Counterfeit Cheques!
Thinking of Jenkins from yesterday, Arthur almost subconsciously thought of this answer—a somewhat famous painter, why would he be kidnapped?
Counterfeit money, counterfeit cheques, forged paintings.
These are the three most direct types.
Among them, the most valuable are the forged paintings.
But Malz had brought out a cheque.
In Arthur's mind, he had already pictured Jenkins being held captive somewhere near the sea for the past year, relentlessly forging cheques day and night.
"Counterfeit cheques?"
"Knew I couldn't hide it from you!"
"Was it 'Anna' who told you?"
Malz laughed.
Arthur took a sip of hot milk and shrugged.
