Chapter 183 The General Secretary

• "Are you suggesting that we bribe our way out of this?" Lucas questioned coldly. Although he was aware of Southdale's issues, he didn't believe these policemen would have the audacity to directly request bribes. He recalled yesterday's phone conversation with Otis, in which the latter claimed that corruption had been eradicated from Southdale. Lucas's fist clinched. He would now need to confirm the veracity of it himself. assertion. "I see no point in continuing this interrogation," the officer drewled. How could you claim that public servants are asking for bribes? He put down his pen and gazed evenly at all three of them. The police had a hard time getting a confession out of the three of them.
• A notion sprang to mind as his eyes fell onto Wynter. She would need to be forced to make a confession. He didn't think a young woman like her could stand their harsh questioning techniques. "Take the other two with you!" He gave an order. Dom realized the officer's intentions as soon as he heard this. In order to coerce Wynter into making a confession, the officer intended to question her alone. "You dare not touch us!" Dom got to his feet and shouted. But the cop punched Dom in the chest, knocking him backward.
• "Clam it, old guy! This is not a dilapidated village, but a police station!" If you want to leave this room, you'd better start cooperating!" Wynter had not anticipated that blow. She couldn't stop it from striking Dom since she was too far away. She gave the officer a gloomy look now. Dom had never been punched like that before. His chest began to hurt dullly, and he coughed. Wynter had a sly glitter in his eyes. She was too fast for anybody to follow. She was before the officer with a ferocious expression in a second. The cop almost recoiled in terror. "If you touch me, I'll permanently imprison you!"
