Chapter 372: Volume VI - Chapter 5: A Nostalgic Apartment

I was only halfway to Sue's apartment when my watch started to ring. I quickly opened it without looking to see who it was.

On the screen in front of me was Ronald Potenbea. He was about to open his mouth and speak when someone else joined the call, and then someone else.

The trio I had spoken to only a few minutes ago were now back in front of me.

Ronald coughed a little, then continued his interrupted words.

"Paul Demens left your sister's apartment and headed straight for his home. But... he doesn't appear on any CCTV footage after getting on a bus when he should have arrived by now. He's not on the bus either. Just like you said, he vanished into thin air."

I clicked my tongue.

Why did he run away when he didn't know anything, when he didn't even realize I was looking for him? I was never hostile toward him.

He couldn't have realized so quickly that someone was after him, that he was being investigated... could he?
