"No way?" Andy widened his eyes in shock.He frequently visited Elly's salon and was well aware of the parking fees at the entrance."Isn't it five dollars per hour, with a daily cap of 20? How could it accumulate to more than 90 dollars? Did you forget to pay the parking fee before?"Elly shook her head. "That's impossible. They issue receipts, and the parking fee is calculated automatically once the receipt is scanned."Let's see how it goes tomorrow. If it still costs that much, I won't park there anymore. I can buy four or five spare ribs and have several hearty meals for 90 dollars!"Eric and Sylvia did not pay much attention to such a problem.-The next morning, as soon as Eric arrived at the company, he received a call from Madison.After breakfast, Eric hurried to the relevant department.Madison brewed some coffee and handed over freshly printed documents to him. "I've gathered data from other cities over the past nine years, and you know what? It's something I've ne

Eric was reviewing relevant documents when his phone suddenly rang.Answering the call, he said, "Hello, who's this?""Is this Mr. Johnson? I'm Sergeant Wilson."Hearing the voice, Eric recognized him. After all, he had dealt with him several times before."Yes, it's me," Eric replied. "Is there anything I can help you with?"Robert said, "Something happened to Mr. Ruske from the Agriculture Department. We found that you had contact with Mr. Ruske in the mornings over the past two days."Eric was taken aback. "Where's Mr. Ruske now?" he asked."Alright, I'll be there right away."After hanging up, Eric quickly changed clothes. "Vee, something happened to Mr. Ruske. I need to head there."Sylvia was also taken aback. Eric had visited Madison twice, and now something had happened to him. She wondered whether it was a coincidence or something more."Stay safe," Sylvia said.She did not have to go with Eric. After all, she had considerable expertise in martial arts, so she could

After speaking, Eric approached the body.Uncovering the white cloth and inspecting Madison's body, he nodded, turned to Robert, and stated, "The blood pressure from the heart is high, especially in the head area where Mr. Ruske fell. The possibility of blood splattering all over the ground is extremely high. But look at the blood on the ground. I suspect he was already dead before jumping.""What?!" Robert was taken aback. "Are you saying that Mr. Ruske was murdered?""Give me a pair of gloves," Eric requested.Putting on the gloves, he wiped a bit of blood and smelled it.Everyone was stunned by his action, not knowing what he was doing."He wasn't poisoned to death," Eric said.As a holistic physician, he was sensitive to the smell of toxins. Besides, only a handful of poisons were lethal in small doses, not to mention that their odors were usually noticeable.While speaking, he removed the upper clothing of the body. Seeing the bruise on the chest near the heart, Eric under

Hearing about potential troubles, Robert was stunned.Still, he quickly regained his composure and said, "Troubles? So what? We still need to handle the case we are assigned, and we have to catch the perpetrator. If we retreat just because it's troublesome and stop investigating, what's the point of wearing this uniform? Whoever commits a crime must face severe punishment! We can't let them go free!"Eric nodded slightly. Having a strong sense of justice was a good thing."Tomorrow, I'll bring in two people to cooperate with your work. Investigate it thoroughly, and once you identify the culprit, don't hesitate to make the arrest," he said."Okay!" Robert nodded in agreement.From the information Eric received, he knew that this case was far from simple. It was impossible for an ordinary person to directly hit someone's heart and cause immediate cardiac arrest. Only a skilled martial artist could achieve such precision.During the night, Eric contacted two grandmasters from the C

Money couldn't fix everything, but it provided security and opportunities.Sylvia chuckled. She had never experienced life without it. She had been showered with love from the Williams since she was young. However, she knew that many people in the world were facing hardships.-After breakfast, Eric and Sylvia visited Winston's place.Spotting Eric, Winston chuckled. "Well, well, being young is truly wonderful, isn't it?"Eric blushed. "Hol. Clarke, let's focus on the complicated medical case you mentioned."It might be a challenging case for Winston, but it was a piece of cake for Eric.-Leaving Winston's, Eric sighed. "I'm afraid I can't go out like this today."Sylvia laughed. "Are you implying it's my fault? I told you to stop, but you're the one who ignored me. Anyway, we still have to go to the office. I have a lot of documents to go through today."Eric felt a bit helpless, knowing Sylvia teased him deliberately.-Soon, they arrived at the Innova Group, and Eric st

Keith lowered his head again when Eric told him to apologize to Roland and Valerie.Irvin was exasperated and smacked Keith's head, thinking he didn't want to apologize to them. "How could you be such a coward?! People always say that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Yet, how did I end up with a son like you?!"Irvin was frustrated. As the heir of one of the most prominent families in Salt City, Keith shouldn't be so timid."It's okay," Eric said. "Keith, we'll go to Dortmund with you tomorrow. It's been a long time since I've seen Mr. Draco. It's about time for me to visit them. You can use the chance to apologize to them as well.""Sure! Sure!" Keith nodded. After all, Eric had joined the underworld before and was quite familiar with people like Tiger and Roland. With him by his side, he felt more at ease.Sylvia could barely hold herself back from laughing. However, she had often dealt with Keith and was accustomed to his behavior.-Early the next morning, Eric, Syl

If Roland really thought that way, then it would be over between Keith and Valerie.Irvin felt the need to say something, quickly adding, "Mr. Draco, Keith absolutely didn't mean that. I have never looked down on you, either. If I really judged people based on this standard, I wouldn't have become sworn brothers with Eric!"He was relieved that he had brought Eric with him.Roland was aware of the sworn brotherhood between Eric and Irvin. He nodded and said, "Mr. Sonnex, you're right. Anyway, let's not dwell on this. I've ordered my chef to cook us some dishes. Let's enjoy ourselves later!"Irvin nodded.After the meal, Roland did not prolong their stay, and his somewhat indifferent attitude clearly indicated that it was time for the guests to leave.Naturally, Irvin understood his intention and took the initiative to depart.Irvin smacked Keith again in the car and warned, "You're lucky that Roland decided to forgive you this time. If there's another time, you'll be on your own

The Sonnexes were known for their wealth and generosity.The priest from Draco Summit arrived promptly. They also needed money for their livelihood and to repair their sanctum. "It's a minor issue. Don't worry too much, Mr. Sonnex," Quintin reassured.Although they typically wouldn't accept such commissions, given the Sonnexes' wealth and Eric's involvement, they made an exception.Irvin respectfully stated, "Father Amorth, please have a seat. We'll send your remuneration shortly!"Quintin waved his hand and handed a card to Irvin. "Mr. Sonnex, this is the account for the Celestial Sage Sanctum. You can transfer the funds directly."Irvin frowned, noticing the Celestial Sage Sanctum's improved handling of their business.Sylvia then asked, "Father Amorth, forgive my curiosity, but how much does a priest like you charge for a commission like this?""Well…" Quintin chuckled. "This isn't a secret, but generally, the amount varies. Sometimes, we don't even charge a penny. Occasion
