Who leaked his whereabouts? The first person Kieran thought of was Anne Aldrich Augen.
Though, Kieran quickly shook his head.
Anne Aldrich Augen was a woman who prioritized benefits above all else.
A woman like her couldn't be truly trusted but because of that, she was excluded by Kieran.
When he fought Mayer and won the battle, the value that he displayed was enough for Anne Aldrich Augen to know what to do in order to get the most out of it. Seeing how Anne Aldrich Augen immediately locked down Augen Manor and filled up the trench that Anne Aldrich Augen created with the Dawn Sword, Kieran knew Anne Aldrich Augen was definitely plotting something big.
"What a perfect match for Cymede Augen!"
After exclaiming, Kieran checked the inside and out of the club and made sure he didn't miss anything before he took out his phone.
"Mr. 2567, would you like to have dinner with me?
The taste of the roasted lamb chops is so similar to your temperament, tender and tempting yet you want to reject it. "
Anne Aldrich Augen's lazy voice came from the other end of the phone.
"How about dipping it in your blood and eating it?
I guess it will have a different taste right? "
Kieran pretended to be cold.
"What happened?"
Anne Aldrich Augen's voice sounded heavy.
"I was attacked after I dealt with the two fighters in the club. I don't know how he found me but he couldn't have followed me, so guess what I am thinking now?"
Kieran laughed coldly.
"Give me some time!
I'll give you a satisfying answer! "
Anne Aldrich Augen was very direct and hung up the phone after she finished.
Kieran couldn't help but shrug when he saw the end of the call.
It wasn't an intentional lie.
It was just a reasonable use, just like how Anne Aldrich Augen wanted to use Kieran.
Kieran who couldn't split himself into two was more concerned about another matter. What was waiting for him at Donna Bar and Sago Candy House?
What was that imposter Gannett's goal?
Kieran left the club in the outskirts with heavy doubts in his mind.
…
The Ximi Candy House still had the long signboard from two hundred years ago.
The wooden material was painted with colorful candy patterns, and it was placed in a container that looked like a large beer mug.
Although the color was mottled, the wood was of excellent quality. It did not peel from the wind, rain, and sun, and still maintained its flat appearance.
Hanging on the iron poles that extended out from the eaves, it immediately formed a style that was different from Edland's modernized city compared to the slightly shorter two-storey building.
Kieran walked down three steps, glanced at the lit room, and pushed the door open.
Ding!
The melodious ringing of the wind chimes reached Kieran's ears.
However, Kieran frowned.
He smelled fresh blood.
The stench hidden in the sweet candy smell.
Out of instinct, Kieran activated [Tracking] and walked into Ximi Candy House. As a matter of fact, there was no need for a detailed check.
Kieran already saw the feet sticking out from the counter.
Kieran saw Ximi as he walked down the aisle beside him.
The young fourth Ximi still had fear and panic on his face. He was lying on the floor of his house with his face facing the sky. There was a wound through his chest, causing blood to seep out and drench the clothes of the corpse.
The wound on his chest was protruding outwards, it seemed like Ximi was killed from the back.
When Kieran flipped over the body with a piece of candy wrapper in his palm, he squinted his eyes when he saw the wound on Ximi's back.
The wound wasn't wide but it was deep!
It was exactly the same as the wound on Brigal's back!
"It was the same dagger!
The same person! "
Kieran checked the surroundings and after he didn't find any traces, he was sure the one who killed Ximi was the one who injured Brigal.
He might also be the culprit behind the Winchester House explosion.
Of course, there was one more thing to add.
The culprit was related to the fake Gannett.
"If that's the case …"
Kieran turned around and left as the thought popped up in his mind.
He had to go to Donna Bar.
…
Dozens of fire trucks were blaring their alarms loudly.
But what was more deafening was the ceaseless explosions in Donna Bar.
"What's that explosion?
Hurry up and cut off everything, including the gas pipes! "
One of the fire truck captains shouted loudly.
Kieran, who was hiding in the shadows, stopped and looked at the blazing Donna Bar. His squinted eyes were shining brightly, no one knew what he was thinking about.
With such a big fire and the explosions, it was impossible for anyone to be alive inside.
Even if the fire brigade arrived in time, all they could do was prevent the fire from spreading.
After another glance at the building that was engulfed in flames, Kieran turned around and vanished into the shadows.
…
Kieran didn't return to Augen Manor, instead, he went back to Mecathy and Borjane's bookstore.
The moment he stepped into the bookstore, his phone rang.
"There's a mistake in one of my processes!"
Someone in the manor sold your whereabouts at a high price! "
Anne Aldrich Augen said quickly the moment the call was picked up.
"The one who bought the information was the owner of Donna Bar?"
Kieran asked.
"How did you know?"
Anne Aldrich Augen was stunned for a moment before he seemed to have thought of something.
Then, Kieran heard running noises and the sound of the television being turned on.
The fire truck's siren that went away just a moment ago was heard again.
"Don't tell me the things that are being broadcasted on the television are your doing!"
Anne Aldrich Augen asked in shock.
"Of course not!"
Kieran replied in an affirmative tone.
"Then …"
"I have to deal with my own matters, if there's a chance, we can continue working together!"
Kieran interrupted Anne Aldrich Augen.
He hung up the phone without giving her a chance to speak.
Kieran locked the door.
Kieran didn't enter the secret room of the bookstore, instead, he pulled a chair over and sat in the corridor.
"The Winchester House that exploded."
"The nightclub that was planted with a bomb."
"The fake Gannett's test."
"Simi, the same wound as Buchelor."
"The Donna Bar that sold my whereabouts and got blown up."
…
Kieran sat on the chair, muttering to himself.
He was organizing the information he got.
He tried his best to remove the unnecessary information, leaving only the most useful ones.
In the end, Kieran muttered softly.
"Donna?"
"Donna!"
