Bab 446: 446

William Cole smiled, neither confirming nor denying it, "Mr. Kramer, you're joking. I'm not as crafty as you think."

"Hehe."

Old Mr. Kramer chuckled, not dwelling on the subject. He leaned back in the wooden armchair, "The Kramer family has welcomed some new faces. I've caught a few and interrogated them harshly."

"I must admit, they are tight-lipped. They'd rather die than reveal who sent them."

"But it's not hard to guess. Capital City used to be relatively stable. Who would dare to spy on the Four Great Families?" Old Mr. Kramer squinted at William Cole, his words already clear enough.

William Cole continued to play dumb, "Who would be so bold?"

"I am not sure, could be some rising stars. Their guts might not seem large, but once they act, they will undoubtedly be ruthless…" Old Mr. Kramer shook his head gently, then broke into a violent cough that seemed as if it would hack his lungs out.
