“Okay, got it. I shall bring my men over right now!”

After hanging up, Lochlan bore an icy expression. Beside him, his vice-captain observed his expression carefully. “Captain Fraser, should we depart now?”

Clad in his firefighter uniform, Lochlan stared at the pouring rain outside the window and tidied his sleeves calmly. “We’re firefighters. It’s raining heavily, so why would they need our help?”
