Selena comforted the girl on the phone, hung up, stood still for a moment, stabilized her emotions, and was about to go back to find Osvaldo when her phone vibrated again.
Selena looked at the number and answered, "What's up, Margot?"
"Selena, I found out," Margot said.
Selena was surprised, "So fast?"
"It's from that bastard," Margot said unhappily, "and lately, there have been a lot of orders targeting Creephia, mostly from some aristocratic families in H Country capital, and a small portion from unknown origins that he couldn't trace. He's not good enough..."
Selena's eyes grew cold.
She had indeed implicated Osvaldo, and then she heard Margot say with some confusion, "But there was no employer this time. The other party found him, and it seems to be for a secret weapon... But what kind of secret weapon is worth the other party giving up morality and sending so many people to snatch it?"
Selena's eyes suddenly narrowed, and she immediately thought of the Sacred Pearl.
The other party failed to assassinate Osvaldo last time and left the Sacred Pearl here, which meant they wanted to snatch it back.
Selena's eyes grew gloomy, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
It was her thing.
She had given it to Osvaldo.
And now someone was trying to take it away? They were asking for death!
"Margot, he's my boyfriend. Don't touch him. Whoever touches him, I'll kill them!" Selena said.
Margot was stunned for a moment, then excitedly screamed as if she had discovered a new continent, "Oh my god, Selena, you have a boyfriend? What does he do? Is he rich? Is he handsome?"
Selena proudly introduced him, "He sells clothes and diamonds, and he's handsome. He's a gentle gentleman, with a perfect appearance and a family fortune that he can't spend out..."
"Wow!" Margot was happy for her friend, "You only like the best, and since he's your boyfriend, I won't take his money. If someone places an order again, I'll help you blacken them!"
Selena was relieved and turned around to leave, "Thank you, Margot."
The sound of typing on a keyboard came from her ear, "Oh, Selena, I just took an order."
Selena asked casually, "From whom?"
"That big shot in the police and fire department," Margot said.
Selena's footsteps, which were about to leave, suddenly stopped, "Who did you say?"
Margot was excited, "You know, that guy who's been at the top of the wanted list for years. I overheard that the reason no one has been able to take him down all these years is because that bastard has been acting as his mole. If I kill him, that bastard will definitely not want to educate me again..."
Selena's expression grew solemn, "This person is too dangerous!"
The expert in the police and fire industry, whose bounty amount exceeded one billion ten years ago, has now risen to a terrifying figure.
The opponent rose to fame in a short three years, expanding their influence from H Country to the other side of the Pacific. They were the only ones to dominate the police and fire industry in Asia, and no one else could even get a piece of the pie.
And the only four words that could describe the process of their expansion were "massive bloodshed."
The person's means of rising to power were extremely brutal and bloody. Even at that time, when she was still young and trapped at home due to illness, she had heard about the commotion caused by the person's actions.
Moreover, if we really have to count it, there is still an unclear debt between her and the other party.
Selena's lips curved into a slightly broken smile, and her voice lowered, "Margot, are you sure he's in H Country?"
"That bastard said so, it can't be wrong," Margot said eagerly, with a tinge of regret. "It's just that when the cat raised by that bastard suddenly rushed out, they were alarmed. I didn't hear the specific information of the other party, otherwise, I would have gone to kill them immediately with a knife..."
Upon hearing Margot's eager voice, Selena thought for a moment and said, "You can try, but if it's too dangerous, stop immediately."
She also wanted to explore the depth of the fearsome expert in the police and fire industry.
