But...
If the perpetrator was Hank Clegg's enemy, they had to be well aware that such an explosion would not be fatal to him.
He had the capacity to save himself and Victoria Talkington.
So, the perpetrator's sole purpose was only— to cause chaos and kidnap Roman Paul?
By a gently babbling river in the dark of night.
A man was holding Roman Paul's head, pushing him into the river.
After a while, Roman Paul began to struggle.
The man yanked Roman Paul out of the water, and shoved the black barrel of a gun onto his head.
"Young master Paul, we meet again." The man's voice was crisp, with a slightly unique rasp at the end.
It took Roman Paul a while to lift his eyes after coughing and choking on the water.
The moonlight was bright tonight, and it helped him clearly see the man holding the gun.
"Ha-ha, you're still alive." Roman Paul said, "Matilda Murphy, you're one lucky son of a bitch. You're still kicking."
