?In the coffee shop, David is sitting across from a man in a suit. This man is one of the private detectives hired by David, named Adrian.


    Adrian wears sses and is tall and thin, presenting a polite and gentle demeanor. He hands a tablet to David.


    "Mr. David, please confirm if this is the person you are looking for," Adrian says. David looks at the photo of a bald man with a rugged face and immediately recognizes him as the person he''s been seeking.


    David nods with satisfaction. "Yes, it''s him." He will never forget Adolf''s face no matter how many years pass. Adrian breathes a sigh of relief upon David''s confirmation, knowing that this case has been closed.


    He continues, "Adolf is a nouveau riche. He made a fortune in coal mining a few years ago and now works in fire protection. He is currently unmarried and childless, but he keeps several mistresses." Adrian hands a file folder to David.


    "His detailed information is all in here. As for the dog you asked about, I heard that Adolf brought back a wolf hybrid yesterday from out of town, but I''m not sure if it''s the same dog you mentioned."


    David had entrusted Adrian with this task half a month ago, while Adolf''s dog was only brought back yesterday, so the information seems a bit mismatched. David takes out his phone and searches for what a "wolf hybrid" looks like and indeed, it looks exactly like the dog he remembers Adolf having. David now has a clear understanding.


    He takes the file folder and pays the remaining amount to Adrian in person. Adrian, upon receiving the money, smiles and extends his hand. "Mr. David, it''s been a pleasure working with you."


    However, David doesn''t shake his hand and says, "Hold on, I need one more favor from you."


    After David presents his request, Adrian looks hesitant. "Mr. David, this is a risky matter. Adolf has considerable influence in SJ City, and helping you acquire this informationes with its own risks."


    Without wasting words, David directly says, "Fifty thousand." Adrian immediately brightens up. "Deal!" Fifty thousand may not seem like a lot, but for Adrian, who spends his days investigating extramarital affairs, it is a substantial ie.


    Afterward, Adrian stands up and makes several phone calls outside the coffee shop. David remains patient, waiting. A few minutester, Adrian returns. "Mr. David, Adolf is about to head to a gas station in the north of the city. We should still be able to catch up if we leave now."


    David stands up and says, "Let''s go."...


    Near a gas station in the northern part of the city, Adrian''s car parks in an empty space. David sits in the passenger seat, waiting with Adrian.


    When Adrian sees a Land Rover Range Rover with the license te GJ314 entering the gas station, he immediately starts the car and follows behind. "That''s Adolf''s car," Adrian exins. The gas station is crowded with vehicles, and Adolf''s car is waiting in line at the entrance. Adrian''s car stops behind Adolf''s car.


    "Wait for me in the car," Adrian says as he opens the door. He holds a cup of c in his right hand and pretends to be making a phone call with his left hand. "Hello! Speak louder, I can''t hear you. The signal here is bad." Adrian takes a few steps forward, seemingly searching for a better signal. Just as he approaches Adolf''s vehicle, he suddenly slips and stumbles, falling near Adolf''s car.<novelsnext>I think you should take a look at </novelsnext>


    Adrian''s c sshes all over him as Adolf''s car window is open. Adrian''s fall is so natural and graceful that it seemspletely genuine, without any trace of acting. His performance easily outshines those of young actors.


    "Oh, sorry, bro, it was an ident!" Adrian quickly apologizes to Adolf inside the car.


    "Fuck your mother!" Adolf, with c all over his face, pushes open the car door and grabs Adrian by the cor. "You four-eyed brat, are you asking for death?"


    Adrian puts on a mournful face. "I''m really sorry, big brother. It was a genuine mistake. Let me wipe it off for you." Adolf ps Adrian across the face, knocking off his sses.


    "Forget about wiping, just get the hell out of here." Adolf takes off his jacket and returns to his car, muttering, "What bad luck! Running into a loser like you. If it weren''t for the surveince here, I''d teach you a lesson."


    Adrian picks up his sses and returns to the car, dejectedly covering his face.


    Back in the car, Adrian rubs his face and mutters, "Damn, this bastard is so arrogant. If it were any other time, I''d extort him." He takes out his phone and checks. "Mr. David, it''s done. I''ve ced a tracker on his car. You can now track his location in real-time on your phone."


    David looks at the red mark on Adrian''s face and finds it somewhat amusing. Adrian probably didn''t expect to be pped like that. Who would have known that Adolf could be so aggressive?


    "Thank you for your hard work. I''ll add another ten thousand," David says. Adrian instantly feels much better upon hearing these words. "Mr. David, you''re truly generous." Although Adrian is curious about why David wants to track Adolf''s car, he doesn''t ask further.


    People in their line of work, they do their job and take the money, never sticking their noses where they don''t belong. At this moment, Adolf drives into the gas station, fills up his tank, and, perhaps due to a bad mood, throws the money out the car window as he pays, then speeds off.


    The gas station attendant stares at the money on the ground, momentarily frozen, her outstretched hand suspended in mid-air. After hesitating for a moment, she crouches down and picks up the money one by one. When she stands up, her eyes are slightly reddened, tears welling up. She turns away to wipe her tears and continues serving the next customer.


    Adrian in the car shakes his head. "Tsk, this guy is a real beast." David nods in agreement. "Indeed." Adolf''s arrogant and domineering behavior is just like in the previous world. If anything, he has be even worse after losing the restraints ofw in the apocalypse.


    ording to people in Adolf''s base, this ruthless Adolf treats others as less than human, using his dog to bully and dominate others, both men and women. In his base, he''s like a feudal lord. Anyone below him who dares to offend him even slightly risks being chopped up and fed to the dog.


    After bidding farewell to Adrian, David returns home. He checks his phone and sees that Adolf seems to be heading to his ownpany. The reason for tracking his car is because Adolf owns several properties in SJ City.


    Time is running out, and to avoidplications during , David ns to eliminate Adolf tonight. Tomorrow is the day the apocalypse arrives, and SJ City will descend into chaos, making it difficult to find Adolf. What David is truly concerned about is that fire-type mutant dog
