At dusk, in the lounge of the training ground of the London Military, Chester is reading a newspaper.
"Is there any news about Lone Wolf?”
"Nothing has happened in the past two days. Since the last time the Eagles destroyed a few drug-trafficking dens, London has been very peaceful these days, and I am afraid that there is no clue we could find for the time being."
Chester agrees, "If there is more news, you tell the lone wolf to ensure his safety and hide well. This is a long-term battle. Don't rush for a while."
"Yes." Clement nods.
Chester's gaze returns to the newspaper, falling on the missing person notice in the corner of the newspaper--
"On January 15th, an accidental fire broke out in a villa on the top of Hull Mountain. Two people died and one person is missing. It is reported that the missing person is Sherry Green, the daughter of the Green Group, and his fiance, Leo, offers a huge reward in exchange for her whereabouts. Now people call the door and claim to have clues. The number is too large. After interviews, none of the people who came to provide clues got the reward..."
Leo offers a heavy reward for finding the missing fiancee, which is now a joke in London City. It is not surprising that the news media will use the follow-up of this incident to fill the page every now and then.
But Chester's eyes fall on the big characters of the dates 'January 15'.
"Clement, you said that she is beaten and almost kills one time in prison. Is it the 15th?"
Clement thinks for a while and nods.
Chester slowly grabs the edge of the newspaper, thinking of the details: the same date, sudden change of personality, hostility towards Leo, disdain for his own family, ingenuity and knowledge...
"Clement, you go to the Institute of Human Sciences these two days to see if Professor Jacob is back. I have something to talk to him."
"Yes."
Things are strange. There is an unscientific or even anti-scientific guess in his mind. Although he thought it is absurd, he doesn’t know what is happening. He feels that there is a certain possibility.
After Rose informs Hannah to participate as the representative of Shahbaz Jewelry, two days later, the list of the top 36 candidates for the emerging designer competition is announced on the official website. From the first day of the announcement, the name “Gordan” causes an uproar in the circle.
"How can he participate in the competition if he is a copycat?"
"What qualifications does Gordan have to participate in."
"Gordan rolls out the cutting-edge designer contest..."
"The ' IM ' is where you come pheasant jewellery design business, I have never heard of it."
"..."
Despite the complaints, Gordan uses the formal process to participate in the contest on behalf of “IM”. The main committee of the contest does not have the power to let him withdraw from the competition. However, seeing that the swear on the Internet becomes more and more severe, Hannah is still worried. After work in the afternoon, she goes to the studio which is still under renovation.
"This can't go from here, I said in the morning, please disassemble it and reinstall it."
"..."
Gordan is dressed in cement-grey overalls, covered with dust on his nose, loudly directing the workers to make progress amid the noise of electric drills, without being disturbed by the incident.
Seeing Hannah coming, he urges Vanessa to walk out hurriedly, patting the dust all over his body at the door, which chokes Hannah so much that she retreats to the door as well.
