Chapter 5624
The Charismatic Charlie Wade
Nicolas continued: âDuring this period, your sister didnât tell us anything strange,â
âAnd she didnât entrust us with anything. She kept things in custody until she returned to the United
States for the last time one year before her death.â
âShe only told us about the situation of the Warriors Den.â
âBut she didnât give us anythingâ¦â
âSo what I donât understand is that The Warriors Den has been watching us for twenty years, what
exactly are they watching?â
Charlieâs third uncle, Martel, had been silent for a while, and then asked with some doubts,
âDad, could it be that they thought my sister would give us something?â
âAnd it took them twenty years to finally confirm that my sister didnât leave us anything useful to
them,â
âSo they became angry and wanted to kill us.â
Nicolas thought for a while, and said âThe things you said are theoretically tenable,â
âBut I donât think they should be so stupid.â
âThey are so powerful, how could it take twenty years for them to confirm such a small matter?â
âAccording to Charlie, there is a huge disparity between their strength and ours.â
âThey have been observing us secretly for 20 years, just like squatting on the ground with nothing to
do,â
âStaring at an ant for 20 years, just to pass the time?â
âSo there must be a motive behind this that can match the twenty years of time and energy they
have invested.â
Martel nodded lightly, and said, âDad, what you said makes sense⦠â
Nicolas looked at Duncan and said, âDuncan, you are a famous detective.
What do you think about this matter?â
Duncan said, âFrom my experience in solving cases for so many years,â
âThe bigger the case, the more time is needed to do preliminary preparations,â
âJust like the analogy you just made, Uncle, the possibility of a person staring at ants for 20 years
just to pass the time is very slim.â
âIf he really studied ants for 20 years, then his purpose is probably not to study a method to
completely exterminate the ants,â
âSo I agree with you, they must have a great motive.â
After speaking, Duncan said again, âAs for why they are attacking Anâs now, I donât know.â
âI think there are two possibilities, one is according to their plan, that is to do it now to achieve their
real purpose,â
âAnd the other is that they didnât think to do it now, because of other reasons, they were forced they
started ahead of time.â
Charlie pondered for a moment, and asked Marshal, âUncle, have you read the
âPrologue to Nine Profound Heavenly Scripturesâ?â
Marshal shook his head and said, âI was not interested in these things at all, so I didnât pay
attention.â
Charlie asked again, âThen do you know where this book went?â
âI donât knowâ¦â Marshal continued to shake his head,
âAfter your parents studied that book, they went to China and I donât know exactly where the book
went.â
Charlie nodded, it seemed that his parents left the United States and returned to China, which was
not what he thought before.
Before, because in Charlieâs memory, his grandfather was relatively indifferent to his father,
He always thought that his parents were in all kinds of pressure from his grandfather,
So he resolutely returned to Eastcliff, laying the groundwork for his future murder.
But now it seems that they should have obtained the âPreface to Nine Profound Heavenly
Scripturesâ by accident in the United States.
After studying this book, the two made the decision to return to China,
And their real motivation for returning to China should be to explore the mystery of âNine Profound
Heavenly Scriptures.â
The secret of longevity mentioned by Jermo before his death may be related to the clues drawn
from the Preface to the Nine Profound Heavenly Scriptures.
Thinking of this, Charlie suddenly thought of a detail, so he asked Nicolas,
âBy the way, Grandpa, before my parents left Eastcliff for Aurous Hill,â
âThey had a lot of trouble with the Wade family.â
âIt is said that it was because of the relationship with the Routhchild family.â
âThere has been some conflict, have you heard of this matter?â
âYes.â Nicolas said, âYour father did have some troubles with the Routhchild family back then,â
âAnd the widely rumored version is that the Routhchild family wanted to take root in China to
expand interests, so they had been fighting openly and secretly with the major families in China.â
âAt that time, your father gathered many families to declare war on the
Routhchild family.â
âAfter fighting with the Routhchild for a few rounds, they withdrew from
China, and at the same time held a grudge against your father.â
Charlie frowned and said, âYou said it was the version widely rumored by the outside world, but
what about the actual situation?â
Nicolas smacked his lips and said, âThe actual situation is very subtle.â
âAs far as I know, the Routhchild family didnât want to target those big Chinese families at first.â
âThey originally wanted to form joint ventures with domestic families in several hot fields,â
âAnd even took the initiative to show their favor to your father. As a result⦠â
Speaking of this, Nicolas sighed, and said helplessly, âAs a result, your father gave them a financial
intrusion label as soon as he came up,â
âAnd then relied on his own influence to gather a lot of financial and material resources to give them
a big blow.â
âLater, the person in charge of the Asia-Pacific region of the Routhchild family took the initiative to
visit him in Eastcliff,â
âBut he didnât say anything, and was slapped by your father, and finally came out of your fatherâs
office, covering his face.â
âAfter leaving Eastcliff Airport, he flew directly back to the United States to complain to the person in
charge of the Routhchild family.â
Charlie was dumbfounded, and blurted out, âIf the negotiation was not good, the other party would
be slapped in the face. This should not be my fatherâs style of behavior, right?â
Nicolas nodded, âItâs really not your fatherâs style, but that charge was indeed slapped by your
father.â
Charlie was even more confused, and murmured,
âIn my impression, my dad is still a very gentleman, how could he fight with him?â
Everyone was also confused, and Nicolas smacked his lips and said,
âAt that time, from the head of the Routhchild family, all the complaint calls had come to me, and I
couldnât figure it out, why did your father do this.â
Duncan asked curiously at this time, âUncle, you said that Changying slapped the head of the
Routhchild familyâs Asia-Pacific region.â
âWhat year was it?â
Nicolas thought for a while, and said, âIt must have been a few months before their accident,â
âAnd Changying was kicked out of the house by the Wade family because of this incident.â
Duncan said suddenly âDid he do this to annoy the Routhchild family on purpose,â
âDeliberately create opportunities for himself, and let himself be kicked out by the Wade family?â
âI think he may have sensed the danger at that time,â
âAnd deliberately used this method to draw the line with the Wade family?!â
