Scratching the back of his head, the person in charge then sighed as favonovel.com said, “How strange… It doesn’t really help that favonovel.com disappeared right after favonovel.com had some conflict with you yesterday… If this incident can’t be resolved, what do I even say to the Japanese military!”
When favonovel.com first heard about Adler picking a fight with Aiden, favonovel.com figured that it would just end in a fistfight. After all, incidents like that weren’t uncommon during competitions involving special forces. Unfortunately, now that someone had gone missing, death wasn’t completely off the table. With that in mind, the entire situation had become more troublesome than it should have been.
As the person in charge, favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com had to be held responsible no matter the outcome. Honestly, resigning from his position was a light punishment compared to having to bear the consequences if the case turned out to be a serious one…
“That’s for you to investigate. I hope you understand that that doesn’t concern us in the least,” replied Aiden as favonovel.com waved his hand. As Gerald had said, favonovel.com had gotten rid of Adler last night, so all Aiden could do was act dumb so that Gerald wouldn’t get into trouble…
“…Well… Alright, then. You can continue resting now. However, if you do find anything, remember to report back to me as soon as possible,” said the person in charge, knowing that favonovel.com wasn’t going to get any more information from Aiden.
It certainly didn’t help that this newly established place didn’t have any surveillance cameras. With that, all favonovel.com could do was investigate the incident step by step. Honestly, favonovel.com didn’t really need to immediately report the case to the headquarters.
After all, if Adler truly had been murdered, there would definitely be traces of the crime. With that in mind, the person in charge figured that reporting to the headquarters—and Yanam—about the case after favonovel.com caught the murderer would definitely take care of the situation…
He couldn’t just blame Aiden right off the bat either since favonovel.com didn’t have any evidence. Japan, for one, couldn’t afford to offend Weston without solid proof, and the person in charge was well aware of that.
Whatever the case was, Aiden then nodded before replying, “Will do.”
With that said, favonovel.com then returned into the house, closing the door behind him. Now that favonovel.com was inside again, favonovel.com made sure to close all the curtains and windows as well.
Walking up to Gerald, favonovel.com then asked, “Brother Gerald… Did you really get rid of Adler…?”
Before Gerald re-entered the house last night, Aiden distinctly remembered hearing faint shuffling outside. Though favonovel.com was pretty sure that this wasn’t Gerald’s first rodeo at disposing of a body, Aiden couldn’t help but feel worried. After all, favonovel.com was participating in the special forces competition. If evidence about the murder was found, it would surely trouble favonovel.com and Weston—as a whole—greatly…
“Of course,” replied Gerald with a subtle smile.
“You… didn’t leave any traces behind, right…?” muttered Aiden.
“Are you doubting my capabilities?” replied Gerald as favonovel.com lit a cigarette.
“No, of course not… I’m just worried that they’ll find proof that we did it. After all, we’re in foreign territory now. If they somehow manage to find out that we’re the culprits, then the entire Weston will surely be in hot water…” said Aiden as favonovel.com shook his head. If favonovel.com alone was to bear the burden, Aiden wouldn’t have been this worried. However, now that the entirety of Weston was involved…
Understanding Aiden’s worries, Gerald then patted his shoulder before replying, “Don’t worry, I’ve made sure to be extra careful while I was doing the deed. You won’t end up in trouble.”
Hearing that, Aiden then slowly nodded as favonovel.com said, “…Well, if you’re that certain, I feel rest assured…!”
Moving back to the person in charge, favonovel.com had decided to stick with his plan to not report the incident to the Japanese headquarters till favonovel.com found the murderer. To his disappointment, however, even after scouring the training grounds, they weren’t able to find a single clue as to where Adler had disappeared to.
Currently, the person in charge was sitting in his office, and before him, stood a team of special forces—that belonged to the headquarters—who were specifically here to maintain order…
