I Am Unstoppable novel

Chapter 38 Shrouded In Mystery
Thundro had nowhere to hide this time around. All he could do was gather his spirit in his abdominal area. Then, he hollered and
charged forward fearlessly with a punch.
The clash of their fists released a thunderous sound. Jonathan’s Spiralite broke the intensity of Thundro’s fist instantly. A wave of
spiraling electricity penetrated Thundro’s fist, sending his body numb.
Thundro’s body shook abruptly. He did it for a reason. It was as though a rooster had captured a centipede, and the latter was
struggling to break free. The rooster then shook abruptly to dissipate the centipede’s energy.
The same applied to the two men. Thundro dissipated Jonathan’s spiraling electric force before squatting down abruptly and
restraining the latter with his strong arms.
The locking strategy was terrific. Once Thundro restrained Jonathan in his arms, he would gather his utmost power to break the
latter’s bone.
Jonathan was slightly shocked. He was surprised to learn that Thundro had such combat skills. Thundro was an ace martial
artist who moved at a lightning speed. Keeping himself calm, Jonathan put his hands down and turned them outward, awaiting
Thundro to come forward. His hands turned into Dragon Claws and grabbed Thundro’s arms.
With that, his hands would become thorny thistles that gave Thundro an excruciating pain.
Thundro panicked when he realized Jonathan’s true capability. The man had covered himself with thorns from top to bottom, and
his combat skills were brilliant. Each of the changes he made was a headache to Thundro. At that sight, Thundro dared not
charge forward to restrain Jonathan anymore. He changed his strategy to prop himself with his hands on the ground and swept
his legs abruptly.

That created a similar effect as a sandstorm!
Thundro knew that he wouldn’t be able to kill Jonathan on that day. His only plan was to escape right away.
Meanwhile, Jonathan didn’t dodge the sweeping attack by Thundro at all. Instead, he gave the latter a direct kick.
Bang!
The crisp sound of Thundro’s leg bone breaking rang out. The man screamed out loudly instantly.
Jonathan then lifted his finger. A wave of energy shot out from the tip of his finger before landing on Thundro’s veins.
Immediately, it froze Thundro’s blood circulation, causing a blockage. If Thundro tried to unblock it with force, his veins would
explode.
That was Jonathan’s skill – Heavenly Acupressure.
Acupressure was nothing like the descriptions in books where people became motionless once their pressure points got pointed.
The acupressure skill that he used was an advanced version of that. It could freeze one’s blood circulation, but one was still able
to walk and talk as usual. The only restraint was one couldn’t use any force. That was because using force required the transport
of oxygen. When the blood vessels were blocked, using force would cause them to break apart.
Just then, the lights in the room lit up again.
The police rushed over in a hurry and were stunned upon seeing the scene.
Jonathan was sitting on one corner lazily, looking somewhat carefree.
Amber initially wanted to stop the cremation of Bethany’s body. However, when she was on her way, the police officer from
earlier called and informed her that the body had been cremated. Amber was furious upon hearing that. She shouted at the
police officer right away. Little did she know that the officer had been bribed. Otherwise, Bethany’s body wouldn’t be cremated so
soon.
At the same time, Amber had also received a call from the police station that something strange was happening in the room
where Jonathan was detained.

She rushed back to the police station immediately upon hearing that news.
As soon as she entered the station, she was greeted by the sight of Damian’s body. Thundro also got sent to the hospital to get
his wounds treated.
Amber took Jonathan to the interrogation room again.
“You stole my gun, didn’t you?” she asked the man.
Jonathan smiled as he replied, “I didn’t steal it. I borrowed your gun.”
Amber didn’t intend to pursue that matter further. She was still terrified whenever she thought about it. Moreover, she had also
confirmed that something was not quite right with the whole incident. Immediately, she asked again, “How did you know that
someone was coming after you?”
Jonathan replied, “It’s simple. Leonardo doesn’t intend to send me to jail. He wants me dead. Furthermore, he doesn’t want
anyone to investigate Bethany’s death. Hence, he will cremate her body first before sending two of his subordinates to end my
life. Finally, he will bring my dead body to the police car, making it seem as if I’ve run away out of guilt. The police car would then
definitely be met with an accident, making it seem as if I died in the accident. With that, he could hit two birds with one stone by
having me killed while making everything look seamless. I think it’s redundant for you to investigate me here. You should go after
Leonardo instead.”
Amber gazed at Jonathan intently. This guy sure is smart! Nonetheless, it wouldn’t make sense for her to investigate Leonardo at
that point as the latter didn’t come into the picture for all that had happened. Everything was merely Jonathan’s one-sided
speculation.
Moreover, Leonardo was well-connected in Jipsdale. His family was also influential in Yaleview. Amber had no right to carry out
an investigation on Leonardo.
At the same time, she received another call.
It was a call from the hospital. Thundro got saved by someone, and his current whereabouts were unknown.
She couldn’t help cursing inwardly at that news. Initially, she wanted to unveil Leonardo’s involvement in that matter by
interrogating Thundro. Now, she had no way to investigate Leonardo as Thundro was gone.

Amber fell into deep thoughts.
After a short pause, she said, “Bethany’s body has been cremated. Her family is certain that you are behind this. The evidence
on the autopsy report is disadvantageous to you. What do you think I should do now?”
Jonathan knew that the matter was tricky to resolve. Since Bethany’s family was certain that he was the culprit of her death, and
he had no evidence to prove his innocence, the autopsy report would simply make him appear more guilty regardless of how he
explained himself.
It was indeed a court case with a slim chance of winning.
At that stage, it was almost impossible for Jonathan to be absolved of the charges made against him and to leave the police
station. Though Damian’s corpse could be a big help as a piece of solid evidence, it was still considered a one-sided story that
the court wouldn’t take seriously.
After all, Leonardo was powerful enough to get the outcome he wanted and make the judge give Jonathan a jail sentence.
Despite siding with Jonathan, Amber had to abide by the law. She couldn’t let the man leave.
Jonathan was at a loss for words.
Amber fell into silence once again. Then, she asked, “I bet Yasmin still doesn’t know that you came to protect her, right?”
Jonathan was stunned for a second. He nodded shortly after and said, “Please don’t tell Yasmin about what happened between
Connor and me.” Amber gazed at him intently as he spoke.
She was undoubtedly an idealistic hopeless romantic. She had thought that someone like Jonathan only existed in books and
myths.
It was almost possible to find a man like him in reality.
Jonathan muttered, “Connor is dead, but Yasmin doesn’t know about it yet. If it weren’t because Cyclops bullied her, I wouldn’t
have made an appearance at all. I thought I would live peacefully for the rest of my life, but things happened unexpectedly.”
Amber took in a deep breath after listening to him. “Don’t worry. I won’t tell Yasmin about it. But, I’m worried that Leonardo might
still go after you after the failed mission.”

Jonathan replied, “I can’t think ahead anymore. I can only take one step at a time.” He wouldn’t tell Amber that he already had a
plan in mind. In fact, he was infuriated by Leonardo’s actions. His compromise had only led Leonardo to wish for his death.
Amber said again, “I feel sympathy for what you’ve gone through, and I want to help you. However, I can’t let you go yet, given
the situation. Please understand.”
Jonathan nodded in response. “It means a lot to me that you believe in me.”
Amber replied, “However, I’ll do my best to look for the evidence to prove your innocence.”
Jonathan was touched as he thanked her. “Thank you so much.”
Later, Amber let Jonathan return to the detention room. Someone had cleaned up the place and fixed the door.
Damian’s body had been sent to the morgue, waiting for the coroner to examine his wounds. The entire procedure went by
smoothly. Jonathan was only self-defending this time around. With Amber’s help, he wouldn’t be troubled by Damian’s death.
It was a dark and quiet night.
Jonathan lay on the bed in the detention room. As he had gotten used to many things, he wasn’t terrified even after someone
died in the room.
Jennifer, Polly, and Yasmin had no idea about everything that happened on that very night.
Meanwhile, in a residence at Jipsdale.
Though it was already one o’clock in the morning, the lights were still brightly lit inside the residence.
In a study on the second floor, a young man in a white shirt looked livid.
The white shirt that he was wearing was handmade in Ustrana. The tailoring was impeccable and gave off a luxurious feel.
The young man looked youthful. He had a handsome face like a comic character who stood below the blooming cherry blossom
tree. His good looks were somewhat surreal and didn’t make him look like a mortal.
Despite looking like an eighteen-year-old, the man was already in his thirties.
He was no one but Leonardo Young, the young master of Young Corporation.

At that moment, he was displeased after hearing the news earlier.
Thundro’s leg was untreatable. He would be crippled forever. In other words, Leonardo had lost two capable fighters overnight.
Of course, words about that incident would spread quickly. Everyone would know that the talented young master of Young
Corporation, who was also the leader of Strikezone Martial Arts, had failed to defeat a petty security guard. The reputation of
Strikezone Martial Arts would be tarnished for sure if the words got out.
People who had insider information would suspect that Jonathan wasn’t just a simple security guard. Those who believed in the
hearsay would think that all the disciples in Strikezone Martial Arts were useless.
It brought back the memory where two disciples of Mystic Clan of Mount Wallore got beaten up by two thugs. That incident had
caused a public uproar. All the civilians started making fun of the martial arts of Mount Wallore, saying that martial arts were
nothing but useless skills in the era of advanced technology.
However, Leonardo knew the truth. The two thugs were actually skillful martial artists that were in disguise to seek revenge on
the disciples of Mystic Clan.
After that incident, Mount Wallore no longer dared to promote the benefits of practicing martial arts anymore because nobody
would believe in them again.
They had lost their good names.
That was exactly the predicament Leonardo found himself in right now.
He would never be able to live a peaceful life if the reputation of Strikezone Martial Arts got tarnished like Mystic Clan. Edward
would be the first person to come after him if that happened.
Leonardo’s eyes flickered. He was coming up with some sinister plans again.
Just then, the sound of footsteps came from outside the door.
Leonardo’s hearing ability was terrific. He could tell who was coming by hearing the sound. A tinge of enthusiasm flashed across
his frigid cold eyes suddenly.
A woman walked into the room.

She was wearing a dark red gown with her hair tied up in a bun. Despite looking around twenty-eight years old, she was already
thirty-eight. Her face was beautiful and elegant. She was well-endowed with long legs, exuding a charisma that would drive any
man crazy in that gown.
Her entrance to the room brought in her scent.
She was Bianca Schmidt, Leonardo’s youngest aunt.
Bianca was holding a tray as she entered. There was a bowl of cold dessert on the tray.
“Leon.” She came beside Leonardo. Her red lips were full of seduction when she spoke. They looked like cherries gleaming
under the light, giving one an urge to have a taste of it.
