"As the initiator of this game, you should present your 'discussion point,' Roy."
At that, Swire, who had been looking at Roy, paused for a moment.
The only thing she could see on Roy's face was confidence. From that, she gleaned one piece of information: Roy had prepared for this long ago.
"I suppose you've been preparing for quite some time."
"Of course. I've been looking forward to this game as well. The discussion point I'm proposing is..."
Perhaps to maintain suspense, or perhaps to stir everyone's interest, Roy forcibly cut off what should have been said in one breath.
Clearly, his goal had been achieved. At this moment, everyone's eyes were fixed on him, all of them waiting intently for Roy to reveal the discussion point of this game.
"What was the purpose of those Sarkaz coming here...?"
He did not choose an overly straightforward proposition such as "the Lungmen Guard Department's purpose" or "Yan's purpose," because Roy understood one thing well: such a proposition would be too direct and would rob the game of its meaning. Moreover, using either of those topics would prevent him from obtaining the intelligence he wanted.
For an "intelligence operative," that would undoubtedly be fatal.
So Roy chose a compromise. He did not intend to discuss his own side, nor did he intend to discuss the two members of the Lungmen Guard Department backed by Great Yan. Instead, he focused on the Sarkaz.
"Then I'll speak first."
The first to speak was neither Roy, nor Swire or Hoshiguma, much less W.
It was Chen. At this moment, she was staring Roy down with an exceptionally sharp gaze, like a hunter who had locked onto her prey.
As someone who had also graduated from criminal investigation studies, Roy knew very well what this meant.
