Chapter 1003
Ivor said, “I think I know why the Nidhoggs are doing this.”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
On the other hand, Floyd remained clueless. He hastily asked his boss, “Why, Mr. Ivor?”
“They’re such a considerable organization that Falcon’s actions are a huge embarrassment. They sent that many people because they want to get to Falcon before we do. They’d feel ashamed if we got to him first.”
Floyd finally understood what was happening after listening to his boss’s reasoning. “So, that’s how it is.” Ads by PubFuture
Ivor continued to tap the table as he went silent for a while. Finally, he said, “Dispatch another team of our most elite guys to track down Falcon. They must report to the Nidhoggs when they pinpoint his whereabouts. We won’t capture Falcon unless we have to.”
Floyd was stunned, not entirely understanding his boss’s actions. “Mr. Ivor, I know the Nidhoggs are doing this to deal with their traitor, but there’s no reason we should do something to benefit them.
“Also, we’ll get our money and the chip if we get to Falcon first. Why should we work with the Nidhoggs?” “How are you this dense?” Ivor looked at his assistant, exasperated. “You’re forgetting there are two passwords in the chip. Although the Nidhoggs have agreed to lend it to us, what will we do if we piss off their leader and he chooses not to give us the second password?
“Then, he’ll say he has given us the chip, and it’s our fault for not being capable enough to unlock it. What’ll we do then?”
After a brief pause, Ivor continued, “I have a hunch the leader of the Nidhoggs is reasonable and easy to converse with. Doing something that’ll benefit them will make it easier for us to negotiate with them.” Ads by PubFuture
He spoke with the organization’s best interest in mind. He did not think it was wise to go against the Nidhoggs’ leader when there were insufficient benefits. Moreover, it did not make a difference who caught Falcon first. Hence, there was no need to build resentment over something so trivial.
Floyd facepalmed when he finally understood the situation. “Jeez, Mr. Ivor. Your analysis was impeccable. I wonder why I didn’t think of that.”
Ivor said indifferently, “You’re a fool, that’s why.”
Floyd could only scratch his head and chuckle dryly. He would not have taken it lightly if someone else had called him a fool. Instead, he would have retorted. However, Floyd was more than ready to accept it since Ivor was the one who called him that.
After all, Ivor’s intelligence far surpassed those of average people.
Collin spent all day and night tracking Falcon down. Finally, he brought some good news to Bonnie, “We got him, Chief! He’s holed up in the basement of an abandoned villa in the countryside. He probably thinks he’s safe there and that we won’t find him.
“That’s why he made it his hideout for several days. We can catch him if we move out immediately.”
Bonnie shot up from the couch, emanating an imposing demeanor. “Did you confirm it? Don’t let his misdirection deceive you!”
Collin confidently responded, “I’m sure of it, Chief. We found Falcon several days ago but continued monitoring him first because we feared it was a trap. We can finally confirm that he’s there.” Bonnie nodded. “Let’s catch that son of a bitch!”
