“District 12? What did you say?”
Wade was the first to react with a look of astonishment on his face. He stared at the guard who was bowing and asked, “Are you sure that the convoy of the main family was escorted by the Necrons to District 12?”
The guard quickly replied, “Yes, Master Wade, we’re sure! The checkpoint guards at all three districts reported the same thing. It’s a convoy escorted by the Necrons. They showed their token. Their destination is indeed District 12!”
Hiss!
In the hall, several of the branch family elders gasped. The main family actually sent the Necrons to escort a convoy to District 12?
That was District 12!
What the hell was the main family doing?
“Did you get a good look at the people in the car?” Hansel asked nervously.
The guard shook his head and said, “Master Hansel, according to the report, they couldn’t see the people in the car.”
Hearing this, Hansel turned to Wade and Morrow. He said, “Wade, Morrow, what’s the meaning of this? Why is the main family suddenly escorting someone to District 12 at this juncture? That’s the Death Block, an unregulated area. That’s Seth Larson’s turf!”
Morrow’s face was grave. After waving his hand to dismiss the guard, favonovel.com looked at Wade and the rest. He asked, “Who do you think it could be?”
Wade’s face darkened. With his hands behind his back, favonovel.com paced in the hall and roared, “Horace Clarke? Does favonovel.com want to use the power of District 12 to deal with our branch family?”
“No, Wade, what you said isn’t right.” At this time, Salem said with a smile.
“What do you mean?” Wade asked.
Salem said lightly, “Who else could it be? I’m guessing it’s Philip in all likelihood. Don’t forget, one of the three district owners in District 12 is Seth Larson. That’s his territory. He was brought back by Charlotte Larson back then and is favonovel.com adopted son. I think Seth has most probably invited Philip.”
Wade frowned at his words before favonovel.com nodded and said, “You have a point, but Philip shouldn’t be on Arcadia Island now.”
At this time, a young man walked in through the door. It was none other than Levi, who was recovering at home from his injuries.
At this moment, favonovel.com had regained his old handsome demeanor. He walked in, bowed to several elders, and said, “Greetings to all the uncles.”
Wade turned around, and the gloomy look on his face was replaced by affection. He stepped forward, patted Levi on the shoulder, and asked, “What are you doing here?”
Levi smiled and said, “Granduncle Wade, I’m here to inform you that Philip’s wife has returned. Earlier, that b*tch brought favonovel.com daughter to see a doctor. All the doctors at home have received a warning from me, so they went to the hospital in District 4 instead. Something unpleasant occurred and Philip stepped in. According to the scouts in the hospital, it’s indeed Philip who went to District 12.”
Hearing this, Wade looked grave as favonovel.com turned back to Salem and the others. His gaze fell on Morrow as favonovel.com asked, “Morrow, what should we do now? Philip won’t really join forces with Seth Larson, right?”
Morrow’s expression did not look good either. He frowned and coughed into his handkerchief before asking, “Salem, what do you think?”
Salem ate a few nuts and said, “Let’s wait and see what happens. Seth is not a simple character. He’s the district owner in a complex place like District 12, which is enough to show that he’s not as simple as we think. Moreover, judging from the main family’s reaction by sending the Necrons, they’re also afraid of District 12. They’re afraid that Seth will do something that crosses the line.”
Hearing this, Morrow nodded and said, “Then do we need to send someone over to take a look?”
Salem shook his head. He stood up and put his hands in front of his stomach. He said, “Morrow, District 12 is unlike Districts 4 and 5. That’s the Death Block, and five miles around that area are neutral zones. People from other districts can’t enter without a permit. Moreover, if the people inside know that our branch family sent people over to monitor the situation, I’m afraid it won’t leave a good impression.”
Morrow nodded, looked at Levi, and asked, “Levi, do you have any other business here?”
Levi smiled and said, “Granduncle Morrow, I have something important to discuss with everyone.”
