Chapter 899: Chapter 325: Mistaken Target (Two-in-One Long Chapter)_4

The man dressed as a servant before him was an informant he had arranged.

Only heard the informant respectfully bow slightly and report: “Master Sam, shortly after you and several masters left, Viscount Fabien brought a tall young man here.”

“By the way, judging by Viscount Fabien’s address, this young man seems to be called Viscount Rein.”

“Hmm?”

Hearing the name ‘Rein’, everyone in the reception room was momentarily stunned.

Immediately afterward, several people showed a relieved expression and started to laugh.

“Commander, could it be that this Rein learned of the prestige of our Sam Group, and therefore asked Fabien to come to resolve the misunderstanding?” The bald strong man scratched his head and couldn’t help but laugh.

“Probably, this Rein most likely learned of our background from Fabien.” Another person nodded in agreement.

“Exactly, if it were me and I found out the opponent is backed by the Duke of Empire, I would likely choose to make peace.” Another team member seemed to think from the other perspective and nodded in agreement.

Only Garcia and Sam remained silent.

Sam frowned slightly and continued to ask the informant, “What about Dickson? Did they bring Dickson over?”

The informant didn’t hesitate and shook his head immediately, “Master Sam, among those traveling with Viscount Fabien, I didn’t see Lord Dickson.”

Sam nodded and turned to Garcia beside him and said:

“There seems to be a problem, Garcia, it will be troublesome for you to investigate right away.”

“Okay, commander.”

Garcia slightly bowed and quickly left.

The remaining three team members, led by the bald one, looked at each other, and the bald one asked puzzledly:

“Boss, do you mean the opponent isn’t here to negotiate?”

“It’s still unclear, but… if it were me, if I came to clarify a misunderstanding, I would bring Dickson along and wouldn’t continue detaining Dickson.” Sam said sternly, shaking his head.

Upon hearing Sam’s words, everyone immediately realized, yes, if they were here to yield, Dix would definitely be brought along; there’s no reason to continue holding him!

For a moment, there was silence in the reception room!

….

Less than an hour later, Garcia returned, but her expression wasn’t good.

“Commander, Dickson is still detained at the Sword Holder Mingster Branch and hasn’t been released.”

“Moreover, Rein left Mingster with the elf girl two days ago, destination unknown, I’m still asking people to inquire.”

“What, they left? Did he learn of our plan?” One person exclaimed.

“Impossible, only a few of us know about this plan.” The bald one shook his head.

“Damn! We’re screwed! We just agreed to pay ‘Earth Dragon Knight’ Hansal twice the price to hurry over, now the elf girl is gone…”

Another person slapped his leg heavily and exclaimed.

“This…”

Everyone looked at each other and fell silent.

After all, the decision to pay twice the price for ‘Earth Dragon Knight’ Hansal to arrive quickly was made by their commander personally.

However, they occasionally glanced at their commander Sam, seemingly waiting for him to make a decision.

After hearing the two pieces of bad news, Sam’s brow remained furrowed. He thought for a moment and asked, “Garcia, did you ask Fabien?”

“He accompanied Rein here; doesn’t he know Rein’s purpose for finding us?”

“I asked, but the old fox pretended to know nothing. He said Rein came that day and just asked him to help introduce us, he was unaware of Rein’s purpose.” Garcia shook her head, helplessly.

At this moment, a small gray bird flew in, chirping as it landed on Garcia’s shoulder.

“Oh? Master, the news has arrived, that was fast.”

Garcia unwrapped a note tied to the bird’s claw, quickly read out: “…. Rein… went to Meister to carry out a mission, expected to return to Mingster in a few days….”

“Fortunately, it seems the opponent doesn’t know our plan yet.”

“The money for twice the price wasn’t spent in vain!”
