The trilling phone call interrupted Lance and Branch Director Bru's conversation. Lance glanced at the phone and picked it up, "This is Wanli Firm."
"Mr. Lance?"
"It's me, Roger!"
"I don't know how to say this, but the family's people can't be seen on the streets anymore. Has something happened?"
Roger sounded somewhat nervous.
Today, as he milled about outside, he had unexpectedly discovered that the people who usually showed up on the streets with Red Arm Bands had suddenly disappeared!
This surprised him, although the merchants' association hadn't held back his payment, and even if they disappeared, he wouldn't suffer any loss.
But just like many others in the Imperial District, he didn't want the Lance family to vanish.
In the half-year since the Lance family appeared, one could say it was the most comfortable time for the Imperial District!
Although there were occasional violent crimes, there were generally far fewer compared to before.
