Matthew hid behind the hill and observed for a little while longer before he stealthily drew closer to the court where the Depository was.
He took out a small porcelain vial from his pocket and tipped out some of the white powder onto his palm.
The powder was specially curated to knock someone out for a short period of time. He tossed the powder into the air and let the night breeze carry the particles over to the court. Sure enough, the guards there began falling unconscious one by one.
However, Matthew did not immediately sneak into the Depository. Instead, he retreated to hide behind another hill that was much further away, then waited.
These guards had only passed out for a brief moment when suddenly, a loud noise came from the Depository. It was like someone had sounded the alarm, which indicated that there were more guards in the building.
Upon seeing the guards outside the Depository fall unconscious, the guards inside immediately sensed that something was off and sounded the alarm. Had Matthew snuck into the court right after he knocked out the guards, he would have been caught.
Following the sound of the alarm, everyone in Rathbone Court woke up and bolted for the Depository to see what was going on. Seeing as the Depository was practically the heart of the family, they did not waste any time rushing out to defend it.
Meanwhile, a guard dashed out from the Depository as well and hurried over to Macon's house, presumably to report the possible intrusion.
Matthew followed the guard carefully and found himself standing outside Macon's private court.
Being a reclusive man, Macon enjoyed his own company and did not like crowds. His courtyard was tucked away in a quiet and remote area of the compound with hardly anyone guarding it.
The guard stood to attention and said, "Yes, sir!" Then, he bowed and excused himself while Macon closed the window and returned to his room.
Matthew did not leave with the guard, but stayed hidden behind the hill and waited quietly. His target for this intrusion had never been the Depository, but Macon's house!
He had asked Melvin for background information on Macon prior to coming to Rathbone Court. He learned that Macon was an extremely cautious man who would not take any chances, not to mention, elusive. He also liked to be in control of everything.
A man like him would not trust anyone but himself!
With that in mind, Matthew believed that Macon would never be so reckless as to leave something as important as the secret accounts in the Depository. He would only keep it somewhere he deemed safe, and there was no safer place than his own house!
