Durin's Diary

Durin stroked the black cat on the armrest of his chair, sitting on the black leather sofa. Through the glasses perched on his nose, his gaze passed over the long table in front of him and settled on the man kneeling on the carpet: "I understand, you've made money in Naples, your business has been very successful, and you've led a happy life. You've had those secret police, friends in both the law and the underground, and even the Royal Family speaking on your behalf." "You don't need a friend like me, I know that. You're afraid of owing me a favor, and you don't want to get involved in troubles." "But now you come to me and say, 'I beg you, Mr. Durin of the Corleon family, please help me seek justice, so that my life and my family will not suffer and sink into despair.' Yet, in your eyes, I was nothing more than a second-rate artist involved in movies and music. Even at the brink of death, you still show me such disrespect, not even willing to call me by my title... Keeper of Secrets."

Chapter 197: After the Event

When Durin arrived at Wolfsburg, it was almost five in the afternoon.

In the hotel where his grandfather was staying, Durin saw the young men of the Lynx wearing the uniform of the Eastern Territory military police. Some recognized Durin, and immediately someone went to inform Elder Yishu.

Durin didn't go upstairs but went to meet the lord of Wolfsburg instead. He looked haggard, which clearly showed it had been a long day for him.

"It's an honor to see you at this moment, Mosby Richter, Earl," said the old man with gray hair as he extended his hand.

Durin shook his hand, "Sorry for the late arrival."

"I've heard about the great things you've done in the South; you've helped us a lot." The old man's gratitude was genuine as he spoke.

"I was helping myself," Durin said, and noticing the approaching petite lady, he reached out his hand, "Chief Detective Melissa, what brings you here?"
