When Charlie heard this, he knew it must be Angus's doing. Angus's parents were illegal immigrants who had abandoned him when he was young. Later in life, he had worked under Janus and witnessed with his own eyes the humble and miserable lives of ordinary merchants in Oskiatown. Now that he had become the boss of the Oskian gang, it was wise of him to make some changes for his compatriots in Oskiatown. Charlie was impressed by Angus a little more. After all, standing up for the weak had always been Charlie's principle. If a gang wanted to improve and develop, they had to look up and far instead of down. If all they thought about was profiteering from small-time merchants in Oskiatown, the gang would not be able to grow big and prosper. Now that Angus had decisively given up the income from the grassroots people, it showed that he had decided to take a different approach to make money for the Oskian gang. The determination to move forward was a good start. Witnessing the livel
At night. It was dark around the Cole family mansion. In the villa next door, the windows were blacked out by the Rothschild family's staff, so it looked like no one lived there. At night, they restricted the entry and exit of vehicles, and all the vehicles were parked idly inside. Unbeknownst to everyone, more than 40 people gathered inside the quiet villa. In addition to Julien and Royce, there were about 30 people who were responsible for monitoring the Cole family mansion at all times, and the remaining 10 people were fully responsible for the security of the villa. The Rothschild family attached great importance to their own safety, not to mention that the eldest son and grandson of the current patriarch were coming to the scene. Therefore, even though the staff had set up traps all around Biden's house, they did not take the safety of the core members of the Rothschild family lightly. Julien was also concerned about his safety and well-being at the frontline, so he we
Charlie noticed two black Cadillac SUVs parked in front of the motel across the street while drinking coffee. Although both cars were turned off and the windows were covered with a thick tinted film, there were people inside, four people in each car. Charlie presumed that these people were the Rothschild family's men who were on standby at this location. All eight of them could respond immediately whenever there was any urgent matter. Moreover, the SUVs had superb functionality and were heavy, which was the best for interception. They could easily stop ordinary-sized cars or even collide head-on. Charlie felt a little impressed. They had placed their men a mile away from Raymond's house. He couldn't comprehend how many people would be secretly watching in the dark as he moved closer to the house. It seemed that it was not easy for him to take the Four-Sided Treasure Tower away without exposing himself. At this moment, several men in civilian attire entered the cafe. Charlie d
"For real?" The two men were astonished. One of them hastily asked, "Core members of the Rothschilds are here too? But why?" The man answered, "I don't know, but from the series of actions the Rothschilds have taken, I can tell that the Cole family is very important to them. Yesterday, the director went to a meeting, and I heard him talking to the deputy director, saying that almost the entire Rothschild family has been mobilized and that all of New York and the area within a 200-mile radius is under lockdown!" "Lockdown?" One of them queried, "Why haven't I heard anything about this?" The man explained, "It is not publicized and is being handled by the police, who have blocked all land routes. They inspect all vehicles leaving the designated area. The reason they are giving is drug enforcement, claiming that based on a tip-off, a large amount of drugs have entered New York." "Besides, all passengers on all outgoing flights must undergo two security checks, and the goods that h
Late at night. Charlie parked his car in a roadside parking lot and disappeared at the end of the alley. The Cole family mansion was located at the bend of a U-shaped stream. The mansion was right at the inner end of the U-shaped stream, so the mansion was not only at the end of the road but also surrounded by a stream on three sides. Not long ago, Charlie had remotely ordered Porter to kill Mr. Jothurn in Cyprus using a high-tech weapon combined with close-in defense artillery, so he knew very well that he must lay low and be extremely discreet tonight. Instead of rushing straight to the mansion, he decided to approach the mansion from the riverbank on the other side of the river. While hiding in the dark and moving silently, Charlie utilized his Reiki to constantly explore the surrounding situation. When he was about one mile from the mansion, he stopped and released more Reiki to explore the area within a radius of several hundred miles near the mansion. Soon, he discovere
Julien muttered in concern, "Everyone else is guarding the main access by land, water, and air, and we're the only ones sitting here waiting for a miracle. What if the miracle doesn't come? Our efforts would be in vain." He then pursed his lips and added, "This is not an ordinary mission. It's related to family inheritance. It will be all over if someone else gets the upper hand." "What do you have in mind?" asked Royce hastily. Julien was silent for a moment and attested, "I think the two of us should divide the work. I'll stay here to monitor the mansion, and you should go back. One is to find other ways, and another task is to monitor the others' progress. We'll see how far ahead or behind we are to others on getting to the treasure tower." "Alright!" Royce nodded decisively. "I'll get the chopper ready now." "I'll arrange it, and tell Hank about it by the way," said Julien. As he said that, he grabbed his phone and called Hank over. After a moment, Hank knocked on the
Skepticism immediately flashed across Julien's, Royce's, and Hank's eyes as they stood in the pitch-black room. Just as Hank was in a daze in the darkness, a loud commotion came from the walkie-talkie. A man said, "What's with the blackout?! All our monitoring equipment is down!" Another man echoed, "All the detection devices are also down! We can't see anything in the control room. The IFF has been disabled!" "What the heck is going on?!" another man shouted in confusion. "The villa has two power lines, doesn't it?!" Someone snapped, "So what?! There is no power now! Who is in charge of logistic support? Why didn't he prepare a backup power supply?!" Someone cursed, "No one said to prepare one! Even if the FBI goes out on a mission, they will not bring a backup power supply unless they go to the Middle East or Afghanistan! With so much equipment and power, what kind of backup power supply can meet the needs? A Cummins diesel generator? Should I get a power truck for you?"
Alas, Brody was too arrogant and had no sense of crisis. Charlie was different. He realized the importance of being prepared for anything, so he always had a wise method to counter the challenges. At this moment, in the dark room, Hank listened to the commotion in the walkie-talkie and barked, "Shut up! All of you! Go and repair the line right now! Everyone else should be alert and keep a close eye on the Cole family mansion! The rat may return to its nest! This time, we will catch it in the act!" Julien jumped in excitement and beamed, "Hank is right! Biden or his family must have come back to take the treasure tower! I told you that Biden was lying all this while. He said that the swapping was all his doing and had nothing to do with his family. From what I see, his family is in this together! It must be one of his family members who came back!" With that, he warned, "Hank, you must hold back! Wait until they get the treasure tower and catch them all in one fell swoop! Reme
