    Chapter 122 Going to Chesterburg


    He smiled faintly, nodding, “Don’t worry, the police in Chesterburg have basically located the


    whereabouts of Thomas and Ryan. Once it’s confirmed with Ezra tonight, our people will immediately


    order the arrest of Thomas and Ryan.”


    I responded affirmatively, thought of Owen, and asked, “Will Owen also be on the ship tonight?”


    Lucas nodded, “Hmm, he had already gone to Chesterburg a couple of days ago. Our people have


    been following him, but we haven’t ordered an arrest yet, for fear of alerting the enemy.”


    I nodded, he had told me about this before.


    After some thought, I said, “Regarding Ezra, you guys don’t have enough evidence. Even if you find


    him, you can’t arrest him!”


    He nodded, “Yes, but at least this clue is a significant breakthrough for us. As long as we know who


    Ezra is, and that he is active in both domestic and border areas all year round, it won’t be difficult for


    our people to find his criminal evidence once his location is locked down.”


    Indeed, that was the case.


    After a four-hour flight, by the time wended, the sky in Chesterburg had already grown somewhat


    dim. Fortunately, the temperature here was much higher than on the maind.


    Many people were still wearing short sleeves, and those who were slightly cold just put on a jacket.


    When I wasing, Alexander had checked the weather forecast and asked my mother to prepare


    light clothes for me.

    Upon leaving the airport, Lucas led me to a ck sedan.


    After the ck car dropped us off at a star-rated hotel, Lucas and I changed our clothes and went


    straight to the beach. By the time we arrived, there were already quite a few people on the ship. The


    huge ship was brightly lit and bustling with noise.


    As night fell, the ship slowly sailed out to sea. The party was attended by many people, mostly wealthy


    individuals from all over the world. As long as one had money and ability, they could enter.


    Lucas and I entered the cabin, looking at the crowd of people packed inside. I couldn’t help but feel a


    headacheing on as I said to him, “With so many people, it’s simply impossible for us to find


    anyone.”


    Lucas smiled and handed me two tickets, saying, “We’re not here to look for someone.”


    I was confused, “If we’re not looking here, then why did wee here?”


    He gave a faint smile, “Once the money is out, it’s natural toe here for a visit, to broaden one’s


    horizons.” Saying this, he gestured to one side.


    After his reminder, I noticed that the people around were a mixed bag. There were quite a few slot


    machines and some game machines I had never seen before in the cabin. There were also things for


    sale, not only some beverages and pastries, but also some strange candies, basically things I had


    never seen before.


    Out of curiosity, I couldn’t help but take a few more nces. The candy-seller was a middle-aged man,


    so thin that his cheeks were sunken. Noticing my gaze, he walked over to me, handed me a box of


    candy, and said with a smile, “Beautifuldy, a box of Happy Pills is thirty-five thousand.”

    I was surprised at the high price of the candy, and couldn’t help but take a few more nces. Lucas


    returned the candy to the thin man, saying out loud, “She doesn’t need it.”


    Seeing the stern look on Lucas’s face, the man couldn’t help but shrink back, but he did leave with the


    candy.


    I didn’t understand, looking at Lucas, I asked, “What is that? Why is it so expensive?”


    A box for thirty-five thousand, it didn’t seem like anything luxurious.


    Lucas nced over and said, “It’s not any kind of candy, just stimnts under a different name. Those


    gambling machines and candies are probably all used to exploit some down-and-out tycoons.”


    I listened in confusion, questioning, “A down-and-out tycoon?”

    “Hmm!” Lucas nodded, took a look around, and then led me towards the stairs in the cabin, saying as


    we walked, “There are quite a few wealthy people ind who have been led to ruin in this ce, their


    families destroyed and their lives ruined. Yet they are unwilling to continue in such a state of destitution,


    so they take the little money they have left ande to this chaotic ce to try their luck.”


    I roughly understood some of it and followed him all the way up to the fifth floor. The ship was


    enormous, and the interior was exceptionally luxurious. To get to the fifth floor, one needed a lot of


    money to enter the cabin. After all, wealthy people didn’t want to enjoy their unique pleasures in overly


    crowded ces.


    Lucas handed the ticket to the man at the cabin entrance. After respectfully examining the ticket, the


    man extended his hand, signaling


    us to enter.


    It was only when I walked in that I realized it was a vast auction site. In the elegant and quiet


    environment, there sat bustling wealthy

    tycoons who looked very rich at first nce. On the wine tables in front of them were expensive red


    wines.


    Among this group of people, I immediately spotted Thomas and Ryan. It wasn’t that my eyes were


    particrly sharp, but rather that the two of them were sitting at the same table, while everyone else


    was sitting alone at their own tables, which made these two particrly noticeable.


    Seeing the two people, instinctively, I was about to walk towards them, but was pulled back by Lucas.


    He frowned and said, “Don’t be impulsive, they can’t escape. Don’t forget your main task tonight.”
