Chapter 811: Red Hood (Part 2)

Jason struggled with all his might, but the other party did not make any further moves, but made a gesture to him, pointed to his own chest, and then waved his hand, meaning he had no malice, but Jason didn't believe it at all.

In a place like Cat Getan, you must have the heart to harm others, but you must also have the heart to guard against others. People like this who wear masks and sneak into rooms in the middle of the night must be even more vigilant.

Because Jason was the leader of the gang, he had a single room at the very edge of the base and didn't sleep with other children. And he struggled desperately just to let the other party let go of his hand and not cover his mouth. As long as he could make some noise, there would definitely be children running to call for help.

"Jason Todd, I have no malice, I want to ask you for help!" The person opposite said. Jason felt this tone was a bit familiar, but he was very sure that he had never heard this voice.

If he had to describe it, it was a bit like someone in the late stage of throat cancer with a torn vocal cord. It wasn't that the other party almost had no accent, the pronunciation was very standard, and Jason had just taken a few grammar classes, he couldn't hear clearly what the other party was saying.

"Woo woo!" Jason called twice, meaning "You let me go first."

"I can let you go now, but you absolutely cannot make a sound. Believe me, I will subdue you before you make a sound." The person opposite said a long sentence, but Jason could only understand half of it.

This freak's voice was really too hoarse, and there were many places that were breathy, intermittent, and couldn't be heard clearly. Jason could understand it entirely because his comprehension was high.

Jason sighed silently in his heart. He had already determined that the other party was not a mafia member, because a real mafia member wouldn't say such things. He nodded and made a reassuring gesture, and the other party really let him go.

Jason twisted his neck, didn't make a sound, but lowered his voice and said: "What kind of freak are you from? What are you looking for me for? Don't you see I'm sleeping?!"

Saying that, Jason walked to the wall and turned on the room's light. After the light filled the room, he turned his head to look at that person.

The other party wore a red hood, which looked like leather, allowing Jason to see some contours of his features.

But this was also useless. Jason couldn't judge who the other party was. He looked at this freak with some doubt and asked: "Who are you, why are you dressed like this?"

"This is not important..." When the freak opened his mouth, his voice was still very hoarse. He said: "I need your help, Jason Todd."

"You have to answer my question first before I can answer yours. This is Cat Getan's rule." Jason walked up, looked up at this freak wearing a red hood, and asked: "What are you wearing on your head? Why are you wearing this thing? You shouldn't be one of those lunatics who make explosions every day, right?"

Hearing this question, the person opposite reached out his hand, uncovered the bottom of the hood, and revealed the skin underneath. Jason was a bit scared, because he had no skin at all. The muscles under the skin were like they had been burned, exposed to the outside. He heard the other party say in a low voice:

"I once suffered severe burns and was disfigured, so I can only live with a mask. Jason, can you help me?"

Jason wrinkled his face and said: "... What can I help you with?"

The person wearing the red hood half-squatted down, held Jason's shoulders with both hands, and said: "You are the child king here, right? I want to ask you to teach me how to become a mafia..."

Jason widened his eyes. He never expected the freak opposite to have such a request. He felt very absurd and said: "Mafia?? Learning how to become a mafia, you... are you crazy?"

"No, I'm not crazy." The person opposite said very seriously and earnestly: "I am not a mafia member, but I want to become a mafia member. Can you teach me how to do it?"

"This..." Jason was really choked, he said: "You are not a mafia, but you want to be a mafia. But does this have any meaning? You can survive even if you are not a mafia member, so why do you want to be a mafia?"

The person opposite was obviously prepared, he said: "Yes, I survived, but I didn't live well. Otherwise, how do you think the injuries on my body came from?"

Jason's movements paused, he felt that what the other party said made sense, but he still discovered one point, he said: "The three streets nearby are all mafia territory. If you were really a weak ordinary person, you couldn't have sneaked in."

"In other words, you have the ability to sneak in here, why do you still want to join the mafia? They can't even find you."

The person opposite seemed not to have expected Jason to be so smart and sharp. He paused, then said: "Okay, I didn't want to join the mafia because of livelihood, but I can't tell you the specific reason, because if I told you, you wouldn't be willing to let me learn."

"What kind of logic is this? Why wouldn't you let me learn if you told me?" Jason asked very curiously. He really felt that the person opposite was very strange. Not sleeping in the middle of the night, running to find him to learn mafia knowledge?

"Because..." The person opposite paused again and said: "In short, I can't tell you the reason, but I really hope you can help me, Jason. I heard you are the most powerful child king of this generation..."

"Don't use this trick on me." Jason stared and looked up and down at this freak and said: "I won't be moved by a few sweet words. Who wants to teach you this freak? Get out quickly! I still have to sleep!"

After speaking, he walked to the bed without looking back, lay down, and prepared to sleep.

It seemed that there was really no other way. The freak wearing the red hood could only come to the bedside, leaned over, and said: "Jason, you are a very smart child. Have you ever thought about what caused the current situation in Cat Getan?"

"This place is different from other cities, but it has a unique order. Breaking the existing order will only lead to more chaos, but if you do nothing, it is equivalent to chronic suicide..." The tone of the opposite side lowered. Although his voice made it very difficult for him to speak, it still carried an inexplicable attraction, allowing Jason to listen attentively.

"Someone has to solve this problem, right? Someone has to find the answer. But if you don't learn or study, how can you find the answer?"

Jason opened his mouth and said: "Professor Schiller's words are actually true, there really is someone willing to learn this kind of thing?"

Jason didn't notice that as soon as the syllable "Schiller" appeared, the fingertips of the freak wearing the red hood trembled. Jason thought for a while and then said: "You said you wanted to solve this problem, but can you do it?"

"How would I know if I don't try?" The other party said very firmly: "If you don't go to the field to investigate, there will never be progress."

Jason leaned on the head of the bed, his arms pillowing behind his head, nodded and said: "What you said is also right. Although things are difficult, if you don't work hard at all, there will never be progress."

After speaking, he looked at the head wearing the red hood beside him and said: "You are really a freak, daring to appear in Cat Getan dressed like this. Are you afraid that those mafia members won't find a target?"

After speaking, he rolled off the bed, walked to his cabinet, and said: "That thing you are wearing on your head is like saying to all mafia members, come and hit my head..."

After speaking, he opened the drawer, took out a pistol, and aimed it at the freak wearing the red hood, saying: "Okay, the first lesson of the Cat Getan mafia is, have a gun in hand, don't panic in your heart."

"Jason, I came to ask for your help very sincerely, and the reason I did this is because I know you are not a heinous criminal. You are almost more reasonable than anyone here, and I really need help very much..."

Jason didn't put down the gun, but looked into his eyes and said: "

"Even if I want to pull the trigger now and blow your head off, you still intend to stay here and do nothing?"

Red Hood turned his face over. Although he couldn't see his expression with the mask, Jason could be sure that his gaze was very focused.

The two looked at each other for a few seconds. Jason slowly put down the pistol and said: "Although your vigilance is not very good, your judgment of people is quite accurate. This should be a good start. If you can distinguish who can be provoked and who cannot, at least you can save your own little life..."

"You said you wanted to learn how to be a mafia member, so what exactly do you want to learn?"

"How to be a mafia member, how to survive, how to live, how to live better in a society composed of mafia?"

Jason stood in place, hugged his arms, and sighed: "Then don't you think you found the wrong target? Do I look like I'm living well?"

"But I can't go directly to the Godfather." Red Hood said very calmly: "Even if I could see him, what he teaches is not what I want to learn. I don't want to re-establish the same order as the mafia society, but to eradicate this problem."

Jason shook his head and said: "You are probably dreaming."

But soon, he continued: "If you are willing to pay the reward, I can help you, but I have to tell you, it is very difficult for an outsider to survive here. And if you want to join a mafia, you have to follow the rules there. And if you don't know anything, you will die very quickly."

"Precisely because of this, I came to find you. I know that the mafia won't recruit people casually, so I want to ask you to help introduce me. Although I don't understand anything, I will definitely not cause trouble, and I learn very quickly. In just one week, I can work."

Jason sneered and said: "Ask me to help introduce you? Who do you think I am? A young master in the Twelve Families? I'm just a stray child. If I had such great ability, I wouldn't be staying here."

"But I know that only you will help me." The person wearing the red hood shook his head and said: "Others won't accept this reason, they will only think I am a lunatic."

Jason was silent for a while and said: "You are a lunatic. I just learned a word from Professor Schiller called cross-dressing. I think you must be a patient with this disease."

"But what you said is also right. In the whole Cat Getan, except for me, no one will help you for this reason. Because you don't understand anything, I can tell you that I don't like the mafia at all, but I also know that I can't change all this. If someone wants to try, I don't mind helping him."

Jason took the pistol out of the drawer again and said: "Now, my words don't have much weight. Even introducing you to the smallest mafia here is very difficult. But if I can perform a great service, get to know some upper-level figures, and bring the mafia boss here to show his face, it will be different."

He walked out with the pistol. After reaching the door, he looked at Red Hood and said: "If you are afraid of danger, stay here. But I have to go out and wander now. The early bird catches the worm."

"What are you going to do?" Red Hood asked.

"Find an opportunity to help you." ===== CHAPTER 812 =====
