Even when covered in the dirtiest mud, a diamond will remain a beautiful, sparkling diamond.
Riki never expected that, despite all his shortcomings and limitations, Nicho would have such extraordinary talent.
At first, Riki couldn’t believe all the talents that his detection skills had revealed to him. But now he could see it for himself.
Nicho, all by himself, was able to hack into his boss’s computer and copy important data and docunts belonging to his boss.
Anton was even stunned, unable to believe what he was seeing at that mont.
Important and dangerous transaction data was there. Several parties were also visible in it. The nas of important people also appeared.
"Do you believe now, Mr. Riki?" asked Nicho, anxiously waiting for Riki’s reaction.
The boy felt relieved when Riki smiled at him and nodded, "Yep, I believe you, so I’ll take all the important data and docunts. Then, you’ll get what you want."
Then Riki turned to Anton, "Take Nicho to the empty room. I’ll et Leon out front. Oh— bring him so more appropriate clothes too, let him clean himself up."
"But are you sure, Riki? I an, he used to be one of them," replied Anton, who still couldn’t trust Nicho.
Riki smiled and said, "Don’t worry, I’ve made sure he’s safe. He won’t fight back or run away."
Anton nodded in agreent, then took Nicho to the empty room.
Riki returned to the front. He saw the police arresting the criminals. Leon was also there, waiting for Riki.
"Everything’s okay here, right?" asked Leon.
Riki nodded, "Yeah, everything’s fine. Like I said before. And we need to talk privately. You’ve made sure that Nicho—I an the one I took inside—won’t be interrogated, okay?" asked Riki, then he continued whispering to Leon.
"He’s our key to uncovering Jack Handerson’s conspiracy," whispered Riki.
Leon’s eyes imdiately lit up when he heard Riki’s words.
"I’ll make sure they all forget about him, so let’s talk now," urged Leon.
But right after that, a police officer called him over to discuss sothing.
"I’ll talk to him for a mont, then I’ll follow you inside to talk, okay?" said Leon, before approaching the police officer.
Riki returned to the mansion.
Selene had cald down, and she had even started cooking breakfast with the maid and Sofie.
Riki sat with Anton and Sean.
"What really happened?" asked Sean.
"This is much more dangerous than I thought, Sean. You know, there are people in this world who are more terrifying than Vicky or David, right? My ex and Anton’s ex are currently challenging that dangerous person. This is really crazy," said Riki.
"I regret ever loving her," said Anton, looking very offended to hear Riki talking about Hannah again.
"What do you an? I’m still confused," asked Sean.
Riki sighed deeply, then he continued, "Well, Hannah, or my ex and Anton’s—"
"Don’t call her my ex!" Anton interrupted.
"Shut up, Anton! Well, Hannah seems to be obsessed with competing with Angeline or Liz, so when she found out that both of them were going to debut as idols, Hannah—"
"Correction, I think Hannah is just obsessed with competing with Liz." Anton replied to Riki’s statent again.
Riki clicked his tongue in annoyance, but he continued his explanation.
"Okay, Hannah found out that Liz was going to debut as an idol, so she wanted to imitate her, then she cheated on Anton with a man who was the CEO of a fairly large entertainnt agency. Even though the man already had a wife, crazy Hannah didn’t care. She even seed proud to be the man’s mistress, a man who was said to be the tenth richest man in the country. It turns out that the man had gangsters under him. I found this out from Nicho just now. The man had a subordinate who was both a regent and the boss of the gangsters. Nicho was forced to work there because the manager of the orphanage where he lived was an acquaintance of the gangster boss. Well, the reason why the gangster boss’s n ca here was to destroy Selene’s ntal state. In my opinion, they will terrorize Selene until she withdraws from her debut as an idol. And I think Angeline and Liz will also receive similar treatnt after the two of them succeed in bringing Selene down."
Sean nodded his head, having understood the gist of this morning’s problem.
"But, that gangster boss is also the regent? That’s crazy, right? No wonder Selene ran away here. Rember, Selene said that man intended to marry her by saying she had fake debts? It turns out he has a position like that," said Sean.
Riki nodded, "Don’t worry, after this, he will be removed from office. If they have been hiding under power and money all this ti, then we have that too."
Riki, who looked calm, seed to be hiding his anger behind his sweet smile. Although he looked calm, it was clear that he was very emotional.
Not long after, Leon arrived. They had breakfast together, with Nicho as well.
After breakfast, Riki invited Leon to a small office inside the mansion.
It was called small because only part of the large room was used as an office. The rest was filled with large shelves displaying various books. The rest was empty space that Riki didn’t know what to do with.
The room was on the second floor, in front of which was a large balcony that was also still empty. Riki planned to call Evan or Angeline and have them think about a small garden on the large balcony. It would definitely be very nice.
But that could wait, because Riki’s focus right now was Leon.
"Those are all the data and important docunts belonging to Jack Handerson’s subordinates. He is the boss of those thugs, as well as the regent of the area," said Riki.
Leon checked the contents of the data and imdiately laughed happily when he saw it.
"This is incredible! How did that kid hack all this? He even got evidence of deleted transactions—what’s this? They also sell human organs illegally? They also distribute drugs and get paid to kill people. Hahaha, crazy... this is indeed the work of ordinary gangsters, but what makes it all feel so crazy is that the perpetrators are well-known figures who have a good reputation in the eyes of the public. Did you know that the boss or regent has been praised this month for successfully making their area the cleanest? And that jerk Jack Handerson, he donated a million dollars to an orphanage in Ivana’s na last night and received a lot of praise from netizens," said Leon.
Riki grinned, "People who like to show off when doing good deeds are the ones most worthy of suspicion."
Leon nodded in agreent, "That’s right, because the most corrupt officials are those who are known for always donating. They even compete to make donations. It makes people not believe them when they get caught for embezzling state funds."
"You can take care of all this, right, Leon?" asked Riki.
Leon nodded, "Don’t worry, I’m making good use of my uncles’ influence and power, Riki. And... I think your na will also appear as one of the richest people next month."
Riki furrowed his brow, "Can’t I ask them not to write my na there?"
[Not for now, master. You have to show your wealth. Once people know, then you can hide your wealth]
[You are also prohibited from hiding from paying taxes to the state]
Well, Riki thought, there was a price to pay for all the luxuries he currently enjoyed.
"Actually, you can, but don’t you want your na to appear in magazines as the richest person?" asked Leon.
Riki laughed and shook his head, "No, I’m just kidding. I have to show those who once insulted that I’m not the poor kid they used to know."
Leon laughed heartily at Riki’s words and patted him on the shoulder.
"That’s great, buddy! You have to show them where you stand. Don’t hide. You have to show them everything."
After that, they both laughed together, laughing at their conversation, which suddenly sounded very silly.
"Oh yeah, Leon. I want to buy the orphanage where Nicho is, because the orphanage administrators are their accomplices," asked Riki.
Leon thought for a mont, "In that case, I’ll take care of the orphanage. You just need to buy it later. Because the process is a bit difficult, it can’t be done instantly. At the earliest, you can buy it and renovate it tomorrow."
Leon left after that, promising that he would take care of the orphanage issue.
Riki was still upstairs, waving his hand at Leon, who was already downstairs, ready to get into his car.
"Excuse , Mr. Riki..."
Riki turned around and saw Nicho, who was much better than before.
There was no more dull skin and shabby clothes. All that remained was a clean and intelligent-looking handso teenager.
"You can rest first, Nicho," said Riki.
The boy shook his head and imdiately approached Riki.
"No, let work for you, Mr. Riki! I am willing to do anything for you."
Riki was silent for a mont, staring at the boy, a thought crossing his mind.
"Nicho, how about I adopt you as my brother? I don’t know if that’s possible or not. As far as I know, minors cannot just leave the orphanage. You are protected by the governnt. In fact, you are not even allowed to work yet, especially if it is to support your younger siblings at the orphanage. If you want to co with , I think the only way is adoption," said Riki.
Nicho’s eyes widened when he heard Riki’s words. He looked very happy at that mont, as if those were the words he had been waiting to hear all this ti.
But suddenly his expression turned gloomy, and he said,
"What about my younger siblings at the orphanage?"
