At the headquarter building of the Lu Group in the capital city.
Standing carefully in front of Martin's desk, Carlos said in a slightly low voice, "Master, according to the
comparison results of Mr. Arthur, this Brent, whose original name is Dayton, is indeed a wanted
criminal. He committed a crime of murdering the life of a family of five. It is said that... It is said that he
killed five members of the family just because of a small quarrel. This kind of beast is simply
unreasonable."
Martin didn't seem to be surprised. He lowered his eyes slightly and said, "If Dayton is an escaped
criminal, then it wouldn't be a coincidence that the club he runs has gathered Hugh and the others
there. Arrange someone to investigate it immediately. Don't alert the enemy."
"I've sent someone to investigate it. Master, I have a bad feeling."
Martin looked up, "What?"
Carlos hesitated for two seconds and said, "I always feel that there is a big conspiracy behind it. Who
the hell are they? How could they have such a great power? We have investigated secretly for so many
years, but we can still only have a touch on the tip of the iceberg. Master, I'm afraid that if I continue to
investigate, it will hurt you and sister-in-law."
What Carlos said was also what worried Martin the most. For him, he had never thought that he would
end up well since he decided to investigate the truth of the past. He had no intention of getting away
safely, even if he would die with those people in the end, he would not complain.
But what should Cassandra do?
If anything happened to him, how could Cassandra live alone?
Martin rubbed between his eyebrows, and there was a slight ripple in his deep eyes. He said slowly,
"That's why I asked the boy to go to the police station. Even if those who hide in the darkness are not
afraid of death, they have to consider the police and dare not attack easily."
In this world, there would always be shadows that couldn't be illuminated by the sun, and in those
shadows, it was the easiest to breed toxins. If he wanted to remove these toxins, he had to pay. But
now, he was greedy for the only warmth in the world and lived to death.
It was not until then that Carlos realized why Martin suddenly began to contact with Arthur. Originally,
Martin had chosen a dead end, and the final result was to put his life in danger. But for the sake of
Cassandra, he began to change his original plan and pave the way for Cassandra.
Carlos said in a hoarse voice, "Master, I know you won't leave my sister-in-law alone."
Martin tensed up. To be honest, although he was changing his original plan and starting to plan a
retreat, he didn't know if he could live to the end.
Martin said, "By the way, how is the investigation among the inner personnel of the Lu Clan going on?"
Time and circumstances had changed. It was not easy to find out who was behind that incident, and
Martin was also very clear about it. But as long as there was really such a person, no matter how long it
had passed, he would always find out some clues, and no matter who was hiding behind it, he would
not let it go easily.
Carlos shook his head and said, "No progress has been made for the time being. Although the Lu Clan
doesn't have many staff with real power in hand now, there are too many people in the family. We have
to investigate one by one, and we can't alert the enemy, so the speed is a little slow, but I believe that
there will be news soon."
After a moment's silence, a cold light flashed in Martin's eyes and he said, "Focus on the people who
were powerful twenty four years ago and retired now in the Lu clan."
Hearing this, Carlos was stunned. His pupils shrank slightly, and he almost blurted out. "Master, do you
mean that the manipulator behind the scenes chose to retreat after he framed your parents?"
Martin said, "That's right. Moreover, this person may just pretend to retire, but in fact, he is not weak in
power. He is smarter than Johnson and knows how to hide his strength. If Gabe hadn't mentioned what
happened twenty four years ago, even I would have neglected it."
There seemed to be a boom in Carlos's brain, as if someone had lit a cigarette. He swallowed and
said, "Master, you mean... It was Mr. Walter! How could it be possible? Mr. James was brought up by
him. Other disciples in the clan bullied you, but Mr. James is on your side. If it is really Mr. Walter, then
he..."
Carlos got goose bumps all over his body. He had never dreamed that there was such a hidden
relationship here. If the person who killed Watson was really Walter, then he would train James to stand
on Martin's side on purpose. Wouldn't it be a long planned plan to plant James around Martin?
Damn!
Sitting quietly on the sofa, Martin seemed to be covered with a layer of invisible frost. After a while, he
said word by word, "Get the car ready to see Mr. Walter."
Walter of the Lu Clan, used to be a man of great power, and his strength was on par with Johnson at
his peak. In the past, the two of them were in a fierce battle. Johnson had died, and Walter was now
weak and far away from the Lu Clan, so even Martin ignored that there was such a figure in the Lu
Clan.
Carlos hurriedly said, "Yes, Master. But... Do you want to tell sister in law first?"
Martin's eyes turned cold, "No."
Carlos nodded. "Yes, master. I'll get the car ready right away."
No matter who was behind all this, Martin wouldn't let him go easily. No matter what, he had come to
this point and had no intention of looking back.
Outside the suburb of the capital city.
Not far from the national highway, there was a large manor, which was planted with many fruits and
vegetables. At the gate of the manor, there was a fish pool. An old man in a deep purple robe, whose
eyebrows were all white, leaned against a chair to fish. He was hale and hearty, and a set of expensive
tea set was placed on the small stool next to him.
The old man was Walter, the thirteenth master of the Lu Clan.
At this time, an old man of the same age quickly walked over. "Master, young master Martin is here."
As if not hearing what he said, Walter's eyes were still fixed on the calm fish pool in front of him. After a
while, he skillfully pulled the fishing rod and caught a big fish.
Walter smiled and said, "It seems that Martin is lucky today. Horace, go and clean up the fish. We will
entertain Martin a good dinner tonight."
"Yes, master."
Walter took a sip of tea and looked at the sky again. Then he slowly stood up from the chair and slowly
walked towards the villa with one hand holding a walking stick.
Martin had been waiting for him in the yard. Seeing that Walter staggered over, he looked at Walter
quietly until Walter came over and sat down on a chair beside him.
