The Miraculous Simone Gray novel Chapter 435

After ending the call, Simone considered staying at the hospital. She also asked Joseph to come over in the afternoon. As the deputy minister of a special department, Joseph must have encountered high-ranking members and influential masters of the geomancy association. Simone intended to seek Joseph's assistance in identifying someone.

Installing surveillance cameras in the hospital room would undoubtedly be discovered. However, the cameras in the corridor could be used. While Joseph attended to some matters, Simone accessed the surveillance camera outside Elbert's room through her computer.

In the afternoon, Joseph returned to the hospital after one o'clock. Around two o'clock, Simone observed several individuals appearing on the surveillance camera displayed on her computer screen. Salma was accompanying a frail elderly man, followed by three geomancy masters. Simone paused the video and asked Joseph, "Deputy Minister Presgrave, do you recognize the old man in the video?

Joseph leaned over for a look, appearing surprised as he replied, "I do. He is Master Lewis Longhand, the president of the geomancy association."

Simone was taken aback and exclaimed, "He is the president of the geomancy association?"

Joseph nodded and confirmed, "Yes, I am certain." Given their special department's frequent collaboration with the geomancy association, Joseph had encountered the president on several occasions.

Simone pondered for a moment and asked, "Has he changed in any way since his seclusion?"

Joseph leaned in and carefully observed, "He appears much thinner, and his hair has turned even whiter. He looks considerably older."

The changes in the other party were quite evident, catching his attention immediately.

Simone gazed at the video screen, lost in thought. According to Joseph's account, Mr. Lewis seemed to be in a similar state as someone who had suffered a backlash.

Joseph noticed Simone's profound expression and couldn't help but inquire, "Simone, could there be something wrong with him?"

Simone contemplated for a moment and replied, "It is not certain yet. I will have to personally interact with him to find out. However, I have a strong feeling that he is highly likely to be the person behind the scenes we're searching for."

Joseph's expression changed slightly, "If it is indeed him, then it is truly troublesome."

After all, the individual in question was the president of the geomancy association, holding a prominent position and reputation in the mystical arts world. His strength belonged to the top tier.

Simone looked at Joseph and asked with a smile, "If it truly is him, what will you do? Will you take action?" She wanted to gauge the stance of the high-ranking members of the special department.

Joseph responded without hesitation. "Of course, we will take action. No matter who it is, as long as they have committed a crime, they must face legal consequences."

If they were to base their decision on background and strength alone, then what would be the purpose of the special department?

Simone half-jokingly remarked, "He is very powerful. Aren't you afraid of causing trouble?"

Joseph truthfully replied, "No matter how formidable he may be, can he withstand firearms? Even if ordinary weapons would be ineffective against him, if necessary, we can apply for and utilize highly lethal special weapons."

This was also the most effective means of suppressing powerful warlocks. Otherwise, the other party could easily cause trouble using geomancy mystical arts at any given moment. Since most members of their special department were not geomancy masters, how would they handle such situations? Naturally, they relied on high-tech methods and weapons.

However, the use of those special weapons was only permitted in special emergencies.

Joseph's words aligned with Simone's speculation. Indeed, it was an effective approach to suppress practitioners of geomancy and mystical arts.
