Yvonne blinked at him, and then realization struck her. Hey, this mister’s name is Kingsley Nicholson,
and Leroy’s boss is Mr. Nicholson. Could he be the mysterious boss I’ve heard so much about? But
he’s so young! She clenched her fists and promised that she would study hard to get into a good
college. Even if Kingsley was not the mysterious Mr. Nicholson, she still had to become a better woman
if she wanted to stand by his side.
At this moment, someone came knocking. “Are you there, Leoric? It’s me, Bobby!”
Leoric stood up. “The landlord’s here.”
A man in a tank top, shorts, and slippers came in. “What’s wrong, Leoric? You sound like you’re in a
hurry.”
Kingsley had come out as well.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeoric pointed at him. “My boss wants to ask you something.”
Bobby was surprised Leoric would call Kingsley boss, and he quickly got serious. “There’s nothing I
don’t know about the urban village, sir. Ask away!”
Kingsley did not waste any time and asked, “Did two guys rent one of your houses lately?”
“Yeah. They’re from out of town. Got a weird accent too, but there’s three of them, not two.” Bobby
said, “My place is a mini warehouse. There’s no bedroom or any walls separating the space, so I told
them it would be hard for three guys to stay in that place.”
“Wait, there’s three of them?” Leoric asked. “But I’ve only seen two.”
Kingsley cocked his eyebrow. So, someone has been hiding instead of going around with their
partners. He felt relieved he did not alert the enemy, or one of them would have escaped under his
nose. “I see.” Kingsley said, “This has nothing to do with you, so pretend this never happened.”
“Of course. I’ll pretend none of this happened. I’ve never met you either.” Bobby knew what Kingsley
was getting at.
After Bobby was gone, Leoric said, “Should I get my men and capture them, Mr. Nicholson?”
“They’re no ordinary guys. You guys aren’t a match for them.” Kingsley frowned. “And one of them is in
the dark. This is tricky.”
Yvonne noticed his dilemma, and she said, “Why don’t I scout the area out? I’m just a girl. They won’t
put up their guard around me.” She was smart. She had no idea who Kingsley was trying to catch, but
she knew it was important.
Kingsley said, “No. It’s too dangerous. I can’t let you take that risk.”
“But you said one of them is in hiding, right? I’ll pretend I got to the wrong place, check out how many
of them are in the house, and then I’ll come back. It’ll be fine.” Kingsley wanted to refuse, so she

Kingsley frowned, but he said nothing. He knew Yvonne was right. The best way was for Yvonne to
confirm the number of enemies in the house before taking the next step. “Okay, but don’t worry. I won’t
let anything happen to you.” He looked at the time. “It’s still early. We’ll move once it gets dark.”
Yvonne gave him a military salute, feeling excited. “I won’t let you down!”
Kingsley patted her head with a smile. “You’re looking like a heroine now. I’ll introduce Paige to you
once you get into college. You girls will have a lot to talk about.”
Yvonne’s face was beet red, but Kingsley did not notice it and walked aside to call Lancer. “Lancer? It’s
me. Tell Hades to bring two operating squads and come to the urban village. Wear casual attire and
move separately.”
Dusk descended a while later. Hades had come with thirty men, and they infiltrated the urban village
without anyone knowing. Aside from the support team, all the soldiers were closing in on Upstream
Village from the east, west, south, north, southeast, northeast, southwest, and northwest.
