The first thing David did when he got home was to check the information on the tracked vehicle.

When he opened the information sent by Officer Bob, David couldn’t help but thank him for his effort. He felt that Officer Bob was very reliable.

The information displayed on David’s identity bracelet included the owner, the manufacturing year, the purchase history, and even the repairs done on the vehicle, as well as the traffic violations committed within the last two years.

It was also followed by information about the driver of the car and the stalker today, including his photo, name, address, employment information, and so on.

However, most of the information was of little help to David, since it was actually illegal. David was not part of the police system and in terms of social authority, he was underage, which was equivalent to nothing. Also, information regarding the privacy of citizens was absolutely prohibited from being known to non-officials.

Still, David definitely owed Officer Bob a favor, now that he had given up confidential information to David.

As a civil servant who had worked for twenty years in the police system, Officer Bob knew how to maximize his benefits. The same went for favors.

The owner of the vehicle that had been tailgating him was the same man as the stalker. His name was Amos, the head of security at the Strat Hotel.

“The Strat Hotel!” David mumbled under his breath.

That hotel was rather famous in Pelan City, one of the best ones there too.

Those who were able to open a hotel in Pelan City were not simple people. To keep the hotel running, one would need a massive amount of ingredients, among which were the strengthened meat of bugs and some parts of the beasts that were edible. They were necessary raw materials for a large-scale hotel.

Obtaining them would require strong connections with forces that were permitted to go out to hunt, and one of the members of those forces had to be an official armorer. In fact, hunters were present in many hotels. They formed the potential foundation of the hotels. Hence, very few people dared to underestimate the owners of hotels.

Why had Amos, the head of security at the Strat Hotel, decided to tail him? Could it be that someone from the Strat Hotel was among those who wanted to harm him?

The more David thought about it, the more worried he became. A few days ago, he was just an ordinary man. Yet, not only was he in this dangerous world now, but he was also facing unknown dangers and the threat of being murdered.

However, he quickly suppressed his qualms and worries.

“I want to survive in this world!” he exclaimed, declaring the first goal he made since arriving here.

After arriving in this world, the privileged conditions that David’s predecessor enjoyed made him feel elated. He lived in an independent villa-style residence, owned a nice car, had a stable income, and had family members who cared about him, all of which gave him the desire to continue living.

Even after learning about the abilities of the Shadow Servant, he still only had one thought in mind: saving himself.

At that time, he had thought that Trainer Jeremy was the only one who wanted to harm him and that he could just stay away from him.

Now that an unknown enemy had emerged, there was a greater sense of urgency, forcing him to develop his own goal, which was to become strong enough to protect himself.

David opened the other file that Officer Bob had sent him, this one regarding the mercenary Abbott. He discovered that the file containing Abbott’s information was a crime compendium.

Abbott belonged to the Sky Wolf Mercenary Corps, who not only carried out mercenary missions but also made guest appearances as robbers from time to time. Among the Sky Wolf Mercenary Corps, Abbott was the member who had killed the most people.

Not long ago, the Sky Wolf Mercenary Corps hijacked and robbed a Star Cruise ship. During the process, Abbott killed a number of guests who resisted handing over their assets.

Among those victims were two bodyguards and the collateral relative of the protected Decker Consortium sidekick. That was the reason for the huge reward.

David also read the content regarding Abbott’s strength, which concerned him the most. He learned that Abbott was an excellent Sniper Armorer, and his competency in sniping could not be undermined by his ruthless and murderous traits.

That would explain the origin of the Sniper (20% Intermediate) Knowledge Orb, which came after Abbott’s death.
