Chapter 1226 Who The Old Monk Really Is
Seeing that, Sabrina could only shoot Edmund a glare before helping Sasha search around.
However, what she never expected was to find tons of random things in the room that they assumed
was the old monk’s bedroom.
Those random things included vintage lipsticks, perverted, narcissistic writings in relatively neat
handwriting, and molding clothes in a wooden box.
Those clothes were small, and they seemed like they were meant for children.
However, there was something wrong with the box, for the moment they opened it, a wave of pungent
scent struck them.
“Is he some kind of lunatic? Did he shit in this box? What the f*ck?”
Elegance was generally absent in Sabrina’s dictionary, so she instantly swore before slamming the box
shut.
Sasha, on the other hand, remained silent. She then turned around to another wardrobe, and after a
while of scouring, she found what she wanted.
I await the arrival of the ninth month, at which hour mine flower begins to bloom, and the others
beginneth to wilt. Once its scent fills the land, a grand sight ’twill beest in its golden glory.
It was a famous poem that talked about how the author would thrive when the others died. At that time,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe author would be the only one to shine.
It was a poem about aggression and ambition.
Sasha sneered before looking at the name under the poem—Eddie Limmer.
It’s the same person.
She continued searching through the room. Finally, she found several black and white photos in the
drawer, where one of them was of two people with identical faces sitting together.
Edmund had walked over at one point, and when he saw the photo in her hand, he exclaimed, “Holy
sh*t! They’re twins!”
Twins.
Indeed, Louis and his brother were twins.
However, in the picture, Eddie was not sitting beside his brother. Instead, his brother was carrying him.
He was only around four feet—about the size of a child. Furthermore, it was clear in the photo that
there was something amiss about his legs. Even when he sat on his brother’s lap, his legs were
hanging limply at the sides.
“It looks like this is the reason why,” Sasha said after looking at the photo.
“He must have been born with congenital defects, that’s why he couldn’t help Louis during the
establishment of the new government as well as why his name is missing in historical records.”
“So, he has been staying here under the protection of his brother, right?”
Edmund finally realized what the things they found meant.
Sasha nodded. “That should be what happened. Look at this room and the book we found. From the
things he wrote, we can see that he’s a brilliant man despite his physical disability. Therefore, I think it’s
safe for us to assume that he did help Louis out by strategizing in this place.”
After mulling over the things she had found, she came to realize that that was the most plausible
scenario.
If Louis did not have a strategist, he would not have been able to set up a successful plan like that after
his retirement. He had the Ten Medals and the power to control the White House from the shadows for
decades.
There were not many who could do that.
Edmund fell silent.
On the other hand, after Sabrina heard Sasha’s words, she asked, “I have a question. How did he
recover from his physical disability, then? Doesn’t that old b*stard out there have two functioning legs?”
Both Sasha and Edmund were silent for a moment.
Between the three of them, Sabrina was indeed the best in cursing.
“It’s been decades, and we’ve had many medical advancements since then. It’s not entirely impossible
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmthat his disability couldn’t be fixed. Anyway, let’s not talk about that anymore. There’s something else
we should be prioritizing. If this is where that old man has lived before, he’ll eventually come here now
that we’ve gone missing. Therefore, leaving this place should be our topmost priority,” Sasha pointed
out.
Her words snapped them back to their senses, and they quickly resumed their search for the exit.
Their efforts, however, were to no avail as they could not find anything indicating an exit from the place.
In the meantime, when Sasha returned to the cave again, she spotted a heavy machine gun.
“This is…”
“D*mn! There’s nothing vintage about this machine gun. Look at its model and its caliber. Isn’t this…
Isn’t this an AUK24? Oh my God!”
Edmund’s eyes widened until they looked like they were going to pop out of their sockets as he rushed
toward the machine gun before crouching down.
AUK24?
Sasha knew nothing about guns, nor had she heard about the gun model. However, the look on the
man’s face told her that the gun was certainly not the same as the things behind her.
It was very likely that it was a modern object.
Modern?
Sasha narrowed her eyes. All of a sudden, she spotted a small box on the ground with a meter on it.
