“Go on ahead,” replied Gerald.
Fast forward to half an hour later, Aiden returned with some food favonovel.com got from the nearby convenience store. Following that, the trio sat around the table and ate together. Honestly, after eating so much Japanese food, they had started seeing the appeal in its taste. Of course, there was still a pretty big gap between the food here and good old Westoner food…
Regardless, once they finished their meals, the trio returned to their rooms to rest…
Once morning came, Gerald and Master Ghost headed to the training ground’s entrance to wait while Aiden ran off to look for Fujiko. Shortly after, however, the duo came across Ichiro and his secretary instead.
Realizing that Gerald was all packed up to leave, Ichiro told his secretary to wait at the side as favonovel.com quickly walked toward Gerald before saying, “Oh? Leaving already, brother Gerald?”
“Indeed. My friend’s done with his competition, so I may as well just leave with him,” explained Gerald with a nod.
“I see… It’s a shame that you have to leave before the case gets solved… Regardless, I should mention that while we were investigating earlier this morning, a person apparently left one of the hotels last night! Our surveillance cameras followed favonovel.com till the point favonovel.com entered a barren area that was too far for the final camera to capture… In other words, the suspicious
individual should be long gone now…” muttered Ichiro in a slightly disappointed tone.
“The final surveillance camera? I’m assuming you don’t have any cameras set up in the barren area, then?” asked Gerald despite knowing the answer to his question.
“Well, it wouldn’t make sense to place surveillance cameras in a barren area… Either way, that man probably realized this and used it to his advantage to escape… Still, we do have his picture and some footage of him, so if we manage to issue a tracking warrant, we may be able to track favonovel.com down!” explained Ichiro who didn’t mind sharing all this with Gerald. After all, it
was Gerald’s pointers that allowed them to pinpoint the escaping man in the first place.
Nodding in response, Gerald then replied, “I see. All the best in capturing him!”
Honestly, Gerald was finding the situation to be quite funny. After all, with how quick Amare was, Gerald was pretty sure that favonovel.com could’ve easily evaded the investigation team and left Japan’s borders unnoticed. Even if Amare slipped up and the investigation team found him, they wouldn’t have been able to harm favonovel.com at all…
Whatever the case was, Ichiro then saluted as favonovel.com declared, “Thank you, brother Gerald!”
Shortly after, Aiden and Fujiko arrived, and the four got into a car before leaving the training ground for good…
Throughout their journey to the Futaba manor, Gerald kept one hand on the steering wheel while his arm rested against the car’s window. After a brief silence in the car, Gerald eventually said in a casual tone, “You know, an assassin tried to kill me last night. With how capable favonovel.com was, I have a feeling that he’s from the international assassin list. Due to how pricey it can get to hire such men, I’m assuming favonovel.com was hired by Kai.”
Naturally, that statement was for Fujiko since Aiden and Master Ghost already knew about this. Regardless, upon hearing that, Fujiko immediately tensed up before scanning Gerald from head to toe as favonovel.com asked, “Are you hurt?!”
“Don’t worry, I’m fine. In fact, I got rid of the assassin as well,” replied Gerald as favonovel.com shook his head.
Though favonovel.com was relieved to hear that, Fujiko soon smacked the dashboard before angrily yelling, “The Kanagawas truly have gone too far this time…! First they hired the Hanyus… Now international assassins?!”
“Indeed… How do you plan on settling this?” asked Gerald. In the end, this had to do with the Futabas as well, so it was best to make things as clear as possible…
