Chapter 419 Alarmism
bump!
With the heavily armed battle mages leading the way, the police chief of Kedax City, Linton. Leach showed no expression on the surface, but in reality he stepped into the morgue of the police headquarters with the central door wide open, a little timidly.
This place is specially designed to store corpses related to certain cases. When necessary, autopsies can be performed on the spot to examine the cause of death of the deceased.
Leo, the presidential aide who was shot and killed from a distance the day before. Dia's body is temporarily parked here.
Linton. Leach had several subordinates and battle mages specially recruited urgently in the army, as well as those who originally followed Leo. Under the heavy protection of Dia's magician bodyguards, he ordered his subordinates to take out Leo from the morgue nearby. Dia's body.
The police chief turned uneasy and glanced at the prisoner being held behind, which was Annan.
"...Check the body of Lord Dia thoroughly!"
In the end, the police chief gritted his teeth and conveyed the order to inspect the body to the battle mage on the side.
There are some things that he really doesn't want to believe, but this is probably not the scaremongering of the arrested prisoner.
After all, he, the police chief, was threatened by the prisoner in turn. If he didn't take the initiative to check the body, then in a few hours, a whole army of white knights might force their way into the police headquarters. .
Annan. Gulen simply knew that he would be arrested. He obviously had a way to clean up the traces and evidence about himself, but he did nothing and allowed it to be retained. He even allowed the gang boss to report on him.
Because this person was prepared from the beginning, and his purpose was to contact the local police, or the police chief.
If Annan cannot convince the police chief, then his backhand will be activated. An unknown person will secretly contact the local white knights and let them take action.
If the White Knight intervenes in this matter, it won't just be a matter of just saying a terrorist attack.
After weighing the pros and cons, even the police chief could only act according to the prisoner's plan.
The police chief, who has been a police officer for almost twenty years, certainly has many ways to deal with the arrested criminals, but his instinct tells him that he must not act rashly.
A prisoner who is equivalent to being arrested on his own initiative is probably very defenseless. The other party may not be able to resist at all. Even if the other party does not have any weapons at all at this time, theoretically he cannot use any powerful magic. .
The police chief strongly suspected that the prisoner was a black magician and a powerful being who could compete with the King of the Rings. Before he was completely sure, the police chief who was too close to the other party could only act according to the other party's wishes for the time being.
Now, the fully armed battle mages from the army have been urgently mobilized, so it should be much safer.
The next question is about the inspectors sent from the capital.
The police chief hoped that the prisoner was telling nonsense, but he knew in his heart that the prisoner was telling the truth, which made him feel extremely complicated.
Becoming the police chief of this city is just a springboard for his future blueprint. His career or political career will definitely not stop here. He does not want to stop here, so this matter must be dealt with today. Just be good.
To a certain extent, if the dead presidential staff member is really a black magician, it will actually be beneficial to him. At least he can remove some responsibilities and negotiate terms with the president.
Of course, it doesn't matter if nothing can be proven. The prisoner has been arrested here. No matter how complicated the reasons are, the local police can handle it.
"Mr. Director..."
After more than ten minutes of body inspection, several battle mages surrounding the government staff finally came to a conclusion.
In fact, even without the explanation from the magicians in the army, the police chief had witnessed the scene just now with his own eyes.
The battle mage who was tinkering with something unknown, after playing with the corpse for more than ten minutes, the headless corpse suddenly disintegrated and turned into dust, leaving only blood-stained clothes.
Then, the battle mage captain who led the team took out a dark ring from the ashes with a slightly stiff hand.
The police chief was not a magician, but his status was high enough and he had been exposed to some black magic incidents before, so he immediately understood what the seemingly ordinary ring was.
"The Lord of the Rings..."
Although the police chief had expected it, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he saw the ring.
"Damn...really the Lord of the Rings?"
"Mr. Director, it's more real than pearls. Everyone here has seen it."
Annan, whose hands were handcuffed behind his back, still had the energy to smile and shrug.
"You should understand that this is not the holder of the cultured Lord of the Rings. This is the real Lord of the Rings who owns a large number of Lord of the Rings. And, I think you have guessed it, this guy is not dead at all. , he faked his death and escaped.”
"..."
Seeing the body suddenly turn into a large amount of ashes, even if the police chief didn't want to admit it, he understood what was going on.
However, it is really wrong for this conclusion to be said by the prisoner himself.
"Mr. Director, it's not too late now. This guy probably hasn't left the city yet. Although he has lost part of his power, not all of it. He should want revenge. Yes, he wants to seek revenge from me. This But opportunity."
Annan knew very well that if he wanted to deal with two Lords of the Rings at once, it would be difficult for him and his alliance. Even if he could succeed, he would have to pay a lot, and he might even be completely exposed.
Then, he might as well do the opposite and take advantage of this time to snipe Leo. Dia, turned around and used the other party's identity to make formal contact with the officials.
This kind of thing is very risky, and something will happen if you don't do it right, but Annan feels that it should be possible, or it must be successful, otherwise it will be difficult to proceed to the next stage.
"Mr. Director, actually I have one more request."
Although he is now a prisoner, Annan acts as relaxed and proactive as a guest.
"Let me talk to Mr. President."
"Do not make jokes!"
The police chief refused without thinking.
Let’s not talk about whether a prisoner is qualified to talk to the president. If the president is also involved at this stage, it will only make things more and more complicated.
"you……"
"Mr. Director, the reason why I blatantly want to kill Leo Dia is because I really have a grudge against him, but do you know what kind of hatred it is? Do you know his other identity? ?Do you want me to say it like this?"
Annan didn't know how to pretend to be unpredictable, so he just smiled at the police chief.
An expression like a smile will have different meanings in the eyes of different people at different times. Just let the other person interpret it casually.
"Mr. Director, Leo Dia, theoretically, he has a grudge against the entire Matatek people."
