So, she hurriedly told the old man, “I’ll review the information about the missing persons first. If I still can’t find anything, you should help me retrieve information about the relevant persons who have died.” The old man nodded. “No problem!” Vera looked at the laptop again and returned to the information about the first person before she began screening them one by one. Soon, a black and white photo appeared in front of her eyes, causing her eyes to widen. The boy in this black and white photo looked just about six or seven years old. The boy looked handsome, and his features and charm seemed familiar to Vera. She then looked at the boy’s information and muttered, “Charlie Wade, a native of Eastcliff, the son of Curtis Wade and Ashley Acker…” “Charlie studied in Eastcliff Second Experimental Primary School twenty-one years ago, then transferred to Aurous Hill First Primary School twenty years ago. He then disappeared, and information in his file was never updated agai
After saying that, she could not help but answer her own question, “The odds are that this should be the case!” Vera’s guess was correct. After Stephen arranged for Charlie to be placed in the orphanage, he gave Charlie a new identity. Although his new identity was still Charlie Wade, it was no longer the Charlie of the Wade family from Eastcliff. Instead, he was a boy with no parents and was adopted by Aurous Hill Welfare Institute. His household registration was placed on the collective household registration of the Aurous Hill Welfare Institute, which was the case for all children adopted by the orphanage. Therefore, he naturally had a new identification number that belonged to Aurous Hill. This way, neither the Wade nor the Acker families would be able to find him anymore, and the only person who could find him was Stephen. The old man said, “If someone changed his identity, this previous information would not reveal any details then. You have to know his new identity
“Miss, the Charlie you saw looks exactly like Curtis?!” The old man had an incredulous expression at this point. Vera nodded slightly and said faintly, “I can’t say that they look a hundred percent similar, but there’s at least a ninety percent resemblance.” “Ninety percent…” The old man said in shock, “In that case, there shouldn’t be any deviation then. The appearance of the two adults is similar, coupled with the fact that the person’s name is also Charlie Wade. So, there shouldn’t be any problems…” As he spoke of this, he could not help but murmur, “Then… this means that… Curtis and Ashley’s son is still alive?!” Vera’s previous gloom disappeared, and she said with a smile, “Not only is he alive but also living very well! He is very strong, and the members of the Armed Calvary Guards from the Qing Eliminating Society were like carrots piled on a chopping board before him. They didn't have any ability to resist, which was really impressive!” “Is that so?!” The old man wa
“It doesn’t matter.” Vera said with a smile, “I’m already halfway there since I already know his real identity!” After saying that, Vera added, “I’m going to look for him in Oskia first, and if I really can’t find him, I’ll go overseas to look for him then.” The old man hurriedly asked, “Miss, where will you look for him?” Vera smiled and said, “I’ll naturally go to Aurous Hill as that is where he disappeared twenty years ago. All the clues must start from there!” The old man subconsciously said, “Miss, the Wade and Acker families also started looking for him from Aurous Hill back then. After looking in Aurous Hill and searching all over the world for so many years, they still couldn't find him. Yet, you still intend to look for him in Aurous Hill after a lapse of twenty years. Wouldn’t your efforts be in vain?” Vera said seriously, “Since the Wade and Acker families started the search in Aurous Hill and looked all over the world but still couldn't find him, I think Aurous Hi
Vera was silent momentarily, then spoke up and said, “Let me draw up a divination for you then. My level of divination is still much better than that of Oskian medication.” After saying that, she took nine copper coins from her pocket without waiting for the old man’s response. She then placed the nine copper coins on the coffee table before her. As before, she divided the copper coins into three rows and grabbed the first three coins in a diagonal manner before she threw them on the table. Immediately afterward, she looked at the hexagram of the copper coins, then frowned and said, “The hexagram shows that your life expectancy is coming to an end, and you only have half a year left at most.” “Half a year?” The old man’s expression froze and was rooted to the spot as if a spell had been cast on him. However, he quickly returned to his sense and smiled wryly. “Although it’s a little shorter than I expected, it’s fine. Half a year is enough time for me to settle my affairs an
“Aurous Hill?” The old man asked in surprise. “You mean that my birth gate is in Aurous Hill?” “Yes.” Vera nodded slightly and said, “It seems you should go to Aurous Hill with me!” The old man hurriedly asked, “Miss, may… may I go with you?” “Of course.” Vera nodded and said, “Since your birth gate is in the south and is related to me, Aurous Hill is the most likely place. Let’s go there together. You'll be able to live to a hundred years old if we can find your birth gate.” The old man was extremely excited and said reverently, “Thank you for your kindness, Miss!” After that, he trembled and was about to kneel. Vera quickly got up to stop him and said seriously, “You don’t need to kneel to me. Although this birth gate is related to me, it’s by no means something I can bring to you, so you still have to go to Aurous Hill to find your own chance encounter. What I can do for you is perhaps to wish you good luck in your search.” The old man nodded hastily and sobbed, “Thank
“Oh heavens!” Logan exclaimed. “Miss, why are you at Emmett’s place?” Vera said, “I have some personal matter, and I came here to ask for his help.” After saying that, she got straight to the point and said, “I plan to go to Aurous Hill and may need to live in Aurous Hill for a while, so I would like to ask if you have a house in Aurous Hill that I can settle down in temporarily.” Logan immediately replied without hesitation, “Yes, of course! I have a hilltop mansion on Scarlet Pinnacle in Aurous Hill inside the forest park that’s not open to the public! It's a private mansion specially approved by Aurous Hill when I returned there with my wife to invest in construction. I also built a special road leading to the mansion, and this forest park is located in the urban area of Aurous Hill, so it’s convenient to go anywhere. You can stay there if you are going to Aurous Hill! I also have a few cars and a helicopter, and they are all taken care of.” Vera said, “Great. Please help me
Vera’s style of action was very fast-paced without any sloppiness. After hanging up the phone with Logan, she immediately told Emmett, “Mr. Sandsor, I need you to help me arrange a plane. I'll go to Malaysia now.” Emmett hurriedly asked, “Miss, why don’t I go with you?” Vera waved her hand and said seriously, “There's no need for that. You have a special status, so things will be easily exposed in the future if you leave a record of the two of us leaving the country together. I’ll go there myself using the identity I entered the country with, and I'll return with a new identity. I'll head to Aurous Hill directly when I come back. You should meet me in Aurous Hill when the time comes.” When Emmett heard this, he nodded and said, “Understood. I’ll wait for your news in Eastcliff. I'll meet you after you arrive in Aurous Hill.” “Okay!” Vera asked him, “When will the plane be able to fly at the earliest?” Emmett hurriedly replied, “There's a Gulfstream G700 business jet on sta
