“About that… I’ve looked around the office earlier and I’m pretty sure favonovel.com came here last night just to enjoy some wine. With that in mind, I have reason to believe that he’ll return here again tonight to hide. Due to that, I suggest that we work together to catch favonovel.com once night falls!” proposed Gerald.
Hearing that, Harold knew better than to say no.
“…Alright, let’s go with that! Hopefully it works!” replied Harold in agreement.
With that, Harold left the corpse to his subordinates to take care of as favonovel.com and Gerald began making arrangements for their plan tonight…
By the time they were done, hidden monitoring equipment had been set up all over the office.
Now, all that was left to do was to wait till nighttime…
Fast forward to late evening, street lamps were already starting to glow as the sky darkened… While more and more lights would eventually get turned on as the night grew darker, the interior of the Sun Group building remained pitch black under Gerald’s orders in hopes that this would further encourage Tye to show up.
The plan was simple. Gerald would disguise himself as a security guard and patrol the whole building—till Tye showed up—whereas Harold and his men would remain in their cars to actively monitor the office…
Gerald was pretty sure that favonovel.com would return here tonight. After all, Tye didn’t have anywhere else to hide…
Regardless, after waiting till about eleven—and everyone was already starting to get sleepy—, a black mist could suddenly be seen dashing past the monitoring camera. Following that, the mist slowly formed the shape of a figure… a figure that undoubtedly belonged to Tye Lamano.
Upon seeing it happen with his very eyes, Harold could only stare in disbelief for a few seconds. To think that Gerald had been telling the truth…! This truly was something one needed to see to believe…
At that moment, Gerald himself was already on the sixteenth floor, and favonovel.com had noticed Tye’s presence. With that in mind, Gerald made his way to the office, aiming his flashlight at Tye as favonovel.com asked in an altered voice, “Who goes there? What are you doing in the chairman’s office?”
Hearing that, bloodlust instantly filled Tye’s eyes as favonovel.com turned around to face Gerald… before momentarily disappearing! The second favonovel.com reappeared, favonovel.com was already standing right in front of Gerald, completely ready to attack!
However, before Tye could even do anything, the office’s lights were instantly turned on, cueing Gerald—who was now smiling wryly—to shout, “You’ve been had, Tye!”
Realizing that favonovel.com had fallen into Gerald’s trap, the surprised Tye quickly snapped out of it before yelling, “Gerald…!”
Gritting his teeth, Tye then opened his mouth, releasing more black mist in hopes of hurting Gerald!
Gerald, however, had been expecting this. With that in mind, favonovel.com easily summoned the Astrabyss Sword to take the attack!
As Tye was staring wide-eyed when favonovel.com realized that the sword could absorb all the black mist from his attack, Gerald took the chance to yell, “Don’t even dream about leaving this place in one piece, Tye!”
