Everyone who came after being summoned by Quentin Zimmer was now all gone. Only Zachary Xavier and the others from the Divine Constabulary stayed behind in the Larsen family’s house.
Zachary gathered his thoughts before speaking to Alex Rockefeller. “Alex, you’re too reckless this time. Quentin is a truly powerful figure with a wide network of connections. Now that you’ve killed his son and daughter, he definitely won’t let you off the hook!”
After saying this, Zachary recalled that he hadn’t even asked Alex about how all this happened. “Did you kidnap Easton and Viole?”
“I’m not that free!” Alex said indifferently.
Phoebe Larsen took out the camera from before and played the final video for Zachary. “Uncle Xavier, this is why!”
After seeing the video, Zachary immediately became furious. “B*stards. B*stards! Quentin’s son and daughter deserved to die. They’ve committed an unforgivable sin. I can’t believe they’d do something outrageous like this. They deserved to die.”
After saying that, Zachary started laughing loudly. “Quentin is a person who would do anything to achieve his objectives. Moreover, he has huge ambitions! I’ve been paying attention to this person since a long time ago. During his tenure in Michigan, he even cooperated with many ancient martial arts families. The Zimmer family isn’t particularly big, and they don’t have a lot of support in the government or the opposition parties. But now, I understand it. He wants to imitate the secret police agency in the past by controlling martial arts experts to boost his bargaining power,” Zachary said.
Alex nodded.
“Alex, you must be careful in the next few days! Quentin won’t be sitting around and doing nothing for the next three days. He’d definitely be getting a lot done. The joint trial is going to be a fierce battle. We must be prepared as much as possible! I’ll summon the two other guardians in the Divine Constabulary as well as a few Grandmasters from the Melvis family to support you when the time comes,” Zachary said.
Alex nodded without saying anything to refute.
Once Zachary and the others had left, Phoebe let out a long sigh of relief as she patted her chest. “Oh, dear. I really got scared out of my wits. I didn’t expect such a huge scene. I thought I’d be dead today,” she said.
Alex didn’t care about what Phoebe said.
He focused his attention on the tracking mark. This tracking mark was far too ordinary. In fact, Alex discovered that he could even use this tracking mark to track Sister Flora down.
“What do we do now? We can’t even walk down the stairs. Should I look for my mother?” Phoebe said again.
“There’s no need! Telling your mother about this won’t help much. Just let her stay at the hospital to look after your father,” Alex said. He then took out a wooden box from his pocket. When he acquired it from Viole Zimmer, he didn’t manage to check it out in time. Right then, Alex wanted to investigate it thoroughly. It might turn out to be something good.
The wooden box was tiny, but it felt a little heavy. It definitely didn’t contain a ring.
As soon as Alex opened the box, he could sense an odd essence. It was different from Earth’s essence. It seemed to contain a kind of mental wave.
“What is this thing?”
Alex took the item out of the box. He discovered that it was a piece of bone. Moreover, from its shape, it looked like a human’s bone.
“Ahh. This looks like a person’s finger bone!” As a qualified modern doctor, Phoebe instantly recognized it based on her sufficient knowledge of the human skeletal system.
“Can you recognize which part this belongs to?” Alex asked.
“Let me see!” Phoebe picked up the bone. She wasn’t afraid either. Clinical dissection was the bread and butter of her profession. This was nothing to her.
Phoebe examined the bone for a while. “It’s probably the second knuckle of the right index finger. But the weight feels a little off. It’s too heavy!” Phoebe shook her head as she said that.
However, right then, Phoebe suddenly shouted in surprise. The edge of the bone was a little sharp. It cut her finger. Immediately, some blood seeped out and even fell onto the bone.
In the next second, a strange thing occurred.
The knucklebone actually started glowing with white light. Instantly, it fused with Phoebe’s knuckle, and the two became one!
