Max motioned for the meeting to be adjourned and took out his phone and glanced at it. Confirming
that the message was what Jared needed exactly, he immediately walked out of the conference room
and made a phone call. “Mr. Johnston, it is me. Lucifer’s proxy account is online again.”
Jared’s hands clenched the steering wheel as he slammed on the brake. His car came to a stop as the
tires screeched loudly in protest. He narrowed his eyes and asked, “Where is the location?”
Max was stunned when he opened the detailed coordinates. “How-how is that possible?”
Jared frowned. “What is wrong?”
“It is in front of the Royal Creek Institute, in your café!”
“What?” Jared was shocked.
He never expected that the person he had been trying to track down was now in his café. He searched
high and low, only to find the target was in a place where he least expected. A smile crept up his face
with a Hunter-like look in his eyes. He performed a sharp U-turn and drove toward the Royal Creek
Institute while issuing a command. “Max, ask the staff to keep an eye on everyone and don’t let anyone
leave until I arrive.” Max knew how long his boss had been looking for this target. He immediately did
what was told.
Jared looked grave. He drove at the fastest speed possible and arrived in front of the Royal Creek
Institute, then he threw the car key to the jockey and strode into his café.
Seeing Jared coming in, his staff quickly said, “Max has instructed us. We are organizing a special
event, and no one is leaving.” Jared nodded. He looked at the people in the café, and suddenly his
eyes fell on the spot where Nicole usually sat. There was still a cup of coffee on the table. “Did Miss
Riddle come before?” A staff member followed his gaze and nodded with a smile.
“Yes, but she left before Max called. Are you looking for her?” Jared’s gaze deepened at hearing that.
But since the time did not match, he did not suspect Nicole.
He gazed at the people in the café, trying to find out who was suspicious as soon as possible. The café
was in a strategic location, and it was during peak hours with a dozen people going online on their
laptops.
The program he wrote could pinpoint the coordinates, but because there were too many connections to
the café’s Wi-Fi network, there was no way to tell which computer it was. Jared let out a frosty smile at
the thought that Lucifer might be among these people. He would definitely catch him.
“Find out what was on their computers in ten minutes.”
If it was Lucifer, he surely had hacking software on his computer. The staff in his café were actually IT
elites who disguised themselves as waitstaff. So computer hacking was a piece of cake for them. A
waiter at the counter immediately swung into action, his fingers typed on the keyboard rapidly as he
started searching and screening. After a moment, the waiter said with a grave look on his face.
“Mr. Johnston, they are only ordinary students. I found nothing suspicious in their computers.”
“How can that be?” Max had already sent him the coordinates. It was impossible to make a mistake.
