Chapter 1126
Claus went on to order his men to deal with the guards, after which he drove Conrad Calhoun to the city.
"Mr.Johnston, Conrad has been found. We are on our way back,"
Claus reported back to Jared over the phone.
"Arrange them a place across from where the doctor is," Jared said.
"That way it'll be easier to take care of them."
"Yes, sir."
Jared did not wish to show up in person this time round, because Conrad would recognize him. If he were perform the interrogation himself, Conrad would most likely resist.
At this point, he would have to leave it to someone that Conrad was not familiar with.
"Claus, I need all hands on deck to guard all the routes entering the city," Jared instructed, having waited for several days to capture the goon.
"If you come across a man with a pentagram tattoo, round him up at once. We might be close to close the case soon enough." As this was happening, the tattooed man was making a call to Henry Johnston. "Mr.Johnston, the person has been transferred. You can rest easy, knowing this." "Okay, come back right away, and let's deal with the old man," Henry said.
"Yes, I'm on my way back now," the tattooed man replied.
"I'll be here in the evening."
"Alright, keep an eye out and see if there is anyone following you," Henry warned. "Very well."
The tattooed guy hung up and looked outside, where he saw nothing unusual.
"Hurry up and try to return to the city at night.I don't want to stay overnight in the wilderness."
"Okay."
Meanwhile, Kelly, who was looking at Nicole, asked, "Miss Riddle, where are we going?"
"I'll send you home first," Nicole replied.
"Don't worry about me," Kelly smiled.
"If there's nothing else going on, I can always take the cab home myself. You can drop me off here."
How can I ever let Nicole send me home?' Kelly thought.
"It's fine."
Nicole shot her a glance.
"I can send you home. We're heading in the same direction anyway."
"Okay, why don't you let me know the list of things you need me to prepare later?" Kelly asked.
"List? I think you've misunderstood. It's not a list for me, but a list for you. There are supplies and equipment that you'd need to prepare for yourself."
Nicole stated, amused by what Kelly had just said.
"Oh, I misunderstood,"
Kelly fumbled.
"How many days are we going to be there again?"
"Tentatively, a week."
"Alright."
"This is where my home is. Would you like to come in and have a seat, Miss Riddle?" Kelly invited.
"No, I'll pass, but I'll be sure to come in next time,"
Nicole declined.
"Bye now."
"
Nicole floored her pedal after Kelly had left, and made her way to the Sea View Villa. She had not returned for several days now, and she missed her grandmother very much.
"I'm back!"
Nicole walked into the villa and called out.
At that instant, Tia Rose ran out upon hearing that voice and gave Nicole a big hug.
"I've missed you so much, Nicole. Where have you been these days?"
