Clues

[Anton's P.O.V.]

I kept looking at Walter with suspicion, but he had already begun to calmly taste his coffee.

"Mr. Walter, I am facing deadends on every lead in my investigation of Aidi, as if someone has been intentionally hiding something from me." I did not give up on trying to convince Walter.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Anton. I can't help you any more than this. If you insist on knowing, I suggest you think about it from a different perspective. Maybe you will notice something new." Walter also looked troubled as he offered his opinion.

It turned out that my visit today had been futile.

Since there was nothing more he was willing to say, I thanked him dejectedly. "I apologize for the inconvenience, Mr. Walter."
