After consoling the daughter, Ezra turned to the manager's wife, who seemed rather haggard after the shock.

"Why didn't you call the police?" Though he didn't want to interrupt her and do some investigations at this moment, he had to.

The corner of her eyes went red immediately, "Honestly, I thought he was only plagued by illness. He was such an amiable man and I did not think things could be so complicated."

Ezra glanced at her and asked, "Did he leave you any message? Or any letters?"

The woman shook her head with a sad face, "No. He just said he wanted to go out for a walk, and he never returned."

Ezra, abstaining from asking anything more, stood up and said, "I hope you can have some good rest and get better. You still have a daughter to look after. If you find anything when arranging his belongings, please do call us."

"Okay." The woman nodded, propping against the bed in a weak manner, and said, "Goodbye, Mr. Cantillo."

After Ezra and his assistant left the manager's house, his assistant sighed, "What should we do now? Mr. Cantillo?"

Ezra asked, "Where's Anna?"

His assistant said with contempt, "In a bar."

It was already the middle of the night after Ezra had come all the way from Grafstin.

But it was also a time when the bar was most boisterous, a time that Anna loved the most.
