New Gods of North America.

Chapter 488 Sincerity
Mr. Basque asked for a long time, but in the end he didn't reveal any intention of making a commission.

After all, detective agencies want to open their doors to do long-term business. They can't be like the little wild cats on the street. When they find something wrong, they put on a stern face and say don't touch it without paying.
Therefore, after Wayne dropped his bag and said goodbye, he just regarded it as another promotion for the detective agency, which was a step towards "expanding the business into the local political circles."

After finishing the chores, because someone was secretly doing something, tonight's arrest operation was a half-baked meal. No one was let go, but no one was arrested either.

Wayne still had to go back and face reality and consider how to close the case.

At first glance, it seemed like a good idea to investigate the sheriff and then put the blame on the people behind him, but Wayne chose to give up this line of thought for the time being.

First of all, the position of sheriff cannot bear the identity of the mastermind behind the assassination. There is no direct evidence at present. If he says that he has some difficulties and is just interfering with the investigation, it will not help solve the case in the end.
Secondly, if there really is someone behind him, then the water must be deeper. If the detective agency is really involved, who knows who will be using them as a tool. There is no reason to work for nothing.

It is better to take the right path and find a breakthrough from the murderer.

“My enemy’s friend” may also be an “enemy,” but one thing must be distinguished between the primary and the secondary.

Arriving at the police station,

Wayne was now full of distrust towards Sheriff William, but based on the current rules of the game, the assassin and his accomplices still had to be handed over to the police.
But this is where the fun of some things lies. Sheriff William might be able to do something secretly, but now the person has been caught. If something happens to the police, the questioning eyes may not only come from the cathedral.

If he had the courage to do so, he would not have chosen to trip others up in secret.

It can be seen that doing bad things sometimes also requires methods and ways.

Wayne told Connor to keep an eye on the police station for the next few days and notify them immediately if anything happened, and then he went in.

The "whale oil" that was knocked unconscious by the attack has also woken up now, but he was given holy water and is not in good condition now.
The church did not choose to take over the extraordinary prisoner. Instead, it sent people to lock him up in a single cell in the basement of the police station according to the standards of a "special prisoner". His entry and exit were supervised by relatively special guards.

Sheriff William came over quickly, his words half doubtful and half testing, "Shouldn't you have returned with us just now? What took you so long?"

Wayne looked the other man straight in the eye and said simply, "I just dealt with some minor matters temporarily."

Sheriff William tried hard to keep a poker face, and even froze for a moment, as if he was afraid that Wayne would see through his trick.

Wayne didn't argue too much with the wolf. He turned around to see how the old man would deal with him and chose to continue interrogating the new prisoner caught tonight.

At this time, Inesa was already interrogating the assassin's accomplices.

Knowing that she was interrogating the leader of the gang, in order to save time, Wayne went to the underground prison to find the Extraordinary first.

After flipping through the pages of interrogation records Doug had written down, I discovered that this was another piece of meat that was cut into pieces.
So Wayne started a new topic, "Matthew, do you know how we found you?"

The other person raised his eyelids, obviously interested in this topic.

So Wayne continued to keep the secret, "In fact, it's not just you. Several other people in your gang were also arrested tonight."

The other party seemed unconvinced at first, until Wayne mentioned the names "Avner", "Robert" and "Daniel" one by one, he had to face the reality and his eyes began to roll.

Wayne certainly didn't intend to give him too much time to think. "We have basically investigated you. You are a secret organization lurking in America. But I am curious, what is your purpose in assassinating Tom Hagen?"

"I have already said that. I know nothing of the assassination, and I have no accomplices."

"Are you saying that Carl is not your man?" Wayne asked.

The other party's attitude returned to being cold, "I don't know anyone named Carl." Wayne changed the topic, "Then do you know what happens to unregistered Beyonders in Virginia? Telling the truth may reduce your crime."

"I don't know what a Beyonder is."

You're denying even this...

Is your group’s business training all taught by ostriches?

Wayne was thinking about which direction to open a breakthrough. At this time, an agent knocked on the door of the prison cell. After being allowed in, he came over and whispered to Wayne: "Boss, their leader confessed."

I didn't expect Inissa to be so efficient. It seems that no matter how cunning a fox is, it can't beat an experienced hunter who uses big data.
Wayne then left the prison first and kept Doug to continue interrogating him. After all, in terms of the amount of information, the boss must have more.

As a result, as soon as Wayne walked into the interrogation room, he almost collapsed.

"But Carl seems to like you more and has never revealed any information about you. After learning that you were arrested just now, he became very emotional."

At this time, Inesa's clear voice was speaking to the prisoner in a calm tone, as if she was just stating the facts.

Ok? !

Even Wayne couldn't help but turn his head and take a serious look at Inissa. I didn't expect that even a serious white-haired beauty like you would learn to use emotions to kill people.

The expression looks quite realistic. In Wayne's opinion, it has a kind of black humor of "telling absurd stories with a deadpan face".

The prisoner being interrogated seemed like a playboy who just found out that his first love who had cruelly abandoned him was actually terminally ill and didn't want to drag him down, so he gave up treatment and left a sum of money for himself. He felt that even his soul had been hollowed out by the truth.

Wayne flipped through the interrogation records. After learning that his accomplices were arrested overnight, the leader named "Avner" had already revealed their origins and hidden purposes.

However, when it came to the most crucial assassination case, he did not admit that it was done by their gang, but only said that it was the individual behavior of that "Carl".

As for the specific reason for the action, he also said he didn't know.

Moreover, he did not admit that he and his accomplices had "that kind of" relationship, but it was obvious that even a hero could not escape the chivalrous spirit and tenderness, but he did not expect that the "chivalrous spirit" and "tenderness" were in the same person.

Well, the ball was kicked again...

The two of them could only take the interrogation records and go to interrogate the real murderer of the assassination case again.

Wayne was quite curious on the way, "Inesha, how did you come up with this idea to make him talk?"

It turned out that this group of people were not from the Kingdom of Windsor, and this guy looked like a straight man. Even so, they were able to open up a gap. This was a path Wayne had never imagined.

Inissa looked very sincere. "Didn't you say that there was a special relationship between them? I recalled the interrogation of the two prisoners arrested before. After ruling out other 'impossible' possibilities, I felt that the person the assassin really liked should be him, so I told him the truth."

Well……

Wayne could only sigh that sincerity is the ultimate skill, especially when one believes it firmly.
So he didn't know how to continue commenting, and could only nod, "You make sense..."
