“I won’t go down there for now. I’ll go and inform the Viscount. It might be a misunderstanding, no, it must be a misunderstanding. You can just wait here for a moment.”
“Well, I have something to say, but I’m not sure if it’s appropriate to mention it.” Vincent Wolf hesitated for a moment.
“Oh, what is it?”
“I think, if you’re going to report this, you better not mention the corpse here.”
“Why?”
“Think about it, if you say that a plumber here insists on reporting something important to you, then I would be the only one who discovered it, and you wouldn’t be involved at all. So you see…”
The Junior steward had another moment of enlightenment.
If that’s the case, is he really free of responsibility?
Then the Viscount wouldn’t harm him because of this.
After all, he’s just a messenger and knows nothing!
The Junior steward clenched his right fist, hammering it into the palm of his left hand, visibly excited.
Brilliant!
Brilliant move!
He hurried to the side, took out his cell phone, and dialed a number.
“Viscount! Hey, it’s Alvin!”
“Here’s the thing. We have a new plumber we hired, and he says he has a major discovery he wants to report to you!”
“He won’t say what the discovery is, and insists on meeting you face to face before he does. He claims it’s a matter of utmost importance.”
“I’m afraid there might be a real issue, so I thought I’d report it to you. If you don’t want to meet him, I’ll just send him away.”
“You say you’ll meet him? Okay, I’ll have him wait for you here!”
Half an hour after the call, the Viscount appeared in front of Vincent Wolf. He didn’t seem too arrogant on the surface, but his body movements still displayed deep disdain.
“Speak, what’s the matter?”
“You see…” Vincent Wolf glanced at the Junior steward.
Without waiting for the Viscount to speak, the Junior steward hurriedly left.
[Identity: Viscount. Relationship with you: Hostile.]
Vincent Wolf’s eyes sharpened.
After the Junior steward left, the Viscount frowned at Vincent Wolf.
“You should be able to speak now, right?”
Vincent Wolf looked around mysteriously. After making sure that there was nobody else around, he whispered to the Viscount:
“A few days ago, I saw your wife secretly meeting with another man!”
“What are you talking about?!” The Viscount’s face changed, and he was furious.
He was about to reach out and grab Vincent Wolf, but saw the dirty plumber’s uniform on Vincent, and withdrew his hand.
“I’m telling you the truth, I wouldn’t dare deceive you, sir!” Vincent Wolf quickly explained.
The Viscount’s face changed several times before he asked in a deep voice:
“Where did you see it?”
“On another street, I discovered it accidentally while I was fixing the sewer.”
“Do you know who the man is?”
“I didn’t see his face, just his back. But I should be able to recognize him if I see him again.”
The Viscount stared at Vincent Wolf intently for a while, making Vincent feel a bit uncomfortable before continuing:
“I know the reason you’re informing me is that you want some money. I have money, but your information is too simple, and it’s not worth me paying for it. Even if you bear a grudge and spread this story everywhere, it will eventually be deemed a rumor due to lack of evidence, and I can even have you sent to prison on charges of defamation. ”
Seeing the disappointed and fearful expression on Vincent Wolf’s face, the Viscount continued:
“However, if you can obtain the corresponding evidence and hand it to me, believe me, the reward I can offer is beyond your imagination.”
Vincent Wolf successfully left the Viscount’s mansion and was interrogated by the Junior steward before leaving. Vincent casually put on a show and had the Junior steward submitting to him, saying that he was available to help at any time.
Vincent made sure that the Viscount hadn’t sent anyone to follow him before changing into another set of clothes and heading for his next target.
He needs to investigate several people today, and if he doesn’t manage his time properly, there’s a good chance that he’ll miss one or two, which could be a problem later on.
“Hello, your takeout is here.”
“Hi, do you know about Amway?”
“Hello, it will only take a minute of your time, and you can get health protection for you and your family.”
“I’m exhausted!”
Vincent Wolf had been running around for almost a day, and the last performance was about to end.
“I found almost twenty people, and added up, there are three hostile.”
“One Viscount, one Captain of the Beastmaster Mercenary Group, and one CEO of a company.”
“Based on my personal observation, I didn’t notice anything wrong, I’ve never had contact with them. Why would our relationship show as hostile?”
Vincent Wolf couldn’t figure it out but decided to observe the situation for now. After all, he felt that his Beast Tamer talent had never tricked him, so if it said hostile, it must be hostile.
As for why it’s hostile, he’ll have to think about it after today.
With that thought, Vincent Wolf cheered up, straightened the wrinkles on his clothes, and entered the banquet ahead.
Today’s last performance is at this banquet hosted by the City Lord.
This banquet is rather grand, inviting many famous nobles, with the purpose of welcoming the Grandmasters who were invited to Kyoto City.
Aiden Winter and Brad Winter also came to Kyoto City, and this banquet naturally invited them as well.
However, Brad had other matters to attend to and didn’t come, while Aiden, for some unknown reason, didn’t attend the banquet either..
