With Ansel Torres’s understanding, he knew that Harvey York would not allow something like that to happen.“It’s hard to find evidence that would help me now,” said Harvey calmly.“But we should be able to find a loophole in that footage.”“The footage?” Ansel squinted.Harvey nodded.“There aren’t many people who know the Art of Disguise here, right?”Ansel pondered over the situation…“The Demon Monks from India!“Throughout history, Flutwell had been in good relations with India. The Demon Monks would pass down their Dharma to the people of Flutwell many times.“And their Yoga would be able to change one’s looks completely!“This is a loophole! I’ll handle it!”Right as Ansel was about to leave the room…Bam!The interrogation room was suddenly kicked open.About eight people were surrounding a man in a suit. An aura of an upperclassman could be felt exuding from that man.He was at most in his thirties, but the aura on him felt extremely prominent. Clearly, he was
“I didn’t get Ansel Torres here so I can escape the law. I asked him to enforce the law impartially,” said Harvey York.“You’re still trying to refute now?!”Nelson Torres was boiling with anger after hearing Harvey’s words.‘He clearly called my good-for-nothing brother to abuse his power, yet he’s saying that he wants to enforce the law?‘Does he think that I’m stupid?‘He thinks that I can’t see through that?’Harvey could not be bothered to explain the situation to Nelson, who was utterly enraged at that moment.“I don’t care if you believe me or not. I just don’t want anyone to bail me out for no reason,” replied Harvey while casually shrugging.“You think someone’s going to bail you out?“Who do you think you are?”Nelson pointed at Harvey with his nose. He could not be bothered to ask for further details. To him, Harvey was just a show-off who liked the attention at this point.“Tell me, other than my good-for-nothing brother, who else in this police station would eve
Ruby Murray, Ozzy Murray, August Bauer, and the others stood beside Joseph Bauer.They respectfully waited for Joseph to finish his training before they walked forward.When one of the servants handed over a water bowl, Joseph calmly washed his hands before opening his mouth.“Who contacted Nelson Torres?”“I did.”Ozzy took a step forward with a joyous look on his face.“I received word that the b*stard, Harvey York, got Ansel Torres involved.“That was why I decided to call Nelson as well.“According to my news, Ansel is entirely out of the picture now.“He no longer has the chance to get involved with the case.“Without Ansel, Harvey’s chances of getting out are as slim as they can get.“Harvey will be dead before anyone even notices, Young Master.”“Dead?”Joseph looked indifferent.“When did I tell you to contact Nelson?“When did I say I wanted Harvey to live the rest of his life behind bars?”Ozzy and Ruby froze when cold sweats were dripping down their backs.J
Ozzy Murray pondered over the situation before he showed a bitter smile on his face.As Joseph Bauer said, if it were true that Harvey York actually murdered the entire Bowie family, he would for sure be dead with Nelson Torres’s involvement.But since the entire thing was a ploy to deal with Harvey, Nelson’s keen senses would most likely ruin the whole thing.If that were to happen, that would mean that Ozzy shot himself in the foot.August Bauer stepped forward after seeing Ozzy’s horrified look.“I’m curious about one thing, Young Master.“Why would Mandy Zimmer decline such a generous offer from you?“Logically speaking, she should be thinking of saving her husband.“But, what she’s doing right now is actually hurting Harvey even more, isn’t it?“Should we start by approaching her first?”“This woman’s a lot more troublesome than I thought.Joseph showed a cold expression when talking about Mandy.“I can tell she has feelings for Harvey even though it feels very conflic
On the next day, early in the morning. The skies of Flutwell were a little gloomy than usual.The sudden drop in temperature made the streets feel a lot colder. The stores were also opened a little later because of this.Two drowsy inspectors were patrolling the entrance of Flutwell Police Station.Right as they were about to change their shifts and have a meal…Dozens of cars suddenly drove over.Soon after, hundreds of people in robes ran out of the cars.The inspectors’ hearts skipped a beat as they held onto their firearms on their waists.The people in robes were obviously trained. Two mere inspectors would not be enough to hold them all back.But at this very moment, the people did nothing. They did not even try to surround the inspectors.The man leading the group waved his hand before someone started mourning.At the same time, someone brought out a banner from one of the cars.The banner was white and had black text written on it, demanding the killer to pay with hi
Harvey York casually opened the takeout box and tilted his head.“Don’t they know I’m the head of Law Enforcement?“Aren’t they scared of me killing them off for messing around like this?”Ansel Torres bitterly chuckled.“If this were any other time, they would be terrified.“But why would they be scared of you now?“In their eyes, you’ll never be able to walk out of here anymore.“Along with someone pushing them in this direction, there’s no better time to kick a man while he’s down than the present.”Harvey chuckled before picking up a piece of fried chicken.“Did you find out who’s causing all this trouble?”“Not yet, but there’s no way that these series of events are just a bunch of coincidences.“The enemy wants you dead as soon as possible…”“They didn’t want that initially…” said Harvey calmly.“But now that your brother’s here, he’d surely enforce the law impartially and solve the case.“The enemy’s scared that their plans would be all for nothing. There also migh
Half an hour later, people swarmed the entrance of the police station.Rachel took a group of people from Longmen’s Law Enforcement as well as the Hatchet Gang and formed a line to prevent anyone from entering the premises.There were some things the police couldn’t do, but the Law Enforcement and the Hatchet Gang could.That said, the enemy must’ve known that Harvey would probably have ways to deal with the situation.While both sides were engaged in conflict, more and more people showed up to watch the show, fanning the flames in the process.Even Flutwell TV, the voice of the city, sent a few professional journalists to the place.To escalate the entire situation and to let everyone in the city know about the incident…The so-called rally had turned into a press conference.Cameras pointed at the scene, broadcasting the entire situation live.Ansel didn’t know what Harvey was thinking; when he saw the huge group of journalists and a temporary platform behind them, his expre
After hearing about those numbers, the crowd gasped.For ordinary folk, these were astronomical numbers.Since Harvey was willing to spend this much money to prove his innocence, that would mean that he wasn’t the killer.After all, nobody would do something this unrewarding for no reason.“He’s lying!”“He’s the biggest suspect there is! He’s the murderer!”“He’s giving out this much money because he’s guilty!”“Why would he do something like this if that isn’t the case?!”However, a new problem rose to light as soon as one was squashed.Several people clad in robes stood forward.They were all tall and had good figures, and were able to charge right through the Hatchet Gang, who were trying to maintain order.The disciples of Longmen’s Law Enforcement frowned upon realizing that these people were familiar faces.“Let us speak! We’re all relatives of Vice Head Bauer! We have the right to tell the truth!”“Are you scared of letting us talk? Is it because you’re guilty?!”
Shortly, a ninja in black garb appeared not far away in front of them. He was the scout sent to investigate ahead. The scout's figure appeared right before Djinn. He bowed and said, "Lord Djinn."Djinn coldly asked, "How's the situation ahead?"The scout whispered, "I've confirmed that Geoffrey has joined the Grand City's Seven Families Joint Meeting. Three-fourths of the Universal Sect's elites had gone to the meeting. I have also confirmed that the place Neve stayed in, a courtyard at the back, isn't that strictly guarded. Our people have already hacked the security cameras in our route. We can immediately enter."Then, the scout quickly took out his tablet and showed Djinn some videos and pictures. Djinn looked at them and could not help but exclaim, "Good. Very good. Then let's do this together. Everyone, remember that we must finish this as quickly as possible. Our objective is to kill Neve and ignore everyone else. Understand?"Djinn's tone was low and serious."Yes!" All th
"That should work," said Coco after considering it. "I never liked Neve for the longest time. If we can pin her death on Vaida and Harvey, there's no harm to me at all. But we can't use anyone from Parkerville, so I'll need to make some arrangements…""No need for that," Dan said. "No matter how weak the Fosters are, they're still one of the Seven Families of Grand City. No one can touch them if one doesn't give them their all. It's best to get Sverker or Ghostface to kill her. I've been sealing all the entrances so far and not letting the people from Sky Plane enter. I believe they're very willing to cooperate if I simply ask for a favor."Dan gave it a deep thought after a while. Then, he smiled and said, "Right, I'll personally inform Clarion about this. Telling him that his beloved is in danger. I wonder, will it be Harvey's fault again if Clarion went to save her without making any preparations and ended up dying?"Coco's expression was merciless when she heard Dan's plans, thi
When Coco heard what Dan had to say, she gave him an expectant look. "Dan, when you finally become mayor, I'll be more than just the princess of Parkerville. I will be the princess of the entire Grand City! Let's see who dares to cross me then!"Then, Dan smiled gently at Coco. "It's good that you finally understand this.""But, the problem is that I still can't let this go! Vaida and Harvey have crossed a line! How could they slap a face as pretty as mine? How ridiculous!" Coco held her still-swollen face, looking vicious."Not to mention, Vaida even wanted me to reimburse her for all the profit I had already taken from the restaurant! But am I supposed to give that up? I can't bear the loss of face!" Coco said as a cold glint appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she was never going to let it slide."Do you really want to get revenge?" Dan asked after giving it a thought. "The only person who could officially keep the Seven Families under control was the Hierophant. You can t
"He might look like a simple man, but every time he benefits from something, it's always because of good luck. But when someone is always this lucky, then the luck becomes part of his power. In the past, I also believed that I could easily crush him. But the result? Just how much have we lost in Grand City? "Clarion, Durandal… Other than these two, how many more must we sacrifice? How many people must we lose? That's why when we're targeting him, whether we choose peace or war, we must think things through and consider the consequences. Otherwise, we might be in huge trouble if we're careless…"Obviously, Dan was learning from his past mistakes. After failing multiple times, he had a deep understanding of Harvey. Even if her most beloved sister was utterly humiliated, even if Parkerville was humiliated entirely, Dan still believed that he needed to be careful about this. Since no one could tell who would come up on top if this continued."Fine. Since we can't secretly attack or get
Just when Harvey and Alexei were shocked at the truth Vaida had revealed, Coco was back in her home. Not only was Coco still awake, but she was also pacing around Dan's room with an angered expression."Of course, I know he's the representative of the Martial Arts Alliance and also know that he's Vaida's so-called man of destiny. He even humiliated Sky Plane at the training hall earlier. And then, he even made that traitor Clarion turn on you after what happened at the casino."But are we supposed to be scared of him because of all this? Kill him! Kill him now! I believe with your power, you have all the means to make him suffer and die in Grand City! What right does an outsider have to show off like that in Grand City? Are you kidding me?!"Coco no longer had the charm and grace when she was outside. All that was on her beautiful face was a vengeful expression. She wished she could stomp on Harvey right now and kill him using her high heels.Dan ignored her and simply drank the ho
When Coco heard what Harvey had said, her face twisted in anger. She wished she could pounce at him and tear his flesh with her teeth. But the last of her conscience made her suppress her anger.All these years, she called herself the princess of Grand City and openly said she could one-up all the women in this city, becoming the so-called number one lady. As for Vaida, the former number one? Coco did not pay her much attention and simply treated her as a mental patient who was not even worth her time.But now, she needed to apologize to Vaida?At that moment, all Coco could feel was her utter suffocation. But if she refused to apologize, Harvey would not let her be. He might even slap her again.Meanwhile, if she called reinforcements from Dan and Parkerville, it might not be enough to suppress this fool. Not to mention, this might make her the laughingstock of Grand City.When those thoughts crossed her mind, Coco decided to suppress her anger and end this situation. Once this w
"Have you forgotten your promises to my older brother? Are you going to turn back on your promises?" Coco reminded Zoltan since he had already chosen a side, there were things that he had to do no matter what he thought about it.However, Zoltan had completely ignored Coco. His expression changed a few times before he finally bowed and said, "My apologies, Mr. Harvey. I didn't recognize you for who you are."The moment Coco opened her mouth, Zoltan was 100 percent sure Harvey was indeed who he claimed he was. The Representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, the Chairman of Country H Commercial Group, the Scion of Dragon Gate, Prince of South Light… But most importantly, he had utterly defeated Mark of Origin Fist and even the Second Branch owed him a great debt.All of this was enough for him to show respect toward Harvey.Most importantly, he was part of the Second Branch. He could choose to stand with Dan, but he could never go against the family's will. Otherwise, there wa
Crack!Zoltan heard a loud crack before he could even pull the Repeating Crossbow's trigger. Harvey had already snapped the Repeating Crossbow in half using just one hand after touching it.Harvey did not care about the disbelief on Zoltan's face. He raised his leg and immediately kicked him in his stomach. The attack was very powerful. While Zoltan was also a martial arts elite, he stumbled backward despite trying his best to keep himself under control.Coco, Tina, and the others all looked at this moment in surprise. While everything Harvey did so far had been arrogant, it was still quite challenging for them to believe he was still being so haughty before the person in charge of the Peacekeeping Agency.Typically, no one would have done something like this, even if they wanted to die. Harvey would pay an unimaginable price for all his arrogant actions thus far.Zoltan, who had just taken office, would not stop until Harvey was dead to protect his power and status. And just as e
Coco felt like she finally had someone to cling to when she saw Zoltan walking in with a stern expression, accompanied by his men with metallic weapons and Martial Arts Weapons on them.The fear on her face had disappeared entirely, leaving behind coldness and pride.She glanced at Harvey and said, "Zoltan, you're just in time. Belladonna Cult's Princess Vaida is sick again. Please send her to the mental health institute. Her sugar baby most likely took some sort of drugs… He even managed to injure Hereward and the others."Don't worry about this. Tell all your people to attack simultaneously and punish him according to our city's law. Remember, our city is a city of fairness. Punish them according to our laws. You can't show him leniency just because of Vaida!"Coco stood in the middle of the chamber with her hands folded in front of her chest. She stood there giving out commands, coming off as overbearing and egotistical. It was as if everything within Grand City was hers to comm
