Kloer was stunned. Jite, who was next to him, pricked up his ears.
"Alex has a Mimic Mixed Species with him?" Kloer asked in confusion. "When did he get a Mimic Mixed Species? Why didn't I know?"
Hearing him say this, Lanuo found it even stranger.
'Alex is keeping a Mimic Mixed Species with him, how could Kloer not know?'
Mimic Mixed Species were extremely dangerous, and Alex didn't have many confidants in Zone 19. Even if it was for a secret mission, he should have had someone watching it.
'Kloer is his most capable subordinate. How could he hide it from Kloer?'
Lanuo recalled his last few communications with Alex—all of which concerned Mixed Breeds—and his suspicion grew.
"Alex didn't tell you?" Lanuo asked.
Jite nudged the stunned Kloer.
Kloer snapped back to his senses. "No... The boss never told us he brought a Mimic Mixed Species with him."
Lanuo thought for a moment. "Does he have a Mixed Breed with him?"
Kloer said, "Yes."
