"Yes!"
Connor nodded.
"Madeline's father was also one of the eight guardians of Rockefeller. However, both Madeline and her father passed away in an accident—an explosion in a shopping mall. It caused quite a stir in the local area at that ti."
"But what was unexpected was that the murderer was found on the day of the cri. It was said that this person's motive was that he bore a grudge against the owner of the mall. Later, this person was sentenced to death!"
Taran paused for a mont and then continued, "Back then, I also thought that this matter was just an accident. However, Yamino's son was kidnapped once, and Yamino happened to be overseas at that ti, so I helped deal with this matter in his stead."
"After the kidnapper saw , he told a shocking secret. It turned out that the explosion in the shopping mall was not an accident. The real mastermind was Yamino. That kidnapper was also involved in the operation. However, because the amount of money he received at that ti was relatively small, it did not take long for him to squander it. The reason why he kidnapped Yamino's son was because he felt that he had sothing on Yamino. He thought that Yamino would not dare to call the police and would just give him the money!"
"You an Yamino killed his father-in-law and his wife?"
Connor asked Taran in shock.
"That's right…"
Yamino nodded.
After Connor learned of this news, he was also extrely shocked.
How could he have imagined that Yamino would be so ruthless as to even kill his own wife?
"Why would Yamino do this?" he asked in a low voice.
"Because he wanted to replace his father-in-law!" Taran replied.
"..."
Connor didn't speak. He simply couldn't understand that there would be soone in this world who would go so far just to get a position.
"I told you before that Yamino's father-in-law, Tatum Lee, had a very good relationship with Asya of Rockefeller. That's why Yamino was able to have a smooth life in Rockefeller. If it wasn't for Asya's help to Yamino, he would never have achieved what he has today. However, if Asya knew that Yamino killed Tatum, then even if you didn't plan to make a move on Yamino, Asya would!" Taran continued.
After hearing these words, Connor knew that he didn't waste his energy. The secret that Taran grasped was indeed enough to kill Yamino.
"No wonder Yamino has been chasing after you for so many years!" Connor muttered.
"Yeah, if I didn't know this secret, I might not have to hide my entire life. When I first found out about this, I thought that I could use this matter to restrain Yamino, but I didn't expect that I would get myself into such big trouble in the end!" Taran said with a bitter smile.
"Do you have any evidence?"
Connor understood that words had no basis. If there was no evidence, even if Connor believed that what Taran said was true, other people would not believe it.
If there was no evidence, it would not be easy to completely defeat Yamino. At most, it would only cause so estrangent between him and Asya.
"If I didn't have any evidence in my hands, would Yamino be so crazy as to chase after ?" Taran asked bluntly.
"So you do have evidence?"
The expression on Connor's face was sowhat excited.
"Of course. I spent a lot of money to buy this evidence from the kidnapper. There were not only videos of Yamino eting and talking with these people, but also recordings of phone calls. There were five kidnappers who were involved in this incident, and four of them died at Yamino's hands. This kidnapper was the only one who survived. However, not long after I made a deal with him, he ca to threaten Yamino again and was killed in the end. I know that this secret ca from this kidnapper…"
Taran paused for a mont and then continued, "Actually, there was no conflict between Yamino and back then. My initial thought was to give him the evidence, but later on, I felt that I should leave a way out for myself, so I hid it!"
"Where is the evidence now? Can you still find it?"
Connor asked excitedly.
This evidence was very crucial to him.
"Now, this evidence is in the hands of the ancient martial arts grandmaster I told you about before. I think we should be able to find it!"
Taran nodded.
"Then where is this ancient martial arts grandmaster you ntioned?"
Connor hurriedly asked.
"In Solsby!"
"That's great. Rachel and I will be returning to Solsby tomorrow. You can go and get the evidence back, then follow to Yarlford!" Connor said.
"Alright!"
Taran nodded at Connor.
…
After Connor figured out everything, he returned to his room alone.
At this ti, Rachel had already gone to rest.
Connor looked at the ti and realized that it was already past four in the morning. It was probably going to be dawn soon.
After breaking through to the Heaven Rank, Connor didn't need to rest at all. Moreover, he wasn't in the mood to cultivate at the mont. After all, the information that Taran had told him today was too much.
Connor never would've thought that Steven was actually his grandfather.
Back then, when Steven was in trouble, he had indeed seen Connor. Connor had also helped Steven, but Connor knew that it should not be a coincidence. Steven felt that he was very likely to die in the hot sumr, so he wanted to see Connor before he died.
But who would have thought that Connor had unintentionally helped Steven, which helped Steven make a coback.
However, even if Steven died, he would not be able to complete his revenge on Rockefeller.
But now, this courage had landed on Connor's shoulders. Connor felt that although he had been deceived—no matter what, this was his fate. These things had been destined a long ti ago. Even if he wanted to escape, the people of Rockefeller would not let him off.
Unknowingly, the sky finally brightened.
Connor asked Black Tiger to send a helicopter over, sending Connor, Taran, Rachel, Linnie, Donald and the others from Sutie Mountain to Solsby.
Because the helicopters in Winam were old, they were very slow. It took them almost half a day to arrive at Solsby.
Linnie and Donald were originally from Caron, so when they arrived at Solsby, they separated from Connor and the others. Connor gave them a sum of money as a travel fee to go ho. The two of them were naturally very grateful to Connor.
Taran planned to retrieve the evidence alone.
Connor thought for a mont and agreed.
