Not long after, Gerald's call came in. "Hello?" Hera answered after the first ring.
"Young Miss, I have double-checked the information you asked me to verify. It turns out there is an Alice Quinn on the guest list, dining in the general dining area. She arrived with her friend Minerva just 20 minutes after you, and they are still in the restaurant following the lockdown for the investigation," Gerald reported.
"Did we have any esteemed guests dining in the private rooms?" Hera added after a brief silence.
"Umm, I checked the guest list and found a politician from Korea on a secret visit, dining in private room 4 and also staying in the hotel," Gerald confirmed. He must have done his homework before getting back to Hera. Now, more than ever, Hera was convinced that her speculations were close to the truth.
