"You're going to investigate Hardy Lynne's case, right? Why can't you bring me along? My knowledge and identity can be of help to you . "
Her jaded eyes showed confusion .
Kieran, however, didn't reply . Before Mier's words even subsided, he vanished before her eyes .
It was not that Kieran had anything against certain genders or looks, he just tended to judge people based on trust .
Mier might not show any hostility, but she still wasn't a friend to Kieran .
Therefore, if he had a choice, Kieran would choose not to work with her .
Mier was stunned when Kieran vanished from her eyes . Then she stomped her foot on the ground angrily .
"Damn it!"
Her cursing didn't slow down her movements at all . She jumped into her car beside the road and started the engine .
The engine roared to life and Mier drove off in the dust .
She might not be able to catch up to Kieran's speed but she knew where he was going .
… . .
Hardy Lynne, as speaker of the senate, not only had a remarkable position and identity, but he also possessed a sizeable wealth .
At least the villa before Kieran's eyes was something of a luxury that a commoner could never afford in his or her entire lifetime .
There were three villas like this under Hardy Lynne's name .
Power and wealth were like twins .
Whenever one appeared, the other one was not far away .
Kieran didn't want to know where Hardy Lynne's wealth came from . He easily avoided the two police officers on duty at the gates, infiltrated the villa and sized up the interior .
With [Tracking] on, Kieran saw the many messy footprints on the carpet .
Doctors, forensics, servants, reporters etc .
Everyone had turned the place into a mess but the crucial evidence at the scene wasn't destroyed .
A white mark on the sofa portrayed the figure of a man as he was looking up at the ceiling .
The white mark was found in the living hall of the villa .
There were three sets of sofas in the living hall, all surrounding a wooden tea table .
Judging from the coffee and water stains, there should have been a cup of coffee and a cup of tea on the tea table before this .
"Wilberst knocked, and Hardy Lynne brought him into the living hall and served him drinks himself . Hardy Lynne was familiar with Wilberst, so he served hot tea without asking . And while Hardy Lynne was serving the tea, Wilberst attacked . "
Kieran's eyes were locked on the sofa .
The bloodstains hadn't fully dried off yet; the sticky blood seeped into the cracks in the sofa's back and was absorbed by the cushion inside .
"A single lethal blow! Not only was it fast, but the angle was grasped very well and the power was also substantial . "
Kieran couldn't help but squint his eyes when he recalled how old Wilberst was and how slow he moved .
After a careful search throughout the entire villa that resulted in nothing, Kieran swiftly left .
He knew that if he stayed around, he would end up spending more time and leaving much later on .
For Kieran, not wasting time was like not wasting food, both were at the top of his living principles .
. . .
"I can let you see Wilberst, but you have to guarantee that you will not do anything, including bringing him away . "
Wier was standing on the stairs of the station, looking down at Kieran .
If he had a choice, the veteran consultant would rather not see Kieran at this time because he was all too familiar with the styles of the Monster Hunters .
Monster Hunters could no longer be described as simply stubborn—they were persistent!
They became irrational because of it!
An irrational common man would cause enough headaches, but if a powerful person turned irrational as well, it would be disastrous, like now .
The death of the speaker of the senate, Hardy Lynne, already caused a huge commotion in Eiders, especially since he hadn't died of natural causes . Even if Wier didn't further question the topic, he would realize that something was brewing in the dark following Hardy Lynne's death in the already dangerous Eiders .
He was certain that if Wilberst were rescued by the Monster Hunter before him, all of Eiders would plunge into chaos .
The senators who were against the Monster Hunters would use it as an excuse and instigate a bunch of people that were blinded from the truth to cause an unstoppable tide .
In the end?
Those dirty politicians would not care about the consequences of their actions . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
They would only care about the capital of politics .
Wier would not allow such things to happen .
As the leader of the Special Operation Division, his duty was to assure Eiders' safety . Even at the surface level, he would give his best efforts .
So even if he had to face Kieran, he would not back off .
"Fine . " Kieran nodded .
The resolute presence that surged out from Wier at the moment was very laughable from Kieran's viewpoint, but he didn't laugh .
It was basic manners in front of a veteran consultant .
A man who risked his life to protect others, even if he was an idiot, he was at least a good idiot, wasn't it?
Huu!
Wier heaved a heavy breath; he had been really worried about the worst-case scenario, but fortunately, it didn't happen .
"Follow me," Wier said before turning into the station . Kieran followed .
The moment both of them entered the station, everyone's attention was immediately captivated .
A lot of them were doubtful and anxious, some even showed fear, and of course, only a few were burning with rage .
Kieran ignored everyone's gazes at him . He followed Wier and entered the elevator .
The elevator didn't go up, instead, it headed down .
Although the display only showed three levels, when the elevator reached the alleged third lower level, the time it consumed could have travel at 30 levels at least .
When Kieran walked out of the elevator, he saw Spec Ops members equipped with firearms loaded with real bullets beside many armored vehicles .
The scene before Kieran's eyes told him that it wasn't a prison, but rather a small military fortress .
"A shelter prepared for special situations?"
Kieran's eyes glanced at the supplies placed further away before turning to a passageway .
When he entered the passageway, his surroundings looked more like a prison .
Iron doors, iron bars, concrete walls, and prison guards .
"Here . "
Wier stopped at cell 311 and took out his key to open the gate .
"When you want to leave, call for me—use the speaker inside the cell," Wier reminded Kieran .
Kieran nodded before walking in .
Once he entered, the gate to the cell shut with a loud noise .
