Chapter 450 An Irrejectable Phone Call

It took Daniel forever to crawl through the gates. The instant he finally did so, he held his broken leg and whimpered through clenched teeth like a hurt puppy.

 

The Anderson Family’s servants hurriedly rushed to him and Russell. After helping the father and son up, they took to their heels and ran away swiftly.

Danny was baffled at the sight of the scene. “What’s going on, Elise? That spoiled rich dandy of the Anderson Family, isn’t he your cousin?”

 

Instead of answering his question, Elise walked out and entered Joseph’s room in the yard next door.

 

Joseph was working on his computer. Upon seeing Elise, he heaved a sigh of dejection. “I still can’t reach Xavier.”

 

Elise asked, “Don’t you have a way to bypass the internal communication tools and contact SK Group’s members directly after running the group for so many years?”

 

Joseph shrugged his shoulders. “As you said, I’m in charge of running the group, not of developing softwares. Perhaps we should contact A, the mysterious hacker, for this. But A’s gonna charge us… and SK Group has a limited budget.”

Elise fell silent for a moment. Then, she took over the computer, working briskly on it with a speed that took Joseph’s breath away. Soon, lines of code appeared on the computer’s screen.

Joseph noticed that Elise was working on two monitors, which were running different programs simultaneously. As SK Group’s leader, Joseph had seen many talented people, and the top hackers he had seen before were too numerous to enumerate. All of them, however, paled in comparison with Elise.

Five minutes later, Elise struck a key on the keyboard. “Alright, it’s done. In ten minutes from now, only you can reach Xavier by phone. Hurry up!”

“Okay.” Before Joseph could marvel at her skills, his body had reacted first by taking out the phone and dialing Xavier’s number.

Meanwhile, in Lithium City, Xavier arrived at the periphery of Timothy’s dwelling place by following up on recently obtained information. An incredibly patient hunter, he wasn’t in a hurry to catch his prey. He lay in ambush outside, waiting for the safe period to be over before he went into action.

Lithium City had very sparse vegetation, so the only place to hide was the yellow earth. Luckily, Xavier came fully prepared. At this very moment, he was in a pit that he had dug on the spot. It was covered at the top with straws and soil. There was only an opening, which was only big enough for a pair of binoculars to poke through for spying.

When Xavier’s phone rang, he was standing behind his binoculars, spying on the legendary physicist and his wife with a grave expression. Dressed simply and spectacled, the couple were typical high intellectuals; even their haircuts had a bland feeling about them. However, no amount of soil could hide the scholarly vibes that emanated from their souls.

The hiding period had already ended. Tonight, he would show himself and take the couple away. Otherwise, he would be beaten to it by other people who got here after learning about the information.

Just then, however, his phone began vibrating like mad with a continuous buzz.

Xavier picked it up and took a glance at its screen. It was a phone call from an unfamiliar number, but he didn’t intend to answer it. Before his mission was complete, he would block all incoming calls on his phone to avoid being affected by the outside world. At the thought of this, he pressed the ‘Decline’ button.

However, what happened next surprised him. His phone kept vibrating, and he couldn’t reject the phone call no matter what.
