Chapter 1148: Interrogation
The second young master gave these orders and went to join the research. He is good at puppet making, so he was given the job to design the mobility of the puppets for the formation.
While he went there and worked, the subordinate who he talked to, was shot down dead while he was on his way towards his peers.
Since the mobility project was completely under him, he barely came into contact with anyone else who is in charge of the nodal design and the formation design. The only person who came into contact with him while working is the First young master.
When he came back, from the research area to take some rest, he was stunned by the new changes that awaited him. The first thing is the subordinate who he ordered to do the tasks was found dead and the news came that the murders of the prostitute and the guard of the refugee area were reported by the guard captain.
The second young master immediately arranged for a meeting for the guard captain as the deaths of the two are being investigated.
“What do you mean by this?” The second young master asked as soon as the guard captain arrived.
“I am just doing my duty.”
“Of course, you should be doing your duty, but why did you add my name into the report. The guard discovered the prostitute dead and you found out that he contacted me directly to take advantage of the fact that I sneaked her out of the refugee area? When did that happen? The guard clearly spoke your name in the conversation with me.”
“Of course, he did. But Young master, after I found him dead and in the same way that woman died, I thought of something. You were sending me a message. I clearly sent him to get more benefits from you, but for that, you killed him, just like how you killed the lady for something she might have heard or seen which she shouldn’t have.
So, I decided to act on the situation to save myself. If I am not going to get benefits from doing your dirty work, I will get them by doing my proper work.
That is what I did. Nothing more, nothing less.”
“What the hell are you talking about?”
“What am I talking about? I don’t know what happened to you young master, but this method is too easy to catch on to. If you are hiding something, then do with proper men and proper methods. The death of a prostitute that you took from the refugee area and you even ordered to keep her in a separate room with a view of your choice and she died the very night.
After she died, a person comes and asks you what to do with that death and that person dies in the same way. It is a bit suspicious.”
With that, the guard captain left.
The second young master is still confused. He doesn’t know what exactly happened. He only fucked a woman and since he took so many emotions out on her, he asked her about what she wanted. She asked for a room with a view of her choice and he did as she asked.
That is the only thing that he could be sure of, the rest was completely out of his control.
And to his surprise, two hours after the guard captain left, a group of enforcement members arrived at his residence.
“You need to come with me, young master. I am the person in charge of the investigation temporarily. I want you to come with me to answer some questions.”
The Second young master didn’t even know what to say about this. But he tried his best to calm himself down and said.
“Can we do this here, I have a lot to do. I am still working on the design.”
“Okay then, you can keep on working and I will ask questions.”
With that he set up a recording crystal and started speaking.
“The prostitute that died recently, is it true that you secretly made her come here?”
The second young master’s smile stiffened a bit, but he still answered.
“yes.”
“Isn’t it against the regulations? Why did you break the rules and bring her here to your camp?”
“I was a bit frustrated and overwhelmed with everything going on here, so I wanted some female company.”
“Then, you could have gone there. Why break the rules like this?”
The second young master became silent and didn’t say anything, because the answer to that question will make him look like a small man. The answer is, ‘I just wanted to use my authority so that I could feel important because the first young master is overshadowing me’.
Even though this makes him feel small, he knew this is the reason, but he doesn’t want to expose himself. The enforcement officer stayed silent as he looked at the second young master and continued.
“Do you know that around a few hours after she left, she died? In a room that you arranged for her with a specific view. Why did you arrange a special room for her?”
“It is just the payment for her service.”
“But why are you so specific about the view of the room?”
“She wanted that view. Why is everyone so obsessed with the view of the room?”
“Well, after examining the wounds, we felt that the wounds are most likely the result of a projectile weapon shooting from a certain distance and from the angle of the wound, we can conclude that it was done from a building nearby which is part of the view you described to the guards.”
The second young master was dumbfounded for a second, but he still got himself together and said.
“I don’t know how it happened. But the view was described by that woman.”
“Then do you happen to know why she asked for a specific view like that?”
“I don’t know. I don’t even know her name, why would I know what she prefers and why she would prefer it?”
“Okay, why did the guard arrive here from the refugee area after the woman was dead instead of coming to us directly?”
“I think you should be asking that question to the guard captain. Not me.”
“I know what should question should be posed to whom. You don’t have to give me advice regarding that. Just answer the question.”
“He came to ask whether I had anything to do with the death of the woman as he didn’t want to offend me accidentally by reporting the death to the enforcement team.”
“Why would he think that?”
“I don’t know.”
“Well, I could make some speculations. It is not really a good thing to get on the nerves of the core disciple and it is definitely not worth it for a guard and the guard captain to get on your nerves for a nameless woman.”
“That is quite a speculation. But as you know it is a speculation, even though there is some truth about not getting on my nerves.”
The investigator raised his eyebrow as he looked at the young master and said.
“The guard who left this place also died just like that? Why do you think that is?”
“I don’t know.”
“Then, why is your subordinate dead too?”
“I don’t really know. I was surprised as well when I heard the news.”
“You cannot keep answering that way young master. The subordinate was ordered to deal with the issue regarding that woman’s death, according to our investigation, but he died just like that. Why do you think happened?”
“I SAID, I DON’T KNOW.”
The second young master lost his fuse as he raised his voice.
The investigator didn’t bother with him and just let him be while continuing with the questions.
“Do you know that the guard captain that visited a few hours ago died as well?”
“What?” The second young master finally showed emotion. He was shocked with disbelief written all over his face.
“The guard captain died. When he was on his way back to his post after visiting you? What do you two talk about?”
The second young master became a bit nervous and said.
“We just talked about what happened. I went to research duty after I got the news about that woman’s death. I didn’t care much. And when I am back, there were already reports made, so I asked the guard captain who made the report to get a better understanding of the situation.”
The investigator suddenly stood up and turned off the recording crystal.
“That is all for now, young master. If we need anything more, we will be contacting you.”
The second young master didn’t reply and just waited for that guy to go away.
After he left, he collapsed into his chair and started pulling his hair in frustration.
But what he doesn’t know is that this is just the beginning and he has no idea what is about to come at him.
