Deposed Crown Prince: After three years of service on the frontier, the entire court knelt and begge

After being put in shackles and chains by those guards.

That feeling was unpleasant; my movements were severely restricted.

Hogg had no idea where this thing came from...

He was nervous at first, but at this point he truly had no other choice.

This helplessness is genuine helplessness; he has no other options now.

From the initial tension to the subsequent calm, I still felt that doing these things might not be so bad.

Especially after seeing that they were heading in the direction of the police station's office building area.

His expression clearly showed relief.

At least they've come here to see if they're going to be executed.

Moreover, the fact that they skipped the first floor and went directly to the second-floor office area is enough to prove many things.

After going straight up to the second floor, I knocked on the door.

At that moment, Thomson's voice came from inside the door: "Come in."

Then Luna opened the door.

Hogg glanced at Luna and realized she didn't recognize him.

Although he and Luna were both members of the Blood Nether Pavilion, Luna had never met Hogg.

But Hogg recognized Luna.

Hogg glanced at Luna, said nothing, and showed no emotion on his face.

However, seeing Luna suggests that Morgana is very likely inside at this moment.

Even if Morgana isn't there, Luna is, so he's safe.

After all, Luna belongs to the Blood Nether Pavilion, even though they've never met her.

But now that Luna knows he's from the Blood Nether Pavilion, she might very well step in to help him...

Therefore, his initial tension had eased considerably at this moment.

Just then, Luna let them in.

Once inside the house, Hogg saw Luna, Morgana, and Thomson.

Morgana saw Hogger being shackled and chained.

He went straight to Thomson and said, "Thomson, what's going on here?"

Thomson pretended to be stupid after hearing Morgana's words.

"Lady Morgana, what...what do you mean? What's going on?"

Morgana pointed at Hogg and said, "Didn't you say he confessed? Why is he still in shackles and chains... Didn't I say that confession is the best policy?"

Actually, they did this on purpose, just to put on this show in front of Hogg.

After hearing Morgana's words, Thomson suddenly seemed to understand, then slammed his hand on the table and questioned the guards, "What's going on? Yes, Lady Morgana, didn't you say? Confess and you'll be treated leniently! I've repeated these orders to you..."

In fact, these guards were all Thomson's confidants. The way they did it, guarding this man so closely, and putting him in shackles and chains, was not their intention.

They would never have done it without Thomson's consent.

Although they had an agreement, it was all an act from top to bottom.

"Lord Thomson, you did give the order, and we didn't bring it for him before. But, Lord Thomson, you also said that confession would be met with leniency. However, this person hasn't fully confessed. Even if he has, he's only confessed halfway..."

"So, we didn't use shackles or chains on him the entire time. Only during the transfer. After all, Lord Thomson, didn't you say this person is very important? If there are any problems with this person, we, from top to bottom, will all bear responsibility... We were a little worried, and we didn't dare to loosen the shackles rashly... It's just a pair of shackles and chains, just for a moment... it won't cause any harm..."

The head of the guard introduced and explained things to Thomson.

Thomson then looked at Morgana; in fact, what the guard captain had meant earlier was also his idea.

Seeing this, Morgana smiled and said, "Alright, you both have a point... I didn't mean to blame you... In that case, quickly remove her shackles..."

At that moment, the guards began to remove the shackles and chains from these individuals.

Hogger then bowed respectfully to Morgana.

He then said to Morgana, "Thank you, Lady Morgana!"

Morgana waved her hand, then said to Hogg, "No need for thanks, I'm not helping you. However, since I said that, we need to get that thing done..."

Hogg smiled broadly upon hearing Morgana's words and then said, "Alright... Lady Morgana, I wonder if Lord Thomson has already conveyed my request to you..."

Hogg actually understood perfectly well, just as Thomson had told him before.

It seems like he has a choice, but in reality, he only has the choice to live or to die.

Besides that, there was absolutely no other choice...

He had no choice, so his attitude towards Morgana was relatively good.

Morgana smiled at them and then said, "Yes, I'll echo your request. We will definitely do our best to fulfill it... However, we need to know one thing. Do you know where your people are?"

Hogger nodded to Morgana, then said, "Lady Morgana, of course I know... Are you really willing to save them? I'm asking you to rescue them... not to alert the enemy and harm them..."

Morgana smiled and nodded at Hogg, saying, "Of course, I'll naturally go to rescue them... But, as Thomson mentioned earlier, I need you to show some sincerity! You need to promise me that you'll do your best. After all, your people aren't in my hands. If they were, I would definitely do everything in my power... But unfortunately, they aren't in my hands right now, so you should understand the variables involved..."

"Hogg, and I promise you. It's not that I want to get information from you... I'm just giving you a chance. I definitely know more than you do, believe me..."

Morgana spoke with great confidence, but Hogg, though smiling, couldn't hide his suspicion...

Morgana smiled at Hogg and then said, "You don't believe me, do you? And you think I must be bragging?"

Hogg smiled at Morgana and shook his head: "I believe you know some things, but I also believe I have information that you certainly don't know..."

Hogg does have some sense, so what he said is quite good...

He didn't directly deny Morgana, but used a roundabout approach, which clearly indicated that he definitely had something he didn't know...

Morgana laughed and said, "Yes, I admit that... Of course, I know you're probably suspicious of me..."

Hogg still thought Morgana was bragging.

Hogg thought Morgana's words were incredibly impressive, but it turned out that the person she trusted most was actually the biggest spy.

Therefore, he was somewhat dismissive of what Morgana said.

Just then, Morgana also saw through Hogg's thoughts.

Morgana said to Hogg, "Hogg, you may say you trust me, but in your heart you're thinking I'm bragging. Don't you know I have a mole from your organization by my side?"

Upon hearing Morgana's words, Hogg's eyes widened.

He was staring at Morgana with an expression of utter disbelief.

Because he had just thought about that idea in his mind.

But Morgana, without saying a word, told him what was on his mind.

Although Morgana did not name names, Hogg clearly understood what she was talking about.

After saying that, Morgana turned to Hogg and said, "Hogg, as I said, whoever it is, as long as I give them a chance, as long as they change their ways and serve us, I am willing to give you a chance."

"Especially people like you, you weren't born evil, you were also forced into this situation. If you had a choice, we would definitely have done what you did..."

"Alright, I've shown my sincerity enough. I'm really busy, but I've made time to come here. I hope you won't let me down. Although I'm willing to give you a chance, you need to understand that I'm not the kind of pushover... If you seize the opportunity, we can give you a chance to start over."

"And I gave you a chance, but you didn't want it. Of course, I will give you a chance... I will naturally give you a chance to start over, which is to kill you and hope that you can start over in your next life."

Morgana has already expressed everything she needed to say with these words.

If Hogg still doesn't understand after it's been explained, wouldn't that be a joke?

"Yes, yes, Lady Morgana, you've already come all this way and said so much to me, which is enough to show your attitude..."

"I do have a lot of information, but I need to speak with you privately. Of course, Luna and Lord Thomson are welcome, but everyone else, please excuse us."

Hogg said that.

Thomson glanced at Morgana instinctively. Morgana smiled at him and said, "Absolutely."

After hearing Morgana's words, Thomson stopped arguing.

Morgana smiled at Thomson and then said, "Alright, let them out."

The other guards then withdrew.

After the guards left, Thomson said to Hogg, "Hogg, is this alright?"

Hogg nodded and said, "Of course."

After hearing Hogg's words, Thomson smiled and joked, "Should I excuse myself?"

Upon hearing Thomson's words, Hogg smiled, then waved his hand and said, "Of course not. The reason I kept you here is because what I'm about to say also relates to you..."

Upon hearing Hogg's words, Thomson's face immediately turned wary.

"Don't try to pin this on me. Let me tell you, this trick might work on others, but it won't work on me..."

Hogg smiled broadly and then said, "Lord Thomson, don't worry about that... I'm not that stupid... What I'm saying is that among the information I'm about to share, there might be information that you can help with."

After hearing Hogg's words, Thomson looked curious and said, "Okay, then I'll stay..."

Morgana asked curiously, "What you're talking about, is it related to Thomson?"

Hogg nodded to Morgana, then said, "Yes, she is indeed related to Thomson..."

After that, neither Morgana nor Thomson interrupted.

He gestured for Hogg to speak.

Hogger didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "Lady Morgana, you said you were willing to rescue my family, but you certainly don't know where my family is, do you?"

Morgana nodded after hearing Hogg's words: "That's good. Tell me about this first."

Hogger then said to Morgana, "Yes, Lady Morgana, the reason I suggested that Lord Thomson stay was because our families are trapped on Devil's Island... My family is currently imprisoned in Devil's Island's prison, which is inaccessible to ordinary people. Therefore, I think it's unlikely that your efforts will solve this problem..."

Before Morgana could speak, Hogg looked at Thomson beside him.

He then said, "Lord Thomson, you're the warden on Devil's Island, right? You should know that it's almost impossible to rescue someone from the prison on Devil's Island without anyone noticing."

Upon hearing Hogg's words, Thomson immediately frowned.

Clearly, he hadn't expected that his relationship with him would be like this.

In fact, Thomson didn't really want to know about Alcatraz, and he was even less willing to have anything to do with it.

Therefore, Thomson's expression turned sour.

Morgana had heard about some of Thomson's past and knew that he didn't really want to talk about Alcatraz...

Morgana then said to Hogg, "Hogg, I know this without Thomson saying it... I can understand it... But how did you know your family was on Alcatraz? You know, most people only know their family members are being controlled, not where they're being held. How did you know they were being held on Alcatraz?"
