Jasper Shaw was a very low-key person; Miller had only ever thought of him as a wealthy entrepreneur from Zenthia.
But he never imagined that his grandfather was the famous Kane Shaw.
"But what does this have to do with Chloe Sinclair?"
"Haven’t you realized the relationship between Jasper Shaw and Chloe Sinclair by now? With him protecting her, we don’t stand a chance."
Just as Miller finished speaking, the sound of wailing police sirens rose from downstairs.
Miller didn’t move a muscle, seeming completely unsurprised.
In contrast, the rest of the people in the laboratory panicked.
Seeing this, Miller simply walked to the window. He extended one hand. When no one opened fire, he then stood in the middle of the window frame.
He shouted, "I surrender."
Soon, all twenty-eight people in the laboratory were rounded up.
As the leader, Miller was taken to a separate interrogation room.
When the police questioned him, Miller suddenly burst out laughing. "I started researching controlled nuclear fusion even before Joel Quincy of Zenthia. From age twenty-two to thirty-eight—for sixteen whole years—that’s all I’ve studied. I understand controlled nuclear fusion better than anyone! So what if I faked a device? What about that little liar from Zenthia, Chloe Sinclair!"
"The Mark Device is already the limit of human achievement! No one will be able to surpass its range for the next twenty years. You’ve all been fooled by her!"
That’s right. From the very beginning, Miller believed his imprisonment was just the result of Chloe Sinclair stumbling into things by sheer luck.
"A hundred years ago, those Muggles in Zenthia couldn’t even afford to eat, let alone conduct nuclear research!"
The interrogating officer was of Asian descent. Hearing Miller’s words, she didn’t feel the slightest bit of anger. Instead, a trace of pity appeared in her eyes.
"Mr. Miller, you may possess academic degrees that others could only dream of achieving in a lifetime, but your cultural literacy is truly lacking."
