Chapter 770 Dead Or Alive?
Nora and Justin stared at the Morse code translation, both a little speechless.
There was only a string of numbers in the translation, which looked like some kind of code. Apart from that was the name of a bank and the vault number of a safe deposit box.
This showed that her mother had left something in the safe back then. Could it be the V16?
Nora’s brows drew together as she pondered about it.
Justin asked, “When are you going over to retrieve the contents?”
Nora looked at him and then back at the bank
name.
The safe deposit box her mother had set up was in the Bank of New York, but if they returned and went to the Bank of New York so rashly, the people tailing them would surely realize that something was amiss.
But if they don’t go in person… Should they send someone else to retrieve the contents instead, Nora was concerned that her mother might have left some kind of trap behind which would cause the person to fall into the trap if they didn’t notice anything.
Therefore, their biggest problem at the moment was to find out exactly how many people were tailing and monitoring them, as well as how to avoid them…
In other words, they needed to find a suitable excuse to go to the Bank of New York.
Nora sighed silently.
She tossed the ledger aside and thought for a moment before she said, “Let’s find a suitable opportunity.”
“Okay.”
That night, both of them were a little troubled.
They weren’t in the mood to do anything else even when they were lying on the bed. Nora also had insomnia for once. After mulling over something for a long time with her eyes closed in the dark, she suddenly turned to Justin and asked, “How was Jude’s martial arts prowess?”
Although Justin’s breathing was steady the whole time, Nora could sense that he was still awake. Sure enough, as soon as she spoke, Justin’s voice came over.
“It was alright. The gene serum is actually not as scary as we imagined.” “Really?”
Nora was a little dubious.
If Jude’s martial arts prowess was only “alright”, then how come Justin only managed to subdue him after she defeated eight people?
However, the Irvin School of Martial Arts’ moves were light and nimble, and they were known for their strategies instead. Perhaps it did take that much time for them to deal with such people.
Nora breathed a sigh of relief when she thought of that.
She’d originally thought that since Jude was so strong, then the mastermind would surely be even stronger. But if Jude’s skills were just alright, then perhaps the gene serum’s effect wasn’t that great after all.
All her worries were unnecessary.
With that in mind, Nora turned around and finally fell asleep peacefully.
Upon hearing her even breathing, Justin suddenly stood up.
He strode to the bathroom, opened the door, and then took out a first aid box in a practiced manner.
Then, he lifted his gray silk pajama pants.
There was a large bruise on his thigh. He applied some ice and lightly massaged the bruise.
After the massage, he took off his shirt.
He looked in the mirror and turned around in silence.
On Justin’s back was another large patch of bruises. On top of that, there was also a bit of blood. His injuries were a shocking sight.
Had he been an ordinary person, he probably would have been in so much pain that he could not even walk or move. Yet Justin hadn’t shown even the slightest sign of that.
He applied some more ice to the bruises on his back with nary a frown.
