The eight men in the footage took advantage of the darkness of the night, and climbed over the fence. After they were discovered by the patrolling guards, one of them used a towel in his hand to knock them out. Then, they changed into their clothes and pretended like they were keeping watch on the villa until they saw a small orange cat. One of the men held the orange cat in his hands and knocked on the door, and thus, eight of them smoothly entered the villa.
Just by watching the footage, Eugene felt a chill run down his spine. It was a good thing that Jewel had come over to deliver a gift to Ellen that day, or she might have died.
However, how did these people know about the situation on this side of the villa? Not only did they know that there were patrolling guards, but they also knew that there were eight people on duty. They even prepared towels filled with intoxicants in advance in order to knock the guards out before they had time to issue a warning. Moreover, they knew that the orange. cat belonged to Ellen. This clearly showed that they were familiar with the villa. Was there a traitor?
“Let’s go, North. I’ll take you back.” North obediently followed Eugene out of the surveillance room. On the way back, he tilted his tiny head and asked, “Do you know who hired them?”
Eugene said, Til interrogate them in a bit.” “Do you think they’re assassins?” Eugene nodded. “They said they were assassins sent by Dragon’s Breath, but we’re not sure yet. I have to confirm the truth.”
North commented, “Verify the time they took the order, and the website they used. As long as it’s not on the killer website, I can find out who posted the employment offer.”
Eugene said, “All right. Don’t do anything rash. I’ll go and interrogate them.”
North nodded in assent. “All right.” After dropping North back to the villa, Eugene immediately went to the training grounds with Kyle. There was an interrogation room there where all the eight men were being detained. Upon seeing Eugene’s arrival, the men inside. immediately greeted him, “Mr. Nolan.”
He nonchalantly hummed in reply and removed his jacket before immediately taking a seat. “Bring their leader over.” The men grunted and headed inside to bring out the man called Casper, who was currently covered in blood. Clearly, he had been taken. care of during the previous night..
Eugene looked at him and said coldly, “I don’t want to make things difficult for you either, as you were only following orders. As long as you tell the truth, I will spare your lives. Otherwise, I’ll let you know this place is surrounded by the sea, and I can guarantee that nobody will know. of your death.”
Lying on the ground, the man struggled to catch his breath. His hands and feet were tied, but his eyes were clouded with blood, causing him to blink repeatedly. However, he did not say a word. Eugene asked, “Are you from Dragon’s Breath?”
However, the man continued to hold his silence. Kyle moved forward and stepped on the man’s head. “Mr. Nolan is talking to you. Can’t you speak?” Most likely due to the immense pain, the man answered after a long pause, “Yes!”
Eugene questioned, “What’s your name?”
The man replied, “Casper Schmidt!” Hearing that, Eugene immediately took out his phone and dialed a number. Several rings later, the call was answered, and the impatient voice of a middle-aged man sounded. “Who is it?”
His voice was breathless, and it seemed as if he were busy with a certain activity as smacking sounds and the sound of a woman’s whimpers could be heard from the phone every now and then.
Eugene’s face darkened. Valant was greedy, as well as lustful, and he lived up to his name. Had he kept both of his hobbies in check, Dragon’s Breath wouldn’t have gotten to the brink of being disbanded.
Unable to conceal his disgust, Eugene growled, “Valant, how dare you try to lay a finger on me. Are you so desperate for money that you’d give up your life?”
