Falco had a vicious expression on his face after he hung up the phone.
He really would not have expected that the old b* stard, Carvalho, would actually dare to negotiate terms with him.
Just as he was feeling a little resentful in his heart, he suddenly felt something writhing around in his pocket. Falco hurriedly reached out his hand as he took out his native parasitic worm from his pocket. 1
After the fat white worm came out of his pocket, it began twisting its body as it made squeaking sounds, almost as though it was protesting out of extreme dissatisfaction.
Falco stroked it gently as he comforted it and said," Don't be anxious. I know that you're not full from your last meal. Don’t worry. I've already prepared two meals for you tonight, and I’ll certainly make sure that you have a good meal!”
What was rather interesting was the fact that the fat and white worm seemed to be able to understand
Falco's words. 2
After Falco had said that he would make sure that it'd have a good meal, it stopped protesting immediately and began rolling around in Falco's palm.
Falco had a wicked smile on his face at this time as he muttered to himself, "Carvalho Mason, since you do not know what is good for yourself, don’t blame me for being merciless! This very day next year will be the anniversary of your death. I'll feed both your great-grandson and your brains to my precious tonight!" 4
Meanwhile, after Carvalho had hung up the phone, he looked at Charlie, who was beside him, and said honestly, "Young Master Wade, I’ve already done everything that you've asked of me..."
Charlie nodded slightly and said indifferently, "In that case, I'll have to trouble you to come to Mount Phoenix Cemetery with me tonight.”
Carvalho instantly had a horrified look on his face as h e blurted out, "Young Master Wade, didn't you say that I only needed to help you arrange for an appointment with Falco Xanthos? Why are you asking me to go there with you now?!"
Charlie said, "Mount Phoenix Cemetery is very huge. If you do not show up, Falco Xanthos will certainly refuse to reveal himself. If he notices anything unusual and decides to run away, he will immediately guess that you've betrayed him. Do you think that he’ll let you off, then?"
The expression on Carvalho's face instantly became very ugly.
Albert, who was driving a taxi, had already parked at the side of the road outside the entrance of Thompson First.
At this time, the words 'out of service' were displayed a t the front of the taxi. 2
Albert had already been waiting there for a long time. When he saw Charlie coming out, he hurriedly got out of the taxi and said respectfully, "Young Master Wade, you're here."
Charlie nodded, and he pointed at the taxi before he asked Albert, "Are there any problems with this car?"
Albert hurriedly said, "This is a standard operating taxi. The car license plate and relevant documents are all genuine. You can rest assured."
Charlie nodded in satisfaction and said, "Alright, then.
You did a pretty good job. Give me the car key." 6
