When Charlie saw Carvalho pleading desperately as h e knelt on the ground, Charlie felt a little nauseated, and he said coldly, "If you want to be able to return to the United States in this lifetime, you'd better cooperate with me honestly to catch Falco Xanthos. If we manage to catch Falco Xanthos before he kills again, I'll allow you to go back alive. Otherwise, you should be prepared to die in Aurous Hill just as I've mentioned before!" 1
When Carvalho heard these words, he naturally did not dare to refute Charlie’s words or show any resistance at all. His face was filled with tears as he said, "I'll do as Young Master Wade asks of me. I'll act according to your command..."
At this time, Carvalho also realized that Charlie, who was in front of him, was someone that he could never afford to provoke. 2
'Everything else aside, Chandler’s ability is already way above my level. However, Chandler is treating Charlie with so much reverence and respect. It is already obvious that this man is an extraordinary person based on this fact alone...’ 'Moreover, what is even more impressive is that this man is so young, but he actually possesses the ability t o make Chandler twenty years younger. This ability alone is already far beyond my perception!' 4
'Although I do not know whether he will be able to kill Falco Xanthos, I know that if I were to offend and provoke him, he will never let me off so easily...'
Chandler, who was still on the phone, could not help but sigh and say, "Carvalho, you should have just agreed to Young Master Wade’s request from the very beginning. Why did you bother getting into the situation that you’re in right now?!"
Carvalho was also feeling very remorseful.
He thought to himself, 'How would I have known that h e was the one who had given you that good opportunity?! If I had known it earlier, I would have done whatever he wanted me to do. At that time, if I were to cooperate well with him, perhaps he would also be willing to give me a good opportunity, then...'
'Now that I've already offended him, I'll not be able to obtain any benefits at all, but I’ll also have to bite the bullet to cooperate with him anyway. Even if I were to cooperate well with him, he might not be willing to let me off so easily. As for a good opportunity, there is no need for me to even think about it anymore...’
When Charlie saw that Carvalho had finally given up resisting, he spoke up and instructed, "Since you've already agreed to it, give me a detailed account of your meeting with him yesterday. For instance, what did the both of you talk about?"
Carvalho did not dare to delay, and he hurriedly told Charlie all the details of his meeting with Falco yesterday.
There were three very important points.
The first point was that Falco’s purpose in coming to Aurous Hill was to look for Charlie so that he could kill him.
Secondly, Falco had asked Carvalho to find a breakthrough point from Sophie. So, it could be confirmed that Falco must have gotten the information from Cadfan, and he felt that Charlie was very close to Sophie, and he would be able to find Charlie through Sophie.
Thirdly, Falco had received two missions from Cadfan. The first mission was to kill Charlie, but Carvalho did not know what Falco's second mission was.
After clarifying all these things, Charlie said coldly," Since you're willing to cooperate with me now, call Falco Xanthos and tell him that you've made significant progress in your investigation. Ask him to come out and meet you. I want to set up a trap for him so that I can make him an easy target and catch him easily."
Carvalho asked, "What should I say if he asks me for the relevant clues over the phone, then?" 5
