Chapter 505
“So…” Angus continued, “Before the Kleins died, they actually tattooed a strange map fragment on each of their family member’s bodies. If you can piece all the fragments together, you might be able to get a
clue to locate that child.”
It was no wonder that many people were after that body.
Andrius‘ expression turned bitter. An instant realization struck him and allowed him to connect more dots.
Old Hagstorm must have known about this as well because he was the one who had saved Andrius back then. The man must have heard of the rumor as well and was worried that his identity would be exposed.
Therefore, when the Emperor, Registus, used the body as bait to lure out the killer, Old Hagstorm wanted to verify it himself but got careless in the process, hence the Emperor hunted him down.
That was how it happened.
Angus then shook his head. “But the Society has studied the body over and over again and did research on it with all possible methods. Alas, no one was able to find any clues. That’s why it is listed as the first prize in the competition.”
All possible methods over and over again?
The words alone were proof of how many times the body was desecrated.
Bang!
Andrius slammed the table, breaking the table in half.
Angus‘ tea spilled on the floor, wetting the place.
The body was his family! He could not forgive those who disrespected the dead.
“Studying a dead person’s body over and over again. Such desecration…” Andrius‘ eyes glinted coldly and asked, “Is this what the Society is all about? If the Society disregards human rights and morality, they are not fit to serve the people of this country.”
As the Wolf King, Andrius” aura was so strong that it outshone the Emperor.
Angus quivered and immediately knelt on the ground. “Wolf King, please calm down! I actually tried to dissuade them to stop the study. The dead should be respected and allowed to rest in peace, but I am too weak and they keep ignoring me.”
The man looked bitter when he spoke of his attempt.
Andrius‘ expression smoothened over. He knew that the Emperor was behind all this.
Angus was just the president of the East River State Medical Society, and it was considered rare for him. to step up against injustice. He tried to stop it but was not powerful enough.
Andrius waved. “It’s not your fault. Stand up.”
“Thank you, Wolf King.” Angus finally stood up. Then, he suggested, “The only way is to get first place in the competition and get the body so that it can be buried.”
Andrius sighed. “It seems like that’s the only way.”
Since there was no additional information available, Andrius left.
Angus then informed his assistant, “Gary, I need you to arrange today’s dinner seating and the labels.”
Chapter 505
“The seating?” Gary was confused. “Sir, today’s dinner is in respect of Ms. Luna Crestfall from New Moon Corporation, so she should be in the main seat. Why do you want to rearrange it?”
Angus looked at his assistant and grunted. “What do you know? The Wolf King is coming! With him present, of course, he should be seated at the main seat!
“New Moon Corporation would have been crushed by the powerful families from the capital if not for the Wolf King’s support.”
Angus was smart. In fact, New Moon Corporation caught his attention when the nameless company was able to come up with an excellent prescription. He continued to pay attention to the incident with Timothy Kerr as well.
Until the event last night, Timothy Kerr acknowledged that it was the Wolf King who forced him to
surrender.
Only then Angus realized that the Wolf King had been supporting New Moon Corporation and Luna. He believed it was the right choice to hold the dinner in Sumeria!
“The Wolf King?” Gary gasped before he nodded repeatedly. “I’ll go arrange the seating right away!”
