Chapter 266 - 266: Ready to Reap Benefits
However, old Matsuda wasn't using a direct League computer; instead, he was on a plane, using his exclusive permissions to check Cain's information.
As a result, the connection was very slow, giving Team Rocket enough time to maneuver.
Perhaps it was all a matter of luck. If Cain had notified Umbra right after showering, his identity might have been exposed, as old Matsuda has the authority to do so.
But now, everything turned out well. When old Matsuda closed his old laptop with satisfaction, he couldn't hide the smile on his face.
A talent!
No, a genius!
Cain had considered that, upon returning to the League, someone might come looking for him, given that what he did aboard the S.S. Anne was no small feat. And even more so, he had left the ship before the League's help arrived. Although he hadn't done anything wrong, he had certainly raised some suspicions.
But Cain would never have imagined that everything he did had been suppressed by old Matsuda.
Exiting the bathroom, Cain rubbed his hair with a dry towel to remove the excess water, then plugged in his phone to charge. As soon as he turned it on, he received an avalanche of messages. Most were from Steven, and a few from Whitney.
In this life, the only people with whom Cain has had any connection, who could barely be considered friends, are Steven and Whitney.
After putting on a clean robe and drying his hair, Cain used the room's video phone to call Steven directly.
