Salute To The General
Chapter 3432 Gains

With Nathan by his side, Baccio stormed into Villa Number Seven with his men.

However, the place was completely empty.

Baccio looked a bit upset. He had a hunch that Hepburn must have already left.

While his subordinates were busy searching the villa, he quietly made his way to the dining room. When no one was looking, he discreetly opened the refrigerator. Lyanna and Hepburn left in a hurry and left several blood packs inside the fridge.

Baccio glanced at the blood pack, then promptly closed the refrigerator. He returned to the living room and sat down on the couch, lost in thought.

At that moment, Nathan, accompanied by Colin, entered the courtyard.

Nathan asked, "Mr. Baccio, have you found Ms. Hepburn?"

Before Baccio could speak, the bishops and Holy Knights, who had been searching the house, were already returning one after another.

Everyone shook their heads at Baccio, indicating that they hadn't found Hepburn.

Baccio stood up and said to Nathan, "I'm sorry. Perhaps my information was incorrect."

Nathan nodded. "Yes. I can understand how you all feel."

Nathan and Baccio, each leading their men, left the villa and drove off in their own cars.

Baccio's brows remained knitted as he sat inside the car.

A bishop standing nearby couldn't help but complain, "Why does this Mr. Cross always seem at odds with us?"

Baccio replied, "It's no wonder he can't get along with us. The Curia's Shadow Guard was the first to provoke him. However, I never would have imagined that he would order his men to kill Eddie and his two subordinates just to save the lives of a few ordinary people."

Upon hearing that, the bishop immediately said, "The three Eurasian warmongers who killed Eddie and his party were clearly elites in the army. How could they have arrived so quickly? Why do I feel like they had prepared in advance?"

Baccio responded, "There's only one

explanation. Perhaps from the

moment we arrived in Eurasia,

Nathan had us under survelet

It's precisely for this reason that after Eddie and his group committed murder, they were discovered quickly, identified swiftly, and even had military elites dispatched to intercept and kill them."

The bishop was both shocked and angry. "We are here to investigate the disappearance of the Holy Maiden. If Nathan isn't going to help, that's fine. But why must he make things difficult for us at every turn?"

Baccio slowly said, "It's very likely that the disappearance of the Holy Maiden is directly related to him. I just checked the refrigerator in the villa's dining room. There are a few blood packs inside. Our information was correct. Hepburn and the other vampires had definitely lived there. The bishop sighed. "It's a pity they slipped away amid the chaos. All our efforts were in vain, and we even lost the Top Three Shadow Guards."

But Baccio slowly said, "It's not necessary that all our hustles are in vain."

Taken aback, the bishop asked in surprise and delight, "Elder Baccio, have you made a discovery?"

Baccio uttered nonchalantly, "We

l.ne

were already suspecting that Hepburn's disappearance might be because she has become a vampire, and if this matter is related to Nathan? Today, we were on the verge of replaceing Hepburn, but unexpectedly, Nathan interfered and caused Hepburn to escape. Even though we didn't replace Hepburn, Nathan's presence here already

spoke volumes."

The bishop's facial expression underwent constant changes. Then, he exclaimed in disbelief, "Elder Baccio, are you implying that the rumors could indeed be true, that Nathan could be a vampire, and he might be the one who turned Hepburn into a vampire? Is that why he's been obstructing us at every turn from replaceing Hepburn?"

Baccio lowered his voice. "This is my speculation. Although there's no concrete evidence, I believe I'm not wrong. Until there's evidence for this matter, it's not appropriate to spread rumors."

The bishop asked, "Yes, so what do we do now?"

Baccio replied, "Let's go back to the Curia! We'll report this matter to Pope Eugene and let him make the decision."
