After sending away Miss Emma, Stone glanced at Lu Ban.
Rather than saying Lu Ban came to aid in his investigation, it seemed more like Lu Ban came to increase the difficulty for him.
Lu Ban's mouth would spill everything, whether it should be said or not, and despite Stone having known Lu Ban before and being mentally prepared for it, he still found it somewhat overwhelming.
Thinking back on how Cui Siter and Lu Ban used to work together, he must have suffered a lot.
Reviewing the text in his notebook once more, Stone exhaled deeply, suppressing the urge to take out his pipe.
"Miss Emma seems quite aware of Gaude's identity, indicating that Gaude hasn't hidden much. He came in contact with the previous owner of the villa, acted as an intermediary to help Bronning purchase the place, and was also Bronning's business partner, responsible for handling some underground matters," he said.
