Chapter 827 We Will Not Harm You
A momentter, Thalia ventured, “If I''m not mistaken... the man''s name is Doggo?”
As soon as she had said that, Anthony and Miguel both wore skeptical expressions on their faces.
“Doggo? You''re certain?” Miguel asked incredulously.
Who would name himself such? Even dogs have proper names nowadays. Why would he regress and
use a dog''s name for himself?
At that, Thalia frowned. “Wait a moment. Let me rack my brain for a bit...” With her lovely brows knitted
together, she mulled it over solemnly. Some time passed before she abruptly remembered the name.
“Oh yes, the man''s name is Diego!”
“Diego? Are you absolutely sure?” Anthony''s eyes were fixed on her.
“Yeah, it''s Diego, all right. I remember I even investigated him back then and once saw a photo of him!”
Thalia asserted.
Anthony shifted his gaze to theptop screen. It so happened that it disyed the information Miguel
found, a picture of a man holding a gun. Seeing that, he immediately turned it to face Thalia. “Is this the
man?”
Thalia leaned forward for a closer look. In the next heartbeat, she mmed her hand on the table.
“Yes, it''s him!”
“Are you really sure, Thalia?” Anthony queried, afraid that she might have gotten things mixed up in her
mind.
“I''m a hundred percent sure because this was the photo I saw at that time!” Thalia enunciated.
Hearing that, Anthony instantly turned theptop back to face himself. “Got it!” After he had said that,
his fingers flew across the keyboard. In no time, he found some leads on Diego.
“Gotcha!” he crowed.
At once, Miguel crowded over. “What did you find?”
“There''s not much on him, only this portrait photo of him that was taken inadvertently... Eh, wait. That''s
not right. He seems to have been arrested when hemitted a crime two years ago. Coincidentally,
he''s imprisoned right here!” While saying that, Anthony swung his gaze to Miguel and Thalia.
Thalia sat across from them and did not crowd over for a look, but her eyes narrowed a fraction when
she glimpsed the look in his eyes. “What are you up to now?”
Anthony held her gaze. “Thalia, you must have some connections here as well, right?”
“Don''t tell me you want to go—”
“Yup!” Anthony interjected before she could even finish her utterance, his eyes on her glinting with
sheer determination.
Thalia inhaled deeply. “It''s not difficult to make arrangements for that, but is there a point in doing so?”
“I can''t tell for sure, but I know we''ll definitely gain something by going there!” Anthony maintained.
A slight frown marred Thalia''s countenance. Defeated by his prating stare, she finally shot to her
feet irritably. “Got it! I''ll go and make the arrangements right away!”
“Can you make it today?” Anthony asked.
Jerking her head back, Thalia red at him. “Why don''t you just ask for an immediate meeting?”
“That works, too! I can leave anytime!”

“Argh!”
“I believe that it''s undoubtedly a trivial matter, considering your capabilities!” Anthony eximed.
Since he had ttered her such, there was no reason for Thalia not to unleash her capabilities.
Sweeping a gaze over him, she boasted, “Well, you''re right. It''s indeed a trivial matter!” With that said,
she walked away with her phone in hand.
Anthony shared a look with Miguel, upon which Miguel wondered, “Is she really that powerful?”
“Are you looking down on Darz Ace?” Anthony retorted.
The instant Miguel heard that, he bobbed his head. “Ah, that''s true!”
“Perhaps you can consider joining Darz?” Anthony drawled.
However, Miguel promptly declined, “Forget it. I''m scared Dave would kill me!”
“Were you not scared Mr. Dave would kill you when you joined my team, then?” Anthony countered.
“That''s different. Speaking of that, I acknowledge you alone. Besides, Dave treats you differently.
You''re his best friend''s son, so he won''t have any objections if I join your team. But if I join Darz,
it''d be another story altogether!” Miguel exined. Although he had aspirations and dreams, he also
had his bottom line. At the end of the day, there were some rules he would never break.
Eyeing the man, Anthony said nothing further. He shifted his gaze to theptop. Nheless, a ton of
conjectures were already ying in his mind then. Just as his thoughts were running wild, Thalia
returned.
She walked right up to him and dered, “Let''s go.”
Upon hearing that, Anthony raised his eyes to her. “You''ve made the arrangements?”
“How could I disappoint you when you''ve already praised me to the skies?” Thalia riposted.
At the confirmation, Anthony swiftly stood up and put theptop away. Beside him, Miguel stammered,
“C-Can I go?”
“Who''s going to drive if you don''t go?”
When Miguel heard that, he quickly rushed forward in delight to help carry Anthony''s bag. “Allow me,
Master!”
Anthony shot him a look. “You''re growing increasingly tactful!”
“Of course!”
Despite Anthony''s remark, he did not release his hold on the bag. “I''ll carry it myself. I''m not in the habit
of having someone else handle myptop.”
Miguel knew that every hacker had their own habits. Moreover, theirptops were their core
possession. Hence, it was only natural that Anthony was reluctant to allow others to touch hisptop.
For that reason, he did not insist.
As they were gearing up to set out, Benjamin and Denise walked out of the house. “You''re all going out,
Tony?”
Only when Anthony caught sight of them did he remember about them. “Yeah, we''re going out to settle
something. Would you both like to tag along?”
ncing over her shoulder, Denise exchanged a look with Benjamin.
“Sure. It''s safer to stay together when we''re in a foreign ce,” Benjamin replied.
In response, Anthony nodded. “Let''s go, then.”
Thus, all of them left the house.
Shortly after, they arrived at the prison gates.
When the car came to a stop, Thalia twisted her head back. “It''s inappropriate to have so many people
going in, Miguel. As such, you''ve got to stay in the car to take care of Denise and Benjamin.”
“Okay. I''ll wait for your update in the car, then,” Miguel concurred.
Turning back, Anthony pinned his eyes on them. “We''ll be back in a jiffy!”
All three who would be staying put gave a dip of the head in acknowledgment.
Subsequently, Anthony and Thalia got out of the car and headed to the prison.
While walking side by side with Thalia, Anthony asked in a whisper, “Diego agreed to a meeting?”
“He has no say in it!” Thalia intoned.
Hearing that, Anthony lifted his eyes and cast a nce at her. Darz''s division of tasks had always
been distinct, so he was unfamiliar with Thalia''s job. All he knew was the existence of a set of
procedures. Following her remark, however, he suddenly realized that Darz was far more
developed than he had imagined. At the very least, their influence extended as far as the prison.
Without further ado, the two of them entered the prison building.
While they sat there and waited, the door swung open. On the heels of that, the man known as Diego
walked out.
There were manacles around his wrists and ankles. When he stepped out, he scrutinized Anthony and
Thalia, making it evident that they wereplete strangers to him.
Thalia waved at him with her eyes trained on him. “Mr. Diego!”
The man named Diego nced back over his shoulder before sitting down across from them.
“Who are you two?” Diego demanded.
A faint smile tugged at Thalia''s lips, and an elusive gleam glinted in her alluring eyes. “We''re naturally
your friends!”
At that, Diego snorted coldly. “Friends? Are we friends or enemies?”
Staring straight at him, Anthony reassured, “You don''t need to worry. We only came here to seek you
out to ask you some questions. We won''t do anything to harm you!”
