“I see him on the news all the time! How can I not know him? He doesn’t know me, though,” Harvey
said.
Watson burst out laughing.
“You sure are good at scaring people with just words. If I’m in a bad state, my heart would’ve jumped
out of my throat by now!”
Harvey chuckled.
“I’m just kidding with you.
“Still, you should just see what happens next. Country H has been at peace since he was put to power.
Some powerful people in the past were also suppressed by him.
“Safe to say, the country only started flourishing because of him.
“At the same time, Big Boss has empathy. He knows that unity of knowledge and practice will carry him
through .
“People like that are almost no different compared to a saint. Surely he wouldn’t have ulterior motives.
You don’t need to be too worried.”
Watson trembled, then smiled.
“Spectators always have a clearer view of the game, after all… I didn’t think you’d see the picture so
clearly, when I’m the one working for the government for so long.
“I’ve been narrow-minded for the past few years, I see…”Harvey smiled. “Right. Now that your troubles are dealt with… I’ll have to take care of mine.”
Watson’s face turned stern. He waved for his guards to leave.
“No need to hide anything,” he said with a faint smile.
Harvey wasted no time explaining everything that happened the day before, including Ibuki’s arrival.
“If my guess is correct, Ibuki’s arrival isn’t a coincidence. Someone’s fanning the flames.”
Watson sighed. “Not just that. Someone’s planning to take advantage of the situation as well.”
Harvey frowned. “What do you mean?”
Watson poured Harvey a cup of tea before passing his phone. Harvey glanced at it, then froze.
“Letter of appointment… For Damon John?”
Watson nodded.
“A city cannot live without its leader. Golden Sands is no different.
“When my father was announced to hold office at Wolsing … Damon was appointed here as well.
“From now on, Damon will be the first-in-command of Golden Sands. The government’s authority is
now fully in the John family’s hands.
“Damon is none other than the head of the John family, and also Blaine’s father.
“He took charge in the three northern provinces before this. I guess we can consider this a glorious
comeback.”Watson chuckled disdainfully.
Harvey suddenly realized why Watson would call him and his family hostages. Judging from the
situation, the Johns had reclaimed Golden Sands. From now onward, the Johns would have total
novelbincontrol over the city’s government.
The Patel family and the six Hermit Families finally managed to get the upper hand with Heaven’s
Gate’s incident, but that victory was rendered useless.
Watson took a sip of his tea. “Another thing. Do you know why Ibuki’s here as an envoy of the Island
Nations Embassy?”
Harvey frowned. “He’s here to celebrate?”
“That’s right. For the new first-in-command, of course,” Watson said.
