Chapter 1867

Matthew contemplated countless possibilities but never imagined that this wooden box would contain a skull! The skull has a decayed appearance and a putrid odor, suggesting that it has been buried for quite some time. Most likely, the piles of bone fragments beneath the skull are those of the deceased.

Matthew gasped, "Melvin, w-what is this?"

Melvin stayed silent.

At that moment, the man across from Matthew began clenching his fist tightly as his eyes turned red and his body shook slightly as if he were about to strike.

Matthew was even more mystified than before. What kind of riddle are these two attempting to solve?

Is there a problem with the skull? He couldn't help but take another glance at it, and as anticipated, he was able to identify the problem. Instantaneously, he tightened his grip and turned to look at Melvin.

"Melvin, where did you get this... skull?"

Melvin did not respond, but the man sitting across from him questioned, "What is wrong with the skull?"

The man's voice quivered as he spoke with tightly clenched fists and appeared highly agitated.

Matthew took out the skull and studied it intently, then furrowed his brows. "This person should have died a long time ago!"

If anyone heard these words, they would undoubtedly burst out laughing. Given the condition of the bones, shouldn't it have been apparent that the person had died a long time ago?

On the other hand, the man didn't laugh; instead, a glimmer of light flashed in both eyes. He cast a sidelong glance at Melvin, who shrugged. "I didn't say anything to him about it. Although I have lied to you several times, do you think I would lie to you about this?"

Without giving Melvin a response, the man turned his attention to Matthew and urged, "Go on."

Afterward, Matthew picked up the other bone fragments inside the box, examined them again, and said in a low voice, "The poison has penetrated deep into this person's bones. He should have died a long time ago with such a lethal poison. However, someone sealed the poison into his bones to prevent it from seeping into his blood, ultimately saving his life. Who on earth could have such miraculous medical abilities?"

As the man turned to face Melvin, the glimmer of light in his eyes intensified.

Melvin shrugged again. "Stop glaring at me, and if you have any doubts, just let him finish what he's saying. Can you tell us something even more shocking, Matty? Look at how skeptical he is!"

"Something even more shocking? Like what?" A bewildered Matthew rubbed his temples.

"Things that people aren't able to see in general, but only you will be able to see," Melvin responded.

Melvin responded with a hearty chuckle, "That's it! This is absolutely shocking!" Then, he added, "Hey, Whitford! Now, do you believe me? Nobody knows how he died or how he was poisoned. Think about it; have you mentioned it to anyone else? Anyway, I genuinely know nothing about it." Read at
