The news of Mayor Sloo Derl being kidnapped in the hospital was suppressed by the authorities right away, but some people with special channels still got wind of it.
Lagren, for example.
The hotel owner, who was in charge of the Monster Hunter contact point in Eiders, knocked on the table in front of him with a heavy expression, producing loud bangs.
No doubt, Sloo Derl's kidnapping had exceeded his expectations.
As a matter of fact, when Hardy Lynne was killed by Wilberst and the appearance of millions of monsters, it had already exceeded Lagren's expectations.
Huu!
No one liked things that went beyond their expectations.
Lagren was no exception.
Fortunately, he was used to these kinds of things that went beyond his control.
After all, no one could guarantee a 100% grasp of the things that were related to the Monster Hunters.
Since he was used to things that went beyond his control, he knew how to solve them.
Leave the professional matters to the professionals.
Lagren thought it was bullsh * t at first, but now he agreed with it.
The losses he suffered in the past were enough to tell him what he should do in this situation.
Therefore, Lagren picked up the beer beside him, drained it in one gulp, and strode upstairs to Kieran's room.
The door was already opened without a knock.
"This is the benefit of dealing with you guys."
Lagren couldn't help but shrug when he saw Kieran sitting on the chair waiting for him. When he saw Kieran's cold and expressionless face, Lagren shrugged again.
"Of course, there are disadvantages as well."
Lagren then walked up to Kieran.
"What do you think of the current situation?"
Lagren asked.
"What situation?"
Kieran asked back.
"The whole situation!
Everything that happened after that idiot Hardy Lynne lost his things! "
Lagren pointed at the bed beside him. After Kieran expressed that he didn't mind, Lagren sat beside the bed.
"Hardy Lynne is indeed an idiot."
Kieran said calmly.
"That's all?
That's all! "
Lagren glared at Kieran, but it was useless. Kieran nodded.
"You know, I'm not talking about that. Hardy Lynne stole that thing in order to find his missing daughter. He's indeed an idiot. There's no need to mention it again."
"I'm talking about …"
"The person who did this!"
"The guy who kidnapped Hardy Lynne's daughter and the mayor, Sloane Derl."
Lagren emphasized.
He thought he had made himself clear enough.
Unfortunately, Kieran didn't answer. He just sat there silently without saying a word.
"You know something, right?"
"You must know something!"
"Tell me quickly!"
Lagren stood up impatiently and circled around Kieran, hoping to find out what he wanted to know this way.
However, Kieran remained unmoved.
Kieran sat there like a statue, completely ignoring Lagren's presence.
It infuriated Lagren, but soon enough, Lagren was discouraged.
He knew the temperament of the Demon Hunters too well.
What they were willing to tell, they would tell.
What they didn't want to tell, no matter what they said, it was useless.
It was infuriating!
Sometimes, he really wanted to give these bastards a good beating, but whenever he thought about the difference in strength, Lagren sighed in his heart.
However, Lagren didn't give up.
Even if it was useless to say anything and he would fail no matter what he did, he wouldn't back down.
It wasn't just the Demon Hunters who were stubborn, the people related to the Demon Hunters shared the same temperament. It was just that they didn't realize it themselves.
"Wier!
The things you said to Wier before wouldn't be baseless, and based on how you feel about Wier, you wouldn't purposely remind him. "
"So, you must know something."
Lagren said in a firm tone.
This time, Kieran didn't hide anything.
What Lagren said was the truth, so …
"Em."
Kieran nodded.
"What else?"
Lagren asked again.
However, there was no answer. Kieran went silent again.
Lagren looked at Kieran, clenching his fists and panting heavily.
"If it wasn't for the fact that I can't beat you, I'd show you how despicable you are right now!"
Lagren shouted angrily, widening his eyes and staring at Kieran blankly.
The stare lasted for a few minutes.
In the end, Lagren's eyes were sore, so he had to rub them. While Lagren was rubbing his eyes, Kieran suddenly spoke.
"Just a little bit more!"
The sudden words made Lagren put down his hands, but his gaze at Kieran grew even more unfriendly.
"You did it on purpose, didn't you?
Just a little bit more?
What little? "
Lagren was worried that Kieran would go silent again, so he grumbled softly before asking.
"Who is that big shot?"
Kieran said slowly.
"Big shot?
You are saying … "
Lagren was stunned for a while, as if he thought of something, he wanted to say it out loud, but when he opened his mouth, he stopped.
"Can't say it out loud?
Or what will happen if I say it out loud, so much so that people are afraid of this name? "
Kieran raised his head and looked at Lagren in the eyes for the first time. Lagren shrugged again and even opened his hands helplessly.
"Those who know can't tell those who don't know.
"Can't you even give me some hints?"
Unless … the person himself tells those who don't know? "
Lagren didn't answer.
However, Lagren's attitude said it all.
It was enough for Kieran to speculate.
"Interesting."
Kieran then stood up and walked down the stairs under Lagren's confused gaze.
"Where are you going?"
Lagren couldn't help but ask.
"Waiting for someone in the lobby."
Kieran replied.
"Waiting for someone?
Wait for who? "
Lagren's question was ignored by Kieran again. It wasn't intentional though, because when Kieran walked down the stairs, an irritating screech of brakes came from outside the hotel.
Wier ran in in a hurry and said in a hurried tone.
"Lord D, please follow me.
That lord wants to see you! "
"Okay."
Kieran didn't reject, nor did he ask anything else. He followed Wier outside.
There was no need to reject.
No need to ask.
He had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
