Chapter 899: Chapter 899: Criminal Hiding Deep in the Mountains...
At that time, Wilmer’s wife was only 22 years old, and together with her died in the accident were the unborn twin children in her belly.
After Wilmer’s wife tragically died, the drunk driver who hit her faced legal consequences and was sentenced to ten years in prison.
Soon after, this driver served seven years in prison and was released early for good behavior.
Yet during those seven years, Wilmer’s mother passed away, leaving Wilmer alone and helpless, missing his mother, his wife, and the unborn twins...
But just on the first day this driver was released, he was targeted by Wilmer.
Half a month later, this driver and his family, all five members, were brutally murdered by Wilmer and then cruelly dismembered...
As Mark reviewed all of Wilmer’s files to understand his details and mindset, Silas also checked all the surveillance on the main roads of G City, dividing the regions where Wilmer might show up.
After dividing the regions, Silas immediately handed the information over to Mark.
Mark studied it for a long time and marked out a desolate mountain in the area, immediately leading a team there to search it.
After conducting a three-day-and-night search over the entire desolate mountain, Mark and his team found no trace of Wilmer.
Suspicious, Mark furrowed his brow, feeling he had overlooked something important.
Silas stepped forward and asked, "Boss, did we search the wrong place?"
Then Silas analyzed the situation, muttering, "This place is deserted; while it’s good for escape, you can easily hunt for food here, but it’s not good for hiding..."
"He’s definitely here!" Mark spoke decisively, "He’s on the run now, and he has a hostage; he won’t appear in populated areas."
After saying that, Mark looked at Silas and commanded, "Go find local residents and ask who knows the terrain, whether there are hidden caves or such places here."
"Yes!" Silas took on the task and turned to leave.
After Silas left, Mark and the others didn’t idle either.
He continued searching the desolate mountain and once searched very close to Wilmer’s hiding cave...
The arrival of Mark and a group of special forces, and their search across the desolate mountain, naturally alerted Wilmer.
However, Wilmer didn’t regard these people seriously.
In Wilmer’s view, Mark and the others finding the desolate mountain was purely coincidental; capturing him was purely fantastical.
Of course, very soon, Wilmer was caught off guard by his own confidence.
Because several hours later, in the familiar desolate mountain, Mark appeared alone in front of Wilmer.
At that moment, too late to escape, and unwilling to flee, Wilmer was holding hostage the nearly broken female officer, standing calmly within the cave.
Looking at Mark standing at the cave entrance, Wilmer calmly asked, "Did you find me?"
Mark pointed at Wilmer with his gun, firmly responding, "Yes."
Wilmer was curious, "How did you know I’d be here?"
Mark put away his gun, his cold eyes fixed on Wilmer, speaking coolly, "Because I understand you."
"Understand me?" Wilmer seemed to hear a colossal joke, looking at Mark and laughing madly, "Haha..."
The laughter was so intense that the female officer being held painfully furrowed her brow, and the scarcely flowing blood from her trembled...
Mark wanted to rescue the female officer from Wilmer’s grasp but he knew the timing wasn’t right.
If he acted now, although he could capture Wilmer with certainty, the female officer would face certain death.
Mark said nothing, just coldly watched Wilmer.
He was waiting, waiting for Wilmer to finish laughing, waiting for an opportunity—a chance to successfully save the female officer.
In Mark’s wait, Wilmer who was madly laughing finally had his fill.
His dark eyes gazed at Mark with disdain, coldly, casually saying, "Since you say you understand me, go ahead and show me."
Mark looked at Wilmer, speaking slowly, "I know you’re very lonely, and that you once loved this world dearly, had a warm family, and tried to change the world."
Wilmer’s eyes flickered, showing a glint of interest within.
Mark regarded Wilmer and continued, "It’s just that you didn’t succeed; you found yourself powerless, unable to change the world at all."
"Carrying a heart unable to change the world, yet wanting to destroy it, you slowly changed under the reality’s pressure..."
Mark’s cold eyes watched Wilmer, suddenly raising his voice, "Because you want revenge, you turned into a complete, even disgusting freak!"
Wilmer laughed, "Tell me, what all do you know?"
"I learned about a story, an incredible story." Saying this, Mark watched Wilmer, slowly narrating the story he surmised.
"There’s a little boy, his mother conceived him before marriage and then married a low-life drifting through dance halls."
"At first, this low-life treated the little boy and his mother well, but later started drinking heavily."
"The drunk low-life began hitting the boy’s mother, hitting the boy... Even assaulting his mother in front of him... and even assaulted the boy..."
"The boy’s mother endured silently, but when the low-life extended his fiendish hands to the boy, she could no longer endure... She killed the low-life, disguising it as a perfect accident..."
"After that, because of the incident with the low-life, the boy’s mother didn’t marry again, raising him alone."
"The boy grew up and joined the army, standing out among his peers. He wanted to rise above, more so wanted to change his and his mother’s life."
"But the boy overlooked—the demon born within him when he was ten followed him as he grew."
"The child’s unfortunate past, combined with the cruel adversity in youth; he resented everyone in the world."
"A demon lived in his heart, violent and bloodthirsty... Though he tried to suppress it, he couldn’t control shooting dead a surrendered drug dealer, directly causing his teammates’ deaths..."
