The officers were surprised before finally reacting. They did not expect to hear that someone else was involved in this case.
"Who’s Finn?" the interrogating officer asked again.
Lyra was confined to a chair and could not move her hands and feet.
Coupled with so many officers looking at her, she felt like she was about to be buried in her fear.
She knew that she could no longer deny her crime. After all, the two videos were still circulating on the Internet.
If she denied it, the penalty that awaited her would be even more severe. Thus, the moment she got into the police car, she already made the decision to confess to everything.
At the same time, she was ready to give Finn up.
After all, the men, location, and equipment were all arranged by Finn. The only thing she did was order Finn to do that. Why should she bear the crime alone?
Finn had to accompany her as well!
Furthermore, she was Finn's angel. Even if she gave him up, he would not be angry with her.
With that thought, Lyra said with red eyes," He's a surgeon from Prima Hospital. He was the one who arranged for the six men."
"In that case, you guys go over to the hospital and bring him here," the interrogating officer said to the two officers behind him.
The two officers nodded and left the interrogation room.
Lyra's heart instantly felt better when she saw that they went out to arrest Finn.
Soon, Finn was brought to the police station.
However, he was not in the same interrogation room with Lyra. He was questioned in a separate room.
The person who interrogated him was one of the officers who arrested him. "Mr.
James, according to Lyra Madden, you conspired with her to harm Sydney Raines, and you were the one who arranged for those six men. Do you admit to this?"
Finn did not take off his white coat when he came.
His hands and feet were also confined to the chair like Lyra, but unlike her, he did not pale and tremble with fear.
He seemed to lean back in the chair, not caring at all about his current situation. He said as nonchalantly as ever, "No. I never tried to harm Sydney, let alone arrange for men to violate her. Why would I do that when I don't have a grudge against her?"
The interrogator fell silent.
Yes, when arresting Finn, the bureau had already checked his interpersonal relationships. They found that he indeed had no enmity with Sydney, so it was groundless to accuse him of harming her.
However, Lyra should not be lying. After all, she wanted to reduce her sentence, so she would not spew nonsense. Thus, it must be this man.
At that thought, the officer spun his pen and asked, "As far as we know, Lyra and you have a very close relationship. Lyra hates Sydney and wants to harm her. As Lyra's close friend, it's not impossible for you to help conspire against Sydney together."
Finn's glasses glinted fleetingly. "You're right. As Lyra's friend, it's possible that I might help her, but where’s the evidence? If you don't have evidence, then it's slander. I can report you to your superior."
The officer frowned and had nothing to say.
Yes, they had no evidence.
For a moment, he did not know what to do with this man.
Scratching his head, he beckoned to another officer beside him. "Go next door and ask Officer Miles if he has any evidence from Lyra to prove that Finn
James is an accomplice."
"Okay." The officer gave Finn a look but immediately went out.
Less than two minutes later, he came back and shook his head, indicating that there was no evidence.
The officer in charge of interrogating Finn was at a loss.
They combed through the entire case during Lyra’s arrest last night, but they did not find any link to Finn. It was only from Lyra's confession earlier that they realized that there was another person involved in this case.
In other words, if Lyra had not confessed it personally, they would never have known that she had an accomplice. However, even if they knew that Finn was involved, there was nothing they could do about it because they could not find evidence. Even the mastermind, Lyra, did not have evidence.
The officer who went to the interrogation room next door to ask for evidence earlier said, "What now? Do we continue questioning him?"
The officer in charge of interrogating Finn stood up in annoyance. "What do you think? Of course, we can't continue questioning him. Come on, let's go next door."
