Chapter 609 Second-Level Police Supervisor, Ockham
George puffed on his cigar, watching his men make their move with a vicious grin. These police officers were his capable assistants, and they had often engaged in bullying and harassment. Dealing with criminals was their specialty, and they were confident they could defeat Wang Chao easily.
However, Wang Chao remained calm and didn't even try to evade the attacks.
As the attacks were about to hit Wang Chao, the door was suddenly kicked open, and a voice roared, "Stop!"
The police officers who were about to attack Wang Chao heard the voice and immediately stopped, looking stunned at the person who had just entered.
They all recognized the voice!
George turned to look and almost dropped his cigar when he saw who was standing at the door of the interrogation room. He stammered, "Supervisor, how, how did you come here?"
Standing at the door was a middle-aged man with a big belly, blond hair, and blue eyes, around fifty years old, with thinning hair. His gaze was sharp and intimidating, and he exuded a terrifying aura.
George quickly extinguished his cigar and forced a smile, asking, "Mr. Ockham, how did you come here?"
This man was their immediate superior, the second-level police supervisor, Ockham Willie.
"What? Can't I come?" Ockham said coldly.
"You can, you can, this is your territory, so naturally, you can come," George hurriedly replied.
Ockham walked in, scanned the scene with his sharp eyes, and asked George, "What crime did this man commit that you're treating him like this?"
"Mr. Ockham, this man is a citizen of Dragon Kingdom, extremely vicious and bloodthirsty. He just committed a massacre at the Massachusetts General Hospital and refuses to confess. We are currently interrogating him," George explained.
"Is that so? Why do I hear a different version of events?" Ockham said coldly.
"Mr. Ockham, you..." George was taken aback.
Ockham took out a tablet and handed it to George, saying coldly, "Based on my understanding of the situation, Wang Chao is the victim, and he was only acting in self-defense. Even if he killed those people, he's innocent!"
"Now, release Wang Chao immediately!"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Mr. Ockham, this man is a murderer," George quickly responded.
At Ockham's words, George's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he said sternly, "A murderer? In our country's law, one can only be convicted after a court's ruling."
"I have investigated this matter as well. Are you suggesting that my evidence can't prove his innocence?"
"Or are you doubting the evidence I gathered?"
"That's not what I meant," George hurriedly replied.
Their unit's first-level police supervisor was currently vacant, and Ockham, as a second-level police supervisor, could potentially be promoted to that position at any time, making him the highest authority in their unit. George, on the other hand, was just a detective, how could he dare to oppose Ockham?
"Release Mr. Wang!" Ockham's voice was stern.
George gritted his teeth, feeling very unhappy but also helpless. He turned to one of his subordinates and said, "Release him!"
At the same time, he had a bad feeling about Ockham's sudden intervention. Did Wang Chao have some close connection with Ockham? If that were the case, he was in deep trouble.
As his subordinate brought the keys to unlock Wang Chao's handcuffs, Wang Chao spoke firmly, "You can't unlock them."
With a powerful aura emanating from him, Wang Chao sent the subordinate flying back, and the keys fell in front of him. He then kicked the keys toward George and coldly stared at him, saying, "Chief George, you brought me here, so it's only natural for you to release me and apologize to me."
The keys lay silently at George's feet.
"Are you going too far, Wang Chao!" George said angrily.
He had already compromised by letting Wang Chao go. If he personally unlocked Wang Chao's handcuffs and apologized, it would be a humiliation for him. How could he continue to lead his subordinates after that?
"Is't too much? Chief George, you took money from Bernard and locked up an innocent person like me. Now you should release me; isn't that normal?" Wang Chao retorted.
Ockham maintained his composure and spoke coldly, "George, did you take money?"
George's expression turned ugly, and cold sweat drenched his forehead. He felt his heart sink to the bottom of his chest.
It was over!
How could he explain this?
Facing Ockham's icy gaze, George panicked. He was sweating profusely, and his heart was pounding erratically.
It's over!
Everything is over!
If Ockham finds out about the bribe, he's finished, maybe even facing jail time.
Thinking quickly, George said, "Mr. Ockham, it's all a misunderstanding. Wang Chao is saying this to make me release him."
On the way back from escorting Wang Chao, George had gone to the bank and transferred over a million dollars into his account. If Ockham checked, he would be caught for sure.
In his explanation, George quickly picked up the keys, smiled at Wang Chao, and said, "Mr. Wang, I'll unlock your handcuffs now."
As he approached Wang Chao, he whispered, "Mr. Wang, I've agreed to your demands. Please do not reveal my secret, okay?"
He was genuinely panicking now.
If Wang Chao insisted on exposing him, Ockham would certainly investigate thoroughly. Even if Ockham did not delve into it, he would still hold George's life in his hands, and he would never find peace again.
At this moment, all George wanted was to keep Wang Chao quiet and figure out his next steps.
"I told you, you would regret it. Now, do you believe it?" Wang Chao uttered coldly.
George's expression became even uglier. It was not just regret; he felt extreme regret.
If he had known about the connection between Wang Chao and Ockham, he would not have dared to treat him like this, even if he had a hundred guts.
"Shit, Bernard has ruined me!"
In his mind, George cursed Bernard's entire ancestry. However, on the surface, he still forced a smile and uttered to Wang Chao, "I believe it, I believe it."
"So, can you please forgive me and let me go?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBefore he finished speaking, Wang Chao had already slapped him across the face.
The immense force sent George sprawling to the ground with a five-fingered mark and a burning pain on his cheek, a trace of blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.
Witnessing this scene, everyone present was taken aback.
Even Ockham was stunned.
No one had expected Wang Chao to be so direct and unfiltered, slapping George without any hesitation.
"Wang Chao, you!"
George covered his face, stood up in anger, and glared at Wang Chao with extreme fury.
Slap!
Wang Chao slapped him across the face again, coldly saying, "The first slap was for your discrimination against us Asians!"
"This slap is for your corrupt practices, trading justice for money, and taking innocent lives!"
"Wang Chao, you'd better not go too far. Do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
George's face was red with anger, and he gritted his teeth, staring fiercely at Wang Chao.
Slap!
Wang Chao struck him with another slap, sending George sprawling to the ground again. He uttered coldly, "This slap is for your arrogance and tyranny!"
George's head was buzzing, and his face was excruciatingly painful.
The flames of anger surged through his mind, destroying his rationality.
His eyes turned scarlet with rage, and he pulled out his sidearm and pointed it at Wang Chao, shouting, "You bastard, I'm going to kill you!"
To be slapped in front of everyone!
If he did not reclaim his dignity, would not he be mocked by his subordinates in the future?
"Bastard, stop!" Ockham's expression changed drastically.
He wanted to intervene, but it was too late. With a loud bang, George pulled the trigger aimed at Wang Chao.
