Everyone from the Torres family worked for the government.Their most important task was to uphold justice.Not just the Wright family—the victims of this incident, the Torres family, would have to be fair toward the others as well.Without a second thought, Ansel quickly went out of the interrogation room.Two hours later, Ansel showed up again. Everything had been set in stone.“Everything’s done, Sir York,” Ansel said, standing respectfully beside Harvey.“We’ve investigated everything from your side. Your actions were considered an act of courage and self-defense!”“Not only will you be released, but the police will also reward you with a Good Citizen Medal.”Harvey sipped his coffee as he listened to Ansel’s words.“What about the others?”“Princess Wright was the victim, so she’ll naturally be fine. She’ll receive proper compensation for the incident as well.”“The Indians will be heavily punished, but because of diplomatic immunity, they were released for the time bei
A discreet Haval sedan was parked outside the Flutwell Police Station in a corner.The door of the sedan opened upon Harvey’s appearance. Sienna walked out with a warm smile.“You’re finally here, Sir York.”“If you didn’t get released, I’d feel guilty my whole life,” Sienna said with a sad look on her face.With her status, she could’ve bailed Harvey out of jail with just a single phone call.But since her status was just too extraordinary, there were some things even she couldn’t do.This was why villains in movies were always able to do anything, while the heroes were constantly restrained.After all, some people exist to protect the law and justice; they had no choice but to be an example for the people.Thus, Sienna didn’t plan to make the call from the beginning.Instead, she planned to quietly dig out evidence of the John family conspiring with the enemy and apprehend the culprits if Harvey got screwed by them.It was good that Harvey got released soon after.This mea
Looking at Sienna’s determined expression, Harvey knew there would be no end to this if he declined.After pondering about it for a while, Harvey reluctantly accepted the gift.At the same time, he was looking for a chance to give back something of equal value.After all, they were friends. It was only natural to return the favor.Harvey declined Sienna’s offer for lunch.He could see the bodyguards in Sienna’s car giving him fierce looks.If Harvey wasn’t Sienna’s savior, the bodyguards would’ve already rushed out and pushed him away from Sienna.Harvey didn’t mind. After all, Big Boss must be taking extra care of his daughter.After what had happened last night, Big Boss would never allow any man to be alone with Sienna.Most importantly, Harvey didn’t want to catch Big Boss’s attention.He was not only uninterested in being an elder of the country’s military force, but he also had no intention of being the Head Coach of the nine strongest military forces.All he wanted to
Harvey knew that the incident wouldn’t end so easily.Still, he didn’t think that the John family would go after him when he just left the police station.But judging from this, Harvey could tell that the John family was enraged.From their perspective, they were completely humiliated when they were at a crucial moment of becoming a top-rated family.They were working together with the Indians as well.If they couldn’t give the Indians a fair statement about the incident, their collaboration would end for sure!The John family couldn’t accept that.“You don’t have a say in that! We do!”The backdoor of a Toyota Alphard slowly opened.An elderly man clad in a tuxedo and with well-kept white hair walked out at a steady pace.He then shot a disdainful glare at Harvey.“The moment you went against the John family, you should already know the consequences.”“There’s no need to be afraid. We didn’t come here to kill you—we came here to cripple you and throw you to the Celestial T
Butler John chuckled coldly. Then, a gloomy look settled on his face. “Do you honestly think we’ll give you a chance?!”“Go! Cripple him already!”The golden-robed people took a step forward at the same time, their eyes cold. Every single one of their movements was synched to a tee, to the point even their breathing was the same. It was quite an eerie sight.Harvey chuckled.“You’re going to cripple me?”“With these three here?”“Stop dreaming.”Harvey took a step forward.“There’s no point wasting time.”“Why don’t you come at me too?”“All of us at once? You have no right to make Butler John do the dirty work!”Butler John gave a wretched laugh.“You three! Go together!”“Stop wasting time!”The golden-robed people nodded before waving their hands. Right after that, hidden arrows flew right at Harvey at light speed.Harvey knew that the arrows were dangerous when he saw his enemies’ confident looks.He took a few steps back instead of charging ahead.Boom, boom, bo
The men of the Northsea Tigers gave wretched smiles.“I don’t care who you are, but you have no right to meddle in the John family’s affairs!”Ansel calmly took a step forward before swinging his sword.The swing wasn’t fast, but a glare resembling moonlight could be seen.The expression of the man who spoke changed immediately.He could feel that he was being targeted by Ansel’s attack.The slash seemed very slow in his eyes, almost to the point where he felt he could just block it.But somehow, he felt that he was slower than the slash…What did this mean?The attack was already way faster than any human could comprehend!Simply put, there was no way he could defend himself against it!Even so, he didn’t just sit there and take it.He gritted his teeth and quickly waved his hand, shooting his hidden arrows.Everyone could finally see Ansel’s hit landing.They thought that the entire place would be shattered into pieces, but the man only fell to the ground, paralyzed. Hi
“State my name?”“You say that as if you can exact your revenge if I tell you who I am.”“If it wasn’t for my identity, I could’ve killed you a hundred times over by now.”Ansel shot her a frosty look. The remaining people who left standing were frantically twitching their eyes.They immediately took off the safeties of their firearms, but their weapons felt so unusually cold and heavy at that very moment.Harvey looked at what was happening, curious. When he had chosen to retire a long time ago, Ansel did the same. Ansel wasn’t a God of War yet back then.Even so, Ansel had been training nonstop ever since. He would be able to break through and become a new God of War if the opportunity were to show itself!Harvey was pleasantly surprised by Ansel’s skill.There was no need for him to fight as much, after all.“I was wondering who it was! You’re Director Torres!”Butler John finally recognized Ansel as everyone was frozen in place.“The well-renowned Director Torres posse
An hour later. In the side hall of the John family’s manor, a handsome-looking man in a suit kicked Butler John ruthlessly to the ground.“Did Ansel really say that?”“Who gave him the courage?!”“Does he think he can do whatever he wants here just because he can fight?”“Did he forget that my uncle crippled his father with just a single move?!”“Does he think he can control the John family just because he’s the director of the Flutwell Police Station?!”“Ignorant fool!”The handsome man revealed an extremely cold expression.He was none other than the young master of the family, Elliot John!Dahlia was his sister.After hearing about the incident last night, Elliot had already planned to deal with the situation for his sister and reclaim the family’s dignity in the process. He didn’t care who was in the wrong at all.And so, he ordered the Northsea Tigers to take action. With Butler John, who had always done his job flawlessly accompanying them, Elliot thought it would be e
"Or maybe you forgot who you are, Jesse. How dare you conspire with the Islanders!" When Jesse heard Harvey's words, he narrowed his eyes. Harvey's questioning was sharp and dug into his heart. However, from Harvey's angle, he was not exactly wrong.Jesse took a deep breath and said, "I'm not going to lie to you. The Xavier family as a whole has its own considerations, as well as my own personal thoughts."But you are gravely mistaken. The Xaviers aren't conspiring with the Islanders. However, we simply don't want you to go to our family and mess things up before Yvonne is married. So… Harvey, stay here."On the one hand, this is for Yvonne's own good if you really care about her. On the other hand, isn't this my way of protecting you too? You can't imagine just how many people outside want you dead…"Firstly, I can understand why because I exposed just how shameless families like you are, despite my own contempt for it." Harvey shrugged. "But I don't understand your second point.
"We meet again, Harvey. What? Do you think Dragon Cell's fried chicken is to your taste, so you came in for a stroll?"At the same time when Donald was being killed, Jesse walked into the Dragon Palace's interrogation room and watched Harvey enjoying his fried chicken meal with a hint of helplessness on his face."I didn't want to, but they got me with some concrete evidence, so I have no choice," Harvey said as he put down his fork before turning over to Jesse. "I've got a few things I want to ask you, but you're quite hard to get a hold of. But I think it should be quite easy to see you here, so I came in.""Questions for me?" Jesse asked, confused. "That's why you're here?""What else?" Harvey said with a shrug. "Oh, right. I also want to see whether Wolsing's Dragon Cell has already completely fallen and if they can still uphold their justice and prove the ingenuousness of the innocents."If you can't prove my innocence in the shortest possible time, then I believe that Dragon
Liza chuckled when he saw Donald, who was so confident in his abilities. "If you put some more effort into it, with your abilities, there's no doubt that Harvey will die a terrible death, am I right?"Donald rubbed his swollen face. "That little bastard hit my face until it's all swollen. Of course, I must get back at him a hundred, no, a thousand times! Otherwise, all this pain and humiliation will be for nothing."Liza bowed. "He deserves it all." "Alright, I'll get some rest. After everything, I can feel my bones aching," said Donald as he set down his glass and walked to his bedroom.But the instant he went inside, he turned around to look at Liza. "Contact Mitsuki and ask if the Island Nation still has any other evidence. If there's none, ask them if she can fabricate something concrete soon. If we want to make this case as solid as possible, we also need other evidence! And I believe they have already prepared it.""Understood!" Liza nodded and immediately left to arrange i
Just as Harvey was imprisoned because of Rita's testimony, Donald returned to his mansion with a pleasing smile.While he had lived overseas, he had plenty of assets in Wolsing.On the one hand, it was to make some money. On the other hand, it was to have a place to stay. And his favorite place was Arcadia Garden located in the third rim of Wolsing. It was not spacious and had three courtyards, and the architecture was quite old, as if it had not been renovated for decades.That being said, Arcadia Garden's design was quite old, but all the antique, the pottery, the statues… All of them were pretty valuable. If one were to live in a place like this, they would no doubt lose themselves in a life of decadence, becoming full of themselves.At this time, someone pushed open the door into Arcadia Garden with a creak.Then, Donald walked into the estate with a gratified expression, sitting on the sofa in the living room."Hahahaha! What a show! Isn't that Harvey quite bombastic? Isn't
"Now that we have all the evidence, why don't you just surrender?" Mitsuki looked at Harvey with a smirk.Harvey calmly replied, "Firstly, I have no interest in framing you Islanders. Because logically speaking, the weak will frame the strong. In my eyes, all of you Islanders are nothing. You're not even on my radar."Secondly, if I really want to kill Wilhelm, will I be so stupid to kill him just after he and I were in a scuffle earlier? Can't I wait for a few more days?"Thirdly, you showed a fingerprint and said all the evidence is clear. But you can lift my fingerprints from my residence and my office."Fourthly, you Islanders have just used Donald and Wilhelm to threaten me, so they'll make me give up on the duel. But when that fails, I'm suddenly accused of being a murderer, as if I'll go to prison at any time."There are too many coincidences. I believe the one who killed Wilhelm is someone from Island Nation, so that you can frame me.""Us? Framing you?" Mitsuki said as i
Harvey did not expect Charlotte to be willing to fight the Shinto Way for him until the very end. However, he did not want Charlotte to fight for him now.Looking at the crowd gathering around them, itching to get a fight and the people from Dragon Palace… Then he noticed Mitsuki's deep smile…Harvey sighed.He did not mind fighting the Islanders here.But if he fought with the people from Dragon Palace because of him, no matter who won, it would be a disgrace if news of this spread. Harvey raised his right hand and said, "Charlotte, no need to fight here. Didn't Mitsuki say she has enough evidence to the point that the officers from Dragon Cell are with her? If that's the case, then let's investigate. I believe I can prove my own innocence.Harvey ignored them and left the ICU.When Mitsuki and Donald saw what had happened, they looked and smiled deeply at each other and quickly followed him.-Half an hour later. In the interrogation room, Dragon Cell Wolsing branch.As th
When Harvey looked at how righteous Mitsuki was trying to portray herself, he was unsure how to react.Meanwhile, Donald immediately gave Mitsuki a thumbs up and said, "Just as expected from one of the three primary disciples of the Shinto Way, Mitsuki! Not only can you fight, but you're also guided by righteousness! With Mitsuki willing to preside over what's right, this means that there's still justice in this world. It also means that in Country H, those with power will still be punished!"Then, Donald gave Harvey a complacent smile, feeling that Harvey would have to submit even if he refused.Charlotte frowned when she saw what had happened.The Islanders were known for their particularity. They would never act rashly before they had all the evidence.However, from Mitsuki's reaction… Could it be that Harvey really did kill Wilhelm? But Charlotte instantly felt that it was impossible. For someone like Harvey, if he really had something against Wilhelm, he would handle it on th
"You…" Donald was so furious that he could not stop shaking. "You're making things up, Harvey! Even if I wanted to do something like that, I wouldn't have killed Wilhelm! He's a dear friend!"Then, Harvey said, "Does that matter to a person like you? You can even kill your own father as long as the price is right, much less someone unrelated to you."Donald could not stop shuddering when he heard that. However, he knew that Harvey was not completely wrong."Mr. Harvey, are all people from your country just like you? Refusing to admit to the crimes you commit? But I have proof that you're the one who killed the deacon!" A cold voice came from the other side of the corridor at this time."We went to the crime scene where William was murdered just now. We found a longsword with your fingerprint on it. This is the smoking gun. What else do you have to say?"Harvey turned and looked at the owner of the voice. He was one of the three primary disciples of Shinto Way, Mitsuki. She walked
"Donald! You're from Country A! Now that you're here from your so-called cultured country, you should understand something simple… You need to provide proof for everything to determine one's crime!" Charlotte spoke to Donald with an icy stare."For you to accuse our representative Harvey of murder without any proof, what you're doing is slander! I understand you're angry because you lost a close friend, so I don't blame you for the outrage. But if this happens again, don't say I didn't warn you!" Charlotte said that and placed her hand on the hilt of her sword, as if she was willing to fight if they refused to back down.After Charlotte had done this, plenty of figures appeared all over the hospital. It was obvious they were all enforcer students from the alliance. When they saw Charlotte had many more people on their side, Donald and his entourage were furious. They glared at Charlotte brutally, as if wanting to attack, but chose not to since Charlotte had more people on her side.
