Chapter 448: Chapter 447: Jia Yun Didn’t Die?
Meanwhile, just as Yusuf Zuck started searching for his second new superpower, the deputy leader of the Dragon Group, Devin King, also arrived at the Shichahai Park crime scene.
He had been swamped with work. After receiving the news of Yusuf Zuck’s missing corpse, he finished dealing with everything at hand before coming over.
However, the scene was not tampered with, and he still brought the truth-seeking expert with him.
"There’s no sign anyone has been here," the truth-seeking expert said after a careful search.
"So what you’re saying is that he came back to life and left on his own?" Devin King gave him a glare and said.
"Yes, it’s impossible for him to have run off by himself. He was dead beyond any doubt. How could he possibly run? So someone with advanced skills must have come and taken his body away!" The truth-seeking expert said with a chuckle.
Devin King shook his head without paying further attention. "Let it be taken, it’s just a body. We shouldn’t make a fuss about it anymore. I’ve already reported his death to the higher-ups. This matter ends here, continue with our work," he said. Of course, he also thought of another person.
Yusuf Zuck’s short sword belonged to the elder Mr. Huang, who looked favorably upon Yusuf Zuck, so it was highly probable that Mr. Huang had taken Yusuf Zuck’s body.
Mr. Huang was a true hermit, a man of the world who neither involved himself nor meddled in any affairs. So even if they killed Yusuf Zuck, Mr. Huang wouldn’t have said anything.
However, what Devin King didn’t know was that on this world, people who had come back to life truly did exist!
Three days later, the turmoil within the Meskill Family in the capital settled.
After the Meskill family head, Gatlin Meskill, committed suicide with a gun, his children were taken away one after another. The nation intended to deal with the Meskill clan, and since the clan itself wasn’t clean, it seemed likely that its high-ranking members would spend the rest of their lives in prison.
At the same time, the three other major clans and even some consortiums began to target the Meskill family’s wealth.
The Meskill family owned many companies and enterprises, including listed ones, so it wasn’t long before their assets were bitten to pieces by these greedy and rapacious businessmen.
The Meskill family was in complete decline.
Yusuf Zuck had spent three full days on the rooftop terrace, and it was only after that time that he finally discovered his second superpower.
It wasn’t any kind of elemental control like wind, fire, thunder, or lightning. Instead, it was fusion, similar to the wall-piercing technique.
Put simply, his body could fuse into walls, trees, or other objects while he was invisible.
Of course, this fusion process was not fast. In fact, it was extremely slow. It wasn’t as if he could just turn invisible and burrow into a wall; he needed to hold his breath, without inhaling, and then slowly inch his way in.
In short, it was very slow. He could pass through walls, but it took about a minute to get through just one.
He couldn’t fuse quickly or pass through walls rapidly, and he couldn’t breathe while inside the walls either.
However, he also discovered that he seemed to be able to hold his breath for a considerably long period. After half an hour of holding his breath in the terrace wall, he didn’t feel much discomfort, just a slight physical unease.
After testing it out, Yusuf Zuck couldn’t help but give a wry smile. This wall-fusing ability was somewhat useful, but for him now, it wasn’t very significant. It took a minute just to pass through one wall, but what was he doing needing to pierce through walls now? A single punch from him could create a huge hole in a meter-thick wall, so it was more reliable to just punch through the wall instead of spending a minute to pass through it.
After concluding his tests and finding no other special abilities, Yusuf Zuck took his phone out. Both of his phones were already charred beyond use, but after he smashed them, the two cards inside remained intact.
"They must think I’m dead, so if I go out again, they will probably continue to hunt me down. Of course, if Devin King tries to shock me again next time, he might not be able to kill me," Yusuf Zuck said with a smirk at the corner of his mouth. Thanks to the Blood Beads, if he got electrocuted once, he should be able to withstand it the next time, like how anesthetics become less effective after the first exposure.
After a moment of silence on the rooftop, Yusuf Zuck turned and went downstairs through the access to the terrace.
This was a department store, and since his clothes were tattered and his hair was a mess, he had to get a new set of clothes and wash his face.
Still continuing on invisible, he could now stay that way for over four hours at a time, allowing him to maintain invisibility for twenty-four hours straight in a day and night, a time span which was undeniably ample.
On the third floor of the building, he stole a pair of shoes, a shirt, pants, a leather jacket, and a trench coat, as well as a hat, sunglasses, and a cell phone, all by smoothly taking them when no one was paying attention.
The bank cards on him had all deformed, not to mention cash, so he was penniless.
In the restroom, he washed his face and hair, which made him a lot more refreshed; after a thought, he also placed the two SIM cards into the new phone.
After powering it on, there were no messages popping up; all messages were lost with the scrapping of the old phone.
He checked the date; it was already February 9th.
He couldn’t stay in the country, at least not for the short term, hence he couldn’t appear before his family or friends.
"Hmm, I’ll go take a look and then head back to Yang Valley," thought Yusuf Zuck, a bit worried about his friends and relatives in the capital, so after leaving the mall, he headed towards the Jade Garden Villa Area.
The year had already passed, Miles O’Brien and the others should have returned to the capital, so he wanted to secretly check and only upon seeing them safe would he feel at ease leaving.
He didn’t take a taxi, nor did he appear in person, but walked invisibly to the Jade Garden.
Along the way, except for two Pomeranians that furiously barked at him, no one saw him; it was fortunate those Pomeranians couldn’t speak, or their owner would have been scared to death.
Upon reaching the Jade Garden, Yusuf first went to Miles O’Brien’s villa, which was empty.
Yusuf entered; in the basement of Miles O’Brien’s villa, there were many jewels, and upstairs in the bedroom, there was a safe. Yusuf knew the combination to the safe, and since he was out of money, he could only take some from Miles O’Brien’s place.
In the safe, there were US dollars, Hong Kong dollars, and RMB, amounting to over a million in total. Yusuf made no ceremony of it, taking everything and stuffing it into a leather bag, which was also his own, bought for him by Miles O’Brien, though he had never used it.
After taking the money, he continued towards his own villa.
At the same time, he finally saw everything inside his own villa through his telekinesis; there were people inside, quite a few of them.
Miles O’Brien, Paisley Kirk, Fleur Carson, Samuel Ross, Pillar, Uriel Arellano, Grey Petty, Isaac Quintana, Wuma, Floyd Hart, as well as Russ Trujillo and Felicity O’Brien were there.
The others weren’t there; Jerome Hart and Faye Webb weren’t there; Everest Zuck wasn’t there; Anna Cooke wasn’t there; Anais Dillon and Mary Berger were also absent.
"So that’s what happened. These days, the capital has been in turmoil. I’ve no idea what’s going on with my brother-in-law. He didn’t even find out the full story before taking action, his phone is off, and just yesterday, to my shock, I saw his sword on the deputy leader’s desk. When I asked the deputy leader about it, he didn’t say anything. I’m clueless about the current state of my brother-in-law. I have to leave soon with Felicity; this time we’re going abroad to South Africa, under the status of military officers, and it’s likely we won’t be able to return for at least two years," said Felicity.
"But my brother-in-law is blessed with great fortune; don’t worry about him," Russ Trujillo spoke seemingly nonchalantly, but Yusuf could sense, through his telekinesis, a hint of sorrow in his eyes. Trujillo knew he was dead; he just didn’t say it.
"So, does that mean she... Ms. Wilcox of Yusuf, she didn’t die? She wasn’t on the plane?" asked Miles O’Brien suddenly.
"Yeah, she passed the security check alright, but for some reason, she didn’t board at the last moment. There’s a passenger list at the airport; three people were missing, one was my brother-in-law, one was her, and the other was late and didn’t make it on time..." replied Russ Trujillo nonchalantly.
"What? So Ruth didn’t die?" Hidden in the shadows, Yusuf, after hearing Trujillo’s words, was completely stunned, his chest heaving violently.
