Chapter 867

"EMPEROR? Did he really think he was an emperor?" Sylvia sneered, a sharp glint in her cold eyes.

Franklin met her beautiful gaze and his heart skipped a beat at the sight of her delicate face. "Is EMPEROR dealing illegal weapons in the red-light district?"

Casey nodded vigorously. "Yes, many of the arms deals in the red-light district are run by him. Since it's already an illegal area, what he does there is technically legal. But if he takes his business outside of tha area, it becomes illegal. We've only heard rumors about him taking people to H Rovirsa so if you want to investigate further, that's where you should start."

"He leads a group called EMPEROR's Green Army and they're disgusting and despicable," Casey continued with a shudder. "They only rose to power within the past six months or so; before that there was no sign of EMPEROR in the red-light district at all. It seems like his influence has been slowly growing since last year and now he's taken over many docks."

She couldn't help but shiver as she spoke about EMPEROR. "I'm afraid things won't be peaceful in the red-light district anytime soon. The injured men who stayed with me recently were fighting against EMPEROR's men and got hurt badly because of it. They hate him so much they told us everything they know about him."

After listening carefully to Casey's words, Sylvia nodded thoughtfully before speaking up again: "Thank you for providing this information; we hadn't considered investigating the red-light district before but now i seems necessary."

Previously they had been focused on investigating the Wilson Family but now it seemed like this matter was more complex than originally thought - the Wilson Family might not be responsible for everything after all.

Especially since Clark had gone missing without any trace.

Franklin let out a long sigh before grasping Sylvia's hand tightly. "I'll send Vaughn to investigate this matter."

His voice was low and melodious like a cello which made his words even more convincing.

Sylvia couldn't help but nod along. "Good idea."

"Secretly Greatly" was also helping them investigate the Hipps family while members from their own organization were looking into this matter as well.

Framing an ancient family wasn't something small - there were interests involved as well as various forces at play behind-the-scenes which made things complicated indeed!

After finishing the story about the Hipps family, Casey felt a bit shy and nervously tugged at her clothes. She glanced over at Sylvia before gathering up her courage to speak. "Miss Andrews, do you have any hidden illnesses? Why did you buy detox pills? If there's anything bothering you, I... I can take a look for you."

The Gentry family was known for their expertise in treating difficult and complex medical conditions.

Sylvia was taken aback for a moment. She hadn't even taken the detox pill yet, but considering the attitude of the Gentry family now, she hesitated before extending her wrist. "Please check my pulse." Casey sat down excitedly but then quickly jumped up again to wash his hands in the bathroom with a clatter of noise. After all, it was nerve-wracking to take someone's pulse as an act of gratitude.

He placed his fingers on Sylvia's wrist and after several minutes passed by, his nervous expression gradually turned serious.

After some time had passed by he finally let go of her hand and said to Carmelo, "Uncle Carmelo, please come take a look."

Carmelo glanced at his face before asking, "Master Casey, what happened? Is Miss Andrews' pulse abnormal?"
