Chapter 579 How Could It Be Him
Chapter 579 How Could It Be Him
A person like the Divine Lord was a criminal of the highest rank.
As soon as his trail was discovered, Skyking City went into full lockdown without the slightest hesitation.
A city-wide full lockdown would certainly cause a certain extent of trade losses.
As long as they could capture the Divine Lord completely, all this would be worth it.
Aside from Oliver Wright leading a team to search for the Divine Lord, George Wright seized the opportunity for a comeback to organize and manage the process during this period of time.
This time, they managed to get hold of the Divine Lord's trail with great effort so they could not afford to make any mistakes in this matter.
The government of Canada made an official announcement on the full lockdown with the reason of preparing for an international meeting happening soon. Hence, it did not cause panic with the public.
Susan Shelby had a vague premonition of the situation judging by how her father and elder brother were bustling about anxiously. Perhaps, the situation was not as simple as it seemed.
However, Susan could tell just by thinking about it that this matter was certainly classified so Susan would not inquire imperviously either.
Susan was drawing design sketches at home on this very day.
After experiencing a considerably radical change in her life, there were some indistinct changes to her design style recently. Her work was growing more and more dazzling and impressive.
Was this considered God’s compensation to her?
Susan looked at her artwork and began making corrections meticulously with a bitter smile.
Just as she finished amending her first draft, someone knocked on her door.
Susan was stunned for a moment, then she got up and opened the door personally.
"Julius?" Susan was astonished ever so slightly as she looked at the man standing at the door. "Aren’t you busy with work?"
Almost all the military officers stationed in Skyking City were bustling about in a tense situation during this period of time recently. Julius Jenner did not seem like a person who had free time to visit due to his position in the military.
Julius cracked into a slightly malicious smile suddenly as he looked at Susan. "It's been a few days since I last visited you. I missed you a little."
Susan was stunned for a moment. Why did she find Julius a little strange today? She took a close look and found that Julius was already back to his usual self.
She believed that she may have misjudged him.
Susan calmed herself and then said, "Stop joking." "Why can't I miss you as a friend?" Julius chuckled in his usual graceful mannerism without any ounce of flirtatious intention.
Susan couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed. It seemed that she had too much on her mind.
Susan let out a cough, then asked, "Is there anything that I can help you with?"
Julius sized up Susan with interest for a moment then smiled and said, "I really have something that I need your help with. Can you please follow me outside for a moment?"
"Where to? What do you need help with?" Susan was rather confused.
An awkward expression appeared on Julius's expression at once. "This is military classified information. I can’t tell you before we arrive at the location.
However, you are the best designer that I can find at the moment. You must help us in this matter, please."
Thoughts ran through Susan's mind rapidly.
How was this matter related to a designer? Also, why was Julius not permitted to explain to her?
If it was really as he described, she believed that she was supposed to help too.
Susan nodded right away. "Alright, wait for me to get changed and pack some stuff ..."
Susan was about to pack when Julius grabbed hold of her arm. "It's an urgent matter. There's no need to change, you look very fine like this.”
He tugged along Susan and headed out.
Susan felt rather helpless but she believed that Julius's matter was truly urgent so she walked faster and followed him.
The Wrights' security guards were very familiar with Julius so no one attempted to stop him when they saw him taking Susan out.
Even the siblings, Rivera and Bruce Chabowski, who followed Susan at all times were ordered by Julius to stay at home with the excuse of military classified information that couldn’t be disclosed to the others.
Rivera and Bruce figured that Susan would not be in danger in Julius's presence so they abided by the order.
They got into the car where Julius drove all the way in silence. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
The ambiance in the car felt a little too quiet.
Susan looked at the side of Julius's face and felt rather uneasy for some unknown reason.
She twisted her body then asked softly, " General Jenner, there are only two of us here. Can you please tell me what is going on now?"
"You will know when we arrive at the location,” said Julius expressionlessly.
"What kind of location is that actually?" Susan continued to inquire.
Julius's expression was tainted with slight impatience. He said without the slightest courtesy, "Stop talking nonsense."
Susan felt her heart racing at once.
Something was wrong!
Something was very wrong!
The person before her eyes looked exactly the same as Julius yet his mannerism and behavior were truly too different from
Julius.
Susan fixed her gaze upon him. "If you’re not Julius, who are you then?"
Julius's hands on the steering wheel twitched. He turned his head to the side and looked at Susan with a reckless, ill-intent gaze flashing past his originally gentle eyes. "You're wrong, I'm precisely Julius. Moreover, I am Julius indeed."
Susan was about to open the door and leapt out of the car right away without any hesitation.
Julius was prepared for that. He raised his hand and elbowed Susan’s neck once without any expression on his face. Susan was knocked unconscious at once.
The corners of Julius' lips cracked into a taunting smile as he looked at Susan lying limply on the seat.
Soon afterward, his expression suddenly changed drastically.
His expression went from the momentary anxious to momentary coldness then to the occasional warmness and occasional maliciousness. The process was repeated a few times before it was finally set at his pair of deep, ghastly-looking eyes.
"Are you trying to get me arrested? Heh-heh. You must be dreaming. From now on, I'm Julius while you, you can sleep soundly in peace," said Julius, expressionless.
When seen from above, the situation inside the car was extremely ghastly.
There were only Julius and Susan in the car.
Susan was in a deep sleep in the meantime.
So, who was Julius speaking to then?
'Found it!
An excited voice was heard coming from the fingerprint identification department.
"Found it?" George and Oliver walked over at once.
"We had been logging the fingerprint of every person living in Skyking City during this period of time then we carried out identification based on the fingerprint database within the shortest period of time. We’ve already found the sample that matched the fingerprint provided by General Wright! The similarity between the two fingerprints is over 90%!”
One’s fingerprint would undergo some changes in life due to wear and tear.
The similarity of 90% was close to a confirmed identity.
"Find the sample and find out the owner of this sample." Oliver's voice was shaking.
Success was close at hand already.
Finding the person would not only signify that an international criminal had been caught.
It also signified that there was hope for his younger sister to be cured.
"Yes." The expert worked swiftly and the result was displayed on the screen soon.
"Who's that?" George looked at the screen.
"How is that possible..."
Soon afterward, a look of shock flashed past everyone's eyes.
They were actually acquainted with the person displayed on the screen. Moreover, they were very close to this person even.
"Can it be a mistake?" asked Oliver incredulously.
It was his fellow brotherhood that fought with him in the past.
“Uh... Please allow me to check one more time." The expert was dumbstruck as well. He examined a few times consecutively before he cracked into a smile more hideous than crying. "I'm certain that this is right.”
Oliver’s body began trembling involuntarily. How could it be him! Was there some misunderstanding behind this?
