Hearing Marshall’s words, Katherine nodded, “Remember to tell me once you dig something.”
Marshall grinned, “Rest assured. I’ll let you know first.”
After having the breakfast, Marshall drove Katherine to the store and left.
Katherine looked so much better than before.
Seeing that Marshall dropped Katherine off, Margaret just pursed her lips, “He is sure sweet to you.”
Katherine went to land a hand, “What’s wrong? Aren’t your boyfriend good to you?”
Margaret looked away, “He’s great.”
Then she paused and repeated, “He’s certainly great to me. I should be content.”
Katherine didn’t think too much and started getting busy.
Marshall then drove to a warehouse that was under the Grants’ Company.
Located in the outskirts, the warehouse hadn’t been used for years, so it was all empty.
It was in a big yard and was only guarded by one person all year long, but he had been transferred to another warehouse last night.
Marshall was stopped by a guy when he just arrived at the storehouse, but once he saw it was Marshall, he immediately stepped aside.
Marshall drove the car into the yard and was instantly surrounded by a few minions, “Sir.”
Marshall nodded, “Has he told the truth yet?”
One of the minions responded, “Nothing valuable.”
Marshall then walked straight into the warehouse.
The warehouse was flooded with the smell of dust and stew.
A man was lying on a wooden plank on the ground.
The man had been stripped of his clothes and only item left on his body was his shirt. His two tattooed arms were revealed and his left one was bandaged.
Marshall then approached him.
The man wasn’t really asleep. He was just resting his mind and opened his eyes when he heard Marshall’s footsteps.
He seemed a bit distressed when he saw Marshall.
The man looked ghastly pale and suppressed his voice, “I’ve really told you everything and didn’t hide anything.”
Marshall squatted down and stared at that man, “Weren’t you quite tight-lipped yesterday?”
As they were pretty close to each other, Marshall could clearly see the emotions in his eyes. He didn’t seem to be lying.
The man then continued, “I really didn’t know much anyway and wanted to tough it out. After all, I’m gangster and has to keep my integrity. I thought that you wouldn’t torture me so much. I’ve literally told you everything I know. Please set me free. I’m badly injured in my left arm. I have to go to the hospital.”
The man had been a thug for years and was held in custody many times before for causing disturbances.
He really had no use to the society.
Marshall was still smiling, “Set you free? Do you have any idea what you could have done if I weren’t there yesterday? Do you really think that I will just let you walk if you don’t tell me something useful?”
Marshall then pressed the spot that the man had been bandaged up.
The man grunted suddenly and looked he was in real pain.
Marshall said lightly, “Did the person behind you tell you why did he/she want you to knock that girl down? What kind of result dose he/she want?”
Then man was rapidly panting, but he grinded his teeth and didn’t say anything.
Hands in the pocket, Marshall stood up in a minute and drooped his eyes, “Well, you must have enjoyed this. Proceed.”
Marshall then just turned around and left the warehouse.
Seeing that Marshall was out, one of the minions asked, “Sir, what should we do about this man?”
Marshall answered coolly, “Lock him up here.”
