Chapter 1576

Matthew hid behind the hill and observed for a little while longer before he stealthily drew closer to the court

where the Depository was.

He took out a small porcelain vial from his pocket and tipped out sof the white powder onto his palm.

The powder was specially curated to knock someone out for a short period of time. He tossed the powder into

the air and let the night breeze carry the particles over to the court. Sure enough, the guards there began falling

unconscious one by one.

However, Matthew did not immediately sneak into the Depository. Instead, he retreated to hide behind another

hill that was much further away, then waited.

These guards had only passed out for a brief moment when suddenly, a loud noise cfrom the Depository. It

was like someone had sounded the alarm, which indicated that there were more guards in the building.

Upon seeing the guards outside the Depository fall unconscious, the guards inside immediately sensed that

something was off and sounded the alarm. Had Matthew snuck into the court right after he knocked out the

guards, he would have been caught.

Following the sound of the alarm, everyone in Rathbone Court woke up and bolted for the Depository to see what

was going on. Seeing as the Depository was practically the heart of the family, they did not waste any time

rushing out to defend it.

Meanwhile, a guard dashed out from the Depository as well and hurried over to Macon's house, presumably to

report the possible intrusion.

Matthew followed the guard carefully and found himself standing outside Macon's private court.

Being a reclusive man, Macon enjoyed his own company and did not like crowds. His courtyard was tucked away

in a quiet and remote area of the compound with hardly anyone guarding it. While waiting for the guard to enter

the courtyard, Matthew climbed over the wall and infiltrated it as well.

Macon's courtyard took up at least three or four acres of the estate. It featured a two-story house surrounded by

a landscaped garden. The garden was filled with flowers, trees, grass, ponds, and even small man-made hills. It

looked like a small sanctuary tailored for geriatrics to gain a peace of mind and have a cup of afternoon tea,

maybe even play a round of chess.

Presently, the guard from the Depository hurried up to Macon's house, but he dared not enter, merely standing

outside the door as he greeted respectfully, "Master, there's something wrong! Someone has knocked out the

guards at the Depository, and whoever it is must be after the Rathbones' compendiums on martial arts!"

One of the windows of the house was pushed open to reveal the silhouette of a man standing there. It was

Macon, and he sounded decidedly unfazed as he asked, "Have you located the person behind this?" The guard

shook his head and answered dutifully, "No, sir! We noticed something was off as soon as we saw the guards

outside fall unconscious, and we sounded the house alarm immediately. | guess the intruder must have been

startled and is now currently hiding somewhere on the compound. Should we alert all the guards and start

looking around to locate the intruder?"

Macon considered this for a second and said, "Have two-thirds of our security search the grounds. As for the rest,

have them guard the most vital places, especially the Depository! Also, call Gregory and ask him to drop by to

check on those unconscious guards. | want to know what knocked them out in the first place."

The guard stood to attention and said, "Yes, sir!" Then, he bowed and excused himself while Macon closed the

window and returned to his room.

Matthew did not leave with the guard, but stayed hidden behind the hill and waited quietly. His target for this

intrusion had never been the Depository, but Macon's house!

He had asked Melvin for background information on Macon prior to coming to Rathbone Court. He learned that

Macon was an extremely cautious man who would not take any chances, not to mention, elusive. He also liked to

be in control of everything.

A man like him would not trust anyone but himself!

With that in mind, Matthew believed that Macon would never be so reckless as to leave something as important

as the secret accounts in the Depository. He would only keep it somewhere he deemed safe, and there was no

safer place than his own house!
