C554 Death Without Rebirth
C554 Death Without Rebirth
So when he saw Iron Muzhen, who died more than 700 years ago, still being able to keep his corpse lifelike after he died, he immediately guessed that the corpse was soaked in some highly toxic drug water, causing the bacteria in the corpse to completely harden and subsequently become incorruptible.
But then again, no matter how lifelike the corpse was, it was still a lifeless body. Don't look with your eyes, try with your fingers, Tieh Tu could feel the lifeless aura with only his sixth sense.
However, the same corpse, Tieh Tu's sixth sense, did not feel the lifeless aura emitted by the young woman who was not the empress.
Tieh Tu was a bit surprised and subconsciously reached out his hand towards the woman's face.
Seeing Tieh Tu reach out his hand to take the face of the woman, Gao Fei curled his lips in disdain: "Lao Tieh, you can't be thinking of just getting hot before you die, right? "Sigh, you don't even dislike seven to eight hundred years of corpses. What a pitiful kid."
Tieh Tu was seven months older than Jack, but so far he had never been in love, not even held hands with a girl, and had no idea how he had the nerve to say that he was going to pass the book on to his son
Tieh Tu did not get close to women and became one of the main reasons Gao Fei and the others mocked him.
"What are you talking about? I just think there's something wrong with her. "
Tieh Tu's right hand paused for a moment and then moved to the left side of the female corpse's face.
"Bullshit, what's wrong..."
Gao Fei rubbed his nose and sneered. Before he could finish his sentence, he saw something that almost made him wet his pants: Tieh Tu's right hand had just touched the female corpse's cheek, but the female corpse actually raised its hand and grabbed his wrist.
While chuckling, Tieh Tu, who weighed more than 70 kg, was pressed down on the brick bed by the "female corpse" just like a kitten. The tip of his shiny knife was pressed against the big artery on the side of his neck.
"Ah, a dead body!"
Instinctively, Gao Fei jumped up from the brick bed. All the hair on his body stood up at once.
A BMW car that could be seen everywhere on the streets of the Black Forest stopped in front of the Covent Family's castle with a creak. Just as the crisp horn sounded twice, the iron gates of the castle slowly opened.
As soon as the door was opened, the BMW impatiently sped up and rushed in.
"I don't know who it was that came here," he mumbled in a low voice. "With such face, he was actually allowed to ride a car and run around the mansion of Covent Garden's Master Jue (Katrina's late grandfather)."
The BMW did not run down the manor's cobblestone road, but rushed across the green lawn. It did not care about ruining the beauty of the lawn at all, and rushed straight to the front steps of the castle.
As soon as the car stopped, Katrina and her husband, James, walked quickly down the steps.
A footman who was waiting in front of the stairs respectfully opened the car door.
A girl wearing a white shirt, blue jeans, black shoes, and a pair of Large Dark Glasses jumped out of the car. As she hurried toward the Katrina couple, she did not forget to thank the manservant.
"Nier, welcome to my humble home again."
Katrina, wearing a white dress, stepped down the stairs ahead of James and opened her arms.
The girl wearing sunglasses was the CEO of Ion Fund, Nier.
Katrina, who was working in the headquarters of Germanic in the Black Forest, received a call from James. After hearing that Nier was going to visit her home, she immediately ended the meeting and rushed home as fast as she could. She changed into a formal attire and waited for the arrival of the financial queen.
Since Little Caesar was at Cautvan Castle, Nier came once a week.
According to the frequency of her visits, Katrina did not need to treat Nier and James seriously every time she visited them.
But in fact, she was always serious.
The reason was simple: after the Kowant Family had become a strategic partner with Ion Fund, their business around the world had become very lively. All of this had been brought by Nier, so at one of the family meetings, all the members of the Kottwin Family had strongly supported Katrina in using her most respectful, honest, and enthusiastic attitude to interact with Nier.
"We're all friends, there's no need to be so polite."
Nier took off her sunglasses, gently embraced Katrina and looked at James.
James, who was dressed in a black suit and had a butterfly knot tied around his neck, was even more of a gentleman than a gentleman. He bent down slightly and raised his left hand. "Nier, please."
Without any hesitation, Nier walked up the stairs.
When they arrived at the door, Katrina took the initiative to say, "There's still an hour and a half before Little Caesar returns from school."
After mentioning Little Caesar, a genuine smile appeared on the corner of Nier's mouth. She nodded slightly and walked into the hall of the ancient castle.
Nier came to the castle in a hurry because of a call from James: Gao Fei may have had an accident this time.
From the day she met Gao Fei, Nier already knew that this guy had his head tied to his belt. Maybe one day, he would die in some corner.
For those who had killed countless people, death was a mere concept.
But for some reason, after knowing Jack for so many years, no matter where he was or what he was up to, Nier didn't worry.
She stubbornly believed that the man she loved was incredibly powerful. As long as his brain didn't enter water and commit suicide, no one in the world could make him completely disappear.
Nier had such great confidence in Gao Fei mainly because James was worried about Gao Fei's safety.
But this time, when James called Nier, his tone was obviously full of uneasiness.
James's uneasiness affected Nier, so she drove over recklessly.
Sitting on a handmade sofa from Italy, Nier didn't wait for Katrina to ask her what she would like to drink. She got straight to the point and said to James: "James, I need you to tell me everything in detail."
James nodded, and started to talk about it from the moment he entered Handler Forest with Gao Fei and the rest.
When he got to the point where Gao Fei and Sarana were driving towards Mengal, he said: "This mission, is the most dangerous mission we have received since we formed the Sniper Team Squadron, but it was also especially smooth. However, in order to ensure Gao Fei's safety, on the night he left, I personally led people to rush to the Mengal. "
After that, James spent about half an hour to explain in detail what he saw and heard in the Mengal.
After James led his two subordinates (his personal bodyguards who arrived shortly after) to the Mengal and spent two bags of flour, he heard what he wanted to hear from the boss of the inn.
According to the owner of the inn, many people had started a shoot-out on the streets during the day, and many people had died. Later, a brand-new Mitsubishi cross-country car drove towards an old manor in the northwest of town.
Two men and a woman were seen alighting from the car and entering the manor.
The people hiding in the houses nearby heard the sound of intense gunfire.
After the gunshots had stopped for more than ten minutes, only a young man and the woman walked out. After getting on the car, they left Mengal with their fastest speed.
In order to convince James that what he said was true, the hotel owner even invited the person who peeked at everything to explain it to him.
Through that resident, James determined that the man and woman that left were Sarana and a man from the dynasty that he didn't know, but there was no Gao Fei.
In other words, Gao Fei was still in the manor and had yet to come out.
After giving the boss an extra bag of flour, James immediately led his men to the manor.
A few hours after the gunfight, the local Enforcer finally appeared at the scene.
Using James's big hands and feet to deal with a few bitter and ha-ha policemen was definitely an easy thing to do. After throwing out several thousand dollars, the three of them turned into the 'CLA' of the grassland, swaggering to the reception room, and saw the hole in the wall, as well as the secret passage.
After contacting Sarana, James confirmed that Gao Fei had entered the secret passage.
With the 'warm help' from the local Enforcer, James entered the secret passage.
However, James's luck was very good. It was the Enforcer that provided him with the necessary equipment, which was why he discovered the swift undercurrent in the dark river. From this, he deduced that Gao Fei was probably washed deeper by the undercurrent …
In the face of the dark river flowing in the unknown, James wasn't stupid enough to jump into the river to save Gao Fei.
He believed that if he was Gao Fei, Gao Fei wouldn't do this. Gao Fei was swept away because he didn't notice the river.
It was true that brothers had a close relationship with each other, but this didn't mean that they had to follow him in the stupid way of committing suicide.
James had no choice but to leave. He immediately hired some famous geologists and asked them to study the direction and exit of this dark river, hoping to find Gao Fei through the exit.
However, before the geologists could come to a conclusion, an earthquake with a magnitude of eight struck the small town of Mengal.
Fortunately, the citizens of Mengal were sparse, and there weren't many tall buildings in the area, so the earthquake didn't cause too many casualties.
However, a small hill called 'Hada', which was over ten kilometers away from the Mengal, actually sank into the ground in this huge earthquake.
After the earthquake, when James went back to the secret passage, he found that the secret passage had completely collapsed …
"Due to this sudden earthquake, we are unable to find out the direction of the dark river."
Thinking that if he chased after him, he would definitely be smashed by the collapsed ground. James's body became alert and regretfully shrugged: "I came back right after the earthquake and called you right away."
Gao Fei went down the secret passageway. It was completely washed away by the surging undercurrent of the dark river, and the probability of him surviving the earthquake was almost zero.
This was what James wanted to tell Nier.
For a long time after Jack's words, Nier was in a state of silent stillness, her eyes glazed with pain.
Caterina felt sorry for Nier's performance. She put her arm around Nier's waist and comforted her softly, "Nier, there is a saying in the court of God, that people cannot be revived. You must restrain your grief."
