The ti was narrowed down to the ti period when Cecilia Branford could have possibly appeared.
With the precise ti established, it beca easier to find out which Big Shot had appeared on Bali Island during that ti.
During their first investigation, the hotel surveillance system malfunctioned, making it impossible to access any footage.
This led to them being misled by false clues, and by following this false trail, they ended up investigating the wrong person.
It was unclear whether the other party had been careless or was confident they wouldn’t be traced.
Consequently, this ti, the attendants’ investigation led them to Thomas Shannon.
A stack of docunts was respectfully handed over.
Lucifer, dressed in a black silk robe, raised his hand, accepted the docunts, and pressed the button for the automatic curtains.
The curtains gradually parted, leaving only a thin layer of white gauze curtain.
The spacious bedroom imdiately brightened.
Lucifer sat up, docunts in hand, and began to carefully read through them.
Thomas Shannon...
A photo of Thomas Shannon was attached to the docunts.
The man seated at the negotiation table was strikingly handso, his features sharp and well-defined, his expression stern. His cold eyes seed to pierce through to one’s very soul.
Even when negotiating with the leader of a country, his presence was overwhelmingly powerful, showing no sign of weakness.
"Thomas Shannon," Lucifer murmured, his interest piqued as he continued to read.
Thomas Shannon had been to Bali Island during that ti.
However, he had only stayed for one day before departing.
Although he himself had left, several of his bodyguards remained on Bali Island.
Why they remained was a blank in the investigation; it couldn’t be determined.
It was these blanks that aroused suspicion.
Thus, the primary focus of the investigation shifted to Thomas Shannon, who was far away in Country A.
Going back in ti, through a ticulous and exhaustive investigation, they discovered that Thomas Shannon had once brought a disfigured woman back to Shannons’ Manor.
Thomas Shannon took extrely stringent asures to protect that woman. On the rare occasions she was brought to public venues, he had her wear a mask.
Furthermore, no one was permitted to take photos of her.
Many people had seen that woman, yet not a single person dared to secretly take her photo.
To oppose Thomas Shannon was to make an enemy of the Grim Reaper himself.
There were no photos to confirm the woman’s appearance. However, those who had seen her claid that despite wearing half of a glamorous ruby mask, her beauty was heavenly amazing!
Half a mask... Heavenly amazing beauty...
Seizing upon these two crucial pieces of information, the attendants beca even more convinced that the woman Thomas Shannon had brought back to the manor was very likely the Miss Cecilia Branford they were searching for.
At the very least, the photo hanging in the Bali Island bar depicted Miss Cecilia Branford wearing a mask.
From this, they could be certain: Miss Cecilia Branford was with Thomas Shannon.
Lucifer set down the docunts and closed his eyes. "Where is Thomas Shannon now?"
"Master, Thomas Shannon’s movents are extrely covert, so... we haven’t pinpointed his exact location yet. However, we have already set up a hidden watch post outside Shannons’ Manor in Country A. As soon as Thomas Shannon returns to the manor, we will receive a ssage imdiately."
Lucifer’s mind reeled. If the person with Thomas Shannon was indeed Cecilia Branford, then... who was the person lying in the Onassis Old Castle dical room?
