Into His Room
Samuel shook his head.
He had not told anyone that he was going to Tamont City. Even if Lucille wanted to follow him, she would not be able to find out where he was.
Samuel retracted his gaze and went into his room while surrounded by his subordinates. He then instructed, “Lone Shadow is currently in Tamont City. We must find him before anyone else does. Inform me immediately if there’s any news.”
“Yes, sir!”
His men nodded respectfully and then left the hotel to investigate all around the city.
At the same time…
Lucille got into the car, fastened her seat belt, and casually remarked, “We should probably stay in a different hotel after we get back.”
Benjamin joked, “Lucille, are you not satisfied with the hotel, or is it the person staying next door who you’re not satisfied with?”
Obviously, he knew everything about Samuel, even though it was his first time seeing him.
Lucille’s face was expressionless. “You sly fox. You know too much. That might get you in trouble.”
Benjamin laughed and immediately pretended to surrender. “Sorry, sorry.”
He started the car.
The modified off–road vehicle sped into the night.
While driving on the mountain road, the car sped up like an arrow being shot.
They were going fast enough to make their blood flow backward, and most people would have begun screaming.
7/3
Lucille, on the other hand, was absent–minded throughout the entire journey. She even felt a little sleepy.
20 minutes later, the car slowed down.
Amidst the quiet suburbs, a brightly lit villa stood in the wilderness. It was
like
glorious and magnificent, like an enormous palace. Even from a distance, one could see everything clearly. There were sentry posts and guards on the inside and outside.
Every five steps, there was a guard standing watch, and each of them was equipped with a communication device. Once they noticed anything abrupt or suspicious, they could transmit the information immediately.
Benjamin clicked his tongue. “Wow. Clement really spent a lot of money.”
Although he said that, there was not a trace of fear on his face. On the contrary, there was a kind of eager light in his eyes.
Lucille said, “Stop the car here. I’ll sneak in.”
Hearing this, Benjamin immediately understood Lucille’s intentions.
Sneak in, she said.
How exactly was she going to sneak in?
Obviously, she was going to take advantage of the chaos.
He guessed that Clement was going to die of anger. In order to stop Lone Shadow, Clement had hired at least a few hundred guards to guard his villa. However, there ended up being too many guards, which gave her an opportunity.
Benjamin stopped the car and parked it in the grassy wilderness.
There was no light there. It was dark and covered by weeds. Moreover, it was far away from the villa, so it wouldn’t be easy for someone to notice the car.
Lucille stuffed a miniature communication device into her ear and threw the other one to Benjamin. She had not brought any weapons in self- defense. She got out of the car and muttered, “Let’s go.”
