Charlie asked in surprise, “The copper mine is still operating?”“Yes.” The man explained, “The copper mine was purchased from the Cyprus government with legal funds through a legal process.”“Since this is a copper mine that has been in operation for many years, the organization can’t close it down because that would definitely arouse the suspicion of the public. So, after the organization bought the copper mine, it announced that it invested five hundred million US dollars in this copper mine to upgrade and expand this mine.”“It is said to be a renovation and expansion, but in truth, the main goal is to build an area at the bottom of the copper mine that can be used by us and the dead soldiers to live and train. At the same time, the copper mine also retained a few working surfaces. On weekdays, the dead soldiers and their families work in rotation to ensure the normal production of the copper mine.” “To the outside world, the copper mine has more than two hundred employees, bu
“Well, I...”The old man seemed very nervous when he was suddenly questioned by Charlie. He hesitated and was at a loss for what to do or say. He could only subconsciously look at the beautiful young girl next to him. When the young girl saw this, she hurriedly said, “Grandpa, things have already come to this point, so you should just tell this gentleman the truth!” “I...” The old man did not expect the young girl to say that, and he was suddenly at a loss for what to do. After all, he was just the young lady’s servant, and he could understand why the young lady was addressing him as ‘Grandpa’ in public. He understood the meaning in the young lady’s words, that she wanted him to pretend to be her grandfather. However, he was confused when the young lady suddenly wanted him to tell Charlie the truth. This was because he also did not know where he should begin or how he should explain the truth. Before the old man could find his courage, the young girl quickly took the ini
Charlie asked again, “Then, did your father tell you what’s so special about this ring?”“No.” The girl said seriously, “My father simply said that this ring is extraordinary, so I must keep it safe and never let it fall into the wrong hands.”After saying that, she lowered her head and pondered for a moment before she suddenly raised her head to look at Charlie and said in a firm and resolute tone, “Sir, if you can let me and my grandpa live today, I would like to give this ring to you. Anyway, this thing does not play any role in my hands, and it’s always attracting trouble for me. My grandpa and I will find a safe place to live in seclusion after I give this to you so that we won’t have to suffer this kind of nuisance and disturbance anymore in the future.” The old man who was aside was taken aback and speechless for a moment. He stared at the girl with wide-opened eyes, signaling for her not to act impulsively. Nevertheless, the young girl simply smiled wryly and said to him,
Charlie did not notice the change in the young girl’s eyes. After he took the ring, he looked at the seven members of the Armed Calvary Guard again and asked, “Did your British Lord want you to steal this ring?”The person who had been answering Charlie’s question said respectfully, “To tell you the truth, we don’t know anything about this either. The order we received was only to send the two of them to Sweden, and no other details were disclosed to us.”Charlie nodded and then looked at the young girl again. When their eyes met, Charlie sent a trace of Reiki into her mind and gave her a psychological hint to answer his question truthfully. He then asked her, “Young girl, how much do you know about their organization?”Charlie did not trust this young girl fully, so he planned to use psychological hints to get the young girl to reveal everything she knew in order to ensure that he did not miss out on any clues.Although it was unethical for him to use psychological hints directly,
“Okay.” Charlie nodded and instructed, “In that case, you should hurry up and set off.”“Yes!” The man stood up with the six other people. After the seven people had bowed deeply to Charlie in unison, he said, “Sir, we will leave first and head to the highest peak in Oslo City to wait for your next instructions!”Soon, the seven people who had been pardoned by Charlie quickly left the country house and drove the van they had come in to Oslo City.Charlie looked at the grandfather and granddaughter duo in front of him and said lightly, “I want to make some adjustments to your memories. When the two of you wake up in ten minutes, you will forget everything that has happened tonight. I hope that you will not think too much about it. You should hurry up and leave Northern Europe and find the safest place to settle down.”The young girl and old man agreed without any hesitation. The young girl looked at Charlie with a different look in her eyes and said, “My name is Vera Lavor. I wonder
When the old man heard Vera’s words, he hurriedly asked her, “Miss, does that person know that he failed?”Vera shook her head. “Of course not. Otherwise, how could he have let us go so easily?”When the old man heard this, he could not help but sigh and say, “It seems that no matter how skillful he is, it is of no use against you, Miss.”Vera sighed despondently and said sadly, “My father did not leave me with many skills. This is just one of them.”After that, she said to the old man, “Go and pack your things. Don’t bring anything else with you aside from the necessary things.”The old man nodded respectfully, turned around, and left the study room.After the old man had left, Vera took out a small wooden spirit tablet from the desk drawer on which the words ‘The spirit tablet of my late father, Elijah Lavor’ were written. Vera looked at this spiritual tablet carefully and murmured in a low voice, “Dad, I’m unfilial. I’ve given the ring that you left me when you died to someo
According to the law of energy conservation, energy was a kind of existence that could neither appear out of thin air nor could it disappear out of thin air. It was like placing a pot of hot water outside. Even if it finally cooled down, the heat would not disappear into thin air. Instead, it was released into nature through the air as well as through other objects. It was just that the heat of a basin of water seemed somewhat minimal compared to nature as a whole. Nevertheless, it was still tangible no matter how minuscule it was. However, the Reiki that Charlie placed into the ring again and again disappeared like a stone sinking into the sea without any response. Charlie felt more and more baffled. In his opinion, the principle of a magical instrument was the same as that of an electrical appliance, except that the magical instrument needed to be driven by Reiki, whereas electrical appliances needed to be driven by electricity. If electricity was delivered to a water hea
Charlie continued driving forward after putting the ring away.He also silently recounted everything that had happened. There was nothing special about the eight Armed Calvary Guards, but the girl named Vera left Charlie with a vague sense of mystery.Although he had used psychological hints on Vera and there had been no loopholes in Vera’s words, Charlie still felt that something was not quite right. However, after much deliberation, he still could not figure out what was wrong.At this time, an image suddenly flashed in his mind.It was the desk in front of Vera at that time. There had been nine copper coins on the desk.Those nine copper coins seemed to be a complex divination hexagram.As Charlie thought of this, he suddenly thought of the Book of Changes and the Eight Diagrams recorded in the Apocalyptic Book.Among them, in the eight divinatory hexagrams, there was the method of using three copper coins for divination and fortune-telling.Therefore, Charlie could un
