Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew) novel Chapter 1917

Matthew mused over his options and decided to find out more about the area before going into any investigations. He sent Rat out on another recon mission, this time to get information on the area where Lord Voodoo's lair was. At the same time, he called Edmund and asked him to send his men out to look into that area as well. Matthew remained in the hotel. He didn't want to show himself, lest Lord Voodoo caught wind of his arrival and escaped.

Edmund's news came quickly. He was a part of the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale after all, and this town was only inhabited by civilians. Through official sources, he got his hands on the details of the locals in this area. The details mentioned that most of the houses in that area were occupied except for three.

Technically, they had been purchased, but most of the time, their owners were somewhere else. The owners of two of the empty houses were working elsewhere. Their parents used to live in those houses, but ever since their demise, barely anyone had come back. The remaining unit had been bought by someone as well, but the owner came back less than five times a year.

Matthew laid the files out on the table and went through the details once more.

Night descended, and Rat returned. "Got something, Matt!" he gushed.

"What do you have?" asked Matthew.

"Only three units are not lived in. The owners of two of those units are born and bred in this town. An outsider bought the remaining unit, but he barely shows up anyway."

"Ah, I know that."

"Sorry?"

Matthew pointed at the files on the table. "Edmund got me some intelligence."
