Hana was working in her office as usual. There was supposed to be nothing happening except she got disturbed by a certain soone.
"Huh? Clovis?" Hana squinted her eyes. Usually, she had been clearing up her connection the whole ti so that it didn't get tapped.
However, this was a problem since the call ca from Clovis. Still, this was the first ti Clovis called her, so she ended up answering the call. "Yeah? Do you need anything?"
"I'll explain later. Vasige City's Prison."
"Are you in prison or sothing? Alright. I'll try bailing you out. Don't say anything for now." Hana was completely confused. How could Clovis actually end up in prison? Although she didn't know him at a personal level, she at least knew his deeds.
Soone like him wouldn't be in prison unless it was a trap.
It seed that soone was trying to ss him up. As for the reason, that could wait.
Hana didn't have much connection in this country, so the only thing she could do was find the best firm possible to handle Clovis' case, asking them to get him out as quickly as possible.
And after getting such a big client as well as a sum of cash, they imdiately took care of the process.
However, what they didn't realize was that Clovis called Hana for another reason. Even if the lawyer was trying to do sothing, it would definitely require a bit of ti. It didn't seem that bails would be working that effectively either.
Hence, Clovis changed his target from Hana to his grandfather. Yes, the last person he knew who was in contact with his grandfather was actually Hana. It wouldn't be wrong to notice that there was a high chance that his grandfather was keeping an eye on her, which resulted in him knowing about this matter.
On the one hand, he felt ashad that he couldn't deal with this matter personally. It wasn't that he couldn't get out of prison. He just wanted to know the information about the experint they did on him, the result, and the removal of it.
Although he didn't know much about it, the perfect state would definitely be one of the things they would find out from that research.
In order to destroy that record, he had no other choice but to manipulate the situation in a way that his grandfather had to make his move.
Still, his grandfather would definitely not handle it right away. He wanted his grandson to rely on his own power. At the sa ti, he would also send out soone to investigate the matter to see whether it was important enough or not for him to get involved with.
During that investigation, Kanaria and the others erged from the tube.
"What? Clovis is in prison?!" Kanaria widened her eyes in shock.
"How did that happen?" Ragna furrowed his eyebrows. He noticed the police that got involved here.
Even the police didn't know about this matter. The captain was just observing them silently, noticing that they weren't punks or anything.
They still didn't realize that everything happened due to the doctor in front of them. The only thing they could do was ask the police.
Kanaria and Ragna ended up going to the police station, while lody and Jay remained in Essence Bank to get the truth.
"He attacked the doctor?" Jay frowned in confusion. He shook his head. "I'm sorry, but he is not a person who would attack them for no reason."
Ignoring them, the doctor imdiately left to get as far away as possible. anwhile, the captain only said, "That was what I saw. Attacking a personnel of Essence Bank in the bank itself was enough for him to get arrested."
"You should have just asked. Aren't you supposed to ask so basic questions?" Jay asked.
Little did they know, the problem would actually beco much more complicated than Clovis originally thought. Even Clovis didn't expect that the situation would beco much more out of control the mont his grandfather was involved. It might also be his grandfather's way of telling him to solve the problem himself if he wanted a certain outco.
After all, his grandfather was indeed getting involved, but it wasn't a re attempt to force the prison to free him. In fact, there weren't a lot of people he could contact in this country. And among those few people was actually the president.
Red House.
A person suddenly opened the door of the presidential office, rushing to the middle-aged man that was sitting on the opposite side of the room.
"Richard?" The president's gaze followed him.
Richard simply walked to the table and picked up the phone located on the side of the table. "Sir, you might want to hear this."
The president frowned, not understanding what was going on.
As if noticing that the call had been connected, a heavy voice imdiately echoed, "I thought that this country would be good for my grandson. It might not be a bad idea to let my grandson love the country and allow this country to claim him as your Tier 9 explorer.
"However, I was wrong. I'll give you a warning. Evacuate the entire city of Vasige. Within one month, anyone who is left will be destroyed along with the city."
The president didn't like this threat and asked, "Who are you?"
Unfortunately, the other person hung up. The president was perplexed, thinking that Richard wouldn't just tell him to listen to a simple threat. "Who is he?"
Richard, who had been listening to the call, gulped down as he answered with a hollow voice. "Michael Hacfield."
"Michael… what?" The president widened his eyes in disbelief.
"He claid himself to be Michael Hacfield."
…
The threat didn't simply end with a single country. Obviously, the warning was extended to the CEO of Essence Bank.
He once had a talk with him in the past concerning Clovis. It was a small warning, asking him to stop searching for Clovis' identity.
"This is Frey. May I know who is speaking?" He casually asked.
A familiar voice resounded across the room. "I have told you to stop bothering my grandson. And to think that you are trying to use him as an experint without his consent. It seems that Essence Bank has gone big enough that my warning only goes in one ear and out the other."
*Thud!*
