Chapter 178: More Money No Problem
A small formation needs more help than a large formation.
-Dante Alighieri-
The moment we opened the boarding house’s front door and stepped inside, Mrs. Hudson greeted us.
“Was everything all right?”
“Yes. The Butler Agency people were looking after this and that. Perhaps because of what happened earlier…”
Mrs. Hudson trailed off and glanced sideways.
On the first floor of the boarding house, two Butler Agency agents with expressionless faces and three inspectors from Scotland Yard were holding their posts at a proper distance from each other.
The inspectors were guarding this place because earlier, a swarm of intruders had rushed in and attempted to steal the Vatican Cameos.
Meanwhile, the Butler Agency agents seemed to be waiting here under Mycroft’s orders to provide the help I needed to steal the Vermilion Phoenix’s egg.
