"During this treasure hunt, you have demonstrated remarkable talent and professionalism," Peter's unusual gentleness surprised Sean Knight.
"This is your reward for this time." Someone handed Sean two stacks of money.
20,000 dollars?
"Looking forward to our future cooperation," Peter confidently said, "This time, we encountered an accident. In a week, we will embark on another treasure hunt, and I will have someone notify you then. You may leave now."
Sean took the money and left with his backpack.
"Bosuns, are you just letting him go like that?" A subordinate by Peter's side asked, "Aren't you afraid he'll leak information?"
"No, he's the kind of person who's cautious in all matters. Since he has people he cares about, he'll be afraid that we'll threaten him. As long as we occasionally show him a strong hand, he'll cooperate with us obediently."
