The other villagers quickly piped up, “Let me do it. You only need to give me eight hundred!”

“Five hundred!”

“D*mn it! A hundred. I'll do it for a hundred!”

Since the two graves were likely empty graves, the villagers were no longer worried about the consequences of digging them. Hence, they fought against each other for the task.

However, Lev grinned and said, “Stop f*cking fighting. I won't even give ten, let alone a hundred. I've been unlucky my whole life, but I've finally had a change in luck. Do you really think that I'll let you take the opportunity instead? Keep dreaming.”

Lev then spat on his hand before digging the graves.

The villagers watched him work with resentment and envy on their faces.

They did not care why the graves were empty at all.

All they cared about was money.

Not long after, Lev was done digging up the two coffins. Unsurprisingly, the coffins were empty, and the elderly couple's bodies were gone.

That helped affirm Zeke's guesses.

Since Yannick and Yoshua were still alive, Zeke could continue investigating the lead.

Nevertheless, the question of how he should find Yannick and Yoshua in this big world remained.

It was impossible for surveillance cameras to exist in the remote village.

With that thought in mind, Zeke looked at the elderly village chief as his head pounded. “Sir, do Yannick and Yoshua not have any other relatives here?”






























The elderly village chief shook his head, but he soon stated, “I just remembered something. Yannick has been engaged to my daughter since they were young. Yannick even mentioned this when he came back, and of course, I agreed to it. Would my daughter be considered his family?”

Zeke asked, “Oh. Which is your daughter?”

The elderly village chief turned to the crowd and said, “Come on out, Sherry.”

A girl stepped out of the crowd.

She was tall, and she had a pretty face. Although her clothes were a little old-fashioned, her good looks still salvaged her overall appearance.

Yannick must like her face. Otherwise, he wouldn't have mentioned his engagement to the old village chief. I wonder if Yannick will come back to bring Sherry away.

Thus, Sherry became the only lead Zeke had.

Zeke then said to the old village chief, “All right. I won't disturb you any longer, so go back to split up the money among yourselves.”

“Okay, thank you, Mr. Williams.”

Finally, everything was done, and the old village chief swiftly ran back home.
