Chapter 520

by karlmaks — In the evening, Ponda returned home. After resting for a while, he made a phone call to Lance. The call was quickly answered. "What do you plan to do next?" Ponda asked, smoking in his study. Today, the Bureau of Hazardous Materials also began interrogating the captured bar operators. Some of them were also subjected to torture, but the results were equally poor. But coincidentally, Ponda was in charge of the main interrogation work. Because everyone knew that he and the Lance Family did not…

by karlmaks — The moment the door closed, Nate noticed Hunter picking up the phone again. It was clear he was swamped. Nate's heart, which had been pounding, gradually calmed down. He went to the interrogation room his office was in charge of. The two officers conducting the interrogation immediately stood up. "Chief..." Nate waved his hand. "Did you get anything out of him?" The man sitting in the chair looked extremely tired. Although he had a brief respite when the police were resting, it was far from…

Chapter 518

by karlmaks — All night, Nate couldn't get any proper rest. He lay on the living room sofa, thinking about what Director Bruce had told him. He had to admit one thing: his good classmate had very unique views on many issues, and he had also shown him a higher level of gamesmanship and struggle. The defeated mayoral faction—he had once asked Director Bruce, "How can you be sure you can become the new chief?" Then he said that Lance had already taken care of the mayor. As long as Hunter was finished, the mayor…

Chapter 517

by karlmaks — "Is there anything I can help with?" Director Bruce's attitude was now very humble. He knew very well that if Lance was fine, then he would be fine too. If something happened to Lance, he would likely be immediately purged after Lance's fall. The fact that Charlie and Hunter weren't making a move on him now didn't mean he was safe. It just meant they hadn't gotten around to it yet, or perhaps that the "tall man Lance" was still shielding him from the pressure. Charlie and Hunter had long viewed…

Chapter 516

by karlmaks — Most bars in Uptown (Starlight District) play trendy or relaxing music, and many have live singers. The "cotton-picking experts," after enduring countless hardships, had finally achieved complete freedom. But freedom left them dazed and at a loss. In the past, although the farm owners and plantation owners would sometimes whip them, forcing them to work, work, work, at least the plantation owners would feed them until they were full. Even if the food wasn't good, they would make sure they were…

Chapter 515

by karlmaks — "Forty minutes ago, the gate was still open." A large contingent of police officers disembarked from their patrol cars. Hunter offered a simple explanation. In truth, he didn't need to explain, but he did anyway. It was all because of the damn judicial process. He had overlooked the option of having Director Dale help him obtain the legal documents, instead thinking of applying for them himself through the justice department. He should have stayed here. Even if he was unwilling to admit it, at…

Chapter 514

by karlmaks — In the morning, after laying out the day's work, Hunter left the police station with a file folder. As he drove, he pondered a question. Does Lance really not leave any evidence behind every time he does something? He didn't think so. Lance wasn't a god. Even if he were, he would still leave evidence. It was just that they hadn't found it. When he was studying at the police academy, the professor in charge of criminal investigation had also talked about this issue. There is no such thing as a…

Chapter 513

by karlmaks — Motive is always the most crucial link in the judicial system. The police officer glanced at Ponda. He didn't find any issues with Ponda's demeanor or reactions. He didn't exhibit any unnatural behavior. He spoke fluently, thought when he needed to, and naturally showed embarrassment or displeasure when appropriate. At least, there were no problems during the initial review. In other words, until some of his important sensitive issues were found, he appeared very normal. So, the interrogator…

Chapter 512

by karlmaks — Ponda staggered to his feet, falling several times. He felt that there was something wrong with his equilibrium. He was clearly standing, but his senses were telling him that the world was spinning. He instinctively tried to adjust his balance, only to end up falling to the ground. He looked back at the house, now a ruin, and at his colleagues trapped under the debris, their mouths opening and closing in agony, yet he couldn't hear a single sound. What the fuck, what happened? His mind was a…

Chapter 511

by karlmaks — In his office, Lance was handling the call from Ponda. He was indeed a bit surprised by the information Ponda provided, but it wasn't unreasonable. What he was curious about now was Ponda's attitude. He had been trying to win Ponda over, but Ponda hadn't been very receptive. He always remained just outside of Lance's control; he didn't want to be controlled by Lance. The most important thing in making friends is to be able to confide in each other. Lance turned to look at the blue sky outside…
