"No matter who it is, it’s someone from the Whites doing it; we might as well go to the Whites now, demand they release the person!" Tristan Collins spoke decisively, his words laced with command, instantly raising the tension in the room.
Alexander Foster spoke up, "Mr. Collins, if you don’t want to listen, you may leave."
Tristan’s face changed, and he had no choice but to swallow back everything he wanted to say.
Alex glanced at the document and said, "Are you suggesting, Milton White is in cahoots with my mother-in-law?"
Heijii’s eyes brightened as he chuckled, "Mr. Foster is astute, that’s exactly my suspicion. Boss, you think the same, don’t you?"
"Look, Madam handed over everything to you before she left, clearly having thought everything through in advance. Plus, Milton White always had a really good relationship with Madam. You’ve told me she treated him like a son; he shouldn’t have any reason to hurt Madam."
Chloe’s gaze was faint as she pondered for a moment, then said, "Right now, none of these are important. What’s important is that we need to know my mother’s current location. Is there a lead on this?"
"I know, at the beginning, I didn’t think Madam’s departure was orchestrated by Milton White. I thought he only found out recently, but after a thorough investigation, I realized he’s the wolf that’s been hidden the deepest."
As Heijii spoke, he presented other photographs: "These two photos were sent to me by my people in the last few days. They have been keeping surveillance near the White’s residence according to my instructions.
"Look at these people in the silver uniforms."
Chloe’s gaze swept over them and suddenly sharpened, "They’re robots from Blue Power Enterprise."
"Yes, these people have been attacking the Mutated People to protect many lately. It seems they were quietly arranged by Milton White."
He added, puzzled, "Boss, what exactly is Milton White trying to do? Why does it seem like he’s good sometimes and bad at others?"
"Could it really be because of a split personality?"
Tristan became anxious, "Never mind that, just tell me straight, have you found my wife?"
All three looked at Heijii.
Heijii, who originally intended to describe everything from the beginning, seeing the urgency, went straight to the result, "Haven’t found her, but there’s a lead!"
The light in Tristan’s eyes dimmed.
"Following Milton White’s trail down, including Hans White, I checked them too, and finally discovered that each year, these two set aside a few days to go to a certain place within the Mount Cheraton area, called Silverton."
"This Silverton is known for its poverty. The number of people in the villages there is dwindling, mostly old people and left-behind children, and the place is underdeveloped. It’s not a tourist destination either. The fact that they go there every year means there’s something fishy."
He continued, "I had people inquire locally, and some locals claimed they saw Hans White and his son; they also mentioned that every time they visited, they would head into the mountain but never stay in the village. Tell me, since there are supposedly no houses in the mountain, could it be that they are going there to camp?"
Tristan insisted, "There must be a hidden chamber in that mountain, send someone to investigate immediately!"
Chloe asked Heijii, "What else?"
"I sent people to secretly check that mountain; they scoured every valley and found nothing out of the ordinary. I must have overlooked something, which is why I decided, you should go in person, Boss. With your hearing, you should be able to uncover something.
"The actions of my people below are too conspicuous and might startle the snake."
Tristan frowned, "Why would your hearing be any good?"
Heijii smirked, "Mr. Collins, our boss not only has the ability to hear over great distances, but her nose can also smell things from miles away. Didn’t you use to consider that an ominous sign, sir? Have you forgotten?"
