All eyes widened, staring at the blinking red dot on the map. Shock and disbelief spread rapidly.
Kevin Clarkâs grip on his cell phone tightened suddenly, his heart pounding as if it were about to burst out of his chest.
He stared at the red dot displayed on the map, his throat dry and aching, and the corners of his eyes turning gradually red.
After a moment, he swallowed hard and hoarsely said, âJuan Wright, computer.â
Only then did everyone react and look at him. Juan Wright immediately stood up and went to fetch his own computer.
The content on Kevinâs cell phone was synchronized to the computer, and the computer was synchronized to the screen in the meeting room. The location zoomed in. Charlotte Lane was in a small town in the southern part of Continent A.
Everyoneâs gaze shifted from the screen to Kevin Clark. Allonzo Hobson exclaimed, âSheâs really there! Holy shit, Kevin⦠This is unbelievable.â
Luke also couldnât help but nod in admiration.
Continent A had always been their main focus of surveillance, so when it was pinpointed in Continent A, Luke didnât hold out for too much hope.
He came here just to carry out his orders.
It was truly unexpected that Edward Kirsten had actually chosen this place for his lair.
Continent Aâs area is vast and its geography diverse. It took a long time to explore even after narrowing down the search to the southern and eastern regions.
Especially since Edward Kirsten was so adept at hiding and disguising both people and places.
Charlotte Laneâs location was provided just in time.
âThird Masterâ¦â Juan Wright looked at his computer and said, âTeacher gave the positioning and routes, and we can see where she has been with the locator.â
âTake a look,â Kevin Clark said in a deep voice.
Juan Wright tapped a few keys on the keyboard, pressed Enter, and a clear route map appeared.
It started from the Rose Garden, winding through many places before finally reaching a temporary resting place.
After staying at the temporary resting place for a long time, the movement continued all the way to Continent Aâ¦
Meanwhile, in Continent A, Charlotte Lane sent her location to them, then wedged the button-like locator in a crack between the restroom wall tiles. She then fixed the pendant and wound the red rope back up its original form little by little.
As she did so, she thought about the people in Imperial Capital.
She didnât think too much about the others, but Kevin Clark must have been gritting his teeth, cursing her as a âstinky girlâ in his heart as he looked at her photo.
As this thought crossed her mind, Charlotte Lane lifted the corner of her mouth slightly, restored the pendant, hung it around her neck, and then left the restroom to sleep.
She slept soundly.
Meanwhile, the group at Imperial Capital stared at her moving route map for nearly two hours, even with the fast-forward feature. It took two hours just to get a rough idea of the process.
Then, everyone summed it up with one sentence.
With Edward Kirstenâs circuitous routes, it would be difficult for them to find him even if he didnât disguise himself on the road.
But Kevin Clark still found him.
âEnlarge the part on Continent A,â Kevin Clark said.
Juan Wright did as instructed.
Now, the map they were looking at was the one showing all the routes after they had stopped.
The blue routes on the map, as some places had been visited repeatedly, were winding and winding, looking like a random scribble on the map with a pen.
At first glance, it looked like a messy bundle of lines.
However, everyone present had excellent memories, and just by looking once, they had memorized Charlotte Laneâs movements over the past few days.
Kevin Clark took Juan Wrightâs computer and moved his mouse, saying, âHere⦠This should be where they live.â
âThatâs right. Once Brook Sister arrived in Continent A, she went straight to this area,â Allonzo Hobson said. âIt must be the living quarters.â
The living quarters had the most blue lines and the messiest.
With the current blinking red dot as the target, by removing the extra blue lines, they could determine that she had been to eight locations. The lines connecting these eight locations should be the approximate area of the residence.
The clearest part of the blue line was the open area to the southeast of the residence. It was a single circle that measured the area of a certain place.
The next clear part was a mountain far away from the living quarters.
Allonzo Hobson said, âBased on the timeline, Brook Sister stayed on this mountain for at least two weeks. This mountainâ¦â
âThe Kingsley Familyâs laboratory,â William Lane said.
Kevin Clark silently agreed.
âHoly shit!â Allonzo Hobson exclaimed. âItâs incredible that the laboratory is set up in the mountain.â
Hugo Clark pointed to the single circle and said, âThis place could be a training field or something like that. But compared to the living quarters⦠the area might be a little too small. Even if there are multiple floors, it wouldnât fit many people.â
Kevin Clark scrolled the map with his mouse. The cursor landed on the southwest: âThere should be another location here. Or the northeast and northwest areas as well. Surrounding and protecting the residence.â
Everyone looked at the screen and fell silent for a while. Allonzo Hobson then said, âSo, can we leave now to pick up Brook Sister? We have found the location of the laboratory, and she has also provided her location to us. Shall we go?â
Kevin Clark looked at the map without saying anything.
When it came to finding Charlotte Lane, he had been more anxious than anyone. But now that she had been found, he fell silent.
William Lane looked at Allonzo Hobson, âWhy are you more anxious than me, her brother?â
Allonzo Hobson raised his eyebrows, âWell, Brook Sister⦠I practically watched her grow upâ¦â
Everyone looked at Allonzo Hobson.
Even Kevin Clark looked up at him.
Allonzo Hobson swallowed back his words, then changed the subject, âBrook Sister is really amazing. She managed to sync her location to so many peopleâs phones. Impressive, right?â
No one responded to him.
Allonzo Hobson turned to Robinson Scott.
Robinson Scott pursed his lips, then forced out four words through clenched teeth: âYes, very impressive.â
Allonzo Hobson laughed.
Luke glanced at Robinson Scott and also chuckled, thinking: Evil people always find their match.
He felt that all of Robinson Scottâs thorns had been smoothed out.
â¦
In Continent A, Charlotte Lane rested for two days at the living quarters before following Edward Kirsten to the laboratory.
At the laboratory, she began doing her own experiments, and Edward Kirsten did not stop her.
Because they were more focused on the experiments, their time together was harmonious.
Three days later, while Charlotte was working on her experiments, Alice Eugene arrived.
Edward Kirsten followed Alice Eugene out of the laboratory, and Charlotte glanced at them before continuing with her experiment.
Outside the laboratory, Alice Eugene lowered her voice and said, âMr. Kirsten, weâve discovered people from Dark Radiance.â
Edward Kirsten looked in the direction of the laboratory and clucked his tongue. âThey just wonât behave.â
Then he asked, âAre there many people? Have they found Kevin Clark?â
âThere are quite a few, but we havenât seen Kevin Clark yet,â Alice Eugene replied. âEnigma Starry exposed her location, and she still had a locator on her.â
Edward Kirsten laughed, âWait until we find Kevin Clarkâs whereabouts, and then make a move.â
âYes,â Alice Eugeneâs eyes flashed with excitement.
