Chapter 4748

    Ding!


    At this moment, Darwin''s phone suddenly rang.


    The ear-piercing ringtone broke the silence of the night, startling Darwin and the higher-ups.


    Darwin haphazardly answered the call, and ced the phone beside his ear. His eyes twitched, and the phone soon


    fell to the ground.


    This content ? N?v/elDr(a)m/a.Org.


    Quill nced calmly at him. "What''s the matter?"


    Darwin''s face turned slightly pale.


    "Jakai''s dead..." he replied, trembling.


    ''Dead?!''


    A few simple words were enough to silence everyone. Everyone held their breath-the whole ce was emerged in


    pin-drop silence.


    The higher-ups suddenly looked as if they had been rotting in the ground for three whole days.


    Quill, on the other hand, casually held his cup, his arms crossed.


    "Chaos ising to the Golden Sands..."


    Early the next morning, Harvey nced at his phone as soon as he woke up. He saw dozens of phone calls on his


    screen.


    Harvey calmly called a few of them back, and soon found out about Jakai''s death.


    He then called Soren to make sense of the situation, then instructed Thomas to take him to the Verdant Funeral


    Parlor.


    The ce was a luxurious funeral parlor with decades'' worth of history, located right under Indigo Mountain.


    But no matter how fancy it looked, the ce''s true nature couldn''t be changed.


    A thick scent of blood wafted over as soon as Harvey got out of the car, making him frown.


    Even after being on countless battlefields, he still wasn''t used to a sight like this.


    He arrived at the morgue by following the signs.


    There was a huge workspace for the forensic workers, with a lot of equipment and chemicals all around.


    Darwin and Soren were waiting at the entrance. They gave Harvey a mask and a pair of gloves, then signaled for


    him to head inside.


    There were a lot of storage ce for body parts at the side, with a dissection table in the middle of the


    room.


    A pale corpse could be seen on top of the table, with thick bones and calluses around the hands and feet. The


    corpse was none other than Jakai himself.


    Harvey walked over, and narrowed his eyes calmly.


    "Jakai was sent to the hospital yesterday evening," Soren said.


    "ording to their n, they''d fly back to the Heaven''s Gate to see if they could deal with the situation after


    treating Jakai''s injuries.


    "Jakai had been staying in the intensive care unit, since he was emotionally unstable.


    "When the chopper for the Heaven''s Gate arrived to take Jakai away, he was found dead on the couch.


    "His arteries were destroyed with a single hit from the palm. No other traces could be found."


    Soren pointed at Jakai''s chest, where a palm print could be seen. It was clear that an expert martial artist had done


    this.


    "The murderer was strong, probably a peak King of Arms at least.


    "It was a clean and decisive hit.


    "ording to my spection, Jakai died without getting a chance to fight back."


    Soren looked puzzled.


    "Who woulde all the way here just to kill a cripple? Who would hate Jakai this much...?"
