After another five minutes, Xyla successfully found the real IP address. The location was a prime area in Atlantis—Valdor University, Block 8, Building 106.
Vrrt. Vrrt. Vrrt.
Just then, Xyla’s phone vibrated. Upon seeing the name ‘Aunt Lana Harrison’, Xyla immediately answered.
The person on the other end spoke in a gentle and kind tone, “Xyla dear, I saw the news about your family. Do you need any help from me? I know that it’s all just rumors.”
“It’s just a small matter. Does it require you, Madam Attorney General, to personally take care of this?” said Xyla with a laugh.
“If it’s something to do with you Xyla, it’s not small at all. If you hadn’t treated me back in Country Y, I’d have met Satan by now. Enough with the nonsense. Tell me what I need to do. You have to give me a task, otherwise, I won’t hang up,” said Lana stubbornly.
Xyla held her forehead helplessly. “Why don’t you help me catch the rumormonger? I’ve found that person’s real IP address.”
Since the woman was adamant about helping, Xyla would take her up on the offer. This would save her quite a lot of trouble anyway.
“Sure, sure, sure. Then, I’ll instruct my people to make the arrangements.”
“Thank you, Aunt Harrison. I’ll send the address to your WeChat inbox,” said Xyla in her usual soft voice.
“You’re my savior, so it’s only natural that I’d do anything for you. And you’re so pretty too. Even if you never saved my life, I’d still help you if we were acquainted. I like pretty people. Alright, I’m hanging up. Once the issue is settled, let’s have coffee someday.”
“Sure,” replied Xyla with a smile.
