'What's going on? How on earth...'

Rockefeller was momentarily flustered but soon regained his composure.

'I can't panic. The novel's content is not wrong. What I know is everything.'

He was firm in that thought.

'Even if I don't understand something right now, I shouldn't panic and should only think according to the facts I know. In that sense, it's correct that Ricardo's twin sister, the head of the Ismail family, died a long time ago.'

Then how should he view this situation?

Rockefeller thought only of the facts given in the novel.

'He has a thousand faces, so he must be very free to cross-dress or dress as a man. So, if he appeared separately, it would be correct to see him as the same person. But...'

The problem was that both Ricardo and his sister were present at the same time.

'What on earth is the case when they're together? Surely one of them must be Ricardo?'

Rockefeller had no doubt that the person he took as his assistant was the head of the Ismail family.

He was exactly as described in the novel, and the events that had happened so far could only be explained if he was the head.

'But even if he wasn't the head, if he was from the Ismail side, it would still explain everything.'

"Come in for now. I came looking for you because I have something urgent to say."

Then Ricardo spoke to his sister, who had brought him.

"Wait outside. It'll be over soon."

"Okay, then I'll wait outside."

Rockefeller, who had been quietly listening to their conversation, stepped forward.

"You don't have to do that."

At his words, Ricardo reacted.

"Is it really okay? It seems that Mr. Rockefeller would be somewhat uncomfortable..."

"I'm fine. It's late at night, and it would be rude to have the lady wait outside."

"There are soldiers outside the store, so it's safe."

"Still, she's your lovely sister. I can't treat her like that. It's not a big deal, so please wait here for a moment."

At Rockefeller's kindness, Ricardo's sister spoke.

"Then I'll wait here."

With Ricardo's sister left on the first floor, the two of them headed straight to the second floor.

A moment later.

Rockefeller, who had settled separately, temporarily put aside his doubts about them and began to talk about his meeting with Ismail earlier.

"I met with Ismail earlier. They* suddenly came looking for me." [T/N: Since that persons gender was not clarified expect for a womans voice Ill be using they]

"You met with Ismail?"

While speaking, Rockefeller checked his reaction just in case.

He didn't think his inner thoughts would be revealed here since he was good at managing his expressions, but he still wanted to check just in case.

'But looking at his reaction, it doesn't seem like he's too worried... Then is the person I met earlier really from the Ismail side?'

"Yes, but there wasn't much talk there. They just said that they would watch from the side to see how things go with Sinclair. That was all the conversation, and there was no other talk."

At that, Ricardo showed a rather dull reaction.

"I see."

Rockefeller, who seemed to have found him for a rather trivial reason, opened his mouth again to quell the situation.

"But I was a bit confused about whether the person who came was Ismail. So, I came to talk about it late at night."

"Oh, I see. No wonder... But I've already talked to several places, so if someone came, they must be from Ismail."

"Is that so?"

"I can't be sure, but probably?"

"Well, if you say so. After all, there's no one else to come looking for us."

"Do you know how they approached you?"

"How did they approach me? Honestly, I only heard their voice. I didn't see who they were."

"Then it's not Sinclair's way. And it's not Tepez's way either."

"That's true. I've heard that such a method is always Ismail's way."

"Then wouldn't it be the people from Ismail's side? I don't think anyone else would approach like that. At least, Sinclair and Tepez are places that insist on their own ways."

"Then I guess that's the right way to see it."

Through the conversation just now, Rockefeller was able to somewhat confirm the identity of the person he had met earlier.

"Besides, it seems like I made a fuss over nothing. It wasn't that big of a deal when I think about it."

"No, depending on the situation, it's a matter of life and death, so I can fully understand your sensitive reaction."

Taking advantage of the situation.

Having met like this, Rockefeller decided to ask about the sister he had brought.

'I just met someone from Ismail's side. So, who is that girl? She can't really be his sister.'

"By the way, I just found out that you have a twin sister. Why didn't you tell me? She's such a beautiful woman."

Ricardo replied with a dry expression.

"I didn't mention my sister. I have only one sister."

"She's quite a beauty. I was surprised when I saw her earlier."

"Are you interested?"
