Chapter 2907

    ---- Chapter 2907 Two dayster, Andrew appeared in another major city. It was not too far from Throne City, the headquarters of the Ludendorff family. So, the moment Andrew entered the city, he immediately saw his portrait scrolling across massive electronic billboards. Below it, several blood-red words zed out. [Bounty: 500 Million Meurico Dors!) As for who posted the bounty, there was no doubt it was the Ludendorff family. Andrew only nced at it before walking away as if nothing had happened. Several hidden gazes swept over him, but then quietly withdrew.


    At the moment, Andrew wore a ck cloak, and the lowered hood covered most of his face. The Godyer had been ced inside arge case. So for the time being, no one recognized him. He picked a restaurant and sat down. The open terrace allowed him to easily see the street below. Finding Reginald was his top priority at the moment. After that, he needed to manage his time carefully and head toward the Deands. Since he was already in the Ounds, there was no way he would pass up the chance to investigate the entrance to the Veiled Paradise.


    ---- He mocked himself inwardly, thinking he really was a pitiful kid, searching for both his father and his mother. After tossing two gold bars onto the table, the waiter''s smile immediately reached its peak. Soon after, the restaurant''s finest dishes were brought out one by one. Two little girls, their faces smeared with dirt, approached Andrew''s table with eager eyes. They were two child beggars, and they kept swallowing their saliva while staring at the food. Andrew ate on his own,pletely ignoring them. He did not even spare them a nce.


    One of the girls finally could not hold back and said, "Sir, could you give us some to eat? We haven''t eaten in three days. Please, have some mercy and give us a little." Andrew remained unmoved, not even shifting his gaze. The two girls fidgeted restlessly but still held themselves back Finally, Andrew put down his fork, stood up, and smiled. "The leftovers are all yours. But remember this for next time: not everyone is as easy to fool as I am. If you run into someone ruthless, you could very well lose your lives." ---- Both girls lowered their heads in unison.


    Yet there was no regret or embarrassment in their eyes, only coldness. Their pitiful act from earlier had beenpletely fake. In the Ounds, children like these were trained to beg and used as tools. Many people took pity on them without understanding the truth. They never realized they could be sold off or used for assassinations the moment they turned around. After Andrew had taken only a few steps, someone grabbed the back of his clothes. The smile on his face did not change as he turned around.


    "What is it?" The two children clung tightly to him and put on their pitiful expressions again. "Sir, could you give us some more money? You are so rich, just give us a little so we can survive, okay? My sister and I will remember your kindness forever." Andrew''s smile widened. "! say, you two girls should know when to stop. You are young, but that does not mean I am a fool to be taken advantage of." The two children clenched their teeth and said nothing. They simply refused to let go of Andrew''s clothes. ---- Andrew chuckled softly.


    "It seems I really look easy to bully and easy to extort." A restaurant manager walked over and tried to persuade him. Sir, just give them a little something. These kids are quite pitiful. Anyone who eats here usually gives them something when they tun into them." Andrew smiled and said, "The way you put it makes me sound like the viin, like a heartless miser. So what if I refuse to give a single cent?" The manager snorted coldly. "I was trying to help you, but you clearly took kindness for weakness. If you do not want to give, then do as you please.


    But let me tell you this: the moment you step outside our restaurant, you are on Ironheads territory. These two kids belong to the gang. You should think carefully about whether you can afford to offend them." After saying that, he gave Andrew a mocking smile and turned to leave
