412_2 Removing the Firewood

Butler Rinto replied, "A sailor who has been missing for many days was found dead in the cabin today. The police have sealed off the cargo ship. If the cargo cannot set sail tomorrow as scheduled, a heavy penalty for breach of contract must be paid. The loss to the company would be disastrous."

A life lost is a severe issue that is difficult to settle.

Silvia Hayes looked at Linden Sky, "What should we do now?"

Linden Sky took a sip of tea, seemingly untroubled.

The phone rang again at that moment. Everyone tensed, fearing more bad news.

Butler Rinto glanced at Linden Sky before going to answer the phone.

The call turned out to be from the gatekeeper, a man named Yapiter wanted to see the current manager of the Rinto's household.

Butler Rinto moved the phone aside, turned around and told Linden Sky, "Yapiter is Master Woods' assistant."

Linden Sky nodded, "Bring him in."

Two minutes later, Yapiter entered the hall. Butler Rinto introduced him to Linden Sky.
