Carvalho was instantly rooted because of Isaac's rhetorical question.
He also felt that this matter was indeed very fishy.
Why would anyone want to specifically rob him?
Why would anyone want to specifically steal the compass that had been passed down in his family?
If it was not a person who had knowledge in this aspect, the robber would have certainly chosen to take the cash instead. Who would choose to take an old compass when the age and value of the compass could not be determined?!
As he thought about this, the first person who came to Carvalho's mind was Falco. 3
He suspected and wondered whether it could be Falco who had secretly stolen his ancestral compass.
Falco originally did not specialize in the mysterious Feng Shui. So, perhaps the reason why Falco had set his sights on Carvalho's ancestral compass was because he wanted to make up for his own shortcomings in this aspect!
As he thought about this, Carvalho did not dare to question Falco directly. So, he could only pin all of his hopes on the police. Thus, he hurriedly asked Isaac,"
How much longer will it take for the police to arrive?"
Isaac looked at the time and said, "I guess that it'd take about three more minutes at most. You can just wait a little longer."
"Okay!" Carvalho could only nod in agreement.
Three minutes later, a young man with an extraordinary aura walked into Carvalho's room. 1
This person was Charlie, who had just arrived at Shangri-La.
Charlie stepped right into the room, and he looked around the room before he focused his gaze on Carvalho and asked, "You must be Mr. Carvalho Mason, right?”
Charlie said coldly, "You're still so concerned about your compass? Let me tell you something. You'd better answer what I'm going to ask you next truthfully. Otherwise, don't mention your compass, but even your life will also be in my hands!" 4
When Mason, who was aside, heard this, he was immediately very angry, and he rebuked, "I don't care who you are, but please pay attention to your words! Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
Charlie glanced at Mason, and he simply tapped his finger directly on Mason's forehead!
Immediately afterward, a trace of Reiki blocked
Mason's central nervous system directly. Mason did not even have the time to grunt, and he instantly lost all control of his body. He was like a person with high paraplegia, and he could not even move at all.
Mason had a horrified expression on his face. He tried to open his mouth and speak up, but he felt as though he could not even open his mouth anymore!
Charlie could not be bothered with him. Instead, he simply looked at Carvalho, who was extremely shocked and horrified at this time, and he said coldly," Master Mason, I know of your background, and I also know your purpose in coming to Aurous Hill. I even know that you went to meet with Falco Xanthos at the Mount Phoenix Cemetery last night. So, you'd better not play any tricks with me. Otherwise, I’ll allow you and your great-grandson to move into the Mount Phoenix Cemetery tomorrow!" 6
