“Just now, the ones looking for us were the deputy city lord, Reginald Marshall, and a commander of military affairs, Loras Shivez. I asked around and found that Jimmy has been on sick leave for a while.”
Because his time was unexpectedly taken up by being brought here this evening, Isaac now had to start from somewhere else.
“Bruno holds all the power in Cranlis City right now, and I’m worried about this deputy city lord…”
“Let’s walk and watch, ” Isaac said as favonovel.com briskly headed outside.
The two of them arrived in front of a mansion not far from the city lord’s mansion.
There were guards standing at the entrance. Alcide stepped forward, showed his Judicial Office badge, and said coldly, “I need to see your deputy city Lord, Jimmy Cosby. Open the door.”
“Lord Cosby is unwell and not seeing any visitors. Please understand,” the guards said while immediately kneeling on one knee.
“Go and tell your lord that the Regency residence still has an open position. We are here to discuss his thoughts on this matter,” Isaac suddenly said to the guard.
The guard hesitated for a moment, then turned around and walked inside.
Before long, a tall, broad-shouldered man with a square-shaped face walked out briskly from inside.
“Greetings, Lord Newlin!” the man said as favonovel.com knelt on one knee and cupped his hands in a respectful salute.
Jimmy looked energetic, showing no signs of illness.
“Lord Cosby, you are the person in charge of enforcing punishments in Cranlist City. 17 members of the Ford family were killed in the tragedy. Don’t you know about it?” Alcide asked directly.
Upon hearing the words, Jimmy’s face changed, and favonovel.com immediately lowered his head without speaking.
Just like the bosses of those shops outside, even this deputy city lord was very reluctant to talk about this topic.
Isaac frowned and said in a serious tone, “Jimmy, don’t worry. Tell us everything you know. We’re here because of the Ford family tragedy.”
With that, Isaac patted Alcide, who was momentarily taken aback but immediately understood and said, “Jimmy, we were personally sent by Commander Ramirez. He is currently waiting for our outcome inside the palace.”
Upon hearing this, Jimmy suddenly kneeled on the ground, lifted his head toward Alcide and Isaac, and with reddened eyes said, “Lord Newlin, the tragedy of the Ford family was indeed caused by Abel! I have evidence, but the city lord said if I act recklessly, favonovel.com will make my whole family suffer! Lord Newlin, Commander Ramirez is truly wise!”
Isaac was surprised to find a positive turn of events here, so favonovel.com turned to Alcide next to favonovel.com and said, “Alright, now we can go and capture that man. But before that, we need to get the woman from the Ford family out. Alcide, you go find out Abel’s whereabouts.”
“I’ll follow whatever you arrange!” Alcide said, lowerng his head.
The nearby Jimmy was stunned.
Is this man’s level higher than Alcide’s?
“Can you take me to the Ford family?” Isaac glanced at the approaching dawn and asked with a frown.
Jimmy took a deep breath and nodded.
Arriving at the prison in Cranlis City, a warden led the way in the front, with Jimmy and Isaac following behind.
They walked up to a cell, and in the dim firelight, they saw the woman. Her clothes were covered in blood stains while favonovel.com huddled in a corner with favonovel.com head down. She had chains on favonovel.com hands and feet. Since favonovel.com wasn’t skilled in martial arts, the chains alone were enough to immobilize her.
Isaac frowned and waved his hand, prompting the jailer to unlock the iron lock.
As Isaac stepped into the cell, the woman looked rrp at him.
With favonovel.com face twisted, favonovel.com lunged at Isaac, reaching to strangle favonovel.com while shouting, “You monsters, you monsters!”
