Chapter 65 Eduard's Shock
"What Mr. Smith?"
Boyd was impatient, but seeing that it was the Mr. Newman's secretary, he pushed down his irritation.
The secretary stroked her hair and said with some confusion, "Mr. Newman said there was a Mr. Smith
looking for him, and he was in the hall, did he leave?"
Boyd remembered the two men from before, and then shook his head.
Two employees of the Saunders Group couldn't even request an appointment, let alone get in touch
with Mr. Newman directly.
"There's no Mr. Smith here, so he should have left."
"Okay, I'll let Mr. Newman know."
After saying that, the secretary twisted her waist and found Ashley, "Mr. Newman, Mr. Smith is not here
anymore."
Ashley frowned, a look of displeasure on his face. Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
What kind of big shot is this? He could not even wait for a while.
Although he was somewhat scornful of these people from the provincial capital, he naturally wouldn't
try to please them.
"Forget it, don't bother, since they left of their own accord, that's not my fault, I'll just tell commissioner."
After that, he made a call to commissioner.
"Commissioner, Mr. Smith has left."
"Go to him and make sure you do not to him, got it?"
"Commissioner, I don't think this is necessary, perhaps he did not have nothing to do now.”
Ashley said with a smile, but was promptly interrupted.
"The news is from the governor, and now I think you understand what I mean."
commissioner's words caused Ashley to faintly stare.
Wasn't this the cloth ambassador in charge of Stone City, and how was there another one?
Not true!
"Governor Porter?"
Ashley swallowed hard.
Who else could it be that could make the commissioner address governor, naturally it was Governor
Porter of Q State!
"Well, it's good that you understand, now go and see him. Careful, you don't want what happened to
the Duncan family to happen all over again on you, do you?"
Ashley was stunned.
He had naturally heard about the Duncan family, and even knew some secret stories that many people
didn't know.
For example, it was a great figure from the Ministry of War who exerted direct pressure, and that time
even John arrived in person, and the commissioner of Stone City did not have any qualifications.
"Which one?"
Ashley muttered a question, but to find that the other side had already hung up the phone.
The secretary kept her eyes on Ashley and waited for the other man to come back to his senses before
asking, "Mr. Newman, what should we do now?"
"What else can we do, hurry up and arrange for a car to go to Kingsang Building!"
He did know that the one lived in none other than Kingsang Building.
What he just didn't know was that something was happening on the other end that would cause him
extreme headaches.
Inside the Safety Department.
Alfie was sitting leisurely outside waiting for news.
In his opinion, his subordinates would be able to contact him in a moment, and then he could see the
wretched posture of that Crane and Matthew kneeling down and begging for mercy.
Without realizing it, Crane was currently sitting in one of the larger offices of the Safety Department.
Eduard Moss, the head of the Stone City's Safety Department, was currently stepping forward with his
tea.
"Mr. Smith, this is a fine tea that I picked up on my previous trip."
"Um, okay."
Crane took the tea and after tasting it , he shook his head slightly and said, "You are impatient, and this
fine tea is kind of spoiled by you."
"It's considered good for ordinary people, but for those who really know how to taste tea, it is bad."
He put down the tea in his hand.
Eduard did not look angry, he was very clear that Crane was nudging himself to behave in a calm and
peaceful manner.
In fact, Eduard's kung fu wasn't top but it wasn't too bad either, but Crane's arrival made him
completely flustered.
If he hadn't seen Crane's picture from commissioner himself, he wouldn't have been able to recognize
Crane, and would have only let such a Boss-level existence slip out of sight, and by then his Safety
Department would have been turned upside down.
When he thought about it, he couldn't help but take a deep breath, and he instantly felt that he had
really gotten lucky this time.
"Mr. Smith, what about that kid Alfie?"
Eduard suddenly remembered Alfie, who was brainless and actually clashed with Crane.
"That guy is just an inadequate pawn."
Crane said unconcernedly, "I'm more concerned about the people behind his uncle."
"Aston Smith?"
Eduard raised an eyebrow.
As the head of the Safety Department, his ability to grasp intelligence and gather information was
nothing less than the top in Stone City, and he had detailed knowledge of every move from Aston's
entry until now.
Crane nodded slightly.
"Aston was sort of a follower of mine back then, but he betrayed me and is now a favorite of my
stepmother, and has come to Stone City supposedly to deal with me, but by no means is that his true
purpose."
"Or maybe dealing with me is his purpose, but he has other tasks on him given by the Smith family."
"I think you should be very interested in this task."
"What task?"
Eduard asked curiously.
This was about the Smith family, which was not within his scope of management, so Eduard was also
rather puzzled.
Crane smiled faintly and spat out two words-
"Black market."
"......"
Eduard stood up, revealing an unbelievable look.
"If it's the black market alone, you shouldn't say that, Mr. Smith, do you mean that kind of black
market?"
Crane smiled noncommittally.
Eduard felt his scalp tingle at once.
The ordinary black market, at best, circulates controlled knives, or antiques and other such things.
But that type of black market, which traffics in things that are against humanity, has always been
cracked down on ten or even a hundred times harder than the ordinary black market.
The slightest hint of it is pulled out instantly, both at home and abroad.
And it is the most heavily regulated in the country, how can it still be there when it's basically been
pulled clean for so many years.
"The Smith family, right, a powerful family standing in a cosmopolitan city, especially after the death of
the last Smith family at the helm, the Smith family's style of doing things has gone completely to the
opposite, even to the extreme."
"They might not have dared to do such a thing in the past, but now that the Lawson family's prestige is
weakening among Q State and the Watson family, an unstable element, is growing stronger, is the
Smith family preparing to cooperate with the Watson family?"
