Chương 33: Chapter 34: The tail moves

Adam arrived over Paleto City and flew overhead. People looked up at the sonic boom and saw a red beam of light shoot across the sky, making them wonder what it could be. In a wealthy part of the city, residents heard a sonic boom, causing some of them to step outside just in time to witness a red beam of light land in front of one of the larger houses in their area before revealing itself to be some sort of futuristic-looking combat suit with what looked like wings and a tail.

They watched in shock and awe as the glowing wings began to retract and disappeared as the man approached the large house and kicked the door in. Adam stormed into the house and followed the directions on his HUD's mini map showing the location of the only lifeform in the building. Spector had used Earth satellites' thermal imagery to determine where in the house Donald Jefferson was located.

As Adam kicked open the door to the office, a gunshot rang out before the bullet harmlessly bounced off the anti-gravity armour. [Noobkiller9000 (Earth): Oh shit.] [Gunlovergirl (Earth): A Heckler and Koch VP9SK OR.] [StealthAssassin9 (Earth): You really do know every gun, don't you?] [Gunlovergirl (Earth): Yup.] [1000yearsofdeath (Earth): That guy just fucked up. Kekeke] [Tessisdabest (Imperial Down): Moron, imagine thinking such a low calibre projectile could penetrate the anti-gravity armour.] [Whostolemyduck (Earth): Begs the question why he shot straight away, I guess that proves he's The Informant.] Adam looked down at the bullet before looking up at Donald Jefferson.

"Who the hell are you, and how dare you invade my property?" Donald Jefferson asked in fear.

"You know exactly who I am, Donald Jefferson, and I know exactly who you are, The Informant." Donald's eyes twitched slightly upon hearing the alias, but he quickly recovered; however, Adam, with his cybernetic eye, caught it easily.

"I am Donald Jefferson; however, I don't know who this informant you're talking about is."

"You, The Informant who only a few hours ago contacted Francis Morose to inform him that I was aiming to kill him."

"What?" Donald replied, pretending not to know what he was on about.

"You hired a same-day courier to deliver something to Francis Morose, which I suspect was a phone that I was not hacking so that you could inform him without giving away your position."

"Unfortunately for you, you seriously underestimated my abilities because by using satellite footage, I was able to backtrace the route the courier took from Paleto City to Alamo City."

"I also checked the courier's history and found the transaction you paid for and your details, rather sloppy, Mr Jefferson."

"After that, I ran a complete check on you and found that you always seemed to contact certain influential individuals or companies before they made suspicious last-minute changes in their policies or actions. Your offshore bank account always got a large increase after this took place."

"I know everything about you and your business operations. It really is amazing what you can find if you follow the money and the digital footprints people leave behind." [StealthAssassin9 (Earth): Damn big brother at work.] [Whostolemyduck (Earth): Looks like Beinglittle was right about him being able to hack into any computer system on Earth.]"Now the only thing I need you to tell me is who at James Fleming's birthday party talked."

Donald Jefferson's eyes were wide with shock; he couldn't believe he had made such a foolish mistake in arranging the courier to pick up the parcel from his own house, even after deciding it was best to use a new phone so that it could not be traced back to him. Because of this, all his information had been hacked and accessed, and this individual knew who he really was. This novel is published on a different platform.

However, he would never and could never admit to such a thing; if the police found out he was The Informant, he would spend the rest of his life in prison.

"I still have no idea who you're talking about. Now, please leave my house, or I will be forced to call the police." [DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Stubborn fool, he doesn't realise that the streamer has him over a barrel.] [AlamoMatador4thewin (Earth): He probably does, but fear of life in prison is blinding him.] [Beczontop (Imperial Down): He would rather face death than prison time?] [Justiceistruth: (Earth): He probably believes that he still has a chance to walk out of this with his life. After all, random murders are not so common, well, not in places rich people live.]"This can go the easy way, or the hard way, Mr Jefferson."

"What, what do you mean?"

"Tell me who talked willingly, or I will be forced to make you tell me."

"I, I don't know who you're talking about. Even if I did, why do you care so much?"

"They almost cost me the chance to exact my revenge on Viktor; fortunately, I was able to intercept his aircraft and eliminate him."

"You intercepted an aircraft and now Viktor Morose is dead?"

"No, no, Viktor and Francis Morose are dead," Adam said coldly as he started walking towards Donald.

"Stay, stay back." He stammered as he pointed the shaking gun in his hands at Adam.

"Tell me what I want to know, and this will be quick; otherwise, it will be slow and painful."

"Stay, STAY AWAY," Donald shouted before. BANG BANG BANG BANG. He kept pulling the trigger even after he ran out of bullets.

"The hard way it is," Adam growled as he stalked towards Donald and reached for his blaster. However, before he could unholster it, the anti-gravity suit's tail shot forward and pierced Donald through the chest before lifting him up and holding him in front of Adam in mid-air.

"GAHHHHHHHH", Donald screamed in pain as blood fell to the floor. [Forever1stCommenter (Earth): …] [Noobkiller9000 (Earth): FUCK!] [Gunlovergirl (Earth): OH SHIT.] [SciFifanboy (Earth): THAT'S SO SCIFI, it's dark as fuck, but IT'S SO SCIFI.] [Superhearofangirl (Earth): Oh gods, I'm gonna puke.] [1000yearsofdeath (Earth): Does this stream have an age warning on it? kekeke.] [DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): Wow, he used the tail as a weapon, as we Deverinians do. I must say I'm impressed.] [Beczontop (Imperial Down): That's cool.] [Tessisdabest (Imperial Down): Nodding head emoji.] [Solarianpride11 (Solarian 4): I did wonder if it could be used like that when I first saw it.] [Celebrityhunter69 (Earth): Look at all the blood, streamer, turn down the blood effects setting.] [StealthAssassin9 (Earth): This is IRL, not a game he can't.] [Justiceistruth: (Earth): Seriously though, how has the streaming platform not banned him yet? I mean, he has killed how many people, and now this?] [Whostolemyduck (Earth): Apparently, they can't.] [Justiceistruth: (Earth): What?] [Whostolemyduck (Earth): There's a post about it online. After it was confirmed that the streamer had really killed IRL on stream, the platform tried to ban him; however, they are incapable of doing so for some reason.] [StealthAssassin9 (Earth): Then why are there not more people in here after seeing a post like that?] [Noobkiller9000 (Earth): They probably think it's a publicity stunt by the streaming platform.]"Help, help me cough, cough," Donald said as he coughed up more blood. Adam looked at his tail in surprise as he did not expect that to happen, but he just shrugged and decided to roll with it. He was planning to use setting two on his blaster to torture Donald until he gave up the information; however, the tail saved him the effort of drawing his blaster.

"Tell me who talked, Mr Jefferson and the pain will stop."

"Cough cough help me HELP ME I'M GOING TO DIE." As if sensing Adam's annoyance, the tail twisted, making the half moon end inside Donald's gut, rotate and carve away at his insides, causing blood and body parts to drop out.

"GAAAAHHHHHHHHH." [Superhearofangirl (Earth): OH MY FUCKING GOD I CAN'T WATCH THIS.] [Noobkiller9000 (Earth): That's nasty as fuck.] [Beczontop (Imperial Down): Are those his guts spilling out over the floor?] [DeverinianLordMalacoss (Deverinian 9): This is fascinating, maybe I should recommend our anti-gravity armours be equipped with this half moon end for their tails, it seems to be a great torture device.] [Solarianpride11 (Solarian 4): Damn Deverinian savage.] [Gunlovergirl (Earth): How long can he last like that?] [1000yearsofdeath (Earth): We might just get to find out if he doesn't talk. Kekeke.]"I'm still waiting for you to tell me, Mr Jefferson, or would you rather endure more pain?"

"No cough, cough no please, I will cough, I will tell you, just no more, I beg of cough you."

"Her name, cough, her name is…HELP HELP ME COUGH" However, just as he was about to talk, he suddenly started shouting for help as he saw someone rush into the room holding a gun. The man who was dressed as a security guard looked at the awful scene before raising his gun and firing. BANG BANG
