Chapter 489 Fishing
Chief Andrew looked at Peter who looked like he was about to go on a killing spree, and secretly cursed in his heart: "You are a jackal!"
Most people avoid organizations like the Eighth Investigation Division, and most of them don't like it.
Although Andrew supported his nephew, he still found it difficult to have a good impression of this kind of institution.
Of course, this is also a good thing.
Father and son, one controls the money and the other controls the army. If they still want to be friends with the emperor's eyes and ears, what do they want to do?
Do you really think that the Emperor of Daxia was an indecisive person?
Andrew remained silent for a long time, acquiescing to Peter's suggestion.
Coming from a baronial family and having been in power for many years, how could he not understand the truth?
This matter involves the customs, and my responsibility has not been cleared up. If I talk more, I will be asking for trouble.
He believed that Peter, the jackal, would not care about his identity, and his deference at this time was all a disguise.
After all...how could His Majesty the Emperor's jackal be afraid of a domestic dog?
…
The Eighth Investigation Division took Collison away openly.
The reason is also very good. Sir Collison and Viscount Baring have always had conflicts. If you don't investigate, who will you investigate?
A large number of people were also arrested, ranging from noble officials to merchants and civilians. Anyone who had any involvement would be arrested and tortured slowly.
Because of the large number of people involved, the Eighth Investigation Division continued to mobilize elite forces from across the country, and even borrowed the military camp of the 101st Division.
After Collison was arrested, he seemed calm on the surface. He complained to the agents of the Eighth Investigation Branch many times along the way.
"Everyone, I will definitely cooperate with the investigation, but this matter has nothing to do with me. Although I had a dispute with Bahrain, there is no conflict over inheritance now and we have long since reconciled.
And I usually rely on Bahrain's power for business. For example, this time I borrowed his boat to go to sea. Unfortunately, an accident happened, but the boat is not worth a lot of money. Am I going to kill someone? "
Collison felt aggrieved. A ship worth tens of thousands of gold coins was really nothing to the Ladd family at the moment.
Even with the name of Viscount Bahrain, he earns more than tens of thousands of gold coins every year.
However, no one from the Eighth Investigation Division said anything, and all of them had cold faces.
Sir Collison did not panic. He knew about the Eighth Investigation Division, but his status was unusual and it was impossible for him to be tortured privately.
When he entered the barracks, he was held in solitary confinement. There was no sharp object in the entire cell, and two agents were staring at him outside the iron door.
There is something wrong with this atmosphere, Sir Collison thought to himself, is he being treated specially because of his status?
Even though he was mentally prepared in advance, Collison was a little panicked at this time.
He tried to talk to the detectives guarding him, but everyone just looked at him coldly, like looking at a corpse.
It was obvious that these people were not ordinary field agents and had something wrong with their temperament.
Because he was held in solitary confinement, Collison did not see anyone else until Peter came back.
Obviously, he has realized that something is wrong. These hyenas from the Eighth Investigation Division do not play according to the routine at all.
Peter walked into the cell, and the detective guarding him told him about Collison's performance.
The jackal and hyena raised by His Majesty the Emperor has eyes like wild beasts, full of cruelty and coldness.
He stared at Collison, with a smile on his lips, a happy smile, like... a hyena about to feast on carrion.
Sir Collison felt a visceral fear.
"Mr. Peter, I am unjustly accused. My father is Earl Connoll, and I am the heir to the Ladd family. You cannot give in." Sir Collison said calmly.
But in Peter's eyes, this performance was too clumsy.
He has seen hysterical prey, and he has also seen silent heroes. Of course, he wants to deceive more people.
But... no one can escape being discovered in the end.
The detective under his command pulled up a stool. Peter had no intention of torture for the time being. He just sat down and asked in a normal manner: "Sir Collison... Sir, if we invite you here, we won't know who you are." identity.
To be honest, even if Earl Connoll comes here, he will be tortured as he deserves, so let's not waste time on this nonsense. I ask... you answer, can you save a little time? "
Collison was so scared that goosebumps stood up all over his body. He believed that the other party really dared to take action.
But he still held a glimmer of hope and kept chanting: "No, Mr. Peter, you lied to me. My father is a count, and you will be killed by His Majesty."
"That was after you died. I am just His Majesty's dog. I just want to find out the truth for Your Majesty. As for my own fate...whether I am cooked or alive, I don't care." Peter said cruelly. Looking into Sir Collison's eyes, he waited until the latter avoided it with a guilty conscience, then grinned and revealed his cold teeth: "Actually, it was you who did it, right? I don't remember seeing you before, so how did you recognize him? My...Sir Collison?"
It's too strange for an honest businessman and nobleman to pay attention to what the spy leader looks like.
Unless...you feel guilty?
Collison opened his eyes wide and was too panicked to speak.
"Tell me, what happened to that ship?"
boom! !
Collison felt as if his head was exploding. He really knew it! ! !
"It seems that our Sir Sir still has hope. In fact, I don't want to be so rude... use some tricks on him."
Collison began to howl miserably. In fact, his performance was better than Peter had expected. He was still holding on.
But it was also because the Eighth Investigation Department did not really use some cruel means, because the fish on the other side had not taken the bait yet.
You ask why they used means on Colison when the fish had not taken the bait yet?
It was only because the trouble they caused made Peter scolded by His Majesty, so Peter wanted to hear the screams of these bastards to vent his anger.
And if they entered the prison of the Eighth Investigation Department and came out without any scars on their bodies, wouldn’t it mean that the Eighth Investigation Department did not work hard?
If you offend Peter, you can’t die happily.
…
Degen Port!
Hyena Peter left, and some people were completely relieved.
This shows that the other party did not find out anything. After all, this time they did a clean job from beginning to end and left no evidence at all.
If Viscount Balin was not a die-hard royal party, they would not use such cruel means.
But the risk is worth it. The only pity is that Balin did not die.
Otherwise, if Collison took over the inheritance of Viscount Barin, everyone's business would be smoother.
On this day, it happened to be stormy, and a cargo ship left the port overnight.
Of course, leaving the port at night was a bit against the rules, so it was soon spotted by a patrol boat.
