Beyond the Divorce

Cane received a message that Stella walked straight to Navi's residence upon returning to Trestlewood. A van left Navi's estate just now and proceeded directly to the airport.

This news caught us off guard.

A van?

I looked at Atlas a bit uneasily. "...Is it possible that..."

Atlas didn't answer me but fell into deep thought.

"Sir, should we send someone to intercept?" Cane asked Atlas.

"No! Just keep an eye on her! Don't intervene!" Atlas paced back and forth momentarily, then suddenly said to Cane, "Fight fire with fire! Arrange for a car to create the illusion that we're returning to Trestlewood. Switch cars at the Hingmiles Creek intersection. Warn them to be cautious-there's bound to be an attack!"

Cane immediately arranged everything. We hastily left the inn, got into the car, and headed straight for Trestlewood.

I looked at Atlas in the car and asked, "Are you still sure that the person is in the base, not in Trestlewood?"
