Chapter 609
She looked like a good person, but her clothes were too revealing. She was clearly not a decent person!
Natalia noticed Angelicaâs look of disdain and had to lower her head while avoiding eye contact. The uniform Angelica was wearing
seemed quite oppressive.
Nash did not respond to Angelicaâs question. Instead, he
Rowan and asked, âDo you know those three assailants?â
at
Rowan nodded. âYes, I know them. Theyâre members of the Gree
Bamboo Association. One of them is the grandson of the
associationâs leader, Lindon Carter.â
âLindon?â Jupiter stared at Rowan in disbelief. âWasnât Lindon
sentenced to death?â
About three years ago, Lindon was involved in a drunk driving accident resulting in five deaths and one injury. After the Inspection
Office took him away, more than 3,000 members of the Green
Bamboo Association surrounded the building.
The incident caused a nationwide sensation, drawing the attention o
hundreds of millions of people. It was only when the general of the
Eastern Territory intervened that the situation was suppressed.
Lindon was subsequently sentenced to death.
âWith the associationâs power, do you think itâs difficult for Dominic to switch his grandson out?â Rowanâs tone was mocking, and he was seemingly dissatisfied with all the inspectors. âLooks like thereâs a
mole within the Inspection Office.â
Jupiter smiled bitterly. He understood the predicament of hist
colleagues in Sagen.
The Green Bamboo Association was one of the top underground
forces in the entirety of Drakonia, after all. The pressure faced by hist
colleagues in Sagen could be described as having Mount Everest
pressing down on them.
Nash spoke up at this point, asking, âDo you know of Lindonâs
whereabouts?â
âCan I get a reduced sentence ?â Rowan looked at Nash and
Nash shrugged. âYou have to ask them about that.â He did not eve attend school, so his knowledge of the law was only superficial. Rowan had hit a blind spot in his knowledge.
After some thought, Angelica said, âLindon is an extremely heinous
criminal. If you can help us catch him, youâll be considered to have
conducted a meritorious act and may receive a certain degree of reduction in your sentencing.â
Rowan still hesitated. âHeâs Dominic Carterâs grandson. With the manâs influence, things wonât be easy for me even if Iâm thrown in
prison.â
The Green Bamboo Association had around 30,000 members
nationwide and a branch in Jonford. Although the Jonford branch had been uprooted, there were undoubtedly members of the Green. Bamboo Association in prison.
If Dominic managed to pass on some information to them,
Rowan
would have a tough time.
âDonât worry about that. I have a senior working at Jonford Prison. Iâll
talk to him and guarantee your safety from bullies,â Jupiter said confidently.
Rowan was still hesitant. Angelica, growing somewhat impatient, added coldly, âYouâd better confess quickly. If Lindon escapes, not only will you not get a reduced sentence, but your charges may even increase!â
âPurple Church!â Rowan exclaimed right away, his exp conflicted. If they wanted to silence him by killing him, might as well all die together.
âI also have all of Horaceâs and Warnerâs criminal records, i evidence of them smuggling and trafficking in human organs!â
With things having reached this point, Rowan decided to confess
everything he knew, hoping to secure the maximum possible
sentence reduction.
âChief Holt, you can interrogate him. Angelica, please take me to Purple Church!â
âAlso, arrest Horace!â Nash glanced at the time. It was already five in the evening. If everything went smoothly, they should be able to
up Loriâs case today.
Rowanâs gaze suddenly fell on Natalia. He had considered reporti
her as an assassin who had almost killed him. However, when he sa
the pitiful look in her eyes, he hesitated and ultimately followed
Jupiter silently into the building.
Angelica changed into a casual outfit she had stored in her pink
Accord and started the car. Nash and Natalia sat in the back, and Natalia kept silent the entire journey.
Looking at Natalia through the rearview mirror, Angelica asked, âNash,
who is this kid?â
