Upon saying that, Zayn muttered ‘sorry’ to himself. He had no choice but to involve Faye in such an unusual scenario. Just as expected, after hearing his explanation, there was pity in Paxton and Antony’s expressions. If that was the case, there was nothing else they could do. Even though they were Zayn’s superiors, it was a personal matter. They could not force him to do something against his will in such a situation. However, Sienna's eyes widened in astonishment and she exclaimed, “How did you find out that I’m a woman?”She looked rather incredulous, as if Zayn’s ability to recognize her gender was inconceivable. Zayn had no response to that.Meanwhile, Paxton and Antony could not hide their embarrassment. Antony coughed in an attempt to defuse the awkwardness.Zayn had to concede defeat. The woman was constantly under the assumption that she was so adept at concealing her gender that others could not tell. Could it be that she thought she was a man just because she had
Zayn was unaware of Roxanne’s thoughts, but they would not matter in any case. Roxanne was just a nobody to him, and her presence would not affect his life in the slightest. He was far more troubled by Sienna Hoffman. He hoped the madwoman would not come to see him in Waltz City, or he would be in deep trouble!Zayn had had his fill of staying at home over the past few days, so he prepared to report for duty at Insurgent Trifecta. Insurgent Trifecta had treated him rather well, so it was only right for him to show up and explain himself. He would not want to disappoint the other members. Going back to Insurgent Trifecta, Zayn could tell that the atmosphere was quite different from before. It was tainted with a grim solemnity as if it was undergoing a fundamental change. “This is an official military post. No unauthorized entry!”Zayn was stopped by a few guards at the door as he approached the base of Insurgent Trifecta. They stood straight with serious expressions. Judging
“That’s right, corporal. He disobeyed his orders, so shouldn’t we be capturing him?”The six members of Squad 4 were overwhelmed with emotion when they heard that. They looked at Zayn and one of them asked, “Sergeant Larson, why are you here?”The man who spoke was Danny Stone, and he greatly idolized Zayn in the past. Under Zayn’s guidance, his skills improved tremendously, yet his feelings toward his teacher became complicated after Zayn was involved in those incidents. Not only did he feel this way but the other five members of the squad also had such thoughts.Zayn was aware of this, so he said, “I’m here to see Director Pennywise.”Danny considered for a moment before softly replying to Zayn, “Sergeant Larson, I think it’ll be better for you not to come back to the organization anymore. You’re seen as a wanted man, particularly in Insurgent Unifecta and Insurgent Duofecta. If they were to find out that you’ve returned, they’ll certainly come and seize you.”The other five s
Zayn burst out laughing. Everyone looked at him with a frown and could not figure out what he could still laugh about it. Was he attempting to provoke them, or had he lost his mind?Dick said with a deep voice, “Sergeant Larson, you’re a wanted criminal in the country now. If you come here, we are obliged to capture you.”When he finished his sentence, the group began to advance and formed a circle around Zayn. They were fully prepared to attack him at any moment in order to capture him!Even Liam had a very solemn expression on his face. No matter how much he valued Zayn, this situation permitted no further discussion. He had to do his duty as a soldier in the military even if it meant capturing Zayn!He would send Zayn to be tried by court-martial. Danny and the others were astounded by the situation. He hastily said, “What are you doing? Sergeant Larson told us that he had already cleared his name, so there’s no need for you to capture him anymore!”Liam shook his head and
Taio said, “Director Fann, Zayn Larson is so arrogant that he simply disregards the law! We can’t allow him to escape justice! We have to apprehend him so he can be court-martialed!”Hollis immediately chimed in and said, “Director Fann, Cruz is right. Zayn Larson brazenly disobeyed orders, and now, he still has the gall to come back so audaciously. Moreover, he viciously assaulted us before and left us with severe injuries. He’s guilty of the most heinous crimes, so we can’t let him off so easily!”“Also, Insurgent Trifecta is guilty of harboring a criminal and deliberately breaking the law. We must report them to Denali so that they can be punished!”“I don’t think it’s necessary to keep Insurgent Trifecta anymore. Look at how poorly they are managing themselves now!”A tall middle-aged man with a large figure stood in front of Taio and Hollis. He had a square face covered in stubble and seemed imposing. He looked like a malicious man. He was the director of Insurgent Duofecta, J
In Insurgent Trifecta…It had been two days since Zayn’s return. He had largely resumed his old routine, the only difference being that Joe Pennywise had promoted him to the position of chief instructor. With that, even Wolf’s Fang Squad and Dragon’s Blood Squad would have to report to him. This promotion did not strictly comply with the rules, but there were no objections from the other members of Insurgent Trifecta. It seemed even more appropriate after they had learned that the combination of Dick Cheney and Byleth Constantine was still no match for Zayn and had been defeated easily. In fact, they felt that it was an honor to receive Zayn’s guidance. “Oh no, oh no!”In the meeting room, a soldier barged in anxiously. “What are you doing? Why are you panicking?” Liam chided him at once. “Something bad is happening. The members of Insurgent Unifecta and Insurgent Duofecta are here to arrest someone!”The news left Liam slightly stunned. He said, “Speak clearly. Why are th
The people in the meeting room from Insurgent Trifecta were furious that the intruders charged in without permission. However, their fury weakened substantially when they saw Jonah. “Jonah Fann, what are you doing here barging into my Insurgent Trifecta with a bloody army? This is against the law!” Joe stood up and said coldly. Rather than answering Joe, Jonah's eyes swept across the meeting room. He furrowed his brows ever so slightly when he failed to locate Zayn. He then stared at Joe and said, “I’m here to arrest Zayn Larson. Hand him over.”He spoke in a commanding, haughty tone. He and Joe held the same military rank, yet he did not bother to show the slightest respect. He was extremely arrogant and conceited. Joe said, “Jonah Fann, you didn’t even notify me before you came barging in to arrest my man. That’s extremely audacious!”Jonah impatiently replied, “Joe, I won’t dispute over trifles with you. Zayn is a criminal and must be sent to be tried by court-martial. How d
The mood changed. Now, an air of bellicosity hung above the hall. Jonah’s men leveled the rest of the conference room with a charged, predatory look from behind him.Joe’s expression took a turn to dismay as he wailed secretly in his head. He knew very well just how stupidly powerful Jonah Fann was, and if he were being honest, he was sure that the combined strength of every single one of them in the room right now would be no match to Jonah alone. That was excluding attacks from twenty or more superior fights standing behind their primary foe!He was trapped in a dilemma. Must he give Zayn up?!Dick’s famously short fuse was already lit. Snorting, he bristled, “Declaring a war, Jonah? Did the thought ever go through your thick skull? Do you really think Daneli’s gonna let you and your grunts walk away scot-free after stirring up trouble in the Insurgent Trifecta?”Unfortunately, Jonah made it plain just how negligible Dick was to him—he hardly spared the furious man a glance. It f
