Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 989

The Binary Oracle hadn't found a single shred of information. Not even a secondary photograph.

Sanctum Holdings lived up to its name. They were ghosts.

"They also put out that massive bounty for Dr. Nocturne..." Luella rubbed her nose, asking cautiously, "Juniper, do you want to meet him in person?"

This man was plotting to destroy Borealia before inevitably turning his guns on Australis. He was a ticking time bomb.

Extremely dangerous.

"Let's test their sincerity first," Juniper said lazily, her eyes still glued to her mobile game.

"You got it."

Five minutes later, Luella practically burst through the video call screen, buzzing with adrenaline. "Juniper! Juniper!"

Shanley walked into the room carrying a plate of sliced mango, immediately greeted by Luella's highly punchable face.

Him again. Did Subterra Vanguard literally have no other employees?

"I quoted them five hundred million," Luella said, her face taking up the entire camera frame, eyes shining like diamonds. "And they agreed without a second thought! They want you to evaluate a patient who has been comatose and legally brain-dead for years."

"I'll take it." Juniper didn't even look up from her game, her tone completely nonchalant.

Five hundred million. She'd be a fool to turn down that kind of cash.

Besides, it was the perfect excuse to evaluate this mysterious mastermind face-to-face.

"Excellent." Luella seamlessly switched lines to confirm the logistics with the Sanctum Holdings proxy.

"The fifty percent deposit has already cleared. The appointment is set for the morning after next." Luella reported through the phone. "But they have a massive list of security demands. They insist Dr. Nocturne comes completely alone."

"It's a trap. It's too dangerous." Shanley picked up a napkin to gently wipe a drop of juice from her lip.
