"Hey, Dad."
The chubby boy pressed the answer button and spoke.
"Milluki, where are you now?"
Silva's deep voice came through the phone.
"Yorknew City." Milluki held the phone with one hand and dug into a snack bag with the other, stuffing a handful of potato chips into his mouth. "Is something up, Dad?"
"Is the target confirmed?"
"Dad, although I can't compare to Brother Illumi in terms of combat power…" Milluki's chubby face showed a defiant expression upon hearing this. "But in terms of intelligence, I believe I'm much smarter than my brothers."
"Is that so?" Silva paused for a moment. "This is your first time out, and it's a target you set yourself, so I won't interfere too much."
"Just be careful."
With that, before Milluki could speak, a "beep" sounded from the phone.
"He hung up."
Milluki looked down at his new phone, pondered for a moment, then put the phone in his pocket and continued to grab snacks and eat voraciously.
But what Milluki didn't notice was that behind the taxi he was riding in, a black sedan was following him closely.
"Ho ho ho…" Inside the black sedan, Tsubone sat in the driver's seat, gripping the steering wheel, and chuckled softly as she looked at the taxi ahead: "It's been seven years since I last went out like this."
"Grandmother." In the passenger seat sat a girl with long black hair draped over her shoulders. "Young Master Milluki doesn't seem to have noticed us at all. His anti-reconnaissance ability…"
Canary's words trailed off midway, but her meaning was already very clear.
"Hmm, I know." Tsubone put away her smile, and a white glare reflected off her monocle. "That's precisely why Master Silva asked us to follow Young Master Milluki."
Screech…
Just as the grandmother and granddaughter were conversing, the taxi in front took a turn, entering a small road off the main avenue, and stopped in front of a tall building.
"Click."
The right rear door of the taxi opened, and Milluki, his mouth covered in snack crumbs, pushed the door open and got out.
After getting out of the car, Milluki first scanned his surroundings. His gaze paused instinctively when it swept over a black sedan parked at the end of a small road not far away.
"A hallucination?"
Milluki frowned, remaining cautious. He then looked up at the towering building in front of him, covered in glass curtain walls.
His target, Sheldon Hill, was in the penthouse office of this building.
Initially, his target had been the mysterious rich man from the TV, but to Milluki's surprise, no matter what methods he used, even infiltrating the police database systems of various countries, he still couldn't find any clues.
It was as if the man had vanished into thin air, leaving no trace.
Fortunately, Milluki had found the person who was with that mysterious rich man at the time.
It was Sheldon Hill, the head of the Umbrella Corporation's Yorknew City branch.
He planned to use this person as a breakthrough, to pry information about the ultimate target and the game he wanted from his mouth.
"Tap…"
Suddenly, a short-haired female employee in a business suit accidentally bumped into Milluki.
"Ah, I'm sorry, little brother."
The short-haired female employee immediately apologized.
However, Milluki ignored her, simply continuing to eat his snacks.
The short-haired female employee saw his indifferent demeanor, breathed a sigh of relief, and walked towards the turnstile at the elevator entrance.
"Eh~?"
But when she reached the turnstile, just as she was about to take out her employee card to swipe and enter, she couldn't find it.
"Beep."
Just as she opened her handbag to rummage for her employee card, Milluki had already used an employee card to swipe past the turnstile. As soon as he entered, he directly flung the employee card backward.
The employee card spun in mid-air, then "clattered" onto the ground in front of the short-haired female employee.
"Ah, so it fell on the ground."
The short-haired female employee heard the sound, looked down at the ground, and saw the employee card lying at her feet.
She picked it up, carefully wiped it, and placed it against the turnstile's card reader.
By this time, Milluki had already taken the elevator up to the penthouse office of the building.
"Ding~"
The top floor arrived. As the elevator doors "creaked" open, Milluki stepped out and walked straight towards the general manager's office.
The top floor of the Yorknew City branch company was divided into two parts: one half was a conference room, and the other half served as the general manager's office and various department managers' offices.
Milluki walked down the corridor, passing numerous department offices, until he reached a corner, where he naturally turned.
Ahead was a fully open door. The nameplate above the door read "General Manager's Office." There was no one guarding the door.
Milluki curled his lip and stepped through the doorway.
As soon as he entered, his eyes lit up.
Milluki scanned his surroundings and realized there was a very spacious hall within the doorway.
"Do you have an appointment?"
Suddenly, a female voice rang out in his ear, asking if he had an appointment.
Milluki turned his head and saw a blonde female secretary in the inner right side of the door. She was currently looking down, busy with documents on her desk.
"Do you have an appointment?"
The blonde female secretary asked again. She didn't even lift her head to see who was at the door.
"I'm here to see Sheldon Hill."
Milluki took out a handkerchief, wiped the snack crumbs from his mouth, and said.
The busy blonde female secretary, upon hearing his young voice, paused her movements. She looked up and forward, only to see a small head with a center-parted hairstyle.
"A child?"
The secretary stood up, looking surprised at the chubby child standing at the doorway.
"Uh, are you Mr. Sheldon's child?" The secretary asked, a hint of doubt in her voice: "Or perhaps his nephew or something?"
Milluki no longer answered, instead striding towards the general manager's office at the end of the hall.
"Eh~ Please wait a moment." The secretary beckoned to him, then picked up a nearby phone receiver. "I'll notify Mr. Sheldon first."
"Mr. Sheldon, a child is here to see you."
"He's already in the hall."
During the time the secretary was on the phone with Sheldon, Milluki had already placed one hand on the solid wood door of the general manager's office and gently pushed with his right arm.
"Tell that child to wait outside for a moment. I need to check…"
"Creak~"
Inside the office, before Sheldon could finish speaking, a "creak" sounded from the doorway.
The thick solid wood door slowly opened. Milluki, pushing the door open with one hand, steadily walked into the luxuriously decorated general manager's office.
"Who are you?"
Sheldon, who was on the phone with his secretary, abruptly hung up. He looked at Milluki, who had appeared at the doorway, and asked with a grave tone.
At this moment, four men in black suits sitting at the other end of the office suddenly stood up. Two of them walked towards Sheldon, while the other two walked towards Milluki with cold expressions.
