Chapter 64

In the middle of the meeting. Curtis started introducing a kid. It was somewhat amazing, but since Curtis was the higher- ranking, everyone else just had to sit quietly and smile awkwardly at Quinlyn.

Some people leaned in out of curiosity. The kid has tanned skin, a pointed chin, and big eyes–cute, but not exactly adorable like the chubby kids running around the neighborhood, someone wondered

As soon as the greetings were done. Quinlyn’s clear, calm voice came through “Curtis, Im in a temple. There’s a cultural relics smuggling operation going on, and hundreds of elementary school kids are involved. Thope you can help us

The conference room went dead silent for a second. Everyone else thought they’d misheard

Curtis’s smile quickly faded, and he started firing off questions. “What’s your location? How many people are involved? Have you seen any specific relics?”

The others thought those questions seemed way too complicated for a kid, but then they were shocked.

She explained everything so clearly that everyone was stunned.

But Curtis slammed his hand on the table and said in a deep voice, “She won’t make a mistake. Inform our units to send officers, cooperate with her, and check if any recent tomb raids focused on porcelain

Seeing how serious he was, everyone got to work, even though they were very shocked that he trusted Quinlyn so much.
