My Waste Husband

Chapter 272

Lying in bed, Sylvia's mind was in a mess.

Yesterday, at this time, she could pretend to be asleep and not know anything, but now.

Sylvia's heart was pounding wildly, waiting quietly for the moment when the man lifted the quilt.

One second, two seconds...

One minute, two minutes...

Five minutes had passed, but there was still no movement outside the quilt.

Sylvia quietly lifted the corner of the quilt like a little white rabbit. She looked at the outside of the quilt with her beautiful eyes, only to find that Henry was standing in front of the French window and quietly looking out of the window.

Realizing Sylvia's gaze, Henry turned around and smiled at Sylvia. "Honey, go to bed. I'll go out."

"Ah?" Sylvia was shocked. "Where are you going?"

"To figure out something." Henry walked to the bedside and thoughtfully helped Sylvia to tidy up the four corners of the quilt. "My godfather is in trouble. I can't sit by and do nothing, can I?"

Henry smiled at Sylvia, full of love. "Have a good rest. We still have a lot of places to go tomorrow." Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Come back early." Sylvia poked her head out of the quilt. "I... I'll wait for you..."

Henry affectionately scratched Sylvia's nose, opened the guest bedroom door and went out.

Henry went down the residential building, walked out of the corridor, and waved his hand to the darkness.

Three figures appeared in front of Henry in a row. Without saying a word, they all knelt down on one knee in front of him.

"Check the people in the Saint Bar and tell me about them before dawn."

After Henry finished his words, he waved his hand and the three figures left quietly, as if they had never appeared before.

Henry looked at the dark sky and walked away.

Outside the community where Chris lived, there was a large office building. This office place could be rented, and there were many companies on each floor.

At this time, the whole office building was dark. There was only a corner with the dim yellow lights still on.

The door of the office building was tightly locked, and there were security guards guarding it. In front of Henry, it was nothing. He came to the office building and found the office with the lights on.

The words "agency" were written on the door of the office.

Henry pushed the door open and walked in.

The whole office looked strange and gloomy. The yellow light gave people a strange feeling of a quiet atmosphere.

Two wind chimes were hung on the door of the office. When the door was pushed open, there was a slight sound.

The light was flickering between bright and dim.

"It's so late. Who is it?" An old voice sounded in the office.

This kind of eerie environment did not affect Henry at all. He took out a black card and threw it to the ground in front of him. "Tell me about the project of Yongfeng recently."

The dim light hit the black card, and the mask with tusks seemed to jump out of the card.

A thin figure appeared. He bent down, stretched out his skinny hands, picked up the card on the ground, and wiped it carefully with his hands. He sighed and said, "Sure enough. Please sit down."

A seat slipped to the front of Henry.

When Henry sat down, the old voice sounded again.

"Three months ago, The Conqueror of Radiant Island went to Europe to fight to the death with The King Region. The result of that battle has not been clear yet. The Conqueror disappeared out of thin air. No one has heard any news about him. There is a rumour that he is dead, and some people say that he is seriously injured. After that, the status of Radiant Island has declined in the whole underground world. The rumours about Fire Crystals are also flying all over the sky."

"It was also three months ago when, Josh Yang, chairman of Yongfeng Industry in Hangshi, proposed a research project of turning water into energy and attracted the attention of all parties. Many underground forces speculated that this matter had something to do with Fire Crystals. In the past three months, countless forces appeared in Hangshi. Under the pressure of the Reapers, 90% of the forces dared not act rashly. The remaining 10% of them were nonentities."

"Three months have passed. This is the first time that people from Radiant Island have come here. According to the information we have, the water energy technology mentioned by Yongfeng Industry has nothing to do with Fire Crystals. All the information collected in the past three months is here. Please have a look."

A whole pile of information was placed in front of Henry.

If Chris was here and saw these materials, he would definitely be extremely shocked. In this thick pile of materials, they not only had a lot of research achievements, technical cores, but even every research record of them was clearly written!

Henry picked up the information and read it slowly.

It took two hours for Henry to finish reading all these documents, and he did not miss any of them.

Many people knew how powerful The Conqueror was, but they didn't know why he was so powerful.

Henry's efforts were tens of thousands of times that of many people. If it was someone else, very few people would patiently read the information, but Henry Zhang would. Moreover, it was not the first time for him to do such a thing.

For more than two hours, the graceful figure did not make any sound, and even the sound of breathing was much lower.

After Henry finished reading all the information, he got up and ordered, "Give a call to a top team in the field of scientific research. I will come back at noon tomorrow."

"Understood," the old voice replied.

Henry walked to the door of the office. When he opened the door, the wind chimes rang again.

Henry stopped, looked back at the old figure and asked, "How old are you?"

"Eighty-three."

"Bring your successor here tomorrow." Henry took out a coin and flicked it with his finger.

The coin fell in a beautiful arc in front of the graceful figure.

As soon as he saw the coin clearly, the figure of the graceful figure involuntarily trembled.

"After finishing this tomorrow, you should go to the island. Radiant Island will not let down anyone who has paid for it. What you want is on the island." After saying that, Henry walked out of the door without waiting for the other party's answer.

When Henry left, the slim figure knelt on one knee and said, "Thank you so much, Your Excellency."

Leaving the office, Henry's mind was still processing the information he saw just now. He thought about it, took out his mobile phone, and made a phone call.

"Future, what are you doing?"

"Wow, boss, you called me on your own initiative!" On the phone came a playful voice from Future.

Henry smiled and said, "Sounds like I never called you."

"Tsk." Future curled her lips and said, "Boss, do you want me to do something?"

"Come to Hangshi tomorrow." Henry said his purpose directly.

"Hey, I knew it. If there was nothing to do, Boss would never contact me. I'll be there tomorrow."
