Chapter 1345 Motive
“You really think I wouldn’t notice? In fact, I was deliberately trying to confuse you.” Lana smiled smugly and pointed at Xavier. “You’ve missed out on something. Even though you’ve already tried your best to dress up as a Turlenese, you’ve forgotten something.”
“And pray tell what I forgot?” Xavier was intrigued.
“You have a tattoo there.” Lana pointed at a spot below Xavier’s neck. Although he tried to cover it with his shirt, she still spotted it.
“What’s so weird about having a tattoo? It’s not like I’m the only one here with a tattoo,” Xavier said nonchalantly. Throughout the half a month he had spent with Dillon, he had also seen a tattoo on him. Hence, he wasn’t fazed by the fact that Lana had seen it.
“You’re quite a stubborn bloke, aren’t you? Must you force me to say it out loud?” Lana was getting pissed at Xavier’s continuous denial. She scoffed and said, “Your tattoo is something different. It’s an eagle. That’s the symbol of the international detective ranking system.”
Xavier’s eyes flickered when he heard that. He didn’t expect someone to recognize it. So what? As long as I keep denying it, there’s nothing she can do. He scoffed and answered, “You’re quite good at talking crap, aren’t you?”
“I’m not talking crap!” Lana continued pridefully, “I’ve been to countless countries and seen all sorts of people. I’ve been told by a friend of mine about that tattoo of yours. He’s a detective as well, but he couldn’t make it into the ranking system. His lifelong wish is to make it there and have a tattoo like yours.”
In truth, Lana was a huge admirer of detectives. She was very fond of them because detectives were capable of solving all sorts of problems. She was getting upset because Xavier didn’t want to admit it.
Despite how she felt, a glint appeared in her eyes. She leaned toward Xavier’s ear and whispered, “Don’t deny it. You do know that the more you try to explain yourself, the more it’s incriminating you, right? No matter what you say, you can’t deny the fact that you’re a foreigner. Do you know what happened to all those foreigners that I’ve exposed in the past?”
