Chapter 486
Guardian-In-Law by Five Generals
Chapter 486 Dr. Anemo âGodfather?â
Miru was the first to run up to the coffin and pulled Alan out of there with the help of a few founding members.
âIâll tell you later.â
Alan nodded at Kaze. âIâm sorry. I wasnât trying to hide in the coffin. The cover was sealed shut, and my people hadnât opened it.â
âNow that youâre out, you can sort out your own mess. All I want is an answer.â
Miru and the others looked at Kaze suspiciously. They had many questions.
Nevertheless, they got one thing straight. Kaze was not trying to destroy the coffin earlier. He was merely trying to release Alan.
âAlan, you...â
Angel pointed at Alan, looking like he had just seen a ghost.
Alan said indifferently, âYou must find it strange that I am back from the dead even though I was poisoned with Shadowbane Essence.â
Angel fell silent, his expression telling. He could not figure it out.
âWhere are you, Mr. Anemo?â Alan suddenly shouted.
An old man in a lab coat walked out of the crowd.
âHeâs the No. 1 doctor of the South River State, Dr. Charles Anemo.â
An uproar stirred in the lobby. Many recognized the old man.
Alan pointed at Jeremiah, who lay dead on the floor and asked respectfully, âI hope you could also treat a buddy of mine here.
Thanks.â
âJust as well.â
Charles made a beeline to Jeremiah and observed him for a moment before uttering, âLike you, Mr. Sword Fanatic is poisoned with Shadowbane Essence.
âI need to figure out how he was poisoned before I can save him.â
He witnessed Jeremiah poisoned to death. However, he had not noticed how Jeremiah was poisoned.
Kaze said indifferently, âThe matchbox is coated with poison, and the essential oil in the candle serves as a trigger.â
âHow do you know?â
Charles looked at Kaze suspiciously Alan explained, âMr. Lee alerted me about the poison, Mr. Anem âOh? So it was you.â
Charles was surprised. He went to check the matchbox and the candle.
Moments later, he said with confidence, âMaster Cummingham, since Mr. Sword Fanatic was just poisoned, the toxin hasnât spread across his body yet. Give me a moment while I revive him.â
âThank you.â
Alan gave Charles a nod.
Angel brewed with murderous intent âStop him, Mr. Blade Enthusiast!â he yelled.
Nevertheless, Rock remained still. âIâm not one to take advantage. I will duel with Jeremiah once he regains consciousness.â
Rock glanced at Kaze, who stood nearby. He knew that the young man would stop him from attacking Jeremiah.
âYou!â
Angel was livid, but there was nothing he could do to change Rockâs mind.
Charles got down and pulled out a needle to treat Jeremiah.
âI didnât mean to fake my death and fool everybody.â
Alan turned to the puzzled guests and explained the reason why he was still alive.
âWe have a traitor colluding with Cronus in the group. I knew I was poisoned with Shadowbane Essence a while back.
âI was lucky Mr. Lee gave me the heads-up, and I sought help from Mr. Anemo.
âShadowbane Essence is a lethal and dynamic poison, so Mr. A needed time to figure out a treatment plan.
âAt the time, Cronus and his men were eyeing Lefteria Group.â
