Returning from the abyss

Chapter 1064 The Island Shrouded in Storms

Just north of Hachimejima is a high mountain, and the club house on the top of the mountain is Lynwood's favorite place to live. He and his wife Miria will live here every time, enjoying the feeling of being commanding.

And today, we have a visitor here.

Dimitri Howard is the first adopted child of Lennix and the veritable second brother in the family.He is not like Lynnwood. If Lynnwood perfectly inherited Rennix's ambition and determination, then Dimitri is more like the free and unpredictable side of Rennix.

"Brother, it's been a long time."

Dimitri, who was holding a pipe, smiled lazily, and beside him was a more bohemian man.Lionwood opened the door and saw the two, with a rare smile on his face, allowing them to walk in.

"Nice to meet you, Jack Swan, our great adventurer."

After letting the two of them into the living room, Miria served tea for them, and then sat beside Lynwood.

Lionwood revealed the man's identity when he opened his mouth, and the man was not surprised. He raised his hand slightly to salute, and said, "It seems that this guy Dimitri invited me because of your hint?"

"Hint? No, no, no, I clearly told my younger brother to invite a trustworthy friend who has enough guts and courage." Lionwood laughed.

"I understood what big brother meant when I heard it. Ha, is there anyone I know who is more reliable than you?" Dimitri picked up the tea and drank it up, smacking his lips, "Sure enough, I'm still not used to it Tea, Miria, can I have some good wine next time?"

"If you don't need to talk about important things, that's okay." Miria smiled with downcast eyes.

"Drinking is easy to make mistakes...but you are indeed an exception." Lionwood gestured to Miria, Miria nodded, and got up to get the wine.

"What did Lu Ning say?" Dimitri asked.

"I won't live long, about three months." Ryanwood sneered, "Watanabe Fuko, the new nutritionist's judgment is similar. But three months is enough for father to delay this gathering. Wait for us Leaving this island, there is no chance of knowing what his good thing is."

"Maybe it's because he believes in God?" Jack said with a smile.

"That's just an external image. What he believes in is definitely not God, he will only believe in things that are truly effective. Otherwise... what happened to those people who recruited to the island every year?" Dimitri laughed Said, "Brother, what do you think?"

"Isn't that a very simple question?" Ryan Wood whispered, "Even if he is old, he is still our father. His experience and experience are far better than ours. You don't think he would have thought that we would have something to do with his legacy." Conspiracy?"

"Hmph, I remember you said that father liked the family very much." Dimitri said.

"Back then? Dimitri, don't say things that make me feel funny now." Lionwood snapped his fingers, "We want to maintain the superficial family harmony."

"Yes. Then, dear brother, can you explain what father's plan is?"

"What do you think he's looking for people with weird powers for? What do you think people are after who are going to die and still have a lot of wealth and power?" Lynwood said. "He knows we want his legacy, but Of course he will not easily let go of what he owns, whether it is wealth or life."

"Tsk, is there really?"

"Milia." Lynwood whispered, and a bottle of wine suddenly appeared on the table.

Dimitri and Jack's eyes widened.

"This is not a mechanism." Miria appeared behind Lynwood's seat, "Invisibility is a common power."

"Common?" Jack narrowed his eyes, "I wonder how long Madam has been here?"

"About 1 minute." Miria replied.

"But through the chair and my brother, you can make the wine bottle appear on the table, which means that even if the thing leaves you, you can make it invisible...It's very interesting."

"Can you not be so artificial in your surprise?" Ryanwood said, "I don't believe that you can't understand my hint, let alone that you can underestimate your father. Among these adopted sons and daughters, only your ability makes me appreciate."

"You are still so arrogant, Lynwood. I hope your arrogance does not make you think that you can easily defeat your father."

"I am the one who has been educated by my father for the longest time." Lionwood asked Miria to sit beside him, raising his chin slightly, "Since you have reached this point, why don't you comment on our younger siblings?"

"Oh?"

"Felicia, our good sister. After taking over the part of the company that belonged to her, she began to expand at a high speed. In just a few years, she merged and defeated more than a dozen competitors in various ways. Opponents, I am afraid that they are currently struggling with anti-monopoly prosecutions."

"Money can bring her a great sense of security and self-confidence." Dimitri nodded, "It's just that it makes her very tired."

"She enjoys it, what do you care about her? Besides Juno Ito...you should have heard about him."

"Luxury hotels, amazing delicacies, dinner parties for high-class people... right? He is really talented in this area." Dimitri said, "No one can compare to him in eating, drinking and having fun. But apart from his talent in this area, his own ability is really not very good. It was also his luck that he found the woman Saotome."

"Saotome Arisa is not a simple woman, she is very tolerant, and she can also find Juno Ito, a guy who has no interest other than organizing banquets." Ryan Wood said.

"My point of view is not the same as yours, Lynwood." Dimitri laughed, "Instead, I think Juno Ito has found a good opportunity to focus on his hobbies. It is indeed his luck to find Saotome, But is this what Juno Ito also wants?"

"Ha. That's also possible. After all, the old man specially trained people..." Lionwood nodded, "Next, Huo Yinglong. He really likes to find a quiet place."

"Because he needs self-cultivation, right? I thought that a violent guy like him didn't meet my father's selection criteria at all, but I didn't expect my father to choose him as an adopted son. There are obviously many better children in the same group." Dimi Terry said.

"Father has his purpose, I'm sure. What about Cynthia? She has found four or five girlfriends. Compared to that little girl, Mayuri Daita, I think Cynthia's private life is more corrupt."

"Dai Tian is just an insecure child. She has just grown up, and we have divided most of her property. She is probably very worried about her share, and she is even more worried that her boyfriend is also arranged by someone... see Look at Felicia, Mayuri still needs to grow up." Dimitri said with a smile, "Of course, compared to Juno Ito, Mayuri is the one who is unlucky. The boyfriend she suspects is really Everyone has problems... Haha, people who don't know the inside story may also have misunderstandings because of it."

"So you don't like Cynthia."

"You can't say that among family members, Lynwood." Dimitri shook his head, "Cynthia is indeed a very unique girl, but don't forget that I am also a person with a similar personality. Sexual orientation and personal life don't matter at all, I just care about whether the person and I can talk, and in this regard, let's be honest-it's easier to talk to Cynthia than to talk to you."

"Ha." Lionwood chuckled lightly.

Dimitri handed the bottle to Jack, and Jack took out a multifunctional knife from his pocket, pried off the bottle cap, and poured it into Dimitri's empty teacup.

"Thanks, old friend." Dimitri picked up the cup, and this time he began to sip the wine in the cup like a cup of tea, and after a few sips, he put down the cup and said, "So what do you want to say? What about it? Brother? Do you mean that the old man specially gathered seven of us children who meet the conditions of the seven deadly sins to complete some mysterious ceremony?"

"Hmph, since you've noticed it, you haven't thought about the problem?" Lionwood snorted coldly, "He trained the seven of us, starting with me. If this is really a preparation for a ceremony, isn't it Said that this plan was prepared when my father was young? Is this really the first time such a ceremony has been prepared, my dear brother?"

Dimitri also stopped laughing.

"Rainix Howard started his fortune at the age of 21 and grew rapidly. At the age of 26, he had established the prototype of his own business empire. At the age of 35, his wealth and power were in full swing. His only biological son, Lynn Wood, was born at the age of 29. And The life history of Lennix Howard before the age of 21 ... is almost impossible to find."

Boom!

Rolling thunder sounded outside the window, the sky was already overcast, dark clouds were all over the sea, and a storm was gaining momentum.

It is 03:30 in the afternoon.Lynwood glanced at the wall clock on the wall, and suddenly felt that the time had not come to night, but it was already dark outside.

"Lynwood... We are going back. It looks like there will be a heavy rain tonight, and maybe a thunderstorm." Dimitri stood up and took the bottle of wine in his hand.

"Well. See you at the family dinner tomorrow."

"Tomorrow...haha, Lynwood, do you like watching detective novels and mystery movies?"

"what?"

"Isolated island, isolated from the world, seemingly harmonious family, a patriarch who is about to die, and a lot of wealth... Now, he has added incredible abilities." Dimitri raised his eyes and glanced at Miria, "This is a man. Excellent case preview."

"Really? Well, I hope tomorrow morning, you're not that corpse, Dimitri." Lynwood said calmly.

"Hahaha, indeed, it is indeed you...Lynwood. Jack, let's go and give my brother and his wife some private space."

After speaking, Dimitri and Jack left.

At the end of the corridor on the fourth floor of the drowsy main building, in Renix's room.

Renix had stood up from the easy chair.With his hands behind his back, he walked towards Yuangu Sikong.

At this time, there were a few more people in the room than when Felicia visited.

"Mr. Writer, you have already met several of my children." Renix breathed steadily and uttered words clearly. At this time, he did not look ill at all.

Tsuburani Temple Sora nodded repeatedly, and showed Renix his filled notes.

"This is a very good subject, isn't it? I hope you can witness and record all this. I will help you, and my friends will help you, but, as we agreed before, this story you It cannot be published at this time.”

"Of course, Mr. Renix, I came here for this purpose, and I also agreed to your conditions." Tsuburani Terakura said.

"Gustav." Renix turned to his old friend at the door.

"Your choice is very good. Among these children, even the most cowardly Mayuri Daita has a little thought." Gustav put his hands in his pockets, and every time he took this pose, it showed that he was serious. treat something.

"Of course, under my education, they will not lack ambition and desire. If they want to maintain the property in their hands, they can't just rely on the people under them. If they are incompetent, they will quickly empty that useless waste."

"Need I remind you? You have left enough equity for these children. Even if you want to empty them out, unless you are a fool, it will not be that easy."

Behind the curtain of the room, a graceful elderly woman suddenly appeared and spoke.

"Nowadays, anyone who believes that having an advantage in equity will be able to control everything is really stupid. Justina, I'm not so old." Renix waved his hand, "But I'm very happy, I My old friends, you once again responded to my invitation, and we meet again."

"Howard, those few children are not the only ones who are interested in your inheritance." Lian Qingyi, who was sitting there like a magic stick, said, "In my opinion, the new servants on this island, as well as the ones you are looking for Doctors, nutritionists, lawyers, accountants who come... they are not blind, they can see that you are going to die."

"Hehe, it seems that the news that my inheritance does not have to be inherited by relatives has been exposed. This is a secret, even my children don't know it, so how did this secret be exposed?"

"Yes, old friend, I'm just reminding you about this." Lian Qingyi brushed up his beard, as if he had figured it out.

"Indeed, I know quite a lot of old friends and new friends. Fortunately, this time I invited everyone who knows the secret to the island." Reynix laughed, "They will make such a huge fortune Shall I tell others what happened to me? It’s hard for me to guarantee it, but I don’t need a guarantee, because they are the only ones who threaten me and betray me. As for the people they know, they don’t even want to touch me. "

click.

Gustav had already locked the door behind his back, his sharp gaze swept across the faces of everyone in the room except Renix.

"Don't worry, Gustav. We have half a month to guess which one, or which old friends want my things." Renix slowly walked back to Anle Next to the chair, he lay down again, "After all, the storm will cover everything, and this place will become a closed world."
