The conclusions drawn earlier had once again emerged.
And this time, as opposed to the previous vagueness, they were much clearer.
’It wasn’t me who escaped to Ang City.’
’It was you who arranged for me to be in Ang City.’

Inside, he was extremely anxious.
The calm on his face was just a pretense of composure.
Through the descriptions by senior Edmund, he knew very well what kind of person ’Lawrence’ was.
A smart yet mean-spirited fellow who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.
Would the ’fallback’ plan left by such a bastard be simple?
In fact, from the moment senior Edmund confirmed that Ang City’s ’orphanage’ had the enemy’s fallback plans, he had begun his investigation.
