Chapter 98 Lunatic

George was an archetypal crime lord.

The underworld was a place where all kinds of illegal dealings happened.

In theory, there was almost nothing their wide and tangled network could not uncover.

Compared to assassins, who at least followed certain rules, George and his crew were the true renegades.

He acted purely on impulse, with almost no sense of morality to guide him.

A killer might have a reason or a price for taking a life; being in a good mood or a bad one could both become excuses to kill.

Just by looking at him, Maya felt a cold shiver travel through her.

Thinking about it, she found herself wondering how Lawrence was doing lately.

But she definitely had no desire to get involved with dangerous people like George. “Can I go now? All the other kids have gone home.”

Maya resisted the urge to run, dragged out her words, and tried her best to act clueless.

George watched her hopeful face, then glanced at the empty wrapper in her hands.

The dark, threatening aura from before seemed to fade a little; he tilted his head as though considering something.

“All right,” he drawled, finally relenting. “I’ll let you go.”

He lifted his hand out of habit and messed up Maya’s hair, but what he said next reflected his warped thinking.

“Since I didn’t kill you today, you’d better thank me.”

Maya was at a loss for words.

What are you, some emperor? Am I supposed to be grateful just for staying alive?

Maya had plenty of complaints she wanted to voice, but in the end she held them back, quickly got into the car, and shut the door.

Only after leaning out the window and watching George drive off did Maya finally breathe out in relief.

Maya immediately recounted what had just happened. “I ran into a complete psycho just now. He grabbed me, said a bunch of strange things for no reason, then took a sandwich and left.”

Alfred paused for a moment. “A homeless guy?”

For once, the siblings oddly ended up thinking along the same lines.

“Next time, wait and come out with me,” Alfred said. He casually removed the bug from her, slipped it into his pocket, and added in a calm voice, “Don’t wander around alone again.”

“I know,” Maya replied. “Next time, I will.”

George listened in, the corner of his lips curling upward as he heard the little girl on the other end of the earpiece chatting about how a crazy person had stolen her sandwich right outside the school gate.

After finishing her lively explanation, the girl did not forget to sweetly call someone else “big brother.” So this little brat had more than just that obedient younger brother at home. She had another brother too. He was still thinking about it lazily when the sound in his earpiece suddenly stopped.

It was not static. Not interference.

Just a crisp, sudden silence.

George tugged at the corner of his lips and gave a knowing, indifferent smile.

He had been discovered.

And they had removed his bug.

Quick hands. Quite vigilant as well.

George was not the kind of creep who planted bugs on every random person he met. The only reason he casually placed one on her was because the child seemed oddly familiar

He just could not remember where he had seen her before.

Whatever.

He would think about it next time they crossed paths.

Anyway, he planned to linger around Harmony International School for a while longer and settle a score with Toby.

Ever since he could remember, Alfred had encountered all sorts of unusual people.

A crude little bug like that was not anything impressive.

With a single squeeze, he crushed it into useless fragments.

That man’s behavior was completely unpredictable.

There was probably something wrong with his mind.

“I wonder what Mom made for dinner tonight.”

Maya swallowed and said, “I really want meat.”

The two of them were thinking about entirely different things. While Maya focused on dinner, Alfred kept turning one question over in his head. “What was that guy who asked you for the sandwich like?”

“Pretty terrible.”

Stealing a child’s sandwich? Completely shameless.

“His personality was awful too. He even said some crazy stuff about having his little brother executed or something.”

Alfred, meanwhile, wondered if one of his own brothers had been responsible.

But his eldest brother was gentle by nature. There was no way he would do something like that.

As for George…

Well, George could be a bit foolish at times, but no matter how clueless someone was, they still would not snatch a sandwich from a child outside a school gate.

After considering every possibility, he reached the same conclusion.

A lunatic. Definitely a lunatic.

He really needed to watch over Maya more carefully.

At the same time, in another part of the city.

Night had already set in. Stars shimmered across the sky.

Lawrence sat quietly by the window, reflecting on everything he had done over the past year.

He was not foolish.

His childhood had not been easy, which had forced him to grow up early, becoming sharp and perceptive.

After his rebirth, he had quietly begun gathering information.

The upper class was vast and deeply intertwined, its network flowing like hidden currents. To make use of it, he had to unravel it piece by piece.

Thinking about it, he realized he had to thank that peculiar assassin named Alfred.

That man had almost no sense of secrecy.
