Chapter 58: Why is my profession panel in a 2D art style? Chapter 24

Seeing that Li Ang had no objections, Danika immediately put away the book in her hand, then opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat: "Let's go."

Hearing this, Li Ang climbed into the back seat of the pickup.

As Cole stepped on the gas, the pickup sped toward the direction the group had come from.

The group returned to Pioneer City just like that, and they didn't run into any swarms on the way.

Not long after, Higgins, who had received simple medical treatment, appeared in the interrogation room of the Public Security Bureau.

The person conducting the interrogation was still Cole, while Li Ang, Danika, and Ma Kusi stood behind the one-way glass, quietly watching the scene in the interrogation room.

The blond man, whose limbs were limp, opened his eyes and looked around in a daze.

His memory was still stuck at the moment he was defeated by Li Ang, and the sentence "Are you that strong?" even echoed faintly in his ears...

Wait!

Higgins woke up instantly.

He looked down at the restraint device on his body, a sneer flashing on his face: "Give up, I won't say anything."

Hearing this, Cole didn't speak, picked up the pliers, and gave him a set of procedures.

However, Higgins just looked coldly at the person in front of him ravaging his body, even though the heart-piercing pain had already soaked his temples in cold sweat.

Seeing that his methods hadn't taken effect, a hint of surprise flashed in Cole’s eyes; you have to know that he rarely encountered such a tough nut to crack.

This interrogation expert didn't choose to continue imposing physical punishment, but looked at the red-flashing camera in the corner of the ceiling.

"Chief, can you bring his family members over?"

But before Cole could wait for a response, Higgins said in a hoarse voice: "The idea is good, but it’s a pity I’m an orphan."

Hearing this, the three of Li Ang, who had been observing the situation in the interrogation room, fell into silence.

Cole was also a bit surprised.

Just as he was thinking about what method to use to pry open Higgins’s mouth, he saw the other party suddenly grin, revealing blood-streaked gums: "But since you want to know so much, I can tell you."

"I..."

The blond man had just said one word when his head tilted, and he lost his breath.

Seeing this, Cole was stunned for a moment, then his expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly stepped forward to undo the restraint device and perform first aid on Higgins.

After a while, he stood up with an ugly expression and looked at the camera in the corner.

"Chief, he’s dead."

At this moment, the observation room was silent.

Ma Kusi’s originally deep red skin had gradually turned to black-red, his expression grim as if water were about to drip from it, and he squeezed two words from his throat: "Contract..."

Hearing these two words, Li Ang frowned slightly.

It was his first time seeing this so-called contract; he had only seen related information on the internet before.

And Danika, seeing this, muttered with a look of hopelessness: "Leave... down the drain..."

The only clue was broken just like that. It was foreseeable that the Public Security Bureau’s work would definitely not be easy, so the leave she applied for could only be extended indefinitely.

However, the fact that Higgins had signed a contract with someone itself contained some information; after all, this wasn't something just anyone could come into contact with.

At least in Pioneer City No. 66, only some high-level officials could come into contact with contracts.

The Public Security Bureau Chief, the Finance Bureau Chief, the City Guard Commander, and the City Lord.

Fortunately, although Higgins was dead, there was still Raymond who could be interrogated.

Soon, the smuggler craftsman, who had been changed into a new set of clothes, was brought into the interrogation room.

Unlike the arrogant appearance he had at the mine earlier, Raymond was now as obedient as a quail.

Before Cole could ask, he spilled everything he knew like beans from a bamboo tube.

"...Higgins contacted us before and asked us to help kill you. Considering that you might find out about us, we agreed."

"But Razor said he had something to do before he left, so he let me go alone. As for where he went, he didn't tell me."

"I don't know anything else. I usually only take care of mining Fire Crystals and refining them. Everything else is handled by Razor."

Seeming to feel that this wasn't safe enough, Raymond continued: "Oh, right, if you are willing to let me live, I am willing to work for Pioneer City in the future."

In the observation room.

Ma Kusi thought for a moment, then stepped forward and said into the microphone: "Okay."

Hearing this, Li Ang looked at this Public Security Bureau Chief with some surprise; he didn't expect that a [Craftsman] professional could receive such preferential treatment in this situation.

Looking at the job information about [Craftsman Apprentice] on the panel, Li Ang gradually had a plan in his heart. ===== CHAPTER 60 =====
