"Will that really work?" Paimon vaguely felt that something was wrong.

Lumine was very confident about this.

"Don't worry, this is the method Mr. Hearing Luo Li taught me, no problem!"

"!!!"

The method taught by Mr. Hearing Luo Li?

Paimon fell into doubt; would that person really teach such a simple way?

She didn't quite believe it.

However, seeing that Lumine had already started striding away, even if she felt something was wrong, she could only follow.

Under the maple tree by the seaside.

A man with dark yellow hair was waiting for something listlessly; he leaned against the tree branch, his expression somewhat impatient, looking up at the sky from time to time.

"Why haven't they come yet?"

According to the usual meeting time for negotiating delivery, Kurisu and the others should have arrived by now.

But today they are already fifteen minutes late; could it be that they found another way?

Thinking of this, the man was a little panicked, but soon calmed down again.

"Impossible, they have already bought out all the goods, and the things from Yashiori Island simply cannot be transported over, otherwise those people would definitely remind me. Since they haven't said anything now, it means everything is still under control."

He instinctively breathed a sigh of relief, but when he thought about having to face President Kurisu and the others, who had been good to him, with a cold and ruthless expression, the man felt conflicted in his heart.

If he could, he wouldn't want to do this either, but people are ultimately selfish.

Compared to his previous life of living from hand to mouth, he was willing to act as a running dog and accomplice for the Kanjou Commission, just to be safe and sound.

Just as he was thinking this, a scrutinizing voice came from not far away.

"Are you Werner?"

The man named Werner looked towards the sound and met the sharp eyes of a blonde girl, with a little flying thing following beside her.

Startled for a moment by her sharp gaze, Werner then reacted and asked back.

"Who are you? A fresh face I've never seen before."

"You don't need to know who I am; I came here this time to ask about your source of Crystal Marrow."

"???"

Werner was stunned; where did this greenhorn come from?

"Are you kidding? How could I possibly tell you the source? If I tell you the path, how can I continue my business? Do you understand business secrets?"

The grumpy answer made Paimon show an "as expected" expression.

Although she knew it was impossible, this person's attitude was very infuriating.

"Oh, I see, you asked about the source as soon as you arrived; did that bunch of people like Kurisu ask you to come and plead for them?"

"Plead?"

Lumine snorted coldly, squeezed her fist, making a crisp sound of bones, and her gaze gradually became dangerous.

She had a lot of experience in dealing with such people who bully the weak and fear the strong.

From the arrogant attitude when they met, it could be seen that this person was an ingrate.

Not to mention how bad things he had done, but deep down he was definitely a coward.

Running out of the International Trade Association that had protected him, and then becoming an accomplice to turn against his own people, he was simply a typical traitor.

Not to mention making him miserable, beating him up would definitely not be wrong.

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be following the routine, Werner was a little panicked and subconsciously stepped back a few steps to protect himself.

"Wait, what are you planning to do? I'm telling you, this is Ritou, and there are patrols from the Kanjou Commission nearby; if you are discovered, you..."

Before he could finish speaking, the fist that looked fair and tender but was actually extremely fierce gradually enlarged in his vision.

The next moment, Werner let out a cry of pain and was directly knocked to the ground.

Immediately following was the forced interrogation.

Just as Lumine had thought at the beginning, after being threatened, Werner really quickly told all the information.

He indicated that he was indeed coerced into becoming an accomplice for certain people in the departments under the Kanjou Commission, and all kinds of collusion were exposed by him like beans spilling from a bamboo tube.

Paimon looked at Lumine, who was imposing and looked like a villain, and felt a bit guilty.

"Is it really okay to do this?"

However, violence is indeed very useful; it took less than fifteen minutes, and the ins and outs of the matter were completely cleared up.

PS: The fifth update yesterday was a bit late.
