Chapter 1793 Decision
As soon as he stopped, Roland came out of his car with a dumbfounded expression. He started walking as if he didn't believe he could meet him.
"Are you…" His voice was shaking as if he was feeling threatened by the government.
Theo nodded with a serious expression. Meeting Theo two times would be just a pipe dream for most people. But this time, he managed to see Theo again. He couldn't help but feel proud and honored.
"Sir…"
Theo narrowed his eyes, observing the guy before asking, "Why are you here?"
"Sir… Have you forgotten your promise? You told me you would give me the evidence if I were stuck in my investigation." Ronald's face became pale.
"Indeed." Theo nodded with a calm face. "And that's why I come here personally."
"That's…" Ronald looked down while scratching his head. He was embarrassed to ask for it, but he had to do it. "Do you mind if I…"
Ronald was hesitant, but Theo said, "Sure. I'm not planning to hold onto it anyway. In fact, it will become more credible if I publish it under a journalist. It'll be more believable.
"I have two options for you. I'll let you do the investigation yourself or you can collect all the evidence from me. What will you do?"
"That's…" Ronald looked down. The first option was a great opportunity for a reporter. He could record everything for himself and take all the credit. On the other hand, he didn't know whether the government wanted to take the first one or the second one.
If he received the evidence right away, he could give it to the government, but there was no guarantee he could live. But if he received the location, he could go there by himself and somehow guarantee his safety for a bit longer.
After all, Theo stated, "If you choose the former, I'll dump my evidence on you. If you choose the second one, I have to send you together with someone from my group to make sure you go there alone. I'll tell him to make sure you go home and publish it so that everyone knows the truth."
"That's…" Roland clenched his fists. Since there was no way the agents could contact him like this, Roland said, "I'll choose the latter."
"A good choice." Theo nodded with a serious expression. "If that's the case, I'll tell you about the location. Wait here for a while."
Theo disappeared, returning to his base.
Meanwhile, the people behind the operation could still hear their conversation since the car had been equipped with all the tools needed.
"What should we do now…" Behind the operation were three people.
"Since we can't really let out a sound if we don't want Theo to notice us, we can only go along with him. It seems he's giving those two options because everything is going according to his prediction.
"In that case, why don't we allow them to go to the designated location? Although we can mobilize the Transcendent Level Experts, it doesn't change the fact he will send someone of the same level.
"His people are not that easy to capture. So, it's better to wait. We have a few trackers in both his body and the car, so we should be able to track their destination."
After listening to his opinion, the two agreed. It was true that this path would pose the least threat.
Still, they didn't know how much Theo knew about their operation. With his brain, he should be aware of their hidden surveillance system. But they didn't know how much Theo was aware of their code.
"Well, we can only do that. Even if he is aware of the surveillance system, we can still deduce the location. In the worst-case scenario, we can go straight to that guy to get the information.
"We just have to inform the headquarters to make sure they stop every information that Roland releases. The public can't know the current situation or else the government will collapse."
They made their arguments and decided they would stick to their original plan, which was to follow him through the tracking system inside the car and the guy's clothes.
After a while, Theo returned with Felix.
"Felix. Your job is to escort him to that location. I've told you about it, so you should have no problem finding that place."
"Are you not going?" Felix asked.
"No. I'm not planning to do anything right now, considering the situation is still unstable."
"I understand. I'll escort him there."
"Remember. If you spot someone who belongs to the government, don't hesitate and eliminate all the threats. I'll leave the information to you."
Felix nodded, understanding his role.
After receiving the order, Felix walked forward and extended his hand, shaking Ronald's hand. "Nice to meet you, I'm Felix, your guide this time. I'm confident in my strength as well, so don't be afraid. I'm here to protect you."
"Y-yes." Ronald nodded furiously.
"Alright then. You guys can have some fun. When you're back, notify me immediately."
"Yes." Felix nodded with a serious expression.
Theo smiled and added to Ronald. "You too. Don't forget to inform me when you've published the news."
"Yes, Sir." Ronald politely shouted.
"Good." Theo waved his hand, allowing them to go.
In that instant, Felix moved to the car, startling Ronald, who still had a hard time adjusting to his body due to the shock.
"Just go straight," Felix instructed. "I don't like to be tracked, but if I sense something is wrong, I'm going to drop this task immediately. I've got the permission anyway, so make sure you remember it."
"Yes!" Ronald answered as soon as possible. But this warning was actually directed to the people behind the operation.
After giving that warning, Ronald finally drove the car, heading straight toward the secret facility.
Those people didn't know Theo had visited him first before this transaction. And he already knew what kind of facility was waiting for him.
Thinking about them made him excited. He knew the Vice President had to pay for what he had done.
