Ten minutes later, Violet came out of the bar with Thora, who was like a dead dog.
She threw her into the car, let out a sigh of relief, and got in.
The mixed-race man sat in the backseat with his legs crossed. He was reading a set of documents elegantly.
Seeing Violet’s returned, he raised his eyebrows and praised her. “You’ve done well.”
Little Lolita winked with her bright and clear eyes, and reached out her hand. “My award, please.”
The man took a purple candy out of his pocket and put it into her soft palms.
The stretched Rolls Royce then drove away quickly.
Not long after, Storm, Zephyr and their men had arrived at the scene.
They were shocked to find the scene in the bar.
Even Storm and Zephyr, who were used to seeing gore, were stunned as well.
The two of them inspected the bodies and found that they were all killed by just one shot. The bodies were still a little warm, which meant they died not too long ago.
Storm narrowed his eyes vigilantly, and inspected the bar.
“Search! See if you can find anyone else here, especially Thora Hanson!”
“Yes sir!” The subordinates got to work.
Storm and Zephyr then looked around to see if they can find any clues.
Zephyr stared at the corpses for a while, and suddenly knelt down. He dug out a bullet from one of the corpses’ wounds.
He took one look, and his pupils suddenly shrank while his expression changed.
Storm noticed the change in his look, and asked: “What is it? What did you find? Is it anything out of the ordinary?”
Zephyr lowered his gaze slightly, and glanced at him for the corner of his eyes while he put the bullet in his pocket.
“Nothing much. The person who killed them is very precise with their marksmanship.”
He said casually and brushed Storm off. He was still murmuring in his head though.
Actually, he could tell who the culprit at a glance.
The only person who could do such a thing, would be none other than Violet Avalon!
Plus, the bullets were indeed extraordinary.
However, he couldn’t wrap his head around why the Cox guy would go against members of the Shadow Clan?
Was it just a simple grudge towards the Shadow Clan, or did they have other motives?
As he frowned deep in thought, Storm could see through his strange expressions.
He narrowed his eyes as he could tell that Zephyr wasn’t telling the truth.
Right at that moment, their subordinates came back.
“How is it? Did you manage to find Thora?”
Storm stood up and wiped his hands with his handkerchief.
“We’ve searched the entire bar, and found no trace of Thora Hanson or any survivors. However, there’s a basement in this bar, and its locks were busted open. There seems to be signs that someone was in there.” The subordinates reported with a stern face.
They could conclude that Thora was held captive in the basement by members of the Shadow Clan.
And the person that murdered them was the one that took her away.
Zephyr felt even more confused hearing their report.
So the Cox guy really did have other motives.
But why would they use such a killer like Violet Avalon just for Thora Hanson?
When did he had anything to do with Thora?
Storm didn’t know of so much inside information, he only frowned in confusion.
“It seems like someone had already beat us to her. We can’t stay here long, let’s go!”
Zephyr didn’t have any objections. Very soon, they left the bar.
…
Meanwhile, Jean had just coaxed the triplets into an afternoon nap.
When he came out of their bedroom, he could see Ian anxiously waiting in the hallway.
“Sir, Storm is back!” He reported immediately.
Jean glanced at him, and said. “Let’s go downstairs.”
The two then met up with Storm, who was waiting in the living room.
As soon as Jean sat on the couch, Storm impatiently reported his findings. “Sir, we were one step too late. Someone beat us to Thora and took her away, and the Shadow Clan stronghold was compromised.”
Jean’s face darkened as he held a teacup in his hands. “Did you find out who was the culprit?”
Storm shook his head. “No, we haven’t. Other than the corpses of the Shadow Clan’s members at the scene, there were no other clues. However…”
He hesitated for a while. Then continued: “I think this was one single person’s doing.”
