Dragon Master novel Maximilian novel Chapter 838

"No need for that, because we already have our suspect standing in front. Go and compare his fingerprints with those on the branch." Pearson said, pointing at Maximilian.

The situation and outcome clearly went against Maximilian. As the man of Pearson brought a device and forced Maximilian to press his fingerprints on it, it stunned everyone that his fingerprints were exactly identical to those on the branch.

The atmosphere was thick with tension. Both Pearson and Jude became cautious and pointed their guns at Maximilian, especially Pearson, who was trembling and feeling lucky to survive after talking with the murderer. 

For Jude, she now thought that what Pearson had said made sense to some extent. She looked at Maximilian, silently and tensely, and thought that she was cheated by the man standing in front, "How dare you, liar!"

"Wait, there is a misunderstanding between us, and I could explain it. Just give me some time." Said Maximilian, feeling that he should have just kept away from this shit. Though he was not the one who started everything, it was still not easy to make things clear.

Pearson turned to Pearson and said proudly, "I told you that he was not right!" While he got no compliment except a look of disgust and irritation from Jude.

"You have the right to remain silent, sir. Now, you need to come with us back to the police station, and you will be released provided that your original suspicion is cleared. " Said Jude in a tone speaking to a man who committed a crime.

"Alright, I understand, madam." Maximilian answered with a bitter smile. However, he was not in fear because the truth was that he did nothing wrong.

Jude was a little surprised by Maximilian's obedience since she had thought that this man would not just surrender so easily. Pearson looked at Maximilian and grinned evilly, "Good boy. Now, get your ass in the car!"

Maximilian said nothing and got into the car obediently. Grace, standing not far away and seeing all that happened, didn't know what to do and felt guilty for causing such a situation.

In the police station, Maximilian was sitting face-to-face with Jude, and Jude asked in a slowly but serious tone, "Now, sir , we're sincerely asking you to tell us the truth. And you would regret it if you dared to lie again."

Maximilian had no choice but to tell her his experience how he had saved Grace. Looking at the eyes of Maximilian, Jude could feel his sincerity and honesty, which made her think that possibly he is innocent.

However, everything needed proof, and it would be quite unprofessional for her to believe a suspect's words without any practical evidence. Pearson squinted at Maximilian and sneered, "I bet that you're absolutely lying again! Only a fool would believe that you took down a man with a single branch, which can only be seen in some sort of stupid movie!"

Pearson's words reminded Jude of this fragile testimony. It was impossible for her to believe that someone could ever throw a branch and stick it in a man's shoulder from a long distance.
