"Could Shopkeeper Reed provide any other hints?"
Klein tried to haggle, or rather, exercise a consumer's right to know.
But clearly, the consumer's right to know was practically a joke in the intelligence business.
Under Adam's gaze, the courage Klein had just managed to summon immediately shrank back.
"Ahem, then I'd like to know the original price of this intelligence. That should be fine, right?"
No matter how highly they valued every part of a piece of intelligence, surely even its price could not be confidential?

"200,000? Gold Pounds?! And that's only the minimum?"
The word "robbery" was practically written across Klein's wide eyes.
"Is that a lot? Life in the extraordinary domain has never been merely dangerous; it also comes with enormous costs."

At that moment, Klein could almost picture
