Generally speaking, like the scar-faced group barely surviving in a bullet storm, most die from severe injuries within a day or two.

But this time is different, Charlie (sister) is willing to save them at any cost, and the top medical team and technology of the Federation quickly showed its value.

With millions in medical costs, all four actually survived, it’s simply a medical miracle!

Distributed among them, there’s at least two to three hundred thousand per person, not including the ongoing maintenance costs.

This fully illustrates the value of money with facts. Some say money can’t buy life, but maybe at this moment scar-faced and others, along with Charlie (sister), can look at them with mocking smiles.

Without saying anything, just looking is enough to make them embarrassed.

Yes, money can buy life.

Only when people face this day do they realize that money may not change the irreversible process of biological aging and death, but it can extend life beyond normal circumstances to the greatest extent possible.

Money can also buy love, look at those young girls and boys around wealthy people, why do you think they fall in love with someone older?

Because of money?

No, it’s because of love, simple love!

True love!

Money isn’t omnipotent, but it almost seems so.

This "attack" appears to have ended with these attackers’ deaths and captures.

Actually, quite the opposite, the Federation began pursuing the mastermind behind this attack, causing tension among the diplomats of twenty-four countries attending the talks.

Just within these two days, another country expressed willingness to join the World Development Committee, contributing to the development and peace process of the world.

"We will absolutely not abandon the idea of tracing the source just because the executors are captured and killed. We aim to trace the origins and seek more accountability!"

"Gentlemen, negotiation is the correct path, terrorism is not. We will absolutely not let any individual or force that attempts to use terrorism to achieve their goals go unpunished."

"I also hope that none among us here are such individuals!"

Truman’s words carried implicit threats, strong and aggressive, yet those seated at the table, including Gafura’s diplomat, all remained silent at this moment.

From one perspective, Truman’s statements are absolutely reasonable. If there are any demands, any thoughts, they can be discussed.

However, creating panic when talks don’t go well is clearly inappropriate.

Someone glanced at Gafura’s diplomat, who angrily glared back.

My God, he is a diplomat of Gafura, he himself doesn’t believe this is something the nobles would do.

They wouldn’t do such things; it’s too easy to lose control.

Watching the exchange in others’ eyes, Truman knew the pressure was enough, then continued with the unresolved topics.

Perhaps truly sensing the Federals’ attitude, some persistent minor issues began to loosen and give way.

They realized that if they got tied to this terrorist attack now, they might face big trouble.

From the Federation’s attitude towards this incident, they could sense that the Federation is really angry.

It could be fake too, but they have to take it seriously.

The pace of the talks slightly accelerated, while simultaneously, Charlie (sister) was relaxing, having signed a few contracts and paid in full, then taken away by Federation officials.

She wasn’t too nervous; Lynch had already talked to her. She just needed to provide information the Federals were interested in, alongside some details on other criminals.

And she would receive a federal presidential pardon, absolving her past crimes.

Of course, this doesn’t mean she bears no responsibility; she also needs to pay no less than twenty million in compensation to comfort some victims’ families.

Moreover, once she accepts the pardon, she can never leave the Federation for the rest of her life.

Three days have passed since the incident, now a luxury cruise ship slowly docked.

Mr. Wycliffe disembarked with his team.

Although he lost quite a bit of money in this Silver incident, he still maintained the necessary style.

People are very realistic and superficial, this is a lesson Mr. Wycliffe has summed up over his life.

They won’t really investigate how much money you have left, they only observe superficial details, like your attire, your vehicle, and your attitude towards spending.

As long as you can uphold the appearance in these occasions, congratulations, no one will underestimate you.

The luxury cruise and the entire team are proof; he continuously sends signals to the outside world that nothing has changed, and he has ways to recover his lost money.

This makes the investors behind him restrain their impulse to tear him apart and quietly wait.

If they can really get all the money back, then they remain elegant gentlemen. But if they can’t, they will turn into beasts.

On the way here, Mr. Wycliffe heard that something had happened in the Federation, but he didn’t think much of it.

Even if he wanted to, he couldn’t help it; his body needs the advanced medical technology of the Federation for assistance.

Meanwhile, he is quietly transferring his funds to the Federation.

In case he can’t get the money back, he still has to live, doesn’t he?

There’s no reason for an old man like him to bear all the losses from the investment; he was just a promoter, he is also a victim.

As soon as he set foot on the Federation’s land, a peculiar emotion seemed to explode within him, a certain will from the land slowly poured into his body.

He has been to the Federation before, not very fond of this lazy, timid, cowardly, and greedy country.

At least it was like that before.

The weak Federation Government, and the greedy capitalists.

But now he has begun to like it here, with its powerful military strength, more open than Gafura, making it very suitable for the wealthy to retire.

Those who wish to tear him apart also have to consider that this is the Federation, where there is order.

Mr. Wycliffe, temporarily settling in the Federation, returned to the house he bought for investment purposes, and immediately had his team gather recent news, quickly realizing that coming to the Federation seemed... somewhat hasty.

"Scarface may not disclose our information; in this business, he’s very tight-lipped," the butler attempted to reassure Mr. Wycliffe, but with little effect.

Mr. Wycliffe had already learned of the assault case that happened a few days ago, and discovered some truths from the issues reported by the media.

Scarface and his men did not sacrifice themselves to kidnap Charlie (sister) because of his orders, not at all.

They are not that responsible, mercenaries, hunters, call them whatever, their purpose is always money, never responsibility.

Their vigorous assault and kidnapping of Charlie (sister) was primarily aimed at cracking Charlie (sister)’s secrets.

Now, in the international community, there are rumors that most investors suffered heavy losses in the trillion-dollar silver case, but not everyone.

The Charlie siblings had quietly begun selling off their holdings, and these transactions are traceable; they sold all their silver when it was around sixteen or seventeen dollars, making profits in the billions!

This money was quickly transferred away by them, and only the two of them know where it is now.

Besides them, the owners of major silver mines also profited; spot transactions, in a sense, are faster and more timely than futures.

Those silver pieces are stored in warehouses at major international trade ports, available for purchase by anyone, anytime, as long as they have the money.

Whether it’s five in the morning or three at night, as long as there’s demand, a contract and a call can change ownership.

In the initial stage of the silver collapse, these silver mine owners leveraged some information asymmetry, actively lowering prices to sell, which actually propelled the quick avalanche of silver prices.

Aside from these people, most financial investors suffered losses.

Authoritative statistics show that in the silver collapse, over eighty billion Federation Sol were completely wiped out!

The most severely hit were the Silver Alliance and some international investors.

Reflecting on the entire process where silver climbed from two or three dollars to nearly twenty, the real winners were the Charlie siblings, and now the whole world is looking for them.

Charlie (brother) is in Mr. Wycliffe’s control, and from the moment things became irreversible, he personally led a team to the Charlie siblings’ den.

Only one was captured; a delay would have let Charlie (brother) slip away too.

And Charlie (brother) is the reason why the investors behind him still have patience, believing he can recover the losses.

Few know the key to unlocking the ultimate treasure requires both Charlie (brother) and Charlie (sister), leading Scarface’s group to mistakenly think grabbing Charlie (sister) means getting the money.

This made Mr. Wycliffe very angry and helpless, "I don’t trust them..."

The butler shut his mouth after hearing this.

The situation is very bad now, but not without opportunity, and the opportunity is in his hands.

The ultimate goal of any bank worldwide is to have customers forget their money with them, then legally use or even possess it according to various laws.

Take the six major banks of the Federation, for instance; their attitude towards anonymous accounts is that everything is based on evidence.

Without evidence, even the account owners can only deposit, not withdraw.

All banks worldwide operate this way, and now the key to unlocking the treasure, the pendant, is in his hand.

If Charlie (sister) wants to withdraw the money, she must collaborate with Mr. Wycliffe.

He doesn’t ask for much, just to get the principal, and the interest; at least he can give an account of this matter!
