Nanako’s words overturned all of Tomohisa’s guesses and inferences in regards to this whole matter.He would never have expected that the Japanese Self-Defense Forces would actually get involved in this kind of matter, and a strong wave of anger arose in his heart in an instant!Immediately afterward, Tomohisa ground his teeth and said, “Nanako, I truly have to thank you and your friend for this information. I will certainly arrest all the relevant people, interrogate them, and put them on trial as soon as possible!”Nanako smiled as she said, “Suzuki, I hope that this clue will be of some help to you.”Tomohisa replied steadfastly and affirmatively, “Nanako, if this clue is indeed true, you would have certainly helped me a lot!”After that, Tomohisa hurriedly said, “Nanako, I will not continue chatting with you anymore. I have to hurry up and make all the arrangements for the arrests first!”“Okay, Suzuki!”After Tomohisa had hung up the phone, he immediately contacted his old

However, she had only just discovered that Charlie was not home after she had arrived.It turned out that Charlie had already left for Japan because of an emergency a few days ago and had not returned yet.This made Loreen feel a little lost and despondent. Her originally happy and ecstatic mood instantly dimmed a lot.In fact, Loreen had actually been a little hesitant when Claire and her family had invited her to stay and join them for lunch just half an hour ago. She felt that since Charlie was not at home, she would only be wasting an opportunity to get closer to Charlie if she were to stay at Claire’s house for lunch today.She was thinking of telling them that she would just visit them again another day, but Loreen could not turn them down because Claire had been very enthusiastic, and she finally agreed to stay for lunch with them. However, Loreen would never have expected Charlie to come home even before they had started eating their meal!Therefore, Loreen was looking a

When she saw that Jacob and Elaine were about to get into an argument again, Claire hurriedly came forward to smooth things over. “Oh, Dad! Mom! Can’t the both of you talk without getting into an argument? Charlie just came home, and Loreen is here as well. Don’t embarrass yourselves in front of others…”Jacob looked at Elaine before he snorted coldly, “I won’t stoop to your level and argue with you anymore because I am giving my daughter face!”Elaine replied disdainfully, “You make it sound as though I want to stoop to your level and argue with you.”After she was done speaking, Elaine stopped looking at Jacob as she turned her head to the side. At this time, Loreen felt a little awkward as she said to Claire, “By the way, Claire, Quinn Golding will be coming to hold a concert here in Aurous Hill next month. Why don’t we go and watch it together, then?”Claire hurriedly smiled as she said, “Charlie said that he is going to accompany me to the concert. He knows Quinn personally,

What would he do if Loreen insisted on sitting next to him, then?Therefore, he certainly would have to turn her request down no matter what it was. He would simply allow her to find a way to get the tickets on her own. The best situation would be if she could not get a front-row seat for herself. However, if she did indeed manage to get a front-row seat for herself, as long as she was not seated next to him, he would have nothing to worry about.At this time, Loreen said to Claire again, “Claire, do you want to go shopping together with me later in the afternoon?”Claire glanced at Charlie before she whispered in Loreen’s ear, “Loreen, I don’t think I will go shopping with you. I will have to go back to work in two days. Furthermore, Charlie has just returned after being out for a few days. I want to stay at home to accompany him a little more.”Loreen was shocked.She could tell that Claire was speaking from the bottom of her heart when she said this.This made Loreen realize t

Meanwhile, at the Schulz family mansion in Eastcliff.Although Rosalie’s disappearance had made Cadfan and Sheldon feel very worried and nervous, this matter did not affect Sophie and Jaime’s mood at all.Both of them did not know about Rosalie’s true identity, and they simply regarded her as one of the servants in the family. Besides, Rosalie had always been working as Sheldon’s personal bodyguard, and she rarely had any form of interaction with the pair of siblings. Therefore, the pair of siblings naturally did not care too much about her affairs or wellbeing.At this time, the pair of siblings were in Sophie’s study room, and they were both staring at the computer screen. They were looking at the screenshots from the surveillance cameras that their subordinates had compiled for them.These screenshots were filled with pictures of the faces of young males with fair skin.These screenshots had been taken and saved from several surveillance videos from major airports in Japan by t

As she spoke, Sophie was also a little exhausted as she said, “The main point is that the both of us are the only ones who have met our benefactor before. So, only the two of us can do this kind of identification work.”Jaime nodded helplessly and said, “You are right. Let’s hurry up and try to find some clues about our benefactor as soon as possible!”As he spoke, Jaime suddenly remembered something and said, “By the way, Sophie, I will be going to Aurous Hill in two days. Do you want to come along too?”Sophie asked curiously, “What are you going to do in Aurous Hill?”Jaime replied embarrassedly, “Didn’t I sign a sponsorship and collaboration contract for Quinn’s concert? She will be holding her first concert of the year in Aurous Hill on the second day of February. Didn’t I promise her that I was going to donate ten million dollars to the Aurous Hill Charity? So, I want to personally make a trip there in advance so that I can not only arrange for the ten million dollars to be i

In truth, even if Jaime had not said anything, Sophie, who was extremely intelligent, had already noticed the recent abnormality in the family’s atmosphere.Also, the news from Japan was constantly airing news about Rosalie. Sophie knew that the Schulz family had made a mess in Japan in an attempt to save Rosalie.However, what she did not quite understand was the reason why her father was putting in so much time and effort into Rosalie’s matter.Based on reasoning, Rosalie was just a servant working for the Schulz family.If anything happened to a servant, the Schulz family would only need to give her family a generous pension according to the predetermined contract. After that, it would be sufficient if they paid them the settlement fee every month.Sophie felt that there was no need for them to switch a servant out from the hands of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.She could already figure out the high cost behind this action with a little brainstorming. It would cert

It was the same for the Japanese Homeland Security Bureau.If the Homeland Security Bureau were to arrest the members of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces to bring them back for interrogation on the grounds of threats to the national security, even the top commander of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces would not have any right to stop or question them at all.All the members of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces were also very clear that it would not be a good thing for them as soon as they got involved with the Homeland Security Bureau. Even if they did not die, they would certainly suffer from great mental and physical torture.Therefore, the people in the Japanese Self-Defense Forces had a natural fear of the Homeland Security Bureau.It was also precisely because of the reputation that the Homeland Security Bureau had, amongst the members of the Japanese Self-Defense Forces who were arrested and brought back for the surprise interrogation, some of the people with weaker psychologic

Soon, more collectors had gathered outside Treasure Measure even before Raymond showed up at Antique Street, with over ten of them gathered outside in no time at all.Since Raymond had only prepared ten slips, the rest left in disappointment seeing that they had no chance.Even so, the ten collectors who had gotten a number were nervous—save for the first man who had arrived.The details on the online sales post insisted that the price was fixed, and that first-come first-serve applies.If he bought the bronze sculpture, the other nine would have come all this way for nothing.However, if the seller decided to make it an auction, they would have a chance too, although their net profit would thin in turn. After all, they could have acquired the bronze sculpture for just 20 million, and that meant a solid 8 million in profit.An auction would at least raise the price to 27 million, and more would make it chicken feed.If they gave up at that point, it was a waste of a trip.If

Trippy naturally wasn't going to tell Mick everything word-for-word, so he said vaguely, "Uh, they were just being stubborn and refused to listen to anything I said. They kept saying that they wouldn't know until they saw the actual item."Mick got out of bed, staring at his phone as he mused to himself.This was getting a little ridiculous, was it not? A fool who was scammed, actually able to scam someone else? But if he really could sell it, wouldn't all their work be for nothing?With that in mind, he promptly called Zachary, who wasn't even up yet.Ever since he had started working for Don Albert, his daily routine was no longer the same as the days when he was a humble stall owner working on Antique Street, but a man of importance who slept late and woke up late.In the evening, he would be spending his time patrolling Don Albert's night entertainment properties as well as holding meetings with subordinates to decide on management policies and the like. That was why he wo

Seeing that Mick had a favor to ask, Trippy was naturally eager to seize the opportunity to get in his good graces."Don't worry, Mr. Crane!" He promptly replied. "Just leave it to me!"Returning to Treasure Measure, he went up to the first man who had come and said, "Hey, brother… Did you come to buy the bronze sculpture from Mr. Cole?"The man asked warily, "You know about the bronze sculpture?""Of course!" Trippy grinned. "I know all too well—it's actually famous here in Aurous Hill."Whipping out his phone, he played the short video that Mick had spent five grand promoting, saying, "Here—check this out!"Curious, the man took the phone and watched the video solemnly.The other latecomer soon hurried over as well and stared fixedly at the screen too.They watched as Bill entered a room with the bronze sculpture with Mick, the latter who checked it out and started commenting on it.The first man exclaimed in surprise, "Oh, it really is that bronze sculpture."The second ma

The other antique traders who were keeping tabs on the situation were left confused by Trippy's message.[Maybe even those out-of-towners know that Raymond is a sucker? So they traveled overnight just to see what happens?][I know Raymond is in trouble, but is it really worth traveling hundreds of miles just to watch?][Maybe they know he's a sucker, so they came to sell him more counterfeits?][Shit, that must be it! Suckers are rare these days, after all!][Damn straight! Just knowing that there's one in Aurous Hill, you'd be eager to come over.]Even Mick Crane who had just woken up and saw the message immediately sent a voice message: "Those conmen are just like flies flocking around shit as soon as they smell it.""Oh, but what they don't know is that Raymond has no more money! I heard he only had a few hundred thousand for the startup, and the bronze sculpture must have cost most of it. I'm afraid those people won't even get their gas money and toll costs back after travel

Trippy rolled his eyes as he texted back: [Hell no. I need to start my business instead of wasting my time. You morons can come get a number yourself if you like. Haha!]Still, Trippy had just sent his text when a trio arrived in a hurry outside Treasure Measure.Seeing that the doors were closed, the leader asked Trippy, "Excuse me, can I ask if this is Treasure Measure? Owned by a man named Mr. Cole?"Trippy was at once surprised. "You mean Raymond Cole?"The leader quickly said, "We don't know his first name, only that his last name is Cole, and his handle name was Treasure Measure's Mr. Cole."Trippy chuckled. "That'd be him. Has to be, since he hand wrote that shop sign."Pausing, he then asked in curiosity, "So, you've come to see him being a sucker?"The leader was naturally curious as to what Trippy was talking about. However, he was also reluctant to reveal why he had come since there was a killer bargain at stake. In fact, every other collector who was coming was k

Raymond also added that the 20 million price tag wouldn't be cut or increased. To put it simply, the bronze sculpture was right there in Aurous Hill and waiting—it was a race.Hence, many reputable collectors contacted expert appraisers throughout the night, some even booking night flights straight to Aurous Hill.The best amongst them was a fanatic collector of bronze items in Eastcliff.Following a brief exchange with Raymond online, he immediately called an expert who was also a close friend. As soon as his call was answered, he asked the other man if he had time to travel to Aurous Hill so that no one else would beat them to it—and they would drive out in the night if at all possible.After all, the earliest flight was at six in the morning, and it'd be eight by the time they made it to Aurous Hill Airport and nine by the time they got to Antique Street in a cab.Therefore, the ideal way to get there was by driving over six hundred miles at top speed, and that meant reaching A

While Jacob was feeling delighted after pulling off his con, Raymond had posted details of the bronze sculpture online.The website he was using was the biggest platform for antique collectors and the antique trade where each user could set a favorite tag in the antique category and era. If a user who preferred canvas art pieces of the Tudor dynasty set that label as their favorite, they would immediately be notified with text or desktop notifications in regards to any item with the same label.As medieval bronze sculptures were rare in the first place, most who were interested had already set that label on their favorites and were immediately notified soon after Raymond posted pictures of the bronze sculpture online.The collectors were naturally eager to check it out as gilded sculptures of the medieval era were really rare, and most collectors would go a lifetime without picking one up for their collection.On top of that, the seller had even listed a major flaw and was only ask

"Nope," Jacob chuckled. "We were both working separately and just happened to get back in at the same time."Then, he immediately became smug and excited, "Guess what, dear? I made 200 thousand out of the deal! In net profits!""For real?!" Elaine gaped. "200 thousand in just one night?! That's amazing! How did you do that?"Claire was surprised to hear that too, and she came over to ask, "What deal was it, Dad?"Jacob grinned, "Oh, it's nothing to brag about. It's just that I managed to pick up a nice antique item thanks to my wisdom and then sold it for 200 thousand."Pausing, he then sighed in dismay, "However, the buyer wasn't too rich—I would have squeezed him for 400 thousand, but he couldn't afford more, so I had to settle for less."Elaine quickly exclaimed, "Shit, we're talking about a loss of 200 thousand! People would work a year and still never earn that much…"She trailed off for a moment before asking, "By the way, dear—are we still flying out first thing tomorrow?

Jacob laughed. "Put that issue behind us? Sure, but we're not becoming friends. Hell, I can't even hold a grudge now that you're shit out of luck."Then, his tone changed sharply and suddenly became icy, "But you see, Aurous Hill is not a place you can stay just because you want to. No… After this, you're not going to be able to make a living in the antique trade.""If I were you, I'd be running a thousand miles away, far away from Aurous Hill where no one would know my face to start over. That way, you just might be able to make a living."Raymond simply kept smiling, "You need not be concerned about how I'm going to survive here, Mr. Wilson. I'd be very grateful if you'd cease any form of harassment once you leave my premises."Jacob pursed his lips, staring at Raymond in disappointment. "I'm plenty magnanimous, so I won't stoop to such pettiness. Just do whatever you like!"Clicking his tongue, he huffed, "Tut, tut… And here I'd thought you're tough, but you're just yet another
