作者: Wendell Mayhew
"That's right!" Hans said.

Carl's expression changed completely. He looked serious and conflicted.

"Mr. Wagner, forgive me for asking, but what sort of relationship do you have with him? We did arrest him, but we have a reason for it. He's involved in a serious case and is currently being interrogated."

Hans' eyes narrowed as he looked sharply at Carl. "Captain Lopez, I'm not going to play games with you," he said coldly. "Dr. Ballard once saved my life, and I think of him as highly as I do of my own parents!

"I know very well what kind of person Dr. Ballard is. The case that you're referring to is completely ridiculous. Something must've framed him! I want you to let him go at once!"

Carl's expression turned grim. He was Steinberg's police captain. He had the authority to decide who got arrested and who got released.

Hans had power and influence in Steinberg. He also had many subordinates. Ordinarily, Carl would treat him with the utmost politeness. However, this situation was d

    Rosalie's beautiful face was grim as she said coldly, "You're Captain Lopez, aren't you? Sebastian is a benefactor of the Griffin family. I want you to release him immediately."Carl looked troubled. He didn't dare to refuse Rosalie's request. However, Fergus was upstairs. How could he explain things to Fergus if he let Sebastian go?"Ms. Griffin, Sebastian Ballard is involved in a serious case. We're just interrogating him according to legal procedures. If there aren't any problems, we'll be sure to let him go. Please understand." After thinking it over, Carl had decided to stand his ground. He didn't want to let Sebastian go. Rosalie's expression darkened. "Captain Lopez, are you testing my patience?" she asked, annoyed. Carl's expression changed. He could tell that Rosalie was suppressing her anger. "Um, Ms. Griffin, please wait a moment. I'll go in and have a look." Carl smiled, then turned and ran back into his office. Fergus was sitting on the sofa, calmly sipping co

    "Since you're standing on Steinberg soil right now, you have to follow our rules." Rosalie's expression darkened, and she looked grim. She looked up at Carl's office window and discovered a figure.She laughed coldly. "Captain Lopez, I see that someone gave you courage when you went up.""I don't know what you're talking about, Ms. Rosalie. I'm just obeying the law," Carl said immediately."As if!" Rosalie snapped. "You know much better than I do what the truth is! Aren't you afraid that I'll contact Chief Vince Weist?"Carl was momentarily stunned.If she called Vince, there would be trouble. However, at this juncture, he couldn't hold back! As long as Sebastian signed the paper to admit his crimes, everything would be fine.Therefore, he said harshly, "Even if Chief Weist comes, there'll be no use! Kick them out! You, come with me!" A few officers began herding Rosalie, Hans, and the others out. One of them followed Carl.Carl rushed to the interrogation room. He knew that

    After hanging up, Vince's expression turned dark.Who would be dumb enough to arrest a guest of the Griffins?Vince swiftly sent people to find out. A few minutes later, he received the information."Leonard and Captain Lopez?" Vince looked grimly at the names."Assholes! If they offend Ms. Griffin and prevent Steinberg's development, I'll kill them both myself!" Vince said angrily. He left the office quickly and ordered his chauffeur to drive to the police station. …Back in the interrogation room, Carl held his gun at Sebastian's head. He roared angrily, "I'm going to ask you once again, punk. Will you sign this or not?"Sebastian looked at him calmly and smiled. "I won't.""Do you have a death wish?" Carl pushed him violently and yelled, "Aren't you afraid that I'll kill you right now?" Sebastian chuckled and said, "You can try firing the gun!""Are you taunting me?" Carl snapped. The sound of a gunshot rang in the interrogation room. However, the bullet hit the floor

    Vince's brow furrowed in surprise. He looked at Carl and the others and asked accusingly, "Tell me the truth. Was he really the one who hit you?" "Why would we lie, Chief?" Leonard said hurriedly. "It was that guy, he's crazy! We were asking questions normally, but he just attacked us!" the other injured officer added. Rosalie frowned. She shook her head and said, "I don't believe Sebastian would do that. I want to go in and ask him myself." Carl immediately stopped her and said, "Ms. Griffin, this is an interrogation room. Non-related people aren't allowed to enter. That's the rule." "Are you feeling guilty, Captain Lopez?" Rosalie said coldly. Carl immediately puffed up his chest and said quickly, "What do you mean, guilty? We're just following normal procedure. You can ask Chief Weist if you don't believe us!" Rosalie looked at Vince, who nodded. However, he immediately said, "I can accompany you if you'd like to go in, Ms. Griffin." Carl and the others looked worrie

    Vince's expression darkened. He waved his hand, gesturing for the officers to let go of Carl. Carl laughed coldly and freed himself from their hold. He said icily, "Chief Weist, we all know the rules. You wouldn't want Mr. Targery to get involved, would you?""Mr. Targery…" Vince muttered, frowning. Sebastian frowned slightly and asked, "Are you planning to let them get away with it, Chief Weist?" Vince shuddered and quickly said to Sebastian and Rosalie in a low voice, "Mr. Ballard, Ms. Griffin, you don't understand. Mr. Targery is Mr. Targery Senior's favorite grandson."With the power and influence that Mr. Targery Senior has in Steinberg, he could decide my fate with just a few words. Mr. Ballard, can we just forget about what happened here tonight?"Sebastian finally realized the situation. Vince was afraid of Eugene. "What if I refuse?" Sebastian said coldly. Vince's expression changed. He looked conflicted, and he turned to Rosalie. Rosalie said impassively, "Vinc

    Vince's expression darkened and changed to one of suspicion.Meanwhile, Sebastian and Rosalie bore equally cold expressions as they stared silently back at him.Vince momentarily considered his options before finally steeling himself and shouting, "Officers! Arrest him!"Hearing that made Carl break into a knowing grin. "You are indeed a wise man, Chief Weist," Carl said. "Don't worry, I'll put in a good word for you once Mr. Targery arrives later!"As Carl spoke, the guards had begun to walk toward Sebastian to arrest him. However, they were stopped in their tracks by Vince's angry yell, "What are you doing?"He then jabbed a finger at Carl before he barked, "I told you to arrest him!"The officers, including Carl, were stunned.Carl's eyes were as wide as saucers as he glared at Vince."Chief! What is the meaning of this?" he demanded. "Are you trying to make an enemy out of Mr. Targery?"Instead of answering, Vince kicked Carl square in the chest, sending him sprawling

    Everyone in the interrogation room was stunned into silence at the bold declaration.Who said that? Just who was brave enough to say that in front of Terrence himself?Was he insane? Did he have a death wish?Vince's expression had also darkened immeasurably. Things were about to get messy.Like the others, Carl was stunned by Sebastian's words. But he broke into a maniacal grin right after."Oh, that idiot is fucked," he thought smugly. He was basically asking to be killed by talking to Terrence like that!Rosalie's expression had also twisted into one of anxiety and worry. She knew full well the power and influence of the Targery family in Steinberg.Though they weren't as powerful or influential as her family in Janover, they were currently in Steinberg, not Janover.Hence, even though the Griffins were generally more powerful than the Targerys, they were on the Targerys' turf.If Eugene wanted to protect his grandson and make Sebastian an enemy, Rosalie couldn't save h

    "This is for your grandfather! And this is for Steinberg! And this, well, it's just because I want to!" A slap accompanied each of Sebastian's exclamations. Terrence could taste the blood in his mouth as he lay on the ground. His gaze burned with unbridled rage as he glared defiantly at Sebastian."Mr… Mr. Targery…" Carl stammered as he rushed over to check on TerrenceOh, no. Terrence's handsome face was ruined. In fact, he might even look worse than Carl right now.After a long while, Terrence finally recovered from his shock. His cheeks burned. However, the stinging pain on his cheeks was nothing compared to the pain of getting his dignity trampled on in public.For 20 years now, he has been treated like a king in Steinberg. So, naturally, no one would ever so much as raise their voice at him.And yet this bastard had slapped him not once but multiple times. This would be the bastard's end!Terrence broke into a maniacal laugh as he screeched, "Bastard! I'm going to kill

    "Kneel!" Sebastian suddenly yelled.Brayden yelped with fear and fell to his knees."Sebastian, I… I'm a tristate inspector of the Martial Arts Court!"At that point, Brayden's final hope was his authority and position. He didn't want to die, and he especially didn't want to die for no reason.He just wanted to win favor with the ancestral being of the Berkeleys and get some tips on how to get a longer life."Call your wife! I'll give you two hours. If she doesn't come, you'll be tortured to death as well. I can tell you clearly that I'm a doctor, and I have ways to keep you alive until you get slashed 3,600 times with a knife!" Sebastian said icily."I…"Brayden trembled as he pulled out his phone. His mind had gone blank, and it took him a long time to find his wife's phone number. Her name was Darla Wyllis. "Hello? Honey? A handbag caught my eye today, but that stupid store actually refused to give it to me for free! It's a lousy handbag that only costs about 500 thousand d

    Jayden had only gone a few steps, but he had no choice but to stop. He turned and grimaced at the Berkeleys and Brayden, who were all looking in his direction.He was filled with regret. He should have made his escape earlier instead of coming back with Brayden. Egbert and Yorrick were clearly fools. One of them had maimed himself and ended up vomiting blood relentlessly, while the other stood there like an idiot for Sebastian to slap him. He would be surprised if either of them could defeat Sebastian.As everyone was watching him, Jayden had no choice but to return to his previous spot. He looked nervously at Yorrick, praying inwardly that the old man would somehow get more skilled. He couldn't let Sebastian screw him over!"This is the last slap, old man. Do you still have any feeling in your face?" Sebastian asked, raising his palm."Damn you!" Yorrick swore violently. However, one of his front teeth had been knocked out earlier when he was slapped, and air escaped noisily t

    The entire left side of Yorrick's face had become so numb that he couldn't feel a thing."Young man, just now you already hit me—""I only slapped you once!" Sebastian interrupted, holding up a finger.Yorrick spat and said, "How could one slap have made so many noises?"Sebastian replied innocently, "Everyone here can testify that I only hit you once, and I did it very slowly too. You all saw it, didn't you?"The onlookers nodded quickly, especially the experts from the law enforcement hall. They still couldn't figure out how an expert at Yorrick's level could have been sent flying through the air by a weak slap like that from Sebastian.What puzzled them the most was that Yorrick had clearly landed in a very safe spot. Why had he insisted on rolling into a pile of broken glass and gotten such a gaping wound on his face?"Fine!" Yorrick clenched his teeth and suppressed the pain in the right side of his face. "There are still two moves left!" he said viciously."Will you com

  • The Amazing Doctor   Chapter 2005

    Sebastian nodded slightly. Yorrick had probably killed the young man because the latter was proficient in mystic spells and was already on the brink of the threshold. That could be the only reason for Yorrick's senseless deedThere were some people who couldn't bear seeing people who were stronger than them, which was why they made their move before their opponent could grow and develop."Are you really going to concede three moves to me, old man?" Sebastian stepped forward, grinning."Of course!" Yorrick answered, staring arrogantly at him.He still hadn't seen anything out of the ordinary with Sebastian, so he assumed that Sebastian was just an ordinary guy. He had probably only been able to defeat so many experts—including Egbert—because he had used some kind of trick. Egbert had lost because he had fallen into Sebastian's trap, not because of the latter's skills. That was why Egbert ended up suffering from the backlash of the ghost he had nurtured and lost his powers."I'll

    "Young man, you're so cruel. Have you ever thought of the consequences of your actions?" Yorrick asked. He put his hands behind his back as he walked slowly toward Sebastian. Sebastian eyed Yorrick, whose training was at least on the same level as Egbert's. Besides, what he had studied was also a kind of spell. He and Sebastian specialized in the same study.The moment Yorrick got angry, Sebastian had sensed the faint power of Dainist principles from him."No blows are kind, and neither are harsh words! Why do you people feel that others should meekly allow you to beat them up? When your people are injured, you immediately think of it as the other party's mistake! That doesn't make any sense!" Sebastian answered coldly."Mr. Irving, kill that asshole!" Kayden said viciously. He was still clutching his crotch with one hand while he pointed at Sebastian with his other hand. Beside them, Jayden said defiantly, "Mr. Irving, you must not let this guy go! He's ruthless and extremely

    Huh? Egbert frowned involuntarily. He had never felt that way before. What was going on? There was a loud blast, and the gigantic statue suddenly appeared out of thin air. At the same time, Egbert suddenly felt his blood churning inside him, and he immediately felt a sense of foreboding.He was about to turn and run when a black bolt of light hit him in the back. He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and flew through the air like a broken kite. "Oh! Are you actually a sadist, old man?" Sebastian asked, smiling.Before Egbert could scramble up again, yet another bolt of dark light flew toward him."Damn it!"Egbert could no longer be conscious of his image and dignity. He swore at once. The dark light was aimed at his energy reserve. If he was hit, his decades of training would be completely ruined. However, he had plenty of life experience and had been through many such situations. When he saw the dark light flying toward him, he rolled across the floor like a bal

    The dark shadow stretched out a large hand toward Nina. It appeared to be planning on tearing off her clothes. "Die?" Nina burst into laughter. How dare a ghost who was only around 300 years old talk to her about dying? As the smile stiffened on Nina's face, she bared her teeth, revealing fangs. Her scarlet eyes looked up impassively at the dark shadow above her head. "Aargh!" When the gigantic, dark shadow saw Nina's true form, it turned to try and escape, but it was too close to her that it was impossible for it to do so.It had only taken one step backward before Nina reached out and yanked it back."Have mercy, my lady!" The giant shadow disappeared and became a dark and scrawny-looking ghost that was less than five feet tall. "How dare you disrupt my dreams? You deserve to disintegrate into nothing!"Nina raised her hand and pressed down on top of the dark and scrawny ghost's head. "No!"The dark and scrawny ghost fell to its knees with a thump before Nina and sa

    The Sacred Medicine Secret Annals also contained mystic spells from the Demon Sect. However, it was clearly written that those who practiced them would suffer divine punishment if they were to excel in it!Those were very heavy words indeed. How evil did those spells have to be if they would bring down divine punishment on those who excelled in practicing them?"Hmph! Stop trying to act as if you're smart in front of me. Have you ever seen such amazing spells? Believe it or not, I can kill your entire family with a click of my fingers?"There was a sinister tinge to Egbert's smile. With ordinary people, Egbert would only have to send out a thought to kill the entire family of his opponent instantly.However, Sebastian was being very dismissive of him. Evil spells like those required the supernatural spirit behind Egbert to sense the opponent's energy, after which they would use the same energy to find their family members.The process wasn't as mysterious as Egbert made it out

    Those deceptive tricks appeared impressive, but those who Egbert healed would only end up in an even worse state, suffering even more."I haven't committed any crimes. How can I accept my punishment?" Sebastian asked disinterestedly.Brayden sneered. "You're not the one who decides whether you've committed a crime or not. Come! Subdue this defiant man!"Subdue Sebastian? Who would dare to do such a thing?The law enforcement hall members exchanged looks.Upon seeing this, Egbert stepped forward and said arrogantly, "Young man, you've seen what I can do. Compared to me, you martial arts practitioners aren't worthy of mention at all. I'll be lenient on you because you're young and ignorant. Just give up and come quietly!"Egbert was different from ordinary deacons in the Martial Arts Court. He had been hired specially as a mystic spells expert.When compared with mystic spells or cultivation, so-called martial arts weren't worthy of mention at all.That was because all mystic spe
