Chapter 893: Lady White
After Tsuchimikado Motoharu left, Su Xiao closed the curtains and locked the door. Based on the clues so far, the Necronomicon was in the hands of the Kihara clan. The Kihara clan was a large group directly under the Board of Directors in Academy City, with over four thousand members.
Most of these four thousand were non-combatant researchers, with only a few hundred having combat abilities, primarily members of the Hound Dogs. If Su Xiao moved against the Kihara clan, Aleister might intervene. However, Su Xiao was beyond caring. If he couldn't obtain the Necronomicon, he was as good as dead. Faced with life or death, why should he fear Aleister?
Moreover, Aleister rarely left his Windowless Building. Even if Su Xiao annihilated the Kihara clan, Aleister would most likely send subordinates to deal with him rather than intervene personally. Unless Aleister was willing to abandon his long-planned grand scheme, he wouldn't act directly. Compared to that scheme, the Kihara clan was insignificant.
Ss—
Su Xiao's portable radio crackled to life.
"It seems the Kihara clan is your obstacle," Aleister's voice came through the radio. He had heard Su Xiao's conversation with Tsuchimikado Motoharu through the space transmission lines.
"Yes. Are you going to intervene?"
"This will disrupt my plan, affecting steps 2034 to 2265. Stop."
Aleister's voice was devoid of emotion.
