Chapter 988


    Chapter 998 He Is No Match For Me


    Only after Neera was sound asleep did Jean quietly slip out.


    Just as he was about to return to his room, he sawn rushing over to him.


    Upon seeing Jean, the assistant opened his mouth to begin his report.


    With a slight frown, Jean gestured for him to be quiet. He nced at Neera’s room before heading


    toward the next-door guest room.


    Only after entering the room did he report with a grave expression, “Mr. Beauvort, there has been a


    change in the actions of Storm and Cloud.”


    Jean’s eyes flickered when he heard that. “What change?” he asked coldly.


    “Previously, we thought Asher was audacious enough to run a ck market in a ce like Kingsview,


    acting like a local tyrant. However, TorrentCloud infiltrated their system and discovered it was all just a


    facade. The so- called ck market headquarters is actually a massive underground casino. The


    amount of money circting within is incredibly terrifying, around tens of billions daily. It’s a huge


    operation, but it isn’t the headquarters!”


    Upon hearing the news, ayer of frost seemed to veil over Jean’s eyes, as cold and sharp as a


    winter’s night.


    “So it seems we’ve all been yed by Asher.”


    His voice carried a hint of coldness.


    Upon hearing that,n could not help but break out in a cold sweat.


    “Yes, Mr. Beauvort… I’m very sorry. It was an oversight in my investigation, and I almost made a slip-


    up.”

    A veil of gloominess descended upon Jean’s face, and the air pressure around him dropped rmingly.


    Even though he had not said a word or uttered a single reproach,n’s heart was filled with such dread


    that it felt as if it would leap out of his throat. He hurriedly tried to remedy the situation.


    “Despite the previous mistake, our men have traced Asher’s whereabouts. He is not in Kingsview but


    has frequently been spotted in Huxville in the southwest. This area borders some rather chaotic foreign


    countries. We suspect this might be the real headquarters of the ck market!”


    Jean’s gaze was intense, an icy glint lurking within his dark pupils.


    “That ce is quite a distance from here.”


    “Yes. Our men are still searching, striving to pinpoint the exact location as soon as possible. If there are


    any updates, we will report immediately.”


    After all the effort spent setting up the game, who would have thought it would all end up being a futile


    endeavor?


    Naturally, Jean was not satisfied with such an oue.


    However, he remained level-headed, understanding that this battle with the ck market was not


    something that could be resolved overnight.

    “Good, Nathaniel has been operating in that area for years. It’s practically his familiar battleground. If


    Asher dares to venture there, he’s courting death.”


    Thest two words were particrly emphasized by him.


    His chiseled profile appeared even more cold and aloof under the shadows where the bedside


    lamplight could


    not reach.


    “Got it,” Jean responded indifferently, deciding to set this matter aside for now.


    The minute Neera got out of bed the following morning, she received a call from King.


    She quickly answered the call, asking expectantly, “Well? Do we have a result?”


    On the other end of the line, King’s voice sounded heavy with exhaustion, as if he had not slept all


    night. “Yes.”


    Neera’s heart leaped with joy. “Really? Is this surveince video edited andpiled?”


    King responded with a soft hum as he stretched his arms outnguidly.


    “This surveince footage had been expertly tampered with. The post-production editing is nearly


    wless. I might not have noticed it if it weren’t for my sharp-eyed mentee. I spent an entire night


    struggling with this d*mn video that I almost didn’t recover.”


    Neera was taken aback. “Even you find it difficult. How is that…”


    “Nothing is impossible.”


    King’s attitude was quite positive. “Because the other party hired an expert, it took me a little more


    effort.”


    As he spoke, he let out a sneer.


    “Judging by the style, I believe it’s the work of the hacker ranked third on the leaderboard, codenamed


    Hunter”. I’ve crossed paths with him several times before and am fairly familiar with his style. I’m pretty


    sure I’m not mistaken. This guy always takes money to do dirty deeds, all against his conscience. He’s


    ruthless and cold- hearted. But no matter how capable he is, he’s no match for me.”


    Upon hearing that, Neera breathed a sigh of relief. “What about the original video?”


    “I’ve sent it to your email. I’ve highlighted the areas with issues. I didn’t sleep all night, and I’m dead


    tired. I’m going to sleep now I’ll be in touch if anythinges up. Bye.”


    With that, he hung up the phone directly.


    Before Neera even had a chance to thank him, she heard the sound of the disconnected call and could


    not help but chuckle.


    It seems like this guy is really too tired to function.


    She put down her phone and headed straight for the study. Opening her email, she checked the


    restored surveince footage.


    Sure enough, the surveince footage was crystal. le ar Indeed someone bud
