Chapter 782

Chloe Collins looked at the two photos for a while and agreed with Heijii’s guess.

Sliding back, she saw other photos and asked, "How did that accident happen?"

Heijii replied, "A gas explosion happened in this house some time ago, and everyone inside was killed. Initially, the incident was to be classified as an accident, but then a relative of the victims suddenly reported that they were on the phone with one of the victims that night, and they heard someone shouting for help and screaming, so the nature of the incident changed."

Chloe looked at the picture, seeing that the house was located in a forest, with no neighbors or surveillance equipment nearby.

"They were Forest Guardians, right?"

"Yes."

Chloe then flipped back to the photo of the pit and carefully examined it.

The south doesn’t generally have snow in winter, and this place was a secluded southern border town, so the things in the stone pit were clearly visible.

The traces in the pit were obviously made by rocks pressed down for several years.

Heijii continued, "The official investigation didn’t have any findings, so they formed an investigation team full of talented people to study this case. Polita said that there is still no substantial tension so far. She has already sifted through all the online traces of every family member, and they had no enemies. They were a harmonious family."

Heijii’s words conveyed his regret for the family.

"If not enemies, then they just had bad luck," Chloe said.

Heijii shifted his position, propping up his chin and looking at her, "I think so too, that’s the only logical explanation. Because that place is very secluded, in the mountains, maybe someone was fighting there and just happened to be seen by this family, so they were silenced. There were no cameras in the house, so the explosion of the gas cylinder destroyed everything."

Listening to this, Chloe suddenly lifted her gaze, furrowed her brows, and raised her hand to signal him to stop talking.

Heijii immediately shut his mouth.

The next second, Chloe said, "There’s movement over there, let’s check it out."

Heijii immediately went next door to check his recording equipment. He had already turned down the volume to the lowest level, so it was inaudible from next door, but it was always ready to record.

At the moment, the device was flashing red, indicating that someone was talking on the other side.

He handed a headset to Chloe and put one on himself, then opened the tracker map.

The red dot on the map remained unchanged, the same as before.

At this moment, a sound like a storage cabinet being opened came through the headset, followed by a conversation—

"The Elder has ordered to put it together with the Platinum."

"Ah? Why?"

"Just do as you are told and stop asking questions."

"But the Platinum is our group’s most important order this year. The client said it can’t be opened or damaged in any way."

"Are you going to defy the Elder’s words?"

"I, I don’t dare to."

"If you don’t dare to, then do it immediately!"

"Strange, what is this thing anyway, and why does it have to be put with the Platinum order..." murmured the person.

Based on the changing volume of the sound, it seemed that he had already moved the fake x-one out of the storage box.

Chloe and Heijii looked at each other and continued to listen.

However, now they only heard footsteps and no important information.

Heijii whispered, "Boss, the Platinum order is the highest-level order in the Dark Alliance. From what they’re saying, the mission is to transport a particular item."

Chloe nodded and became extremely curious about the item in the Platinum order.
