Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1863

Just as everyone thought Nathan would slam the door on Zero and put him in place, Nathan agreed to comply.

And there was clearly a reason why he was cooperating with the police. Arthur was Channing city's mayor, and he was also affiliated with Clifford.

It was plain as day that Arthur was getting at him on purpose. If Nathan chose to just let him off the hook without teaching him a good lesson, he would not know when Arthur would mess with him again in the future.

The company reached the police station after a short ride.

As Zero ushered Nathan into the interrogation room, a few other police officers went in after

him.

Zero asked his men to take notes as he sat down across Nathan. “We'll be taking your statement during this interview. Please state your name, gender, age, and address.”

Nathan could not help but laugh at his formality. “Are you seriously taking me for a criminal?”

Zero slammed the table and bellowed, “Who do you think you are, Nathan Cross? You might be someone important, but that was the past. You're already stripped of your position. Don't you know that it's a serious crime to kill someone? Do you know what the penalty for homicide is? You might go to jail or even get a death sentence!”

A scornful smile broke out across Nathan's face as he looked Zero in the eye. “Even if I'm not the General of the North anymore, who are you to question me?” “Well, you violated the laws in my prefecture. Besides, the mayor asked me to look into this himself. Do you think I'll just let you do whatever you like?” Zero asked in a challenging tone.

“I might not be the General of the North anymore, but I'm still an army officer with a military rank, and just in case you forgot, I'm a general in rank.” Nathan cautioned him as he leaned forward, “Deputy Captain Yorick, I really don't think you have the right to interfere with the army's affairs.”

Opposite him, Zero and the other officers suddenly found themselves at a loss for words.

It was true that Nathan was no longer the commander-in-chief of the North Army and that he was no longer a man of position in the army, but they totally forgot that Nathan still had his

military rank.

In other words, he was an army officer who retained his military rank as a general.

Even if he was just a member of the army without any power to deploy soldiers, the police were still not in the position to meddle with his business.

All military affairs were managed directly by the Security Department within the army.

Realizing he had overstepped the limits of his authority, Zero suddenly became fidgety.
