After leaving the Non-Body Faction Fighting Hall, Chen Chuan felt that the matter was not so simple as he rode back.
Before coming here, Head Xie had discussed it with him. Most matters that reached a certain level, especially those occurring in the Federation capital, were certainly not as simple as they appeared on the surface. What could be seen was merely the tip of an iceberg rising above the water, while far more shadows lay buried beneath.
Thus, after returning to Red Rock Manor, he had the telegraph operator send a telegram to the Covert Department, asking whether they had any information concerning the Fighting Hall.
No reply came immediately after the telegram was sent. Instead, Nobu Goro contacted Chen Chuan and said that after hearing his invitation, Director Wen Lier of Migas Fighting Hall had agreed to the meeting almost at once. He said that meeting Chen Chuan would be an honor and that he greatly looked forward to this exchange.
The meeting was set for two o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
Chen Chuan had an attendant call back to acknowledge it, then went to train.
The next morning, an encrypted letter was delivered.
After receiving it, Chen Chuan knew it had come from the Covert Department. He took out a codebook and had an attendant decipher it. Before long, the translation was delivered into his hands.
