftly reached out two fingers. Like a clamp, Jonathan caught the assassin's dagger between his fingers.

Before the assassin could react, Jonathan immediately released his Heavenly Hook through the dagger.

The assassin felt a tremendous tremble from the blade. Then, a paralyzing electric current struck him.

It shook off the assassin's grip around the dagger, and he was also forced to take several steps backward.

Jonathan smiled at the assassin and tossed the dagger back at him. “I'll give you back your dagger, but I am protecting this woman, so stop coming after her.”

The assassin was horrified and finally got a better look at Jonathan's face. He recognized Jonathan as the ignorant man from last night but was surprised to learn that Jonathan was a hidden opponent who was very powerful.

Jonathan ignored the assassin and left with Johanna.

She was so terrified that she felt weak all over. After a long moment, Johanna finally returned to her senses.

Noticing that, Jonathan let go of her, but Johanna immediately said, “Hold me.” She was still too weak to walk on her own.

Then, Jonathan snaked his arm around her soft waist again.

Johanna was startled and immediately blushed. This jerk... I told him to hold me, but not like this!

Still, she could not be bothered by that as she leaned weakly in Jonathan's arms.

“Did you save me?” Johanna asked as they stepped out of the exits together. They were still walking among the crowd.

Jonathan asked nonchalantly, “Who else if not me?”

“What about the assassin?” Johanna immediately asked.

“He left. Don't worry. He won't come back again.”

“But why? Why did he leave just like that?” Johanna was in disbelief.

Jonathan put on a straight face and explained, “You were in a daze just now, so I guess you didn't hear our conversation. Well, it's simple. He wanted to kill you, but I went to him and persuaded him with much effort. I told him it's the twenty-first century now. He shouldn't be hunting for lives in this modern era. I advised him to go home, go back to school and work hard. In the end, he seemed to have thought through what I told him and left.”

Naturally, Johanna wouldn't believe Jonathan's nonsense.

She took another glance at him and murmured, “How strange.”
