“You’d better be careful, I’ll catch you sooner or later!” Jess shouted at the back of Crow’s head while she walked out of the passage.
However, Crow did not pay any attention to him. She did not even take his words to heart.
How could a top-tier thief be caught with evidence?
The guard who said that will sooner or later not be able to wait his whole life. Jess looked at Crow’s back dejectedly as it disappeared into the passage.
When he saw the mess in the room, his mood was slightly lifted.
“At least we destroyed the Ancient City of Life’s Thieves Union. Today is a meaningful day!”
“Is that so? Then congratulations. I’ve found my things. I’m leaving.
“By the way, there should be a lot of stolen goods in the big iron gate behind. Maybe all the things that have been stolen in the Ancient City of Life in the past few years are inside.
“Of course, some of the things might have been converted into money. If you take these back, your Public Security Office should be able to get a lot of ‘profit’.”
As Mike spoke, he walked past Jess with Timus with the intention of leaving.
Jess glared at Mike’s back and said, “Our Law and Order Bureau will not be corrupted! All the stolen money will be handed over!”
Of course, this sentence did not receive any response from Mike either.
With the remaining three of them, the originally quiet base of the Thieves Union became even quieter.
Deep in thought, Jess muttered to himself.
“But then again, that human named F*ck is really strong.
“I didn’t even see his movements clearly, and Baldy was killed by him…”
At this point, Jess was slightly stunned. He suddenly remembered something and hurriedly ran out of the room to look at the passage.
However, Mike had already disappeared.
Jess gritted his teeth and punched the wall in frustration. The wall was not damaged at all. Instead, his fist was bruised from the impact.
However, he could not care less about the insignificant pain.
“Damn it, Captain Abu and Senior Sally were killed by F*ck!”
He only realized now that Badly died the same way as the two guards. Even if he could not catch any movements from Mike, their throats had also been cut open. Even without any evidence, anyone could deduce that Mike initiated the kill.
The two guards and Badly had definitely died at the hands of the same person.
“It’s definitely him! I must catch him!!” Jess gritted his teeth and swore to himself, but right now, he still had a lot of things to do.
At the bottom of the list, he had to deal with the stolen money from the Thieves Union. Perhaps he might not have enough time to do anything else for the next few days.
…
After coming out from the sewers, Timus brushed the dirt off his body and asked, “Teacher, where are we going to go next?”
“Where else can we go? Of course, we’re going to the tavern,” Mike said matter-of-factly.
“To the tavern?! Why?” Timus was confused. He had clearly agreed to meet Crow at the tavern the next morning. Why would he go to the tavern now? It was not dark yet!
Mike did not waste any time. He explained as he walked in the direction of the tavern,
“Things like secret signals can only be understood 100% by both parties if they agree in advance.
“But when there are no agreements, we can only rely on assumptions.”
“What do you mean?” Timus quickly followed Mike’s footsteps and asked.
“Why do you think I made an appointment with Crow to meet at the tavern tomorrow morning?” Mike threw a question to Timus instead.
