"You know who did it? Could it be that you saw that person?!" Reon's friend exclaimed in shock. "If that was true, we might actually survive! Who is it?!"
A cunning grin spread across Reon's lips as he stared at an old man in the distance.
He walked to the old man, who was standing next to a twelve year old girl.
Reon's people followed him, wondering if he really knew the truth or was he only bluffing?
Reon stopped next to the old man. The old man lowered his head respectfully, recognising the influential merchant.
Reon's smirk widened. He observed the young girl next to the old man.
"You're one of our workers, aren't you? Is that girl your granddaughter?"
The old man felt something was wrong, especially since Reon talked about his granddaughter. Reon was said to be an arrogant man who never talked to the one beneath him like this. He usually only hung out with influential people. Why would he suddenly talk to him?
