Lost and Found: Return of My Mysterious Fiancee

Chapter 615: The Death of Asher Vance



Asher Vance joined RST at the age of seventeen and at nineteen, RST was annihilated by Ian, leading to its split into GTO and CK. By twenty, he was sent by Five Poisons to infiltrate the X Bureau as an undercover agent.

He thought that by helping CK stay hidden and using GTO to distract the X Bureau, he could eventually return to his organization. Unexpectedly, this stay turned into nearly sixty years. He had invested his entire life into it. "You've been undercover in the X Bureau for so many years, what benefits did GTO provide you? I'm curious, as I have never even seen the boss's face. Have you?" Eagle Flies asked. Asher Vance frowned subtly, "You talk too much. When is my ship coming?"

Eagle Flies stepped back, "Sorry, your ship can't come." Asher Vance was stunned and instinctively turned around, only to see a dark gun barrel pointed at him. "Master, you can't escape," Linden said sadly, holding the gun. Asher Vance instinctively stepped back, his head now also backed by the gun barrel.

A familiar voice sounded behind him, "Master, you know I have trouble with my legs." Asher Vance sighed deeply, "Is there still one missing?" As he finished speaking, Natalie stepped out from beside Asher Vance, gun in hand, pointing at the man she once regarded as a father. "Master, long time no see."

Asher Vance looked at Natalie, seeing the face he hadn't seen in years suddenly before him, he truly felt bewildered for a moment. For over ten years, his little disciple had not changed at all. "I remember back then, it was only you and Kahleah, two girls who frustrated a bunch of boys. Those were good times indeed."

Behind Asher Vance, Courtney's cold voice rang out, "My mom couldn't come, so I came to see you instead!" Asher Vance looked around and finally settled his gaze on Natalie, "Natalie, is there anything else you want to ask? Your master will tell you."

Natalie clenched her handgun, her breathing somewhat halted. "Master, when you personally killed Kahleah back then, did you ever consider our master-disciple relationship?" After hearing this, Asher Vance was stunned for a few seconds, then let out a deep, mocking laugh. "Listen well, I have never truly considered any of you as my own. In my eyes, you were just stepping stones for my rise to power!"

Christopher's eyes reddened as he watched Asher Vance's profile. Until Asher Vance showed up here, he still couldn't believe that his own master was a traitor.

Years ago, when he was wounded on the battlefield, it was his master who risked the bombardment to carry him to safety. Throughout his years in the X Bureau, Asher Vance was present at every significant moment of his life. After Natalie faked her death, Christopher was the first to find Asher Vance and shared his suspicions of an undercover presence within the X Bureau. He never imagined that the undercover agent would be him! No wonder he had made no progress over the years, even being stuck as the deputy director of the Ashbury headquarters. He had suspected everyone, except him!

Linden looked at Asher Vance in disbelief. Orphaned early, he had few friends and often kept to himself, his environment shaping him into a rather cold character, even willing to harm those around him to achieve his goals. Asher Vance was the first person who had ever shown him care. After the "Destruction Plan" failed, he had doubted Asher Vance, but investigations revealed it was just his own baseless suspicions.

Until now, Natalie harbored a sense of guilt towards Asher Vance. Little did she know that this guilt would be exploited by him over the years! The sea breeze blew through their clothes, but Natalie felt no chill.

No one knew how important Asher Vance was to her heart. To Mr. Pace, Natalie showed respect. To Tam Solomon, she was a friend despite the age difference. But to Asher Vance, she sincerely regarded him as a father. Initially, when Natalie was drugged by the Whittaker family and left in a stranger's bed, it was Asher Vance who helped her emerge from that shadow, giving her the strength of a father, enabling her to be reborn. Now, to hear him speak such words...

Asher Vance knew he could not escape and chose not to resist any further. He simply sat down on the ground and glanced at his watch.

"You brought me here to see the Five Poisons, didn't you? I'm sorry to disappoint you, but even if you turn this young lady against me, she knows nothing of the true whereabouts of the Five Poisons."

Natalie looked at Asher Vance and smiled. "Master, you taught us to surprise our enemies."

Asher Vance frowned slightly, then heard Linden say, "The photo I sent you contained a tracking virus. As soon as you opened it, your phone was infected. From then on, any communication device near your phone was tracked to Natalie's computer, whether calls or codes."

Asher Vance laughed out loud, "You really are my good disciples. Christopher, what role did you play in this game?" Christopher stared at Asher Vance and said, "The White family's detector, which we implanted with an invisible tracker. Nathan has already led teams to dismantle GTO strongholds in various cities. You have nowhere to run."

Hey there! Just a friendly reminder that if you're not reading this book on nel5s.org, you might be missing out on the complete story. Head over there to dive into the next chapter-it's all free! Asher Vance scratched his head, "I wondered why the detector took so long to get approved, and then suddenly it was all set up, waiting for me. We were too hasty."

"Master, there's no need to stall for time here; no one is coming to save you," Natalie said firmly, holding a gun. "The time bomb on your waist has already been disabled."

Asher Vance gasped and quickly pressed a button on his ring, the switch of the time bomb. Originally, he wanted to take his three good disciples with him from this world. It seems he miscalculated again.

Asher Vance got up from the ground, removed the ineffective bomb from his waist, and threw it on the ground. "Natalie, the GTO is not as simple as you think. You think tracking me down or capturing the Five Poisons ends this? Let's make a deal. You let me go, and I'll tell you..."

Asher Vance's gaze suddenly froze, and blood began to flow from all his orifices. He turned his head mechanically, but his eyes focused on nothing in particular. Then, he collapsed heavily!

Natalie and the others rushed forward to check on him. Asher Vance was dead. He had not died from poisoning but had all his meridians destroyed in an instant.

"Eagle Flies!" Courtney shouted. Eagle Flies was also kneeling on one knee, black blood flowing from his orifices, just like Asher Vance. Natalie quickly checked all of Eagle Flies' meridians and sealed them. Eagle Flies was young, and Natalie knew some medical techniques. Although the situation was critical, it was not life-threatening. Natalie urgently commanded Courtney to take him to the hospital.
