Xavion's statement that time was running out made Spencer feel even more worried.
He could not help but question Xavion," We’ve sent so many people and even offered so much money, but we still haven't been able to find any clues yet?"
"No..." Xavion spoke up and said, "Our people, as well as the gangs from New York, are already searching all over the whole of New York, but there are just no clues..."
Spencer rebuked angrily, "They are all a bunch of useless people! This is especially so for those intelligence personnel. We usually spend so much money to support them just so that they can play an important role at the critical moments, but the more critical the situation, the more useless they are!"
Xavion said helplessly, "Dad, we cannot blame our intelligence personnel this time mainly because the kidnappers are simply too cunning. They really did not leave any clues behind, and the premise is that there must be at least a clue to lead us to the culprit. However, not to mention our intelligence personnel, but even the CIA from the United States also have a large number of unsolved cases because there are no clues..."
Spencer suddenly remembered something, and he blurted out, "That's right! What did the police say? Isn't that Merlin a great detective?! He has also been investigating this case, so why hasn't there been any news yet?" "This..." Xavion spoke angrily, "I didn't contact Merlin. I really cannot get along with this guy.”
Spencer asked coldly, "Merlin seems to be very close to Christian from the Acker family, right?”
"That's right." Xavion nodded and confirmed, "He has a good relationship with Christian Acker."
Spencer instructed, "Call him and ask him if the police have found anything. If the police can find the kidnappers, everything will be fine. However, if we cannot find the kidnappers, we will have to give the kidnappers the two hundred billion US dollars worth of cryptocurrency that they have demanded if we want Homer to survive. If we really hand the money over and no one is caught in the end, it will be difficult to recover the money.
Cryptocurrency is completely anonymous, and it is a string of encrypted data. Anyone who has it can put it online to be used for anonymous transactions.”
Xavion hurriedly said, "I know, Dad. I will call Merlin in a while."
Spencer looked at him, hesitated for a moment, and said earnestly, "Xavion, since this matter has already developed to this point, both you and I have to be mentally prepared."
Xavion was startled and quickly asked, " Dad, what do you mean...?”
