Things have changed.
Jethro casually checked into a hotel. Though he didn't become completely negligent, once Nicholas was no longer an immediate threat, Jethro found it difficult to maintain his prior level of caution.
In other words, Yang Yi wasn't as important to Jethro anymore, at least not as a lifeline; therefore, Jethro wouldn't talk to Yang Yi as freely as before.
Yang Yi was desperate to figure out what was happening inside the Deyo Group, but he couldn't just ask Jethro, so eavesdropping was his only option.
Yang Yi shared a room with Chris, Xiao Ran shared with Kate, and of course, Brian stayed invariably with Paul.
This time, Yang Yi was staying next to Jethro's room; thus, he personally placed a bug on the wall and then put on his headphones, ready to listen to whether Jethro and Boyata would discuss anything noteworthy.
