Scott looked at Cale, his voice low: "Perhaps you're already aware of the recent events in the capital of U country."Upon hearing this, Cale couldn't help but look at Scott with a hint of surprise, as if he didn't expect Scott to bring up the matter.Scott could see the surprise on his face, but he continued without paying much attention: "The world may be facing the threat of destruction by external forces through a broker organization called Call God. My visit this time is related to that."Cale looked at Scott, swallowing a bit before instinctively saying, "Are you going to be the savior?"Scott: "..." Honestly, he almost choked on his own saliva.But thinking back, if he could really save the world, then he would indeed be the savior, it's just a matter of whether he could do it or not.Scott didn't say anything, and Cale continued: "From the first time I saw you and received your help, I sensed greatness emanating from you! Indeed, I guessed right! Just tell me, if there's anythi
Scott and Ayer looked towards the person who had just spoken. It was a somewhat short man with a sycophantic demeanor.Scott looked at him and said, "That's right, who are you?"The man immediately smiled warmly and said, "I am the manager of the ProTrade headquarters in Country Y. Is there something you need, Mr. Scott?"Hearing this, Scott couldn't help but raise an eyebrow slightly. He said nothing, but Ayer behind him couldn't help but speak up, "ProTrade Group belongs to the chairman. Does he need to inform you about his visit?"Hearing Ayer's words, the manager quickly flashed a fawning smile and hastily said, "Yes, yes, you can come anytime you like. It was my oversight; I shouldn't have said that."Ayer frowned slightly at the manager's attitude, but before he could say anything further, Scott stopped him. Scott looked at Ayer for a moment, then back at the manager, and said, "Alright, take me to see the director."The manager immediately nodded and said, "Yes, please follow
Scott looked at him with deep eyes, then calmly continued, "Before Walter died, he left me some information. I hope you won’t do anything foolish."Hearing Scott say this, John's expression changed slightly but quickly returned to normal. He smiled and said, "I have always been loyal to ProTrade. How could I do anything foolish?"Scott looked at him, smiled slightly, and said softly, "That’s good to hear."With that, he left, not staying any longer. John stood there, watching Scott's back. But he quickly lowered his head again, as if he were just a loyal subordinate.Scott and Ayer left the headquarters in the capital of Country Y and returned to Cale’s mansion. Sitting in the car, Ayer couldn’t help but say, "It seems John knows a lot about Walter's affairs. Even though he tried to hide it, it was quite obvious."John’s lack of surprise at hearing about Walter’s death was a clear indication. His reaction was too slow and seemed deliberate. Scott looked at Ayer, nodded, and said, "
The guests gathered in groups, some discussing business opportunities, others seeking to forge future relationships. All attention suddenly focused on the entrance where John led a group towards them. Despite appearing diminutive among them, his followers, all prominent shareholders of ProTrade in Country Y and long-time business partners with the headquarters, trailed behind him, clearly acknowledging his current status.As John and his entourage approached, the guests' attention shifted towards them. One couldn't resist stepping forward with a smile, saying, "John, not surprised to see you here. Have you met your chairman yet?" John smiled in response, "He visited ProTrade headquarters to meet me on my first day in Country Y. We've certainly had our discussions."The person who spoke couldn't help but furrow their brow slightly. Did John mean he was the chairman, not Scott? Despite the slight ambiguity in John's words, many guests surrounded him. After all, Scott operated in Co
He couldn't help but sneer slightly and look towards the shareholder, saying, "Is there a problem?"The shareholder seemed slightly surprised by Scott's coldness, but having read much about Scott, knowing him to be someone who disliked frivolity and approached work with great professionalism, quickly replied with a smile, "No, nothing at all. I just wanted to introduce myself and express my desire to learn more about your innovations. It would be great if I could work at the headquarters you oversee in Country U!"Scott furrowed his brow slightly upon hearing this; it was as if the shareholder was self-nominating to move to Country U. John, noticing this from afar, saw other shareholders beginning to engage Scott in conversation, which left him feeling dissatisfied.These people clearly didn't know their place; they wanted to abandon him at the Y headquarters and join Scott in Country U. He didn't feel that they were genuinely interested in technology; they simply thought Scott was s
Scott heard that and glanced towards Cale for a moment, shaking his head, "No, I'm no longer interested in him. It's just that there are some unusual things about him that may be related to my current trip."Upon hearing this, Cale quickly became serious, saying, "Should I detain him for you?"Scott shook his head, "No need, I'll investigate this myself."Cale nodded without further comment, and the two continued their conversation, seemingly without anything unusual happening around them.Scott remained seated, his gaze still fixed on Curtis, while observing those around him.Curtis seemed to have noticed Scott's gaze, appearing slightly nervous at first, but quickly composed himself and smiled charmingly at the person he was talking to.Scott could sense a strange energy emanating from Curtis, as if he could effortlessly attract anyone, regardless of gender, which in itself was unusual. As he observed Curtis and those around him, Scott caught glimpses of two figures behaving oddly, d
Scott chuckled at that, saying, "I told you, no one can hear us. Were you two planning to keep up the act forever, Lucifer, Albert?"Upon hearing Scott speak like that, the twin brothers' faces showed surprise, then they simultaneously rolled their eyes, looking somewhat resigned, finally accepting the truth. Immediately, all signs of nervousness vanished from their faces."How did you figure that out?" one of them spoke up; it was Albert.Scott shrugged. "It's quite simple, really. Your performances were rather transparent to me."Albert and Lucifer couldn't help but look a bit embarrassed, saying nothing further.But soon enough, Lucifer brightened up and asked, "Alright, so why did you summon us here?"Scott didn't beat around the bush. "I just want to know why the two of you are interested in Curtis. He's your target?"Albert and Lucifer remained silent for a moment. Then Lucifer furrowed his brow slightly before speaking, "Yes, he's our mission target. There have been some strang
Emily, upon hearing that, had no further comments. After all, the team leader was Lucifer, and her curiosity couldn't change anything.Ayer and Scott got into the car, and Lucifer slowly spoke: "We've been investigating for a few days. Based on the information we currently have, it seems that Curtis is following a big fan named Julia. Julia has been a fan of Curtis since the beginning, she really admires and adores him."Pausing for a moment, Lucifer continued: "Tonight she has a date with Curtis."Hearing this, Scott raised an eyebrow and said, "An idol dating a fan?"Albert, sitting next to him, nodded and said hesitantly, "Don't you know? Most fans love this. Being asked out by someone they admire, how could they refuse?"Scott didn't express any further opinion, and Lucifer added, "So, Julia could be the next target. Our current task is to prevent this and investigate further to determine if Curtis is responsible for the recent strange deaths."In fact, if they had started investig
