Chapter 860 How Many Men Died

They ate and drank their hearts out.

Raphael and Donald hadn't seen each other for years. They chatted and drank a lot.

This was the first time Jennifer had seen Donald so delighted, and out of consideration, she refrained from interrupting them.

Rising from her seat, she said, “All right, I'll give you the night off so you can enjoy quality time with your friend. I'll take my leave with Hannah and Geraldine.”

Donald was about to say that it wasn't necessary, but before he could say anything, Raphael flung his arms around him in a warm embrace.

“Jennifer, don't worry. I'll drive Donald home tomorrow morning.”

Jennifer gave Donald a look before leaving with her friends.

As soon as Jennifer and the others left, Raphael swiftly sat up even though he had appeared all tipsy and couldn't even sit up straight earlier.

He retrieved a warm towel from the table and wiped his face. “Donald, your wife is quite caring, huh? She even gave you a day off.”

Donald finished his wine and responded calmly, “My wife is caring, huh? I thought you told her something when I went to the restroom earlier.”

Even though Donald had seen through his trick, Raphael did not feel awkward at all.

He inched closer to Donald and said, “Donald, I can't wait any longer. I lied to Jennifer when I said I wanted you to be the security consultant for the spirit stone mines. Truth is, my subordinates aren't as skilled as Horizon Group, but they do have their strengths. What I truly desire is your assistance.”

“Stop talking nonsense. Tell me, did you run into trouble?”

As they were now alone, Raphael pulled out his tablet and showed Donald a video.

The video depicted mining activity in the spirit stone mine, with a group of well-equipped miners standing ready at the entrance in the distance, prepared to venture inside.

However, as soon as two miners entered the mine, a deafening explosion echoed within its depths.

It was as if a bomb had exploded in the mine, and the miners lining up at the entrance were killed upon impact.

The guards at some distance away also sustained injuries. Many of them rushed toward the explosion site with weapons to find out what had happened. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

Right then, two guards who were running to the site got slayed in half, and they died on the spot.

Donald furrowed his brows. He couldn't figure out what happened after watching the video, for the enemy seemed to be really invisible.

He was about to take a closer look when the video came to an end.

“That's it?” Donald glared at Raphael, his displeasure evident. He had reached the most intriguing part, only to be abruptly cut off.

Raphael flashed an awkward smile. “You can't blame me for that, Donald. This is the only video we found after arriving at the scene. However, there is more information on this tablet. Would you like to read further?”

Donald took the tablet and continued perusing the details.

The additional information was some analysis that Raphael and the rest did after arriving at the scene.

“Based on the autopsy results from our forensic expert, what we can confirm now is that these guards all died from a type of highly sharp energy blade. Furthermore, we discovered a considerable amount of radiation residue at the scene, indicating that this individual capable of invisibility might very well be a radiation source themselves.”

“How many men died?”

Raphael scratched his face before responding, “Including the guards, a total of fifty men died.”

“Fifty?”

Donald's lips curved into a knowing smile. He finally understood why Raphael was so eager to seek his help.

With so many people dead, the compensation alone amounted to a substantial sum.
