1461 Trailing To The Source.

'What are you trying to do?' Ravager inquired.

'There is more than meets the eye in this case, and it will be a shame if we let it go like this.' Felix answered.

'I also think the same.'

'Good, I am planning to use Arion as a bait, and we can kick off a new case if we managed to find the person behind his situation if there is any.'

'I don't have a problem with that.'

Ravager was more than pleased with this as it enabled him to continue on his little secret revenge plot as well.

...

The sprawling streets of the capital were bustling as always and amidst this labyrinth, Arion Delmar stood, seemingly aimless and bereft of purpose.

The passing spirits hardly paid him any attention, most of them engrossed in their own affairs.

At a nondescript junction, Felix and Ravager positioned themselves, blending seamlessly with the surroundings, waiting to see the course Arion would take.

Alas, days passed, and Arion's movements were aimless, sometimes meandering, sometimes sitting for hours on end, as if waiting for something to ignite a spark within him.

Since Felix and Ravager had day shift with their squad, Felix had to leave following Arion to Sekiro.

Unfortunately, days went by and no one had appeared to pick up Arion.

'Maybe he has caused this upon himself.' Ravager sighed in frustration at the lack of results.

'It can't be, you have read about his past. He valued his safety and comfort more than anything.' Felix shook his head.

After going through his past information, they collected some data, but nothing too deep since the device couldn't show private Intel to just anyone in the government.

Because they were working on this off the record, they couldn't even interrogate the people around him.

'Well, no one is taking the bait, and we can't commit to this case without any decent leads.' Ravager warned, 'Those two b*tches keep solving cases, and we can't accept anything until we conclude this.'

While Ravager wanted to get revenge on his sister, he knew that it would be ten times easier by becoming a captain...He didn't want to lose his chance chasing after a false lead.
