Chapter 153 Serial Killer–Found!



"Huh? Did you say something?"

Nathan turned his gaze to Runa with a confused expression.

Seeing that Nathan did not hear her clearly, Runa repeated her question, "I said, do you know what that Illuminati is?"

"Oh, that… no, I don\'t know about it." Nathan said with a vague smile.

"Is that so…"

Hearing that, Runa seems a little disappointed.

Looking at her, Nathan put the thoughts about the Illuminati at the back of his head for now.

He said, "Well, back to our main topic, I think the spirit of wanting to learn more about your own heritage is a very good thing to do so I am not against the idea of exploring more."

The disappointed look on Runa\'s eyes disappeared as it was immediately replaced by excitement, "Really!? That\'s great!"

She stood up and cheered happily after hearing Nathan\'s agreement.

Shaking his head lightly, Nathan sighed.

Then he turned his gaze back at her and asked, "By the way, do Irish know that you\'re a Naeco?"

Runa stopped and sat back down and answered, "Oum, sister Irish is my sister. Her father and my father are very close friends."

As she said that, her mood suddenly seemed to have plummeted and she continued, "They were close enough for father and mother to leave me with them right before they died."

Nathan was not surprised to hear that Runa\'s parents are already dead since he saw it on her details when he used appraisal at her before.

But he still needed to be considerate and said, "Ah, I\'m sorry for that. I hope that you can grow up properly."

While saying that, he lightly patted her head before he stood up from his seat.

Nathan said, "C\'mon, since you already told me your reason, we have nothing more to talk about. Let\'s go and talk about it with the others."

"O-oh, oum!" Said Runa as she shyly followed Nathan.

Saying that, the two got up and left the office.

Nathan greeted Joseph when he passed by him outside the office waiting for their discussion to end, before heading back to their table with Runa.

"You\'re back!"

When they appeared, Irish immediately saw them.

"So, what did you guys talk about?"

Asked Kenneth with a curious filled face.

Nathan sat down on his seat before saying, "It was something private for Runa so I don\'t have the right to talk about it without her permission."

Crossing his fingers, he looked into everyone\'s eyes and added, "But after our talk, I have decided to once again explore the ruins if possible and see what more is in there."

The others were stunned by his sudden declaration.

It was James who reacted first.

With a frown and a serious look in his eyes, he questioned, "Why? Didn\'t you see how dangerous it was last time?"

After hearing his question, the others on the table also looked at Nathan seriously, waiting for his answer.

Nathan sat there staring back at them, not in a hurry to answer.

In his head, he thought, \'If I told them that it was my plan to explore it again right from the start, would they be mad?\'

After a few seconds, he came up with a reason.

He turned his eyes at Runa and sighed, "Hais… I have decided to do this after hearing out Runa\'s reason for also wanting to visit the ruins again. If you guys want to know what that is, you can only ask her directly."

At the mention of her name, Runa became the center of attention around the table.

Just as they were about to start asking her, the waiter arrived and placed their orders on the table.

After politely telling them to enjoy themselves, the waiter left and continued serving other customers.

With him gone, Runa became the center of attention again.

From the looks of it, Runa is getting pressured by the looks they are giving, that is why Nathan has decided to intervene.

Sighing helplessly, Nathan said, "Well, well, let\'s stop talking about this topic. You can ask Runa about her reason privately later. For now, let us enjoy the drinks and food we were served."

After hearing that, the others reluctantly stopped pressuring Runa.

At the same time, they realized that they were acting too much. It was Runa\'s privacy that they were invading.

Because of this, they were ashamed and apologized to Runa.

"Uh.. Sorry, Runa. Here, come try this chocolate cake."

"C\'mon, try this too, this tastes great, Runa."

To make up for their faults, they gave Runa some of their food and so the heavy atmosphere on the table disappeared.

Looking at that, Nathan smiled.

Just as he was relaxing, a sudden notification from the drone appeared in front of him.

After reading it, his eyes immediately lit up.

"So the murderer finally showed himself!" He muttered.

A while ago, Nathan has programmed the drone to search for the murderer and just a moment ago, that criminal has showed himself.

As for how Nathan can be sure that it really is the serial killer, it was because of the clue found by the police just a few days ago.

A blood red knife with a handle that looks like a goat horn that was found in the last murder case of the unknown serial killer.

From the police\'s investigations, it was a part of a twin knife set called, Red Fangs.

It was a famous pair of twin blades crafted by a blacksmith from Japan.

With that as a lead, Nathan programmed the drone to be on the lookout for the other half of the Red Fangs.

And now, the person that the drone has found is in possession of the said knife!

Without hesitation, Nathan stood up from his seat and said, "Sorry, guys. I suddenly remember I have something urgent to do. Let\'s talk again some other time!"

Before the others even said anything, Nathan has already left the cafe, leaving the 4 dumbfounded.
