Sometimes, one couldn't help but admire the young girl's way of thinking. A casual remark could sometimes reveal the truth.
Tony nodded in agreement. “Makes sense.”
At that moment, Donna said, “Anyway, we already know this person's name and where he's from. Now, the most important thing is to see if we can find any of his weaknesses. If we can, that would be great. If not, we'll have to wait and see what news Thalia brings back.”
Listening to Donna 's words, Miguel nodded. “That's right.”
Tony averted his gaze and continued to look at the laptop. To achieve victory in every battle, one must know both themselves and the enemy.
Miguel watched while Tony was searching. Meanwhile, Donna and Ben started eating again.
Time passed by, and soon, it was already one o'clock. Donna was dozing off on the table, feeling tired. Just then, there was a sudden commotion outside.
The door was pushed open, and Donna jolted awake.
Seeing the person at the door, Donna immediately perked up. “Thalia, you're back?” Thalia looked at them and asked, “Why? Haven't you all slept yet?”
Donna immediately walked over to her and held her hands. “How could we sleep when you're not back yet!” She then looked at Thalia and asked, “How are you? You're not injured, right?”
Thalia laughed. “Of course not.”
At that moment, Tony looked at her and asked, “So, did you find any useful information?” Thalia walked over to the table and saw a cup of coffee. “Whose is this?”
“I prepared it for you,” Donna immediately said.
Thalia didn't try to be courteous. She opened the drink and took a sip right away. After sitting down, she looked at them and said, “As you expected, Magus did indeed meet with that person today.”
“So, what happened next?”
“That person must have sought out Magus for some task. The distance was too great for me to hear their conversation clearly. However, based on my guess, that person must have taken on a business deal and now needs someone to join him, which is why he went looking for Magus.”
After learning about the situation, Miguel couldn't contain his curiosity and blurted out, “Where does this guy get his confidence from? Isn't he afraid that Magus will kill him?”
Thalia heard this and said, “Shamelessness makes one invincible, but I think he must have something up his sleeve. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to approach so boldly.”
Listening to Thalia's words, Tony nodded. “Your analysis should be correct.”
“Seriously, if it wasn't for that person having some sort of leverage, I would have gone straight over there tonight and killed him,” Thalia said.
Tony listened, his pair of black eyes seemingly planning something. “So, what do we do next?” Thalia asked.
“I haven't decided yet,” Tony said.
“Did you really tell Magus that we're leaving tomorrow afternoon, or were you just kidding?” Thalia asked.
“Of course, it's true!”
“Then, how about that person?” Thalia asked.
Tony looked at her. “Shouldn't I be asking you that? It depends on what you want to do.”
Upon hearing this, Thalia's eyebrows slightly raised. “So, you mean I can do whatever I want with him?” “Of course!”
“Why didn't you say so earlier? I could have taken care of him tonight,” Thalia said.
“But if you take action, it won't be as satisfying as letting Magus do it,” Tony reminded. “What do you mean?”
“It's exactly as you understand it.” Tony nodded in agreement.
Thalia thought of Magus' words. He had said that there would be no satisfaction if he didn't do it himself.
Indeed, it would be better for him to make a move.
“What about the thing he has in his hands?” Thalia asked.
“If he is dead, what can possibly be leaked? And even if there is something, don't you still have me?” Tony said.
Upon hearing this, Thalia immediately gained complete confidence. “You're right. That makes sense. In that case, I'll go tomorrow morning and directly kidnap the person for Magus!” The more she thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. She added, “That's the plan, then.”
“Even though Lindon grew up on the streets, there's a ten-year gap in his records that none of us know what happened during that time. So, when you take action, be cautious,” Tony said.
“Lindon?” Thalia frowned. “It's him,” Tony said.
After hearing this, Thalia nodded and asked, “How did you know his name?”
At that moment, Donna , who was standing nearby, spoke up. “Before you came back, Tony had already found out that person's identity and information.”
Upon hearing this, Thalia nodded. “I see.” Then, as if recalling something, she looked at Tony and added, “What exactly is your plan? You haven't said anything. Aren't you afraid I'll ruin it?”
However, Tony said with a smile, “The plan is to have no plan. Just follow our hearts. No matter how the process goes, the outcome won't change.”
“No. Why do you mean by that?”
Tony closed the laptop immediately, then let out a yawn. “All right, it's getting late. Since you're back, I'll go to my room and rest. Be careful tomorrow.” With that said, he picked up the laptop and headed straight to his room.
Seeing that everyone had left the room, Miguel wondered why he was still there. He hadn't slept at all last night and was extremely tired at this time. With a smile, he said to Thalia, “Good night.” Then, he, too, headed toward his room.
“Good night.” Seeing the situation, Ben went straight back as well. At this time, only Thalia and Donna were left in the living room.
Watching them leave one by one, Thalia's eyebrows furrowed. “What's happening? What's the deal with everyone leaving?”
