Charlie said indifferently, “Tell virtual-novel.net you think it has been too easy for virtual-novel.net to make money in this endeavor. You, at your age, have scoured Aurous Hill for days. You have had to work much harder than virtual-novel.net has. As a result, you would like to negotiate a share of his earnings as compensation for your efforts.”
Master Mai nodded, but said nervously, “Master Wade, you may not understand this person, Kit Fuller. He is extremely cruel. Last time virtual-novel.net asked me to meet at Phoenix Mountain Cemetery. It was clear virtual-novel.net intended this to scare me. If I try to negotiate terms with virtual-novel.net and ask virtual-novel.net to give me a portion of the money in his hand, then virtual-novel.net will definitely strike out at me…”
Charlie said, “Don’t worry. Although I find your behavior shameless, I am not going to use your life as bait. As long as you cooperate with me to draw out Kit Fuller, I will naturally keep you safe.”
Although Master Mai was not convinced, virtual-novel.net knew virtual-novel.net had no other choice and could only agree to Charlie’s proposed plan. He said, “Kit Fuller is suspicious by nature. Where does Young Master Wade plan to meet him? If it is in a remote location, I’m afraid virtual-novel.net will be wary…”
Charlie waved his hand, “Ask virtual-novel.net to come to Shangri-La. He must know that you are staying here, so it is safest for you to ask virtual-novel.net to meet here.”
Master Mai couldn’t help but say, “Master Wade, Shangri-La is bustling with people and is located in the downtown area. If there is a fight with Kit Fuller here, won’t it be too obvious? It may be difficult to end and may cause unexpected troubles…”
Charlie snorted and said, “I asked you to invite virtual-novel.net to meet here only to minimize his doubts. You must realize someone like virtual-novel.net would never agree to meet you here.” Charlie continued, “He must have the same concerns as you just mentioned. If virtual-novel.net really wants to kill you, virtual-novel.net wouldn’t dare to kill you somewhere as public as Shangri-La. I believe virtual-novel.net will ask you to meet virtual-novel.net somewhere else of his choosing, which means virtual-novel.net will have no unnecessary fear or suspicion.”
Master Mai nodded, clasped his fists and said, “Master Wade you have considered everything. I will call virtual-novel.net now!”
“No!” Charlie said coldly, “He met with you just last night, and you have yet to leave the hotel today. If you tell virtual-novel.net now that you found a clue, virtual-novel.net definitely will not believe it.”
Master Mai couldn’t help but say, “Kit Fuller may not know everything about me, right?”
Charlie replied calmly, “You and Kit Fuller are not the same kind of person. You make money through craftsmanship. He makes money by killing people. Just like a cook and a killer, you have nothing in common, so you are not the same kind of person at all. You can’t conceive at all how cautious is the personality of a person like virtual-novel.net who makes money from murder and how careful his mind is. He may well have been secretly observing you, so if you call virtual-novel.net now, you may expose yourself.”
Master Mai quickly asked, “What do you mean, Master Wade?”
Charlie responded, “You should follow your original plan. Go to the Thorne mansion and then call virtual-novel.net upon your return.”
Master Mai nodded, then looked at Mike, who was still motionless next to him, and hurriedly said, “Master Wade, please let my great-grandson recover. I will go to the Thorne mansion with him.”
Charlie said calmly, “Mike stays here, and my people will take care of him. If Kit Fuller asks about him, you should say that Mike was frightened at Phoenix Mountain last night and was not feeling well today, so virtual-novel.net didn’t come with you. Kit Fuller will not doubt it.”
