Chapter 291: Breaking News (2)

Sherons mansion.

The cleaned artifacts were laid out on the table, personally wiped down by Sheron herself.

This one. This one. This one.

She selected a few among them. Most were restraints like handcuffs or restraining suits.

I can feel the souls in these. If we adjust the frequency precisely, well see Anyway, it seems theyre not dead but alive.

Can you also determine their location?

Soliette asked. Sherons face tightened.

Do I look like a human radar to you

*Ahem*

Sigh.

After my deliberate cough, she sighed deeply and quietly closed her eyes.

Mana began to emanate from her body.

It seemed like she was doing something, but I couldnt understand the exact principle. That's typical for a rSpectrumJ .

I found it.

Sheron opened her eyes.

She took a pen and precisely scribbled down all the coordinates, including latitude and longitude.

How do you know these coord in ates?

It was quite surprising to me. Before her regression, she never utilized this rspectrumj .

Sheron shrugged.

Hmph. Its about utilizing the frequency, amplitude, and period of the waves comprehensively. You wouldnt understand even if I explained in detail, so let's skip that. More importantly.

Her face suddenly turned serious as she glared at me.

Can it happen?

Yes.

lt better.

Sheron waved her hand at soliette.

Soliette. You go outside for a bit.

Yes, yes.

Soliette, looking at the paper with the coordinates, stepped outside.

Now tell me. How are you going to arrange the meeting?

Sheron crossed her arms.

Before that, what exactly are you planning to inquire about?

What? Why should I have to tell you that?

Sherons eyebrows twitched left and right like some kind of living caterpillar.

lf you ask something nonsensical, it could put me in an awkward position.

DO you think I would ask something nonsensical?

I firmly shut my mouth. Sheron stared at me with laser-like eyes before letting out a sigh.

Ugh. Its about family matters. So, I cant tell you the details.

Aventagher, related to Sherons family.

That gives me a rough idea of what it might be about. The elders of Aventagher are notoriously strict.

The reason she was expelled from Aventagher before her regression was mostly because of these elders.

Yes. Ill arrange the meeting and contact you.

Really? When? Its going to happen, right?

Sheron asked with a beaming smile. I nodded confidently.

lt will happen.

Crash!

Derek hurled a glass against the wall. Shards flew in all directions. Gedley couldnt bear to look at him and bowed his head.

I am terribly sorry.

ls that kind of apology supposed to fix this?

Derek was furious. The losses from the [New Frontier] project were astronomical, but what disgusted him even more was Verns smug face.

I have nothing to say, even if I had ten mouths. It was their sheer luck

Luck? Luck?

Thump!

Derek slammed his fist on the desk.

Such bullshit about luck, we should have been prepared for this.

His voice was laced with a bitter laugh, clearly indicating extreme anger.

There was a pioneer team at New Frontier. We should have kept them in check. Then we wouldnt be in this shitty situation!

He grabbed a bottle by the neck and hurled it at Gedley, striking him hard in the chest.

lm sorry.

Dont worry.

An oddly calm voice intervened. Derek looked over.

It was Dr. Vito from the Al department.

The research will be completed soon. Once our Al is commercialized, we can recover this scale of loss in just one day.

What does that have to do with our current losses?

Dereks jaw trembled as he glared. Vito responded clearly.

Director Gedley was the one who scouted Dr. Killian, our key researcher. Without Dr. Killian, the project would have been delayed by at least six months. Please consider that as well.

She quietly got up. It was the sudden memory of his father that spurred her.

Dale Ascal, who served Libra but died on duty.

What kind of man was his father?

Johanna became curious.

Because love spreads like ripples, she became interested in everything related to him. She wanted to know everything about him.

Perhaps, it could be a gift to him.

Before heading out, Johanna took a packet of pills. They were new antidepressants prescribed by Yu Hains.

I received information from my team members on the hotline.

lt looks like Gedley is about to make a movehis condition is quite fierce was the message.

Indeed, he blew his entire fortune accumulated over decades. The losses must be even greater than before his regression.

It seems like its time to activate Bell Moore.

He seems a bit unstable.

In the warehouse of the Intelligence Agency, where he had fully joined the Bell Moore forcesunbeknownst to Bell MooreDavid, the external team leader, said.

How about the other team leaders?

lt seems theyve suffered significant losses too. Apparently, they forgot it was an operation and put in their own money.

Hmm. I see.

I nodded and casually brought up the next point.

lt looks like Gedley is going to act more aggressively.

Aggressively?

Yes.

NO. I dont think so.

The external team leader shook his head.

Gedley is an expert at strangling his opponents. Hes more likely to do a background check and slowly tighten the noose using his connections.

He shrugged his shoulders.

Even if hes lost his rationality, he wont start shooting wildly inside the Intelligence Agency. Derek is already furious hell be cautious.

I have a different view.

I crossed my arms. David slightly furrowed his brow.

Trust me on this one, second-year Chaser. Ive been opposing Gedley for 15 years.

I stared at David. David didnt look away either.

Such power struggles are common. Even if theres a recognition of being allies, once were from different houses, everyone wants to take the lead.

Therefore, not only do I need to elevate Bell Moore to the director position, but I also need to establish superiority among these allied forces.

Yes. I understand. Since my experience is still limited, let's defer to Team Leader David on this matte r.

You make things sound so complicated.

I nodded.

Alright. Ill contact you later.

Do that.

I stepped out into the corridor of the Intelligence Agency and called Bell Moore.

Team Leader Bell Moore, where are you right now? I need to talk to you.

What? Im outside. Just say whatever you want here.

lts urgent.

What's the matter then?

Judging by the background noise seeping through, he seemed to be near a club.

Youre aware of the failure of the New Frontier operation, right?

Yeah, that. I was shocked. I was about to get involved in the public auction, didnt know how, and almost got screwed over.

I think Director Gedley blames you for the failure.

What? Are you insane? What have I done?

Bell Moore retorted. I quickly continued.

The operation was originally ours, Team Leader Bell Moore. So now, the director thinks you deliberately screwed them over

Ah shit, why are you stirring things up? Im starting to doubt you. Gedley is a decent man

He really lacks ambition.

Still, Bell Moore has strong survival instinct.

I've prepared something to trigger that instinct.

Lets meet in person to discuss this, Ill come to you. Where did you leave the car keys?

Ah, damn it. Theyre in the team leaders office. Dont you have a car?

I sent it for repairs. Ill see you later. Don't drink.

Hang on, damn it.

I stopped by the team leaders office and picked up the car keys from the table. Then I headed down to the Intelligence Agencys parking lot.

Bell Moores large SUV was parked in the middle.

He takes taxis to and from clubs, a strange way of showing his adherence to the law by not drinking and driving.

I opened the car door and sat in the drivers seat.

As I gripped the steering wheel and was about to press the accelerator.

BOOM!

An explosion surged from beneath the car. A deafening roar filled the parking lot.

Meanwhile, inside the car, I smiled as I felt the hot air burst around me.

Why?

Because it was all my own setup.
