“I don’t care whether you believe it or not. That’s your problem and it has nothing to do with the rest of us.”

Eustace didn’t even bother to show him any respect.

“Bring Sophie in, Danny. Stop wasting time here.”

“Yes, Captain Sheppard.” Danny led Sophie in at once.

Eustace completely ignored Zachary while the latter simmered with anger.

You will become a laughing stock if you continue throwing a tantrum here.

“I heard Captain Sheppard has recently solved several big cases in a row, Captain Zeldon. Do you think it has something to do with this young lady?”

Initially, the capability of both teams was comparable.

Recently, however, Eustace and his squad had been so efficient that they solved several major cases in a row, thus earning the approval of the higher-ups.

Zachary glared at his subordinate who asked that question.

“What are you thinking? Solving cases depends on capability. What does that have to do with a little girl?” Having unwavering faith in his prowess, he never took anyone seriously.

“As the saying goes, Captain, there would be no fire without smoke. Our teams were evenly matched in terms of capability, but now they are much better than us. How can there be no reason behind that at all?”

Zachary was about to leave but changed his mind after hearing what his subordinate said. Instead, he found a stool and sat down, curious to see what trick Eustace had up his sleeve.

Danny brought Sophie into the room filled with high-tech gadgets.

“Well? Have you ever seen these things before? Do you know how to use them?” Though Sophie was technologically savvy, those were the most cutting-edge devices. She, as an ordinary high school student, may not be familiar with them.

Sophie turned to glance at him.

“Are you looking down on me, Danny?”

These old things? I’d already seen them two years ago.

Danny scratched the back of his head. “That’s not what I meant. It’s just that these devices are new, and we only got them a few days ago. Even I’m unfamiliar with them, so I’m worried you might not know how to use them. It’s great if you do.”

I didn’t mean to underestimate her!

Sophie ignored him and found a spot to sit down.

“Have you managed to track down anything?”

The higher-ups must regard this case with great importance, given the missing person’s political position.
“I don’t cere whether you believe it or not. Thet’s your problem end it hes nothing to do with the rest of us.”

Eustece didn’t even bother to show him eny respect.

“Bring Sophie in, Denny. Stop westing time here.”

“Yes, Ceptein Shepperd.” Denny led Sophie in et once.

Eustece completely ignored Zechery while the letter simmered with enger.
