Normally, something like this would take hours to read all the info, but all Blake needed to do was have a glance at them and the system would be able to bring it back up.

After getting all the info he needed, he began questioning the ash corps in both the investigation department and border control.

‘He was at the wall some minutes ago, now he is questioning ash corps. What is his aim?’ Major Garret was trying to understand what Blake was doing so that he could begin cooking up a countermeasure, but everything was confusing.

The confusion caused fear to rise in his heart, but there was nothing he could do about it until he understood what was going on.

Once Blake was done with questioning some ash corps, he quickly left the square and returned to his hotel room.

…

The next day, Blake began visiting the locations where the incidents or arrests had occurred and questioning the area’s residents.

From the information Blake got from the catalogue, the total of drug-related cases for the past 2 months wasn’t up to 10.

.....

This would have been good news only if the ash corps had adequate measures for tackling these cases. So low numbers were a result of not even knowing about them in the first place.

Once he confirmed that there was no other useful info he could get, Blake would leave the area, move to another location, and repeat the same thing.

By the time he had visited all the areas listed in the catalogue, it was already dark so he began heading back to the hotel.

‘It was just like I expected.’ Blake sighed.

Out of all the 40 people he had questioned that day, no one had given him important information. Most of them were beating round the bush while some were unwilling to cooperate, but they all had something in common, fear in their eyes.

They had been afraid to speak about gangs and dealers in the area because of fear that they would be attacked or even killed for snitching.

Blake had expected it since the system had alerted him of people hiding in the shadows close to the area wherever he was questioning people.

Besides he didn’t expect anyone to want to risk their lives for a foreigner, because if he didn’t bring the criminals to book just like the Ash corp, they would be risking their lives for nothing.

As for those that were monitoring those he questioned, Blake could have gone after them, but he had he saw no point in that, at least for now.

“If I had gone after any of them, not only was there a chance that they could commit suicide but capturing them would still alert those that sent them if they did not report back.”

Blake didn’t want to do anything that could possibly make the club boss cancel the trade deal that would take place the next day. So, it was better to play it safe because he could always capture them later.

…

The next day came, and the time for the deal was scheduled by high noon.

“They plan on using the bustling city as a cover to easily disappeared in case something was to go wrong with the deal.” Blake said as he thought of the time of the deal.

[So, what is your plan?] The system asked.

“I don’t know the relationship between both parties, but if I was in their shoes I would come way before the time to scan the area and set up some things in case it is a trap.”

“That means I would have to go even earlier to make sure that this isn’t a trap for me.” Blake said.

He still hadn’t forgotten about how easy it was for him to get the info. So, it was natural for him to think that it was a trap to lure him to the meeting point.

The next problem was escaping the room without anyone finding out, but that wasn’t too much of an issue.

Although it wouldn’t be as easy as leaving at night, all Blake needed to do was remove the part about flying with the guardian scarab.

Using both the system’s detection skill and the locator spell to find out the position of all his stalkers, Blake opened the curtain a little bit before warping to a safe area.

This time, instead of flying, Blake activated Nightveil and began running to his destination.

Jerry couldn’t drive him to the area because his movement from the Ash corp housing area would be monitored. Also, the option of riding on Ebony and Ivory was out of the question because seeing a man riding a wolf was a dead giveaway of his presence.

The meeting point was on the east side of the normal region while his hotel was at the southern part. On foot, the journey would take nothing less than 30 minutes especially since Blake didn’t want to get spotted by anyone.

“I should still have enough time to rest before the trade begins.” Blake said as he got to the edge of an alley and warped into the next one across the road.

[You would be able to recover your full strength but at this rate, you won’t have enough mana for a full fight.] The system said.

“Good thing I have no plans for fighting, and even if I am forced to fight, Ebony and Ivory are at full strength.” Blake said.

…

Just as estimated, Blake had gotten to the eastern part of the city in 30 minutes and was currently panting in an alley.

The meeting point was at a small restaurant which luckily for Blake had large open windows.

“Time to get down to business.”

He first placed a spatial mark at a farther area before carefully checking the buildings around the restaurant for traps or people.

After that Blake used the locator spell to know the current location of the boss.

“Where is the owner of The Essence nightclub at?”

Fortunately for him, the boss never had an anti-tracking item or array from the start, so his position lit up at his mansion in the city’s central region.

Once that was done, Blake rested and began waiting for both parties to appear before or at the specified time.

An hour later, Blake who was cloaked at the top of a building nearby saw the boss walk into the restaurant and took a seat close to one of the windows.

[I guess he is too paranoid even to think straight.] The system said.

Usually, if an illegal trade was to go on, it was meant to be in a secluded area of the restaurant, but it seemed that the boss also wanted to be on the lookout for anyone that could be monitoring them.

“I can’t complain if things work in my favor.” Blake said.

Blake’s plan was to open a tiny spatial corridor close to the boss’ table so that he could listen to their conversation, but that all depended on the strength of the second party.

If the second party was in the Hero realm, he might be lucky enough to not sense the tiny spatial corridor, but if it was a demigod then he had no chance at all.

If that was to happen it wouldn’t be too much of an issue since all Blake needed was his identity.

Blake began watching closely at the table, and soon enough someone walked past and dropped a dimensional amulet which the boss quickly put away.

[I see what is going on. He was stationed close to the window to monitor the outside, while the dealer who had been there right from the start monitored the inside.] The system said.

‘It means that they totally trust each other, and that level of trust could only be gotten from trading for a very long time.’ Blake thought as his target switched from the boss to the dealer.
