Chapter 269: Old Friends and Cold Justice
The next day.
Mio had just woken up and stepped out of his room when he found a shadow soldier standing silently outside the door. Upon seeing Mio, the shadow soldier immediately knelt on one knee, presenting a folded note with both hands.
Taking the note, Mio waved his hand, prompting the soldier to vanish into the shadows.
Opening the note, Mio's eyes scanned the content—two locations were written down.
One of them detailed the whereabouts of Tiger.
"It seems Tiger really did escape from Mary Geoise," Mio muttered, touching his chin in surprise. Honestly, he hadn't placed much faith in Tiger pulling off such a feat. Originally, it had been a gamble—if it failed, he would've had Renee intervene, or even send a shadow soldier to extract Tiger directly. Of course, that would risk exposing the operations of the Linglong Newspaper.
Still, things had worked out.
Tiger hadn't let him down after all.
"Well then, let's go meet this 'old friend.'" Mio smirked faintly.
After washing up and having breakfast, he headed to the deck.
A seagull was perched at the bow of the ship, holding a newspaper in its beak. It tilted its head inquisitively, as if asking Mio if he wanted a copy.
