Selena frowned when the beggar mentioned the word ‘base’. This wasn’t something that people would know about.
“Please get some food for this man. Sir, let’s have a talk.”
Then, she motioned for him to enter the house.
“Let’s talk, then.” The beggar strutted over to Selena as he navigated through Pierre’s house toward his guest living room in a familiar manner.
Since this living room was smaller and secretive, nobody could eavesdrop on their conversation.
“May I know your name?”
“You can just call me Pollux, haha!”
Right then, Selena was shocked. Although she had never heard Pierre ever mentioning Pollux, she’d actually heard of this name when she was working under Hades!
Pollux was at the top of the world’s Hacker Leaderboard!
Selena never knew that Pierre and Pollux actually knew each other. Moreover, from the looks of it, they seemed close.
“What’s wrong? Do you know me?”
She grinned. “Who wouldn’t know the champion of the Hacker Leaderboard, who claimed that there’s no account or site that he can’t hack into?”
Pollux harrumphed proudly. “You’re well-informed.”
“However, my husband is really not at home. He… went to the base,” Selena answered truthfully. “You might have wasted your time on this trip.”
“He really went to the base?! That brat got me to rush over here but ended up leaving and stood me up?!”
“Did my husband tell you why he wanted you to come over?”
“He said he wanted me to take in an apprentice.”
