Chapter 476

“Searching blindly would be like looking for a needle in a haystack,” Andrew remarked thoughtfully.

Lauren snorted and said, “Let’s go straight to the Weller residence and demand Lucy back. If Harvey refuses, we’ll tear their whole empire down.”

Andrew chuckled wryly. “Ms. Rhodes, your approach is too aggressive. If we knew for certain Lucy was at the Weller residence, we could confront them directly. But as we heard, Harvey played it smart–Lucy isn’t with the Weller family. She’s with the masked man, so we need another approach.”

Lauren sighed, feeling frustrated. “But the Weller family is our only lead, and everything else is a dead end. What else can we do if we don’t confront them?”

Andrew turned to Marcus and asked, “Mr. Chapman, think carefully about that masked man–did you notice any distinguishing features?”

Marcus racked his brain, trying to recall the incident. “He even disguised his voice, clearly being extremely careful not to reveal his identity. I studied him while we talked, but couldn’t spot anything useful.”

Andrew shook his head. “Everyone has distinguishing features–it’s just a matter of whether they’re obvious enough to notice. Think harder, was there anything particularly memorable about him?”

Marcus suddenly jolted upright and exclaimed, “I remember now! Though he was completely covered, I saw a scorpion tattoo on the back of his hand where his sleeve didn’t quite reach!”

“That’s not much help,” Lauren said disappointedly. “Countless people have tattoos these days, and a scorpion tattoo just makes you think of some street thug–nothing more.”

“Not necessarily,” Andrew said with a knowing smile. Then, he immediately dialed Natasha’s number while Marcus and Lauren looked on in confusion.

“I need you to find a man with a scorpion tattoo on his arm. He’s connected to the Weller family and has kidnapped a little girl named Lucy.”

After quickly relaying the information to Natasha, he hung up.

“Will this really work?” Marcus asked skeptically.

Andrew smiled as he replied, “Mr. Chapman, just wait and see. You might doubt yourself, but never underestimate the efficiency of the underground network. Imagine the entire Jayrodale underground mobilizing to find Lucy–that’s quite a force.”

Marcus clenched his fists and nodded firmly, saying, “Thank you, Mr. Lloyd. I’ll never forget this huge favor!”

As soon as Andrew’s order reached Natasha, the entire underground network sprang into action. Though Andrew had not contacted Dylan directly, Natasha would naturally coordinate with him.

When both crime lords mobilized their forces across Jayrodale’s four districts, they commanded a few thousand people. Such a massive operation made some guilty parties tremble, thinking Jayrodale was about to experience a power shift.

The major families–the Rhodes, the Goths, the Wellers, and the Combs–all wondered what Natasha and Dylan were up to. There had always been tension between the established families and the underground lords–they despised each other.

Donald, the Jayrodale Police Commissioner, immediately called both Natasha and Dylan, growling, “Natasha, Dylan, what’s with all this commotion? Why didn’t you notify me first? What are you up to?”

He worried these crime lords might cause some serious trouble.
