Chapter 229 - Identity

"Novus Rex?" Lance asked Jacob.

"You suspect that they were the one that's sending the threats?" Lance continued.

Jacob nodded. "I already got my hands on Oliver Garcia. He is a member of Novus Rex."

Lance was flustered. "But we don't have any evidence against them. How can you be so sure?" Lance seems to forgot that he is talking to Jacob Parker, the Chairman of Twelve Army.

Jacob's gaze turned cold. "I'll have the evidence soon in my hands."

"You know how to identify a member of Novus Rex. Have you seen any of them get close to her?" Jacob asked in a serious tone.

"You are right, I can recognize any of them, all of us members of the Society can. But you must've forgotten, ever since we came back five years ago, I never had a chance to get close to J nor watch over her. So how could I know if any member of Novus Rex came to her." Lance replied in an equally serious tone.

Jacob didn't say anything, so Lance continued. "As of now, the only persons who can tell is you and your team since you were that one that watch over her closely, that is if you guys can identify one."

Jacob furrowed his brows at Lance.

Lance continued. "If you want to know if there were any members of Novus Rex around J, you should ask Diana or J herself. You can even find out the member of Novus Rex that works at CLP Hospital."

Jacob take note of that. Then he asked Lance. "How to identify them?"

"Okay, there were three ways to identify them." Lance searched around Lily's apartment and found a piece of tissue from the kitchen and a pen. "The first one is a tattoo of their emblem in any parts of their body, usually around their neck, in their arms or on their hands. Most of the time, it is not hidden. The emblem would look like this." Lance drew something on the piece of tissue. He first drew a vertical rectangle, then on the rectangle he drew a triangle overlapping the top of the rectangle then a straight line in the middle. "The rectangle represents a throne, while the triangle represents a wing, the line in the middle is the king."

"But you cannot see the emblem at first look because it is usually placed over another design of tattoo. For example, the founder of the Novus Rex, Jack Ogden's tattoo is a medieval knight's helmet, their emblem looks like it was engraved on the helmet."

"The second one is a small cut on the tip of either left or right ear and the third one which only the higher ups have a silver piercing of their emblem that is found just below the cut on the tip of their ear. The only persons who have this piercing were the members of the Ogden family, their first, second and third in command, legal advisers and group leaders."

"If you wanted to find out their activities, you should watch over Alex Ogden. He is the grandson of Jack Ogden. Since Jack Ogden left the country ten years ago to expand their operations, Alex Ogden has taken over the group in the country. It is easier to watch over them freely for now since you and J haven't announced your relationship. They would never suspect the Twelve Army's relation with The Robin Hood Society yet."
