In just a few seconds, he had intimidated nearly 50 elite special forces bodyguards patrolling the garden of the manor.
At the same time, the action also alerted the Duke of Devonshireâs family and some of the elite bodyguards in the villa.
Several figures quickly walked out of the villa.
âWhatâs going on?â
âWhat happened? Why are there gunshots and bloodshed in the middle of the night? Why is the manor in such a mess?â
âHow did it become like this?!â
The leader was an old man who looked very dignified, he resembled an old lion.
Jantman Devonshire quickly lowered his proud head and dropped the gun in his hand. âIâm really sorry, Your Excellency. Iâve disturbed your rest.â
âSome nonsense happened just now that made me extremely angry and brought great losses to the Dukeâs family in Devonshire!â
âWhat nonsense?â The Duke of Devonshireâs expression softened a little.
âJust a moment ago, someone came out of nowhere and barged into our manor. He even entered the basement and stole the Qianlong famille rose calabash bottle.â Jantman Devonshire said concisely.
When the Duke of Devonshire heard this, his expression changed slightly. âWhat?â
âSomeone came out of nowhere and stole our familyâs treasure?â
He turned to look at a direct descendant of the Duke of Devonshireâs family.
The family member immediately understood and ran to the basement.
After a short while, he ran back with a very ugly expression. âThe explosion-proof glass door was violently destroyed!â
âI asked the control station to check the surveillance camera at the entrance of the villa.â
âItâs indeed a man who looks exactly like Hook. He brought a woman with him and just left with the Qianlong âLongevityâ Calabash Bottle.â
âThat guy almost passed off as the real thing. Not only did I not see any difference between him and Hook from the surveillance on the control station, but even the motion capture system in the basement did not notice anything unusual about him.â
The Duke of Devonshireâs face twitched when he heard that.
Jantman Devonshire saw this and quickly continued, âWhen the fake Young Master Hook came out of the basement with the Qianlong âLongevityâ Calabash Bottle, I began to notice that something was wrong.â
âBut that guy was very strong. He was even faster than me. He didnât give me a chance to react before he knocked me out.â
âWhen I finally woke up with my super recovery ability and rushed out, that guy continued to pretend to be Young Master Hook and bewitched the patrolling bodyguards in the garden, saying that I was crazy.â
âIn the end, those idiots in the garden believed his nonsense and aimed their guns at me.â
âWhen I saw that fellow being let off just like that, I was really unable to endure it. After which, the matter just now happenedâ¦â
When the Duke of Devonshire heard this, his eyes immediately turned cold. A chill, like a dark cloud, pressed down on the heads of everyone present.
âI can allow my subordinates to make mistakes, but I canât accept your stupidity!â
The bodyguards, who already knew that they had caused big trouble, realized that the Duke of Devonshire was about to lose his temper at any moment. They quickly shrunk their necks and lowered their heads.
The Duke of Devonshire looked around. âAll of you bodyguards are responsible for what happened today.â
âAccording to the laws of the Empire of the Unsetting Sun and the rules of the Dukeâs family in Devonshire, even if I kill all of you now, the outside world wonât say anything.â
The bodyguards trembled.
However, the Duke of Devonshire suddenly changed the topic. âHowever, todayâs situation is indeed special.â
âThe guy who played Hook was too realistic. You canât be blamed for being deceived by him.â
âSo, I can give you a chance to make up for your mistakes.â
When the bodyguards who thought they were done for heard this, they immediately raised their heads and their eyes regained their luster.
The Duke of Devonshire met their gazes and quickly said, âWhoever can provide effective information about the fake Hook, I can pardon him and exempt him from his mistakes.â
âAnd if anyone can provide clues that can help me find him, I can promise to give him a generous reward of at least 5,000,000 dollars in addition to being exempted from punishment!â
