When Nanako Ito heard this, she was taken aback and asked, “Charlie, what kind of gift are you nning to give him?”


    Charlie smiled and replied, “I suspect he’s still anxious about why Xion vanished and why he was abandoned by someone.”


    Nanako Ito nodded, saying, “That’s true. My dad mentioned that my uncle is under a lot of pressure right now. It’s tough to handle such a desperate situation. The main issue is that the public has incredibly high expectations. If he seeds, everyone will be pleased, but if it goes poorly, the bacsh could be severe.”


    Charlie agreed, adding, “Exactly. This type of situation is like a double-edged sword; if it’s not handled correctly, it can backfire.”


    With a smile, Charlie continued, “However, the gift I’m giving him will allow him to transform this double-edged sword into a single-edged one!”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Nanako Ito looked at him in surprise, asking, “Charlie, what do you mean by turning a double-edged sword into a single-edged one?”


    “Yes,” Charlie said with a grin. “In essence, my gift will ensure he doesn’t have to worry about hurting himself if he mishandles this sword.”


    Nanako Ito quickly inquired, “Charlie, can you tell me what this incredible gift is?”


    Charlie replied with a smile, “You need to inform him that the reason Xion was abandoned is due to the collusion between the Banks Family and the Japanese Self-Defense Forces. They worked together to deceive him and then handed him over to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.”


    “What?!” Nanako Ito eximed, her voice filled with disbelief. “Charlie, is that really true? The Banks Family actually colluded with the Self-Defense Forces?”


    Charlie asked her, “When have I ever lied to you?”


    Nanako Ito quickly rified, “Charlie, I didn’t mean it that way… I just thought… this information is so shocking! How could the Self-Defense Forces, which are supposed to be the Japanese military, engage in something so absurd?”


    Charlie chuckled and said, “Well, to put it simply, the reason the Banks Family and the Self-Defense Forces are entangled is not for altruistic reasons! It’s mainly because the Banks Family has immense power, allowing them to manipte situations to their advantage. If my dad’s friend can focus on breakthroughs within the Self-Defense Forces, he will definitely make significant progress.”


    Charlie then added, “As long as your uncle can uncover real evidence of the collusion between the Self-Defense Forces and the Banks Family, even if he can’t retrieve Xion, he can still turn the situation around for the Metropolitan Police Department!”


    Nanako Ito realized that before Charlie shared this information, the main concern had been whether her uncle could sessfully capture Xion. But now, the focus had shifted.


    Now, if her uncle could find definitive proof that the Banks Family and the Self-Defense Forces were involved in Xion’s disappearance, the Metropolitan Police Department could absolve themselves of all responsibility, cing the me squarely on the Banks Family and the Self-Defense Forces!


    Excitedly, Nanako Ito eximed, “Charlie, I need to tell my uncle right away! Thank you for this incredible gift! Once the issue is resolved, I’ll make sure my uncle expresses his gratitude to you personally!”


    Charlie replied with a smile, “No need to be overly polite. As long as I visit Japan in the future, or if there’s anything in Japan where I can assist him, that’s enough.”


    Nanako Ito confidently said, “Charlie, don’t worry! My uncle is very loyal and honorable. If he can truly resolve this issue with your help, he will definitely remember your kindness!”<fn2336> Newest update provided by ?ovelFind</fn2336>


    Charlie smiled and added, “Let me provide a bit more information. Make sure to tell him to investigate the Maritime Self-Defense Force that went out to seast night. The internal traitor must be among that group. If he can apprehend them for a surprise trial, he will surely find a breakthrough!”


    Nanako Ito contemted this for a moment and replied, “The Self-Defense Forces are more powerful than the Metropolitan Police Department. Directly arresting people might be difficult, and the Self-Defense Forces will likely interfere.”<h3 ss="has-text-align-center" id="chapter-list"><strong></strong>
