"Do you know where Lu'er is?"
Ronald had not expected R'lyeh to start the conversation with such a proposal.
With the spy leader's capabilities, he could not be unaware of what Lu'er meant to him, and he would certainly not joke about such matters.
Was he really trying to be friendly?
Or was it that... the other party had set a trap with this issue in mind?
"..."
R'lyeh seemed to sense Ronald's suspicion.
The spy leader simply dragged Edy outside while giving Ronald a relaxed smile and said,
"It just so happens I know a thing or two about her."
"We can talk about it on the way."
Ronald glanced at the factory behind him and could tell from the sounds that the three investigators were still cleaning up the scene. Likely due to R'lyeh's intervention, the others, not far away, had not noticed what was happening outside.
With a slight sigh, Ronald followed R'lyeh out of the factory.
"I just hope..."
"that things go smoothly tonight..."
