Chapter 188
There was a snap, and the bearded man threw the clipboard in his hand on the table before
asking coldly, âAre you here for dinner or what? If youâre here to look for trouble, then youâve come to the wrong place!â
âKale, whatâs going on?â
The proprietorâs wife came over after placing a steaming bowl of fish stew on a table.
âOh, Mr. Calcraft is here.â
When the old woman saw Nash, an excited smile appeared on her face.
Seeing the sour expression on the bearded manâs face, she hurriedly said, âKale, this is a friend of Dr. Tannerâs. He even had dinner with the richest man of Jonford in our restaurant!â
âI see.â
The bearded man picked up the clipboard from the table and limped toward the kitchen.
âHeâs my nephew. He accidentally broke his leg while climbing a tree when he was young and grew up with a bad temper. You donât have to lower yourself to his level, Mr. Calcraft,â the old woman said apologetically.
âItâs okay. Iâd like to invite the proprietor to have a few drinks with me. Is this a good time?â Nash was worried that the bearded man would escape to the back of the kitchen, so he winked at Jupiter and Angelica.
Angelica did not understand what Nash was trying to say. Jupiter asked with a smile, âGood lady, whereâs the toilet?â
The old woman pointed in the direction of the kitchen. âThe toilet is outside the kitchen. You can go out from the back of the kitchen to get there!â
Hearing this, Angelica immediately stood up and said, âI need to go too.â
With that, the two of them left for the kitchen.
If the bearded man was really a member of Sky Blade Group, neither Jupiter nor Angelica were his opponents.
Thinking this, Nash stood up and said, âMy stomach also feels a little queasy. Iâm going to line up for the toilet.â
The moment he reached the kitchen, the proprietor who was carrying a pot of shredded potatoes almost collided with Nash.
When the man saw the person in front of him, he exclaimed in astonishment, âM-Mr. Calcraft, are you here for dinner again?â
He parted the curtains at the door and looked outside to see if Brian and Walter had also come.
Nash smiled lightly. âIâm going to the toilet.â
He then walked toward the kitchen door.
Outside the kitchen was a courtyard, and there was a male and female public toilet in the
corner of the courtyard.
Jupiter and Angelica were blocking the bearded man together.
âWesley, we know itâs you!â
Jupiter knew Wesley was a skilled person and already had one hand on the holster around his
waist.
Wesley glanced at Jupiter blankly. âMy name is Kale!â
Jupiter retorted coldly, âKale or Wesley, I hope youâll join us for a walk.â
Wesleyâs dull eyes suddenly took on a sharp edge. He then immediately moved toward the two -meter-high wall.
A cripple possessing such agility seemed to confirm that he was Wesley.
âTrying to run,
huh?â
Angelic snorted coldly. She picked up her feet and chased after him while Jupiter followed closely.
Kale crossed over to the wall in two or three steps before jumping over the wall with a backflip.
Jupiter and Angelica jumped and grabbed the edge of the wall, pulling themselves over it.
Very soon, the sound of fighting was heard behind the wall.
Nash was about to follow them when the proprietor suddenly came out. âMr. Calcraft, there were two guests who needed to use the toilet just now. The public toilet is relatively small, so there are only two separate toilets. Let me take you to my house for convenienceâs sake.â
When the proprietor heard the fighting behind the fence, his expression changed suddenly.
Soon, the fighting stopped.
Jupiter and Angelica walked in through a large iron gate while pushing the cuffed bearded man.
The proprietor asked nervously, âKale⦠Who⦠Who are you guys?â
Jupiter took out his ID. âWeâre from the Inspection Department. We suspect Kale is connected to the explosion that took place at the Lewis familyâs estate!â
The manâs eyes widened in disbelief. âYou⦠You made a mistake. Kale has been living with us since he came back from the countryside. How could he be behind such a crime?â
Jupiter answered solemnly, âIs he Kale or Wesley?â
