Meanwhile, in another city.
In a dark, narrow room, there appeared a figure of a man full of blood hanging on the wall. He is Evans, the only brother who has a blood relationship with Ark. In contrast to the determined expression before, the expression on his face looked so blunt after such a long period of torture.
“It seems he is no longer useful. He's obviously too stubborn. The kind that wouldn't open his mouth even if tortured to death. Though he himself clearly knew that the people from the group would not save him, even considering him dead.”
Anthony looked towards Evans with a dissatisfied expression. Clearly, among all the people he had captured and tortured, there was absolutely no one so stubborn as the young man before him. Because of the young man, the man was scolded several times and considered incompetent by the chairman of the Crux of Shadow.
“Because it is no use, I will send you to the road calmly. Consider it a gift for having lasted so long, Boy!”
Saying that, Anthony pulled out a dagger.
“You can go, Anthony. I'll take care of the rest.”
At that moment, a female voice came to interrupt. When Anthony turned his head, he found Silvia who was walking forward and passed by him. The woman then pulled out two irons that nailed Evans' hand to the wall. The young man's body immediately fell to the floor violently.
“I've got permission from the chairman.”
“But-“
“The two are calling you. You better leave soon.”
Seeing the cold expression on Silvia's face, Anthony finally nodded with a heavy expression. He obviously wanted to end Evans' life with his own hands, but did not dare to break the order at all. In the end, the man could only leave reluctantly.
“Then you will take care of the rest,” said Anthony before leaving.
Silvia looked towards Evans with an indifferent expression. After learning that Anthony had left, he finally opened his mouth.
“As you can see, no one has come to save you. I don't know why you make such a stupid decision. I don't care about it either. However, before sending you away …
There's something I want to ask you.”
“If you ask about Brother Archie, there is nothing I can tell you.”
Hearing that, Silvia was not angry at all. Instead, he replied calmly.
“It seems that not cutting your tongue is the right choice. Turns out you can still talk.”
After saying that, Silvia instantly grabbed Evans' hair. He then took out something from his pocket, rather, two round grapes in a pure white like milk. The woman then stuffed the two fruits into Evans' mouth.
Moments after Silvia was forced to swallow the fruit, Evans was shocked to see the wounds on her skin close. Although it does not heal completely, but the scars of lashes and incisions completely dry out. The young man then looked at Silvia's figure with a puzzled expression.
“I've received the information I need from you all this time. Also, I'm sure that person is your brother. I can't believe a person like you who is considered smart is really so innocent and easily fooled by him.
In this way, I no longer owe him. Also, from now on …
Evans is dead.”
“Irene, dispose of the corpse to the dump as usual.”
“Understanding, Miss.”
A short while later, a female figure of the same age as Silvia with rare-looking natural red hair walked into the room. The figure of the woman looked beautiful, only slightly worse than Silvia. He had a gentle expression on his face, completely incompatible with the temperament of the lunatics in the Crux of Shadow group.
Irene carried a large sack. Looking towards the puzzled Evans, he said nothing and just put on a smile.
The woman then stuffed the weak Evans into the sack and dragged him away from the dark, narrow room.
A few hours later, Evans, who had previously been tied up in a sack, returned to see the light. Looking around, he found that he was now in a dump. A lot of trash, useless furniture, even a lot of rotten corpses there.
Just then, Evans looked towards Irene with a puzzled expression.
“Why?” asked Evans in a hoarse voice. “Why did you let me go?”
Hearing that question, Irene did not answer it at all. He just looked at Evans as if he was looking at a corpse. After a while, the woman turned away. Really left Evans who looked confused there.
Seeing Irene leave, Evans couldn't help but remember Silvia. He feels very confused. But after a moment of calming down, the young man began to think clearly.
‘According to the woman, Brother Archie is not at all an ordinary office worker, but a murderer from the organization Reign of Shadow?’
Thinking that, Evans felt very confused. At first, he was suspicious, but could not connect everything at all.
Since childhood when they had nothing, Evans knew that Ark provided them. But it was also not something he thought was impossible. As a child, Ark sold newspapers every day. Slightly larger, she works in the market as a pelvic coolie. Right then, there was an aunt who offered him to become a shopkeeper.
In Evans' eyes, Ark himself was truly extraordinary. Not only does he have a good physique, he is also very intelligent. Can count well and learn everything easily. With the help of many in the traditional market, Ark was able to get into school on a scholarship. Not only did he get a full scholarship, he also went to school while working.
As an older brother, Ark also made his sister's life better. He sent his brother to school, gave him better food, and did many things for him.
Although Evans himself also received scholarships, became a top student, and entered a top university. Yet the young man still felt inferior in front of his extraordinary older brother. After all, compared to her brother who started everything from scratch, she herself had been given a better foundation and starting line.
His sister graduated from a good university, working in the office of a company on an international scale. Evans understands that, in the world of work, people without backgrounds like them cannot rise higher easily. But she was still surprised by her brother's performance. Although often overtime, rarely met her, even sent abroad, her brother was clearly quite dependable by the company. So, even though the position is not so high, but also not low.
From childhood to adulthood, Ark clearly appeared transparent in Evans' eyes. Nothing is covered up at all!
Staggered, Evans decided to leave the place immediately. At the thought of his older brother who always seemed indifferent but was actually kind to him, the young man could not help but mutter.
“Kak Archie is very strong and smart. He should have survived.”
While leaving like a street cat trying to heal his wounds, Evans thought of his brother. Only, she would never have expected that her brother would not only survive. Even that person made a large group that was extremely feared and respected. You could say, their lives now …
It is like heaven and earth!
