Bab 162: It's A Win-Win.

Hal looked down at the important-looking letter on the table that separated him and Eugene. On the seal, he could make out an 'AP' insignia.

When Eugene said he was leaving, Hal had to admit that it took him by surprise, however, 

"I'm guessing you are not just here to tell me you're leaving without even explaining why you were here in the first place" He said but judging from Eugene's expression, the older man was only here for the former.

Hal had to admit that he was upset. 

If Eugene could take the time to come then he had better yet open his mouth and speak up right now.

He was about to show his frustration when Eugene sighed, 

"It's a long story..." He said and Hal waited for him to begin and so Eugene told his tale.
