Chapter 382: Chapter 382: A More Serious Matter
Translator: 549690339
After all, they knew that there seemed to be some changes to the situation. From the very beginning, Suri Drew had already had everything under control, so how could she be worried all the time?
If that were the case, all Yigol Novak needed to do now was to wait quietly. He believed that it wouldn’t be long before he would hear something from the outside. As long as there were people coming to the hotel from the outside, they could leave.
Although they were indeed feeling a bit stifled at the moment, great plans would be ruined without enduring the small inconveniences.
Price quickly arrived at the small doorway they had just used.
Then, he carefully looked through one of the peepholes.
He saw that there were really no people up and down the stairs, which made him think that they hadn’t even considered this possibility.
Suri and Yigol, who were nearby, noticed him making this move and immediately moved closer, curiously asking.
“What are you doing?”
Price didn’t have any reason to hide anything from them, so he began to explain.
“I’m checking if there is anyone outside.”
Hearing this, their confusion deepened as they hadn’t thought it was possible to see the outside from here.
“Can you see outside from here? Let us have a look.”
As soon as Yigol said this, Price stepped back, giving them the spot, and then began to explain.
“Of course, how else would I have seen you being chased earlier and then managed to pull you in?”
Upon careful consideration, it really did make sense. If he couldn’t see outside from within, he wouldn’t have been able to see everything and rescue them at the crucial moment.
“I see. I never thought it would be possible to see outside from here.”
The two of them looked carefully and realized it was indeed true.
Moreover, they could clearly see that there were no people on the stairs.
After seeing this, they were finally reassured.
How could such a thing be anything but good news for them?
However, even if that was the case, they still couldn’t show themselves at this moment, not knowing if there were people outside.
If all the exits were guarded by then, they would have no way out. It would be better to stay here, at least they wouldn’t be bullied by others.
After the two of them had watched for a while, they returned to their original positions and sat down on the sofa beside them.
For a moment, nobody spoke, and the room fell into silence. At this point, they really didn’t know what to say.
Everything had happened so suddenly that they were caught off guard, and their hearts were indeed filled with discomfort.
But no matter what, they wouldn’t give up any opportunity.
It seemed that they weren’t speaking, but in their minds, they were seriously considering what to do next.
Not just that, they were also listening carefully to the movements outside.
If something really went wrong outside, they would definitely take action.
But thinking about it, this place was quite hidden, so it wasn’t likely that they would be discovered so easily. Therefore, they weren’t too worried right now.
Even so, they needed to be a little more cautious. If something went wrong, things would get very bad.
After quite a while, Price finally opened his eyes and looked at the two of them before speaking.
“Do you know of any similar transactions happening elsewhere?”
Hearing his question, Suri and Yigol shook their heads gently, for they really didn’t know much about it. They only knew about the massage place, and they had no idea about anywhere else.
If they had known, they would have already dealt with those matters.
However, they didn’t know at this point, so they didn’t know how to proceed.
“We really didn’t know before since we only went to that one massage parlour and nowhere else.”
Even now, when they had come to this hotel and had stayed here for several days, they hadn’t noticed any abnormal situation.
It was possible that nothing unusual had happened during these few days, so they hadn’t paid any attention.
When Price heard their explanation, he realized that they indeed didn’t know much about it. Under such circumstances, he wouldn’t have any reservations and decided to speak up.
“Actually, I’ve investigated many places in this world. Some places look no different from ordinary ones, but they are engaged in illegal transactions behind the scenes.”
Frankly speaking, he was astonished when he first discovered it, feeling that those people didn’t seem to be afraid at all.
Moreover, those people were acting quite openly, as if there were someone behind them protecting them.
Even if they slightly concealed it, it was still obvious to the discerning eye.
He found it unbelievable, so he began to speak out his thoughts.
“Also, I feel that they don’t seem to be afraid of being discovered. It feels like there’s someone behind them protecting them. I believe that in addition to these transactions, there are others, more severe ones.”
Hearing this, the two of them couldn’t help but feel incredulous.
Were there more severe things happening apart from what they knew now?
If that was really the case, then perhaps this matter wasn’t as simple as they had thought.
So at this moment, they both involuntarily took a deep breath.
“Are you serious? Which aspect do you think it is?”
Hearing this, Price’s face suddenly became serious. After pondering for a moment, he finally spoke through clenched teeth.
“I always feel it’s related to politics.”
As he said these words, the confusion in the eyes of Suri and Yigol grew even thicker. They hadn’t expected Price to say such a thing.
If this were an illegal transaction, the law would naturally impose sanctions.
