Outside the south gate of Zhangshan Cemetery in Rekton, it is now nine o'clock in the evening, and the lazy cemetery caretaker is sitting on the steps of the entrance with a stool and smoking a cigarette.
He had already dozed off, but the sudden commotion on the street immediately attracted his attention.
Two young men were chasing each other on the roadside. The guy behind took off his boots and threw them forward, but accidentally hit the cemetery caretaker.
The nurse lost all sleepiness in an instant, dragged the folding stool and angrily walked towards the two young men who were wrestling with each other.
At the same time, a figure suddenly flashed out from the other side and quickly passed the steps at the intersection.
If anyone could notice him, they would definitely find something like a shovel in his hand.
The moon was dark and the wind was high, and the air was cold and still. Victor lowered the brim of his hat and carefully walked through the cemeteries.
"It's time to rejoice, the time has come, there's no need to delay, do it quickly!"
Victor silently recited the result of the secret formula just now, knowing that he must act as quickly as possible tonight, and he will definitely get useful rewards.
He sat in that restaurant until night, and then bribed two gangsters on the roadside to help attract the attention of the cemetery patrol, while he took the opportunity to sneak inside with a shovel.
But the guard at Zhangshan Cemetery is likely to be more than just the one at the door, so Victor must be careful.
Although the cemeteries are concentrated on this hill, there are still many people buried. It would be difficult for Victor to find Joseph's cemetery in a short time.
Therefore, he still inferred from the previous hexagrams.
"Sudden joy is a red bird, and the three, six, and nine are the masters of every plan..."
"In terms of night, nine should be the time of action, which is now around nine and a half, and three can be understood as the people involved. Counting me and the two young people who bribed me, there are three people in total.
That’s why we were able to successfully deceive the guards at the intersection, so the direction should be six..."
Liu occupied the Si position in Xun Palace, southeast!
Victor thought clearly and quickly found the southeast direction of Zhangshan Cemetery.
He ran over there quickly with a shovel. Because of the night, the surrounding scenery was very dark. He could only vaguely see the soft grass under his feet and the red soil specially transported to the cemetery from outside the city.
If there is a guard patrolling the area, the oil lamp the other person is carrying is an obvious warning. Victor is not particularly worried about this.
It’s just that he didn’t dare to light the lamp himself, so even when he got to the location, it was still difficult for him to find Joseph’s name among the many tombstones.
"Suxi is a red bird. The red bird belongs to fire. The characteristic of fire is red, which is bright and conspicuous at night!"
Victor dug deeply into the imagery of the hexagram again, and a bright light suddenly shone in his eyes.
In a place near the southeast, there is a torch tied to a broken stone pillar.
That's not a patrol lantern.
After confirming this, Victor immediately ran there and found the name of Joseph Bode on the nearest tombstone next to the stone pillar.
This is it!
Victor was ecstatic in his heart and looked around. Instead of taking action in a hurry, he extinguished the torch first.
It's easier to do things in the dark, but Victor doesn't want to be found digging graves from afar.
Before taking action, he clasped his hands together and bowed toward the tombstone.
"Although digging graves will shorten your life, that happened in a previous life. I am a Bain in this world, and there are not so many rules."
Giving himself some psychological comfort, Victor simply got off the shovel.
Sand... sand...
Every once in a while, he would poke his head out to see if there was an "oil lamp" approaching him.
Fortunately, the cemetery caretakers didn't notice Victor until he dug out the wooden coffin.
"I really want to light a cigarette for myself, but I don't have the time."
Victor felt his waist was a little sore, but time was running out, so he quickly pushed the simple coffin lid aside.
In order to see clearly what was inside, he quickly lit a match.
There was a flash of light under the tomb, but it was fleeting.
The light of a match for two seconds is enough. The contents in the coffin are very simple, and Victor can see them clearly without looking carefully.
Because it’s empty inside!
Yes.
There were no dried corpses or decayed remains. The simple coffin box was empty. If it hadn't been covered with soil, it would have been as good as new.
The body of Joseph Bode mysteriously disappeared!
Victor took a deep breath. This result was completely unexpected.
The first thought in his mind at this time was, could it be that people from the Anti-Suppression Department had recovered the secret message from Joseph's body?
But this idea was quickly rejected by him, because in the inner data files, there was no record that Joseph's secret transmission had been recovered, and the record of the Anti-Suppression Department was from a long time ago.
Moreover, if the Anti-Suppression Department wanted to recover the secret message, there would be no need to dig up the grave at all. They could just lead the people to carry out the order on the day Joseph was buried.
The Ministry of Defense and the Inspection Bureau have obtained authorization from the federal government, and there is no way to stop Ruf's circus.
So what is the truth?
What was the cause of Joseph's madness before his death? Is it really just a fatal characteristic caused by reaching the digestive threshold?
At this time, Victor also noticed a small detail, that is, other graves had more or less signs of being mourned.
For example, there are clean lilies, pink calla lilies, etc.
Even the deserted tombstone is still scattered with withered flower spots, which at least proves that the relatives of the deceased have visited once in the past.
There is nothing in front of Joseph's tomb. It's okay to say it's clean, but it's also reasonable to say it's dirty, because there are overgrown weeds around the tomb, the tombstone is stained with soil, and it has never been cleaned.
Ruf should be Joseph's only surviving relative. Didn't he come to pay homage even once after his uncle was buried?
The relationship between the two of them is so bad?
That guy actually knew early on that Joseph’s body was not in the tomb at all!
Victor's mind was filled with doubts. He thought he could successfully retrieve the secret message from Joseph's body, but he didn't expect that he would discover a hidden secret...
At this time, there was a light shaking not far away. Victor quickly climbed out of the tunnel and quickly escaped from the darkness of the cemetery.
……
Tonight, some people are sneaking around, while others are attending high-class gatherings openly.
Will Evans, the lucky man who changed his name, finally entered the wealthy place he had dreamed of since he was a child.
Robert Cameron, a well-known member of the Senate and a big figure in the Legislative Council of Laketon.
On his birthday, various wealthy businessmen from all over the city gathered together.
Tonight, many high-class people came to the scene in special cars. Their clothes were all carefully customized and luxurious suits. Most of the men wore top hats and tailcoats. They talked politely and behaved deliberately restrained. Some people wore fluffy coats and talked about
Holding a cigar in his mouth, he is full of nobility.
Most women's skirts have complex patterns, and some are bright and some are elegant.
They either wear low-cut palace dresses to show off their snow-white skin and ravines to the public; or they are dignified and reserved and don't like to expose the skin of their necks and wrists, so they use light-colored underwear to cover them, and they don't even talk or laugh while talking or laughing.
I like to cover my mouth and make a show.
But no matter what, the real purpose of women is either to show off the gold and jade gems on their necks, or to show off the gold and jade gems on their fingers.
However, no matter what your status is, whether you are wearing a top hat or smoking a cigar, whether you are a man or a woman, or how many gems you have on your face, you can only queue up obediently outside Senator Robert's banquet venue.<
/p>
A man who was well-dressed and high-spirited held his chest out. After handing over the invitation to the security guard at the door, he took his equally proud female companion on his arm and entered the banquet hall without looking back.
Will was also among the guests who came to the banquet. He lined up, suppressing the excitement in his heart, and repeatedly recalled the etiquette and tone of voice he had learned from aristocratic families in the past. There was only one thought in his mind - he could not
