Chapter 657 Dont want her to know (1/2)

In the far distance away from the heart of Imperial, Glory was as crowded as every night. Inside one of the many private rooms in the back, Kira sat in complete silence. He would often steal a few glances at the person he had bumped into outside the restaurant.

Seeing that this person was sitting across from him without uttering a sound, he struggles a gulp. This person was usually carefree and talkative, but one should know how serious the situation is when he is quiet.

Unable to withstand the silence anymore, Kira straightens his sitting posture and force a chuckle.

”How… How have you been, Shan?”

Liu Shan held a glass filled with liquor in his hand. His eyes blinked at a slow pace until he heard the question. He glances at the man with long hair and he scoffs a sarcastic chuckle.

”Is that really the question you should be asking right now?”

When he left De L'amour, he spent the entire night trying to find what his boss had asked him to do. He had to admit, Kira did a good job of erasing their tracks, but it wasn't advance enough as he was still able to find them.

What surprised him was that the three men had just recently come into contact with Lu Tian and the two groups were meeting in secret.

The only thing he couldn't find out was why they were here in Imperial.

He swirls the liquor in his glass like he was drinking wine and nonchalantly tilt his head.

”Did the band Faith disband only to come to Imperial?”

Kira felt his throat tighten like something hard was stuck inside. If it had been someone else in front of him, excluding Yue Ling, he would have uttered some excuse, but in the eyes of Liu Shan, he knows that he can't.

”Well?”

Seeing that the man was not planning to answer him, Liu Shan questions again. His entire being was like a detective interrogating a suspect in a crime.

Met with this side of the assistant, Kira could only sigh deeply. He leans forward and pours himself a shot of hard liquor and drinks it in one gulp.

If he is going to answer Liu Shan, he's going to need a few drinks to calm his nerves down.

”Faith did disband from the music industry, but we didn't disband from our real career.”

Just like Yue Ling being a model to hide her identity as the designer of De L'amour and the leader of Fate, they also have their own identities.

He (Kira), Lee Shin, Qin Jun, Song Jing Li, and Park Min Lee were members of the band Faith, but only a handful of people know that it was only a cover-up.

Music is an interest they have in common, so they started the band. However, the real truth was, they are undercover agents from Chief Kim's special unit to track down criminals in the underworld.

It was also because of this that Shin lost his life.

Ending his thoughts, he pours himself another drink. He doesn't down it in one gulp, but casually drinks it.

”We're here in Imperial to work the case on Choi Li Sun.”

He didn't answer with the whole truth, but it was part of the truth.

Hearing his answer, Liu Shan frowns and stares at the man with long hair. He could see that Kira wasn't lying, but he still felt something was off. However, not digging further, he averts his eyes away.

”Choi Li Sun… Are you sure he is here?”

Before moving to Imperial, he remembers Shin was working undercover in City Z's underworld. His task was to gain Choi Li Sun's trust and then capture the man.

However, didn't they capture him? Why would he be here in Imperial?

”I thought Shin closed the case?”
