The Lost Tomb : The Southern Archives Mysteries

Chapter 54: Case Closed

When Zhang Qishan returned, the Flower Reef case was closed.

Mo Yungao was on the verge of death when he met an extraordinary person. This person didn't seem ordinary and even used his own blood to save Mo Yungao.

Afterwards, Mo Yungao set up his headquarters in Beihai and life went on. The years passed by, but he still couldn't forget about that extraordinary man.

At that time, he asked the extraordinary man if his remarkable abilities were congenital or acquired. When the young man told him they were acquired, Mo Yungao felt that it was unfair. After he gained power, he had obtained many things that he was afraid of losing. As a result, he hoped to meet that extraordinary man again and ask how he had acquired those abilities. It was for this reason that he spread the plague and did whatever it took to force the extraordinary man to appear again.

In order to obtain the same plague that had broken out that year, he studied various materials and hijacked ships in the South Sea in order to dig up a sunken ship by the reef. In the end, he managed to obtain a strain of the Wudou disease.

But the South Sea Archives obstructed his efforts, so he planned the Nan'an incident to test the spread of the disease and slaughter the Archives' agents.

Zhang Haiyan and Zhang Haiqi were the lucky survivors, and they obtained evidence of Mo Yungao's actions on the train that year.

Changsha defense officer Zhang Qishan went to Beihai, took over Mo Yungao's territory, replaced the soldiers with his own men at lightning speed, and killed the ones Mo Yungao trusted.

After Mo Yungao returned to Beihai from Nanjing, he found that Beihai had undergone a change in leadership. When Zhang Qishan surrounded him at the dock, Mo Yungao fled into the depths of the Guangxi mountains. No one knew what became of him after that.

Mo Yungao was keen on researching nerve gas, which meant that many unnamed corpses were found in his mansion. Several of the corpses were believed to be people from the Zhang family, but their hands were cut off and they were so decomposed that they were unrecognizable.

Now that the story has developed like this, we can breathe a sigh of relief.

Zhang Qishan returned to Changsha, hoping to incorporate Zhang Haiyan and Zhang Haiqi into his defense force and help them rebuild the South Sea Archives. But Zhang Haiyan didn't feel that he could be a soldier. He couldn't bear the weight of the real military uniform, so he rejected the job offer. But he did gain a somewhat formal uniform, so he could be considered a law enforcement officer.

They didn't get to avenge Zhang Haixia since Mo Yungao escaped capture and went deep into the mountains, but there would be a series of follow-up events to wrap it up.

Despite all this, the threat was ultimately lifted. All the plague teams and disease strains were confiscated and burned.

Meanwhile, He Jianxi was looking for Zhang Haiyan in Xiamen. As he was searching, he happened to find Haili Bank and got hired as an assistant there. He was still trying to crack the mystery sketches that Zhang Haixia had left on the money. He Jianxi's story has just begun, and these sketches play a very important role in the follow-up story.

But I have to emphasize again that this isn't the time to tell this story.

If this is truly the end of the story, then it's too perfect. There are always painful moments here and there throughout life.

Zhang Haiqi slept for seven days and seven nights. The military doctor gave Zhang Haiqi nutrient solutions to prevent her from becoming dehydrated. He also told Zhang Haiyan that she was in a deep coma.
