“Yes, sir!” Adelar nodded before carrying out the order
As the investigation was ongoing, Grimo felt slightly awkward while facing Sebastian in silence.
Finished
So, he suggested, “We were testing our shooting skills a moment ago. Would you be interested in giving it a try?”
After some thought, Sebastian concluded that there really wasn’t much to do while waiting for the investigation results and decided to give it a try.
The two of them then headed to the shooting range, starting to compete.
Grimo was thoroughly shocked as soon as the competition started.
He had assumed that Sebastian was a businessman who had no marksmanship whatsoever. Surprisingly, Sebastian’s skills turned out to be on par with his own.
Regardless of the type of gun used or the distance, Sebastian could strike the bull’s–eye of every single target that Grimo could.
Grimo was taken aback and asked, “Have you been training?” ”
Such precise marksmanship couldn’t be achieved by an average person without three to six years of dedicated practice.
Sebastian, however, didn’t think it was a big deal. He smiled nonchalantly. “It was just an old hobby of mine.”
In reality, before Sebastian took over Lockhart Group, he had undergone quite a bit of professional training.
Back then, he possessed an extraordinary talent that surpassed the average person in nearly every aspect, including academics, martial arts, and even shooting.
Though he rarely trained after taking over the company, his muscle memory was deeply ingrained.
Hence, he was not at all inferior even when compared to Grimo.
Adelar returned while the two were competing. “Boss, Thad someone look into it earlier, but we couldn’t trace where the bullet ended up.”

“How is this possible?” Grimo immediately furrowed his brows, finding it peculiar. How strange. Usually, we’d be informed about the destination of any weapon dispatched from the arsenal. It’s impossible that there’s absolutely no news.
Adelar revealed, “Boss, actually, we stopped producing these bullets three years ago. Moreover, the client who purchased this batch of bullets has long since retired from the game, and they’ve even resold these bullets once. So…”
Therefore, the dessination of the bullet became a mystery.
Grimo was displeased upon hearing that. “Did you investigate the client? Who did they resell the bullets.

“Not yet.” Adelar responded, reminding. “Boss, our arsenal has a rule to never interfere with the goods once they’re sold. What do you think?
Crimo fell into deep thought while Sebastian maintained a poker face. “Since that client has already retired, I suppose looking into it shouldn’t be a big issue”
Grimo seemed to be swayed by his words.
“But boss…” Adelar still had his concerns.
However, Grimo commanded. “Immediately investigate the whereabouts of these bullets while ensuring the safety of our client.”
Adelar had no choice but to comply, “Yes, Boss”
Following that, he got in touch with the former client right in front of the two.
When the client answered the phone and heard it was someone from the arsenal, he immediately became flustered.
“I’m sorry, but I’ve long since left that life behind. I’m a married man and a father now, living a blissful and peaceful life. I have no desire to be involved in these underworld disputes anymore. I hope you can spare me and let me live my life in peace!” the client said.
Grimo was speechless and snatched the phone from Adelar. “What do you mean by that? Are you meaning to say I’ll devour you if we collaborate?”
The client hastily clarified, “No, of course not! I just don’t want to get myself involved in such disputes anymore.”
Grimo waved his hand dismissively. “Don’t worry. I just want to ask you a few questions. After this, I’ll leave you alone.”
“But…” The client was clearly hesitant.
Grimo became impatient and said unceremoniously, “Of course, it’s fine if you choose not to cooperate. This matter has nothing to do with you. However, your refusal might upset me and potentially get you in trouble. The decision is yours to make.”
After saying that, he immediately hung up the phone.
Sebastian looked at him skeptically. “Are you sure this will work?”
Given his domineering attitude, most people won’t dare to call back.
However, Grimo nodded in determination, his tone authoritative. “Of course. He won’t dare to turn me down. Why don’t you count to ten? I guarantee he’ll definitely call back.”
Sebastian was filled with doubts, but still, he began counting. “Ten, nine, eight…
The phone sull didn’t ring when Sebastian reached the number five.
Feeling slightly embarrassed, Grimo still stubbornly said, “There’s still five more seconds left. He’ll definitely call back. Don’t worry!”

Sebastian sneered, his tone dripping with condescension as he continued counting. “Three, two…”
Finished
He stopped before he could reach the final second because the phone screen lit up. The client had called
back.
Grimo immediately broke into a triumphant smile. “Ste? I told you he’d call back.”
As soon as he answered the phone, the client said in a nervous tone, “I can tell you where those bullets ended up, but please, whatever you do, don’t get me involved!”
“Don’t worry.” Grimo assured him, a wicked smile curling his lips as he exuded a confident air.
The client said truthfully, “Those bullets were originally part of my prized collection. However, after starting a family, I decided to leave the underworld. Hence, I sold the bullets to a man named Louis. As for his identity, I have no clue.”
Louis?
Grimo found the name familiar but couldn’t put his finger on it.
Following that, the client hastily ended the call.
Immediately, Grimo issued a command in a chilling tone, “Adelar, investigate this Louis guy.”
“Yes, sir.” Adelar immediately began investigating.
He managed to dig up some information in no time and informed Grimo, “Boss, it seems that Louis joined Oceanic Empire about four years ago… That’s as far as I could find. As for what role he plays within.
Oceanic Empire, I’m not sure.”
Which means Madelyn might’ve been taken away by people from Oceanic Empire.
Sebastian’s brows knitted with concern.
Oceanic Empire? Why is it them again?
Grimo was taken aback as well. That woman was captured by Oceanic Empire?”
Sebastian didn’t respond to that question, as the answer was quite apparent.
Then, with a stern expression, he asked, “Grimo, do you have any idea where the headquarters of Oceanic Empire is located?”
Grimo’s heart skipped a beat.
