All Chapters of Master of Life and Death: Chapter 611 - Chapter 620

Feeling rather puzzled, Cassian asked Darren, "Mr. Gulley, aside from the Leary family's child, has anyone else ever died in that well?""No," Darren said. "Our village has nine old wells. They used to be the lifeline of the entire village, you know. Everyone relied on them for survival. You could say those nine wells were the villagers' lifesavers."The wells were always guarded and watched over. Before this, not even livestock had died in these wells, let alone people."After the government installed tap water for all of us, however, I'm afraid the village started neglecting these wells. That's why Mack's son ended up falling into one and drowning."A flicker of remorse crossed his face. "If I'd gotten people to put up some barriers around the wells sooner, Mack's son wouldn't have drowned in the well. If he were still alive, he could've even gotten into a good college in the future, you know."The village has never produced a single college student before. We finally had oursel

However, to Darren's shock, Fiona didn't let go of Cassian's arm. She simply chuckled and remarked, "So, this is Ms. Colt's hometown?""Her family lives in town," Cassian said.Still hugging Cassian's arm, Fiona asked, "Where are we going now, Dr. York?"Darren glanced at Fiona, feeling a twinge of irritation as he inwardly raged at the situation.He'd already said that Cassian was his nephew-in-law. Why was she still clinging to him? How very shameless of her! The morality of society certainly was going downhill. She had no decency at all."Alright then. Fiona will team up with me. Peter, you will be with Hugh. We'll visit the families of the deceased separately and examine the locations where they died. Make sure to record everything in detail.""Don't worry, Dr. York. We'll be sure to do a good job," Peter said.Cassian turned to Darren. "Since we're unfamiliar with this area, Mr. Gulley, could you assign two people to accompany my colleagues and ensure their safety?""Sure,

Without waiting for Fiona's opinion, Cassian turned to Peter and said, "Fiona will go with you. Since she's a young woman, be sure to watch out for her.""Don't worry, Dr. York. We'll keep Fiona safe," Peter said with a smile.Meanwhile, Darren's wife had prepared lunch for the team—a hearty meal of the local produce. She also prepared a special dish of braised beef ribs to welcome the medical team to the village. The scent of the meat made everyone's mouths water."Let's eat first. Fill your stomachs, and then you'll have enough energy to work," Cassian said.No one needed any more prompting. They eagerly gathered around the dining table.During lunch, Darren even poured two shots of vodka for Cassian and himself.After lunch, everyone went their separate ways. Cassian, accompanied by Darren, headed straight for the graveyard.On the way, Darren said with a chuckle, "Dr. York, I hope you're not upset that I didn't let Dr. Nicoll follow you to the graveyard.""Of course not," C

"What about the soil?" Cassian asked.Hugh reported, "We've already taken soil samples and examined them. There's nothing wrong there either."Fiona added, "At this point, we can basically confirm that there's no contagious disease outbreak in Everstream."Cassian remained silent. He'd predicted as much. But if it wasn't the work of some contagious disease, then what exactly had caused the villagers of Everstream to die?"Did you find anything at the graveyard, Dr. York?" Peter asked.Cassian shook his head. "Not a single thing.""In all my years of living, it's my first time encountering such a bizarre situation. It feels pretty uncanny," Hugh remarked. "Could there really be ghosts and spirits in this world?""Keep searching, everyone. Remember to be as thorough as possible," Cassian instructed."Got it, Dr. York," Peter replied."Dr. York, can you come with me for a moment?" Fiona suddenly said.Before Cassian could speak, Darren frowned and asked, "What are you trying to

"Yes, Roy really was a good man. It's too bad. The good die young, while the wicked live on forever," Fiona lamented with a sigh.Cassian turned his head to glance at her. Why did her comment feel a little pointed?"Dr. York, no matter what, you must help us get to the bottom of this," Darren pleaded."Rest assured, Mr. Gulley," Cassian said solemnly. "I will make sure the truth comes to light, so that Roy and the others who've died can rest in peace.""Thank you."After thanking Cassian, Darren went inside to console Roy's parents, Tom Corbin and Cathy Smith. He also introduced the medical team to them.When Roy's parents heard that Cassian was the leader of the medical team, which had been sent here to investigate what was happening in Everstream, they tearfully pleaded, "Please, Dr. York! We beg you to find the person who killed our son. He died with his eyes open. There's no way he can rest in peace!"Cassian quickly helped Tom and Cathy to their feet. "You can rest assured,
