Chapter 2330 List (Part Twelve)
It doesn't even seem like a simple expression of respect.

In the midst of the bustling night, the level of abstraction regarding lag behavior has reached a new high.

The old man's actions were so absorbed that even bystanders were momentarily filled with admiration.

He knelt on one knee, but the probability of him proposing is probably not that high.

On the one hand, he didn't have a ring, and on the other hand, it was still easy for him to determine that the skeleton was also male.

A male corpse buried deep underground many years ago has haunted Katon for so long that he made a special trip to dig it out and kneel down to pay his respects on his deathbed.

The entanglements of grudges and conflicts within the story are truly thought-provoking.

Even for those who came before, it wasn't entirely without clues—

First, the clothes on the skeleton can still be seen in some detail.

Against a dark red background, delicate embroidery patterns are faintly visible.

The overall shape is somewhat abstract, like two symmetrical arcs—teeth marks.

Indeed, as someone who had viewed abstract paintings many times, Fu Qian quickly gained some insights from them.

Those were teeth marks embroidered on the clothes with black silk thread, covering every part.

Combined with the bones inside, it gives one the illusion that the victim was indeed gnawed into this state.

In short, this style feels too avant-garde to wear out in this place.

Together with the prayer in the warehouse that Karton just mentioned, it's almost safe to assume that the deceased belonged to one of those strange characters.

Secondly, the person was most likely killed by Kardon back then and then buried here.

After all, they were so persistent in their pursuit of it, and they found it with such precision.

Finally, Kardon was no ordinary person back then, otherwise he couldn't have accomplished such a feat.

After all, besides superhuman physical strength and composure, you also need to undertake such a large-scale project in an unfamiliar place without being noticed—just like now.

Not all of them were drunk husbands. How could the people around not have reacted to the commotion just now?

The reason for the silence is simple: how could a mortal possibly stand up against a mid-level transcendent?

It seems that Katon's ability involves some special mental influence, forcibly putting everyone into a deep sleep.

It's a pity that since the burial scrolls couldn't be brought in, I couldn't take the initiative to examine them.

However, there is reason to believe that Carton used a similar method to bury the body so deep that it remained unknown for many years.

Of course, he doesn't seem to care about that now—knock knock!
During the commentary, Mr. Kardon had already returned.

This time, however, he didn't open the door and get in; he just tapped on the car window expressionlessly.

"what do you think?"

After paying, Carton looked down at him and asked the same question he had asked when leaving the hotel.

……

"good."

The old man's face was expressionless, showing no trace of the melancholy that comes with fulfilling a long-cherished wish.

Fu Qian nodded while his gaze fell on the other person's empty hands.

"What's good about it?"

Katon, however, was quite persistent and immediately continued asking questions.

"It's as if you've unearthed your past, some kind of time capsule or something."

Honest people are invincible. Before giving his answer, he provided a detailed explanation without hesitation, and even glanced at the spot where the other person had just been working.

There are many kinds of time capsules, and this one should be included in the broader concept, right?

Furthermore, there's absolutely no need to worry about this action causing any disturbance. For ordinary people, it's almost impossible to see clearly what's on the other side in such darkness, and the limitations of their perception come into play.

If the old man firmly believes you're just an ordinary person, even if you explicitly state that you saw human bones being unearthed, he'll only steer the narrative towards conspiracy theories, such as you having prior knowledge of the events or being avenger from the past. Unless he just tried to hypnotize you as well.

Unfortunately, he, the specially invited driver, seemed to have a special significance for him.

Throughout, Katon seemed to want to remain conscious as a witness.

Although they seem unwilling to know too much about the specifics, the overall feeling is somewhat conflicted.

"Hehe... Time capsule, that's a good idea."

"That's absolutely right. When you get to my age, you'll realize that anything can be a time capsule."

This time, Carton seemed to find the witness's comments quite amusing, so much so that he laughed out loud.

And as expected, he didn't bring up the bone matter.

"Thank you for sharing your insights on life."

He was very supportive beforehand, and thanked her in a very serious manner.

"But I'd like to give you a friendly reminder: there's really not much oil left."

……

One sentence brought the old man back to reality, and before paying, he specifically pointed to the fuel gauge and told him to check it.

"You are a really interesting person, and I regret choosing you more and more."

Kardon's gaze naturally followed, and faced with the situation where the numbers could no longer be read, he clearly found it difficult to refute.

He didn't seem to intend to refute, and his gaze quickly returned to Fu Qian's face, only sincerely praising the latter's uniqueness.

click!
They might even open the door the next moment.

"Don't worry, everything on the list has been completed."

Oh?
"Is this done?"

Such rapid progress naturally aroused Fu Qian's curiosity.

"Yes, don't you think that's enough? That's a bit strange. Aren't you in a hurry to get the rest of the payment?"

Kardon, on the other hand, seemed more curious.

No, I am quite easygoing. It is someone else who feels it is not enough.

At that moment, Fu Qian sighed deeply.

If you had actually completed the list, we would have already vanished in a flash of light.

This trip will also allow him to run for the easiest task of his career.

Unfortunately, it's obvious that what Kadun said doesn't match the judgment criteria used by the warehouse.

"You seem genuinely still wanting more..."

Although he didn't say anything before giving his money, the old man clearly received a certain message.

His brows furrowed even more, and his gaze seemed to sharpen slightly, as if he wanted to see the driver clearly.

"Indeed, the smoothness of this operation has exceeded my expectations, and your cooperation was crucial... How about this, would you be interested in helping me complete the additional content?"

Before Fu Qian could say anything, Katon nodded with great interest, as if he had made up his mind.

"can."

They agreed to the payment readily beforehand, without even discussing the payment.

"That's great... Let's get off."

Katon seemed quite pleased, as if unaware of this selflessness, and simply looked ahead, giving the specific details directly.

"Next, forcibly taking something without consent."
