At night, the Cole family’s manor lay shrouded in darkness. Nearby, the windows of the villa next door were blacked out by Rothschild staff, giving the impression that it was uninhabited.

With nightfall, all activity at the manor ceased, and the parked vehicles within its boundaries fell silent. Unbeknownst to outsiders, inside the seemingly tranquil villa, a group of people gathered, including Steve Rothschild and more than forty individuals, including Royce Rothschild.

Among the group of over 40 people, aside from Steve and his son, approximately 30 individuals were tasked with continuously monitoring the Cole family manor’s every move. The remaining 10 people were responsible for the villa’s security.

The Rothschild family placed immense importance on their security, especially when the individuals present included the eldest son and eldest grandson of the current patriarch. Even though they had set up a net around the Cole family, the protection of the family’s core members was unwavering. They couldn’t afford to be complacent about safety.

Steve Rothschild, concerned about his own safety, sought reassurance from Hank regarding the security within the villa.

To alleviate Steve’s worries, Hank proudly explained, “Young Master, the personnel we have here are all top-notch agents equipped with identification friend-or-foe technology. Should the detector detect anyone without the identification equipment, it will immediately relay their location to our snipers.”

“Furthermore, each of us wears personal identification equipment, and the system promptly verifies our identity. If surveillance equipment captures our face, the facial recognition system activates to confirm our identity. If it matches, it’s considered safe. If not, we’ll immediately alert the authorities.”

“In addition, all our personnel outside wear 24-hour recorders that cannot be deactivated. The recorded data is uploaded to the cloud, and the intelligence center handles storage and analysis. When any two

people encounter each other, cross-checking is possible. Whether it’s me or not, your safety here is guaranteed at 100 percent.”

Steve found this information extremely reassuring. It appeared that he merely needed to stay put with his son, awaiting Hank to uncover the clues and locate the Four Treasures of the Study.

Meanwhile, after nightfall, Charlie arranged for Jordan to procure a vehicle and drove quietly to New Jersey, the location of the Cole family estate.

New York and New Jersey, being neighboring states, attracted many middle-class and moderately wealthy New Yorkers seeking a higher quality of life. The distance between them was less than an hour’s drive, a manageable commute for those accustomed to driving.
