If they managed to capture Lindon, they could interrogate him and find out who the person
impersonating the Smiling Grim Reaper was.
Nash nodded. “If Chief Zink agrees to mobilize so many inspection officers, we’ll be able to arrest him
tonight!”
Angelica took her phone out and began making calls.
Dane shook his head ruefully. “Looks like we’ll have to spend the entire night working!”
When he finished his sentence, one of the inspection officers standing beside him asked, “Chief
Suthend, did Chief White… mention Lindon’s name?”
Dane snapped out of his reverie when he heard that.
He turned to look at Angelica in shock.
However, she was already on the phone with Chief Zink.
“Search Mount Royal? Angelica, are you insane? Do you know howrge that mountain is?”
Henderson raised his voice.
“It’s what Nash wants!”
Angelica had guessed that Henderson would not agree to what she suggested.
Hence, she brought Nash into the conversation.
Henderson immediately switched tones and said hesitantly, “It’s after hours now. It’ll take me another
two hours to summon everyone back to work and head over to Mount Royal… Two hours would be
more than enough for him to vanish, wouldn’t it?”
Angelica said hesitantly, “Well… should we just let the murderer run free? Lindon is the murderer!”
“Lindon Carter?”
“Didn’t he die from gunshot wounds three years ago?”
Henderson was shocked to his very core.
Angelica added, “He’s not dead…”
Henderson drew in a deep breath before saying, “I’ll get in touch with someone from the Jonford
government and set things straight. Something about this is fishy.
“I saw the bullet travel through Lindon’s brain with my very eyes all those years ago, and the medical
examiner who pronounced him dead was a friend of mine who didn’t notice anything out of the
ordinary!”
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Angelica felt all her hope vanish.
It would be toote by the time Chief Zink finished making all his phone calls.
Nash heaved a rueful sigh.
Just then, Nash’s phone began vibrating in his pocket.
When he took it out, he realized it was Hera calling him.
However, Melody’s voice rang out when he answered the phone.
“Nash, Hera has been taken away!
“They had two warriors in the Profound Reality Realm among them…
Finn, Ken, and I did our best, but we couldn’t defeat them!”
Melody’s voice sounded both frantic and slightly weak.

“Do you know who they are?” Nash asked while frowning.
“No, and they requested that you go to Tranquil Retreat!” Melody
Ladded worriedly, “I’m afraid they might be working for the Klein family!”
Nash hung up the phone and turned to Flo, “Please take me to Tranquil Retreat!”
Flo did not say anything in reply. He merely turned and began walking to where his car was parked.
Nash hurried after him.
The fact that Hera had been taken away now could only mean two things.
The first was that Dominic had hired someone to do it.
The second was that the Klein family had obtained some information.
Nash had a feeling it was more likely to be the first possibility.
Tranquil Retreat was a guesthouse in the heart of the city.
Flo sped toward the building.
The entire journey was supposed to take over an hour, but he managed to shorten it to slightly over ten
minutes.
The car pulled to a stop in front of Tranquil Retreat.
Flo asked quietly, “Do you need anything else?”
“No thanks!”
Nash answered without much thought before striding to the entrance.
The cold look in Flo’s eyes slowly softened as he watched Nash walk away.
When he could no longer see Nash, he averted his gaze and began making phone calls. “Gather all
your men and rent several helicopters that can circle Mount Royal!”
Nash walked over to the reception desk in Tranquil Retreat.
Before he even said anything, the receptionist smiled and asked, “Are you Mr. Nash Calcraft?”
Nash nodded. “Yes, I am…”
The receptionist ced a keycard between them. “They’re waiting for you in Room 506!”
Nash grabbed the keycard and headed toward the elevators.
