Seeing Murphy and the hobo\'s current plight. Daniel wanted to help, especially now that he has the power to do so.

"Do you know where this Ardito Veneziale lives? I\'ll go talk to him a bit."

Murphy and the hobos look at Daniel like looking at a madman. They know how influential this local mafia is, even the police and local authorities didn\'t dare to touch him.

"Don\'t do anything…" Before Murphy\'s sentence ends, his hobo friend who is despairing about his lost saving money suddenly speaks.

"Downtown north! 25 street! A very big estate with a green roof at the end of 25 street!"

"Pete! What the hell are you doing!" Murphy immediately admonished his friend.

"Don\'t you dare lecture me, Murphy! That money was my savings for my wife\'s surgery fee! Even if it is just a vain hope, I\'ll still bet on it!" Pete retorted.

Hearing Pete\'s reason, Murphy didn\'t know how to respond as he could relate to Pete\'s plight a little bit.

"You don\'t need to worry about it, old man. I\'ll just pay a visit to this man and have a talk for a bit. Who knows, maybe he would see the reason and give all of your things back." Daniel said with a smile before turning back and about to walk off to Ardito\'s address. Someone holds his shoulder and he can\'t help but turn back to see who he is and it was Murphy who stopped him.

"Be very careful lad. Ardito might not be a large figure like those politicians in the cabinet, but he had enough sway over some of the politicians and authority to help him in most cases. As long as he didn\'t kill a person with a lot of witness and rock solid proof, he could almost get out of it scot-free." Murphy warned.

"I understand old man. Don\'t worry." Daniel said and walked off into the distance.

After Daniel went out for five minutes. Murphy, who is helping Pete recover his things, suddenly remembers something and immediately rushes to his recycling junk pile and immediately digs something up.

"What are you doing Murphy?" Another hobo friend of his asks in curiosity.

Murphy didn\'t say anything, he just brought a metal box out of the pile of recycled junk and then let out a smile.

"Good! It\'s still here!" Said, Murphy.

"What was that?" Pete asks while Murphy was checking the content inside.

"It\'s a souvenir from when I was still working… not being a hobo I mean. It\'s very important to me." Murphy replied.

Pete\'s eyes were also checking the content that Murphy checked one by one, and what he saw nearly made his heart stop.

All of it was the file, photos, and important papers including the bank statement and a lot of evidence that involved many big-name characters he usually saw on the TV and news.

If his memory serves him right. There was a police force commander who didn\'t give a shit about those big names and was determined to destroy the human trafficking business until he was hunted down by those influential figures before he could present all of his evidence and go into hiding.

But from what he knows, this police force commander should have hidden in a foreign country.

Also, Pete heard a rumor that the one who was actually getting the benefit of the human trafficking was none other than the Tessia Royal family and he also heard that there is a very generous reward from the royal family to whoever could tell them where this former police force commander is.

Pete thinks about it, even if Daniel could bring his money back, his wife still needs a lot more money than he had if she were to have a hope to survive.

"I\'m sorry…" Pete uttered silently through his gritted teeth.

— Veneziale Estate —

Outside of the Veneziale estate, A mysterious man in an expensive-looking suit stood in front of a large black steel gate that is more than 4 meters high. There are two guards at the door who are looking at him with less-than-friendly intentions.

This man was of course Daniel who just bought the most expensive suit he could get his hands on in the luxury emporium of the people who have their income at the top of the pyramid. He does this to make himself look more respectable and convincing of the identity of the mage from the Curtained World.

"What the hell are you loitering around here? Get lost already!" One of the guards said in an offensive tone as he walked toward Daniel who was still raising his head looking at the black steel large door.

"I want to have a word with Mr. Veneziale. Go and tell him." Daniel said to the guard.

"Ahhh!? and Who the hell are you? Do you think this is a public park or something?" The guard ignores what Daniel said and continues intimidating him.

Another guard who seems to be older and calmer looks carefully at Daniel from top to bottom. A handcrafted blue suit from a famous brand in Paris, and pants were also from the same brand. Judging from the get-up of the stranger in front of him he was sure that this stranger should be anything but simple.

So he decides to stop his subordinate before this hot-head idiot begins the conflict and gets himself into trouble.

"Stop this at once and apologize to him!" The head guard said to his younger subordinate and walked to Daniel before bowing his head and using his hand to force his subordinate head to bow alongside him.

"I\'m very sorry for this idiot\'s behavior sir. May I know who you are?" The head guard politely asks but his eyes grew sharp as if trying to catch on anything suspicious or a lie that was going to come out of Daniel.

"My name is not important to you. I\'m here because it is a matter related to the Curtained World. If your boss has great influence as people say he will know what I mean." Daniel answered as he acted mysterious.

He doesn\'t know if the people from the curtained world would act like this or not. He really wants to ask Wrath herself how to act like one. Unfortunately, wrath didn\'t give him any means of contacting her, he had already checked the phone she gave him but the contact was empty.

ραпdα nᴏνa| сom So he can only imagine that people who are in power behind the scene and holding many secrets in hand would have thought of themselves as being superior to anyone outside of their community. Even if he can\'t bring himself to act like an arrogant asshole, acting mysterious like this should be enough to pass as the people from the Curtained world.

"The Curtained world?" The head guard repeated. He doesn\'t know what that is supposed to mean but his instinct tells him not to mess with the mysterious man in front of him and he better leave the judgment to his boss. This instinct of his saved his life more than once already so he chose to trust it rather than not.

"Could you please wait at the guest waiting room behind the guard post sir? I\'ll immediately report this matter to our boss." The head guard asked politely.

"After you…" Daniel gestures to the door and then says with a tone that was neither humble nor haughty.

The head guard led Daniel through the door beside the gate to a small but elegant guest room that was built near the guard post outside of the house for the guest who didn\'t make any appointment beforehand.

Daniel waits patiently inside a small guest room as he enjoys the high-grade tea and some cookies from a beautiful maid that the head guard had called to entertain him.

—

In the main building of the Veneziale estate. A young man in his twenties is drinking with his group of friends celebrating the day he finally came home from studying abroad.

Russo Veneziale just came back from his long study and today he got a job from his father, Ardito Veneziale to evacuate the hobos that are staying in his newly acquired property, the abandoned apartment.

His father didn\'t instruct him on how to do the job, he just said that he wanted the hobo out of his property as fast as possible. So he brought his friend to visit those hobos, planning to intimidate them a bit and bruising them up a little to hurry them to evacuate, but when they arrived, he found no one.

Since he didn\'t find the hobos because they went to work outside. With his personality, he didn\'t bother to wait for the hobos to come back. He decided to demolish the hobos\' home with his friend, who would have thought that one of them would hoard a lot of money in their pitiful safe so he and his friend also take them back along with another small safe made of tempered steel.

The head guard quickly walked past the living room toward the meeting room at the back of the main building which drew attention from Russo to himself.

"Where are you going head guard? Dad was in the middle of an important meeting. If it\'s not too urgent you can tell me." Russo asks with a smile. He wanted to prove himself to his father that he could handle some of the gang business.

The head guard stops then turns toward Russo and politely refuses.

"I\'m very sorry, young master, but I think this matter should be reported to the boss directly."

"Dad was in a very important business talk. Are you sure you can take it if what you are about to report is not important enough for him to deal with while he\'s in the middle of this kind of meeting?" Russo asks again as he tries to shake the head guard\'s confidence.
