Chapter 48:


    Eddie said goodbye to Yoko Suzuki, after which he headed for theb. But all of a sudden, his phone rang; Eddie asked, "Yes?"


    A momentter, there was a beautiful woman''s voice; the caller was none other than Lupo. "Eddie. Looks like we still need another month to get back to Roon City. Please take care of yourself, besides, if you have time, can you send me my sry? Thanks."


    "Alright, I''ll send it quickly. You should also be careful." Eddie said with a nod.


    "Don''t worry, I can take care of myself. Don''t die first, okay? Wait till I get back."


    "As for Team Wolf. Christine Yamata and the other members are indeed trustworthy." Lupo said good news to Eddie.


    "That''s good. When you get back, I''ll give you a special gift." Eddie smiles; he''ll be very patient with thisdy.


    "Sophia said she wanted to go to Roon City to y with you. What do you think, Eddie?" Suddenly the Mother Wolf (Lupo/Karen) asks questions.


    A few days ago, her little girl wanted to see Eddie. So Karen asked her lover if he could apany her daughter or not.


    Eddie, who heard a specific meaning in her speech, began to answer, "Not for now; Roon City has be very unsafe these few days. You can suggest her to go somewhere safer or take a trip to the east." Eddie suggested. Indeed, these past few days, Roon City has be more dangerous; Eddie feared something terrible would happen to Sophia.


    "All right, I''ll try to persuade her. I''ll look forward to your'' special gift'' when I arrive." Lupo said in a happy tone.


    After that, they ended the call.


    Eddie came to theb shortly after; this time, he wanted to finish the weapon he was trying to assemble.


    He''ll have to bag himself with a good weapon since he''s about to be transferred to the Tactical Rescue Team. But he wasn''t sure if he would be paired with Jill''s team or not.


    A few hours passed; after the special weapon he''d made was finished, theb door suddenly opened. Ate entered with a quite reluctant expression.


    "Ate, what''s wrong?" Eddie asked with confusion to see Ate''s slightly strange attitude. Has he opened a romantic route with Ate?


    "Eddie, I''m sorry," Ate whispered.


    "Sorry? Sorry for what? What are you saying, Ate? Do you have a fever?" Eddie said as he tilted his head.


    "Eddie, I want to say something important. But, can you promise not to get angry after I tell you that?"


    Eddie crossed his arms; he replied, "Sure, I promise."


    Ate inhaled a few times, after which she continued." Just as I was reading William''s diary, it turned out that he and Albert had conspired with Spencer in the murder of Dr. Marcus in 1988."


    "I-I''m so sorry... I don''t expect my husband to even interfere in this..."


    "Oh, I see." Eddie nodded, then began packing the weapons he had assembled; at the same time, he also checked out some medicine for Suzuki.


    Seeing Eddie''s reaction, Ate was amazed. ''Is that it? Is he really not angry?''


    "Eddie, are you really not mad?"


    "Mad? There is no point in getting angry. However, many people have been involved in the murder of Uncle Marcus."


    "If I''m angry, will you divorce your husband?" Eddie said, flirting.


    "You- What are you saying?" Ate lowered her head with a shy expression.


    "What do you think? I mean, if you divorce him, maybe I''ll consider it."


    "If I mad and kill him, How do you feel next? I don''t want to make you sad, Ate."


    Hearing Eddie''s words, Ate felt moved. She can''t act about her friend''s attitude on this one.


    "Thanks... But I''ll try topensate you, I''ll do whatever you want. So, what do you want, Eddie?"


    Eddie''s smile grew wider; he walked closer to Ate. "You asked for it. Don''t regret your decision, okay?"
