Harlan could tell that I didn’t believe him, so he helplessly reminded me about the task at hand. “Debra, Gale entrusted us with this mission.

Whatever happens, the mission comes first.”
However, his words sounded more like a reminder to himself than to me.
“I know, I know.”

I held my hands up and stopped teasing him. We were here to work, and we couldn’t afford to gossip. “I’m free to talk now, and there’s something I need to tell you.”
Harlan’s expression immediately became serious.
“Have you found anything?”
“Yes. There’s a secret chamber in Adam’s study. And I found a way to enter it. If my guess is right, there’s bound to be evidence of him wanting to sell the town in that room.”
“Then we have to find a way in.”
“Adam is extremely cautious. He doesn’t Let anyone enter his study, not even his wife. I was able to enter the secret room today, but just for a brief moment. He nearly caught me.”
Speaking of this, my tone grew very serious.

his, but to my surprise, I found him nodding in agreement. “Yeah, I hope that’ll be the case.”
“You’re actually agreeing with me?” My eyebrows shot up in surprise
“I want to avoid violence as much as possible,” Harlan explained.
But his explanation only confused me even more
He had only been in Roz Town for a few days. How could he have changed so much? Previously, he had insisted on taking Adam back to Gale for a ruthless interrogation
Recalling how he and Zoe looked at each other just now, I guessed that the change in Harlan had something to do with her.
