One of the police officers brandished a police baton and said, "If you continue to disobey orders, I'll beat you within an inch of your life."
Yohann was not scared in the slightest by his threat. "My father is the top dog of the Security Police Board. You better release me right now or I won't show you any mercy."
"Who the hell is causing all this racket?"
The voice of a middle-aged man resounded from outside the interrogation room.
One of the officers exited the room and reported while wiping the sweat off his brow, "Mr. Morrow, it's one the men we apprehended. He refused to obey our orders and even started a fight with our men."
Gideon Morrow entered the room. "Who the hell would be brave enough to do that?" he demanded furiously, his eyes falling upon the young man who had just landed another blow on a police officer.
In a deep voice, Gideon said, "You've got some nerve trying to stir up trouble in a place like this."
Yohann lifted his head after landing yet another blow on a middle-aged officer. "Mr. Morrow!" he called out excitedly.
"Yohann?" exclaimed Gideon in surprise before quickly regaining his composure and asking, "What's going on here?"
"He was arrested for suspicion of being involved in a physical altercation. We were going to interrogate him," one of the older police officers replied, momentarily stunned when he realized Yohann and Gideon knew each other.
Yohann complained, "Look, Mr. Morrow. They were about to abuse their authority to punish me unjustly."
Gideon looked around the room and noticed that the officers had indeed prepared several punishment tools. The most alarming part was that they were going to use these tools on Yohann.
Gideon's face instantly darkened. "What's going on here? Who gave you permission to use these tools on him? Get rid of them right now!"
