"Believe me; no one knows it better than me. The meeting will be canceled," Ryder said as he glanced back to make sure that Alice wasn't here. "Because that guy... He is dead."
"What? He is dead? What do you mean?" Shu asked, stunned.
The Vice President was dead? He didn't hear any news about that. How could it be that only Ryder knew about it, unless...
He stared at Ryder before he asked, "Don't tell me you killed him?"
Ryder took a deep breath before he once again glanced back to check up on Alice. "I did."
"Why?" Shu asked.
"Because he was one of the people that were here to kill me. You can call it self-defense," Ryder answered.
In any case, it wasn't as if anyone could prove that he had murdered the Vice President. According to the world, he was still in the New Capital. Moreover, he came here secretly with Aluren, so Ryder was sure that there was no proof that he was coming here. He also kept his face hidden when coming.
