Payne recalled back then how Bewoh and the grandmaster sealed Donghai's office during that Mirror world incident.
So when Bewoh hinted at it earlier, he immediately understood his task. -- To keep Botan busy.
But how did Bewoh know Botan was carrying evil? Payne had no concept of the 3rd eye and could only go on blind faith.
Unlike the others, he knew the Grandmaster and Bewoh had history with the Kwo's and this Botan guy.
And though there was no evidence, he felt the matter of the couple falling into a coma had something to do with them.
He had opted to investigate, but the Grandmaster rejected his offer.
It indeed made sense, seeing the way the Grandmaster moved from place to place fighting crime.
There were bigger fish out there killing to deal with. And the grandmaster probably had his own plans on the matter after dealing with what he already had on his plate.
Erh-erhm.
Payne coughed lightly, taking a step closer.
