Chapter 98: 97 Target

97 Target

「……」

So… what I did in that restaurant at the beginning has actually been found out by you?

Looking at Leon, whose expression suddenly turned stern, the female police officer blinked speechlessly.

I thought you were fearless, so you really thought you hadn't been exposed?

「Do you usually not read newspapers? 」

After pointing it out, looking at Leon, whose eyes were a bit puzzled, the female police officer couldn't help but complain:

「Actually, your whereabouts were covered quite well; not only were you masked the whole time, but after hitting someone, you immediately went to a shopping plaza with huge traffic; as long as you casually found a toilet to change your clothes, we wouldn't have been able to find you.

But your luck was really surprisingly bad; you were just smashed into the hospital by a collapsed money box, and the photo was taken by a reporter from the Sun Newspaper and put on the social headline as an interesting story.

After the editor-in-chief of the 'Daily News' saw the newspaper, he didn't even use three seconds to recognize you, and after our Secret Investigation Bureau checked the hospitalization records, we naturally locked onto your identity. 」

Ah this…

Although encountering the Holy Spirit being smashed into the hospital was force majeure, but after evaluating others as reckless, the result was that he also overturned the car, Leon's expression was a bit embarrassed.

「So you…」

「So you were exposed long ago! It's just that because you are from the Cleaning Bureau, we didn't arrest you!

Besides, although my temper is a bit urgent, I am also a secret police officer; how could I be as stupid as you thought? 」

The female police officer, who had eaten a lot of shriveled in front of Leon, finally caught an opportunity to raise her eyebrows and exhale, raised her head slightly and hummed:

「Understand now? There is a reason why I have been staring at you! After discovering that rebels had mixed into the Police Department, how could I ignore it? Naturally, I have to guard against it strictly! 」

Leon was silent for a while after hearing this, and then asked back:

「Does the strict guarding you mentioned… also include sneaking an attack on my butt when I was shooting? 」

「……」

After hearing Leon's words, the female police officer's face collapsed.

「I couldn't help it for a moment… bastard rebel! Didn't we agree that we wouldn't mention this matter in the future? 」

「Okay, I won't mention this matter, but in exchange, you'd better forget about my matter! 」

After bickering for a few words, the two people who had cleared up the misunderstanding had improved their perception of each other, from the original lunatic and bastard rebel to the brainless reckless woman and… police personnel who were more radical than the rebels.

After recalling Leon's "political stance," the female police officer, who felt no matter how she thought about it, he was not on the same path as the Laien family, completely relieved, put away the list Leon gave her, and then asked:

「The things to be checked have been checked, what next? What are we going to do next? 」

「Next…」

After looking at the sky that was gradually turning dark, Leon turned his head to look at the female prisoner who was tied into a zongzi on the sofa, thought for a while and said:

「My business is done, but for the sake of you helping me a lot, I can help investigate the things you want to investigate. 」

The things I want to investigate… that investigator from six years ago?

After understanding Leon's meaning, the female police officer looked stern, then got up and walked to the sofa, and said seriously to the female prisoner who was gagged:

「You should understand that it is impossible for you to run away, and after returning to the Secret Investigation Bureau, what will welcome you will be 24-hour uninterrupted interrogation until you confess completely. 」

「Mmph! Mmph! 」

「Don't worry, I am not asking about the rebels now. 」

Looking at the female prisoner who was struggling while glaring at her, the female police officer took a deep breath, and then said sincerely:

「I know you don't trust me; compared to clearing your husband's name, you are more inclined to take revenge on the Laien family yourself, but I still hope that you can cooperate with my investigation.

And the assassination of the Wang Nu is too big; after returning to the Secret Investigation Bureau, all interrogations against you will only be aimed at the rebels themselves, and your husband's affairs will mostly not be investigated by anyone, so this is not only my last chance, but also your last chance. 」

After saying these words, looking at the female prisoner who stopped struggling, the female police officer tentatively said:

「Are you willing to cooperate with my investigation? If you are willing, just blink. 」

The female prisoner hesitated after hearing this, then twisted her head with some difficulty, glaring at Leon in the distance.

「Don't worry, the things I want to ask, I have already asked almost enough before. 」

Understanding that she was afraid that he would ask questions and extract more intelligence about the rebels, Leon raised his eyebrows and asked back:

「And you might as well use your brain to think, if I am prepared to inquire about news from you, is there any difference between you speaking and not speaking? 」

「……」

After hearing Leon's rhetorical question, the female prisoner couldn't help but look dejected, blinking her eyes somewhat decadently.

Indeed, that weird interrogation method of the other party seems to only require her to be awake; even if she insists on not making a sound, he can directly get the answer…

……

「Huff…」

After the handkerchief stuffed in her mouth was taken out, the female prisoner first glared at Leon unwillingly, then took a deep breath and looked at the female police officer coldly.

「About my husband's affairs, how do you want to investigate? 」

「Start with confirming the identity. 」

After preparing paper and pen, the female police officer frowned slightly:

「Among the people capable of harming your husband, the previous Minister of Defense of the military has been ordered to be executed by the Wang Nu, and the rest is your husband's superior, and the Laien family back then…」

「My husband's superior doesn't need to be investigated anymore. 」

After interrupting the female police officer's words, the female prisoner first snorted coldly, then said with pleasure:

「He is from your Secret Investigation Bureau, disappeared on his way home from work about four years ago, and the one found rotten was him; you just need to investigate the person in charge of the Laien Arms Company at that time. 」

Four years ago…

Hearing this, the female police officer was shocked and hurriedly asked:

「The previous director of the Interrogation Division? 」

「I don't know about that. 」

The female prisoner shook her head, sneered and said:

「I only know that he didn't remember my husband at all; it was only after I reminded him repeatedly that he remembered that he once had such a stupid subordinate; don't you think it's funny? 」

「……」

「But he is not completely useless. 」

After glancing at the female police officer whose expression was a bit uncomfortable, the female prisoner laughed at herself:

「Speaking of which, I really want to thank him; if it weren't for him begging for mercy desperately before he died, saying that he was just responsible for doing things and that someone else was the one who really wanted to deal with my husband, I wouldn't even know who I should hate. 」

「……」

So… was it ultimately someone from the Laien family who did it?

Biting her lip and crossing out "superior," writing down Laien Arms Company, the female police officer turned her head to look at Leon on the side.

「The one in charge of the arms company six years ago was…」

「Bobby Laien. 」

After recalling the relevant records, Leon spat out a name cleanly, then thought thoughtfully:

「The second one on the list I gave you is him; this person is the younger brother of the current family head of the Laien family, and he is nearly twenty years younger than his brother…」

「Oh, and his brother has no heirs, so if there are no accidents, he should take over the Laien family in the future and become the next Lionheart Duke. 」 ===== CHAPTER 99 =====
