Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 415 The Arrival Of The Mysterious Helpers

~Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.

Elric's fingers drummed in a steady rhythm.

Everyone had their heads lowered, uncountable thoughts racing through their minds.

And in a corner were several police officers tasked with protecting Elric, as well as intercepting any phone calls that might be of importance.

Typically, Elric didn't like working with police officers when dealing with matters.

But seeing as this problem had turned into a national one, his safety and the opportunity to get any vital information was too important for them to miss. 

You must know that any news from Elric will also help the other kidnapped idols. 

It wasn't just Elric who had police tailing and watching over him. 

The parents of those idols also had people beside them. 

"Mr. Elric. We are obliged to report this matter to our superiors." One of the officers stated. 

Anything related to the case, be it useful or not, must reach their superior's ears. 

Hmmmm... 

Elric slowly lifted his head. "As you wish."

The more, the better. 

This way, even if his people fail to protect him, others would do the work for him, no?

Elric slowly rose to his feet, wearing his coat and preparing to head out. 

As planned, he had to meet them at the rendezvous point close to the gravesite first. 

And because the so-called caller might be a threat, they must clear out all civilians around, including bloggers and news reporters. 

The mysterious caller said he was innocent. But until he can receive confirmation, why should he drop his guard?

Hmph!

Unless he gets confirmation, then forget it!

RING~

Speak of the devil. 

Everyone else froze in their tracks, with several others rushing back to their seats and placing their headphones on. 

They clicked several bottoms and gave Elric the go-ahead. 

Elric took deep breaths, seeing the unidentifiable caller iD. 

He calmly picked up his phone and listened attentively. And soon, his eyes widened only briefly. 

"Wiggins... Are you sure you can vouch for him?"

[On my life, Elric. You've heard of the renowned digging machine, Old Gia from the east, haven't you?]

Elric nodded slightly. Of course he heard of him. And he had also seen him twice from a distance too.

.

Old Gia...

Elric didn't know him personally, but the man's character was well-known to many.

He was lethal but straightforward, hated cutting corners, and didn't like tricks or foul play.

He knew a lot about Old Gia because, as a powerful person, when traveling worldwide, one must know the list of people to not anger.

He has visited many countries in the past. So how could he not know the powerful people living in those regions? 

As they say, Ignorance was a crime that could lead to more catastrophes. 

When on someone's turf, you must always be vigilant, even if he is stinking rich.

Of course, he would never go looking for trouble. But he also wasn't one to sit back when bullied.

Alright.

Elric's eyes flickered. "Wiggins... Since you're confident, then I'll trust you this once. And... Thank you."

[Anytime. You're my good brother. So how can I let our little lady stay lost? I am her godfather, after all, no?]

"Hmmm.... I'll be seeing you soon."

~Tut.

The Call disconnected, and several people let out collective sighs. 

Elric's men knew who Wiggins was. 

In the military, who didn't know this man? He was particularly famous within the northern military Fort. 

Elric trusted him mightily. He met Wiggins when they were both teens. And since then, they've stayed close. 

Elric was grateful, thinking Wiggins pulled out all his cards to invite specialists to handle the matter. 

He swore that once he reunited with his daughter, he would give Wiggins a big gift. 

Hey... That 11th-century antique in his most prized collection will have to go out.

Every time Wiggins visited his private collection room, the bastard:s eyes always landed on it.

Like that, Elric was ready to pour his gratitude out for Wiggins, not knowing the mysterious guests had reached out to help on their own. 

Lucky Wiggins had won a treasure for nothing. 

(^∆^)

.

Elric was in a slightly better mood, listening to Wiggins' confirmation. 

Now, he couldn't wait to meet up with these strangers from the east. 

The police officers were about to report matters when their superiors reached out to them first. 

In the end, the officers nodded tactfully, silently following behind Elric. 

This matter keeps getting weirder and weirder. 

How does the mysterious person know the idols are still alive on the gravesite? 

They have

When the call came in, it was already late afternoon. 

And in a blink of an eye, the hours had turned, and the day slowly faded to darkness. 

9:48 PM.

Everyone heard a familiar yet unfamiliar sound approaching above.

Whoop. Whoop. Whoop!~

A stream of choppers was fast approaching.

Was it them?
