Chapter 1925
Edmund's men had sent Edmund and Matthew the nursing home's details while they were on their way
there, and Matthew had gone through it. The nursing home wasn't exactly big as only a few dozen
elderly stayed there. It was situated in a remote place where barely anyone came, so it was a good
spot to live out the golden years.
Matthew told Edmund to stop about five hundred yards away from the nursing home. "That's far
enough. If they see your headlamps, it's going to alarm someone. I'll be scouting the place out. If I don't
text you in ten minutes, call Tyson and the gang for assistance," whispered Matthew.
Edmund stared at the nursing home and whispered back, "You think Voodoo's in there, Matt? I can call
Tyson and the gang right now if you'd like. That sly old fox is one tough opponent. If you run into him
alone, that might be trouble."
Matthew waved him down. "That sly old fox is more paranoid and cautious than you think. If this was
his hiding spot, he'd have rigged the whole place with contingencies. I bet my last dollar his wretches Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
are keeping an eye out on the Ten Greatest Families of Stonedale. If they make any move, they're
going to tell him, and he's going to escape once again."
Edmund scratched his head. "But we did make a move. My men are still back in that neighborhood. If
his men are keeping an eye on us, he should've known about our operation. He has probably escaped
by now."
Matthew shook his head. "That's different. He had a bait there, and almost everyone fell for it. Yeah,
you and your men came to help, but he has no reason to suspect us being here. He thinks our attention
is still on that fake Voodoo, so it doesn't matter even if you and your men showed up. However, if the
other families were to make another move right now, he'll know we saw through the fake Voodoo. It'll
alert him and he'll try to escape again."
Matthew's words sank in, and Edmund nodded. "Good point, Matt. Really good point."
Matt whispered, "I need to confirm that the real Voodoo is here before I can call in reinforcements. Or
rather, you will call in reinforcements. Even if my guess is wrong, there's no harm done."
Matthew nodded. "Be careful out there, Matt."
Matthew nodded and got out of the car. Like a black panther, he prowled closer to the nursing home. A
few moments later, he was already a few yards away from the premise.
