Chapter 584: The speech
Jayden was on the third floor he looked down and soon saw a middle aged woman running behind a man with his face covered, who was running away from her while holding a purse in his hands.
” Someone please c- catch him, he have haa haa my purse helppp ” the middle aged woman kept screaming, but no one around was coming to help her.
*BOOM*
After listening to her words Jayden directly jumped from the third floor, with a loud sound he landed on the ground scaring all the people walking around they wondered what had fallen from top all of a sudden.
But when they looked there was no one but only a hole in the ground and nothing was above in the building, Jayden suddenly flashed behind the thief and while he was busy in running, a hand grasped his shirt and raised his body high.
” Huh? What the fuck- Let go of me, damnit what are you doing? ” The thief struggled to get away from Jayden, but no matter how much he tried to move he failed each time.
The woman was finally able to catch up after a few seconds she snatched her purse from the thief’s hands then she thanked Jayden and began to take her phone out of the purse to call the police.
Leaving his shirt in Jayden’s hand, the thief ran away and since the woman got her purse back she didn’t try to chase him, after she got a proper look at Jayden appearance the woman was surprised even though he was just wearing casual clothes, a white t shirt and a blue pants, but he still looked very charming.
” E- Excuse, are you married? ” The middle aged woman asked, she couldn’t help but keep staring at his face.
Jayden looked at her in confusion with his head slightly tilted, he thought for a few seconds then answered: ” I have a wife. ”
” Oh!! that’s… too bad, anyway thanks you so much for helping me, I hope we meet again in the future. ”
After saying that she walked away while glancing back at Jayden, who stood there still holding the shirt, after looking around for a few seconds he released the shirt and then began to walk around aimlessly.
This was the backstreet area, so there were a lot of such criminals lurking around, while walking Jayden saw a man who was getting robbed by a group of men who were holding knives, he stopped to see them.
” Oye, What are you looking at? Get out of here, if you want to live. ” One of the gangster spoke after glancing at Jayden they didn’t try to rob him since despite looking rich by looks but by his appearance he didn’t seem like one.
The man who was getting robbed finally found hope after seeing Jayden but just as he was about to ask for help, Jayden simply walked away without even glancing back.
Jayden walked by many steets and after a while he saw a rally walking by, the people walking in the crowd were holding big banners and kept shouting something, they were wearing white shirts and blue pants.
While they were walking one of the man looked towards Jayden and after seeing his clothes he misunderstood that Jayden was a part of their rally too, since their dress code was quite similar to it and called out to him.
” Come, what are you doing there? We are about to reach the last point. ” Jayden looked at him, and simply began to walk behind him, they walked for a few minutes and soon arrived in front of a big stage, where a couple of men were already standing in front of mics.
The man whom Jayden was following walked onto the stage and just behind him, Jayden climbed onto the stage too he stood there along with three other men.
” Now, let me welcome our brother in arm who had worked the hardest among all of us, Daniel, the one who had been supporting us from the begining. ”
After those words everyone in the crowd cheered and clapped, as Daniel the man whom Jayden had followed, stepped in front of the mic then he began to give a speech in front of them, his words brought motivation to them all as everyone roared in excitement.
After his speech ended, Daniel was about to walk off the stage but then his eyes landed on Jayden, he thought that this man must also have something to say so he spoke:
” Come here, say whatever you want to. ”
Jayden looked at him in confusion, but he walked in front of the mic without knowing what to do, he just kept looking over the crowd.
” Don’t be nervous, speak whatever is on your mind. ”
Jayden didn’t know what to say, his eyes moved over them all then his gaze focussed on a kid sitting around a couple hundred metres away from him, who was watching something in his mobile, while listening to it Jayden decided to speak the same words.
” Why are we still here? Just to suffer? Every night, I can feel my leg, my arm, even my fingers… The body I’ve lost, the comrades I’ve lost… won’t stop hurting. It’s like they’re all still there. You feel it too, don’t you?”
When Jayden began to speak, everyone quieted down they all listened to his words carefully.
” A man provides. And he does it even when he’s not appreciated, or respected, or even loved. He simply bears up and he does it. Because he’s a man. ”
” I am not asking you to raise weapons and abandon your families, your house but give me a chance and I’ll make sure that you also have a life we have all dreamed of, and to do that we just need to… ”
He stayed silent for a moment and then added: ” To be continued. ”
Everyone remained silent for a while, then someone in the crowd shouted and they all began to cheer much more loudly than earlier, on the other side Daniel stood in complete confusion he couldn’t understand what had just happened.
” Aren’t we rallying just to remove the ban from an app, what does he mean by taking weapons and all that. ” Daniel mumbled to himself, and just then a commotion broke out among the crowd as someone shouted:
” Run, the police is here to capture us. ” Then they all began to run away, Jayden was still standing in front of the mic, when Daniel saw this he told Jayden to get away from their immediately as he himself ran away.
After looking around at them all, Jayden casually walked away from there, now he remembered about Hecate’s words but he didn’t remember the way to go back to that hotel, so he began to walk around while searching for Hecate.
While Jayden was walking by an alley he saw some men walking into a portal and disappearing inside it, it seemed these people had hidden the portal by a protective layer and normal people were not able to see them or the portal.
