Chapter 2495
Preston understood the situation immediately. "So that's the case. I thought you could predict the future."
Hearing Preston's mocking tone, Nicole could not help but laugh. "How's the investigation going?"
"I've looked into the suspicious traces found previously.
Some of it was truly done out of curiosity, but there was one that seems questionable. And we've managed to track down that address," Preston explained briefly.
"Have you identified the person?" asked Nicole, eyes narrowed.
"Gary's looking into it. At the moment, we haven't identified the actual person yet, but I'm sure he or she is in San Joto." Preston's voice lowered a little as he said, "In fact, that person might be someone close to us. Someone who's involved in our lives."
"You're saying there's a high chance that it's someone we know?" Nicole's heart felt heavy. Could it really be someone they know?
"Oh, one more thing. Someone accepted your task. That person has contacted us, and we've checked them.
Although we're not sure of the person's actual identity, he seems to be capable." Preston added.
"Does he know where the Fire Crest is?" Nicole's voice turned anxious.
"No, he mentioned that he only knows where the other four Crests are. As for the Fire Crest..." After a pause, Preston sounded helpless as he said, "He said that it's with you."
Everyone knew about this, but not many knew that Nicole had lost the Fire Crest.
"Then, you can ask him about the four other Crests. As for the money, you can decide with him." Nicole lightly shook her head. The one which she was most concerned with, was the Fire Crest. After all, the rest of the Crests had nothing to do with her.
But since the person could reveal the whereabouts of the other Crests, it would not be a harm for her to have that knowledge.
"Alright, I got it," Preston replied.
