The guardian's sword by Taking Cigarette novel Chapter 1837

Nirina took Dwayne to the commander-in-chief’s office.

Once he entered the office, Dwayne nodded and bowed before obsequiously cottoning up to Nathalia.

Nathalia did not take kindly to Dwayne.

He asked directly, “I heard Onyx Dragon Gang is vaguely involved with the sheriff’s department. You even defended Onyx Dragon Gang. Is that true?”

Hearing this, Dwayne’s expression immediately changed as he shook his head violently. “No! Definitely no! Commander Milos, I don’t know where you heard this rumor, but it’s outrageous! Someone created this rumor. It‘s all made up…”

“Oh, tell me what‘s going on then,” Nathalia was asked calmly.

Dwayne pulled out two envelopes, respectfully put them on Nathalia’s desk, and spoke. “Commander Milos, here’s what happened. Two of our sheriffs in the sheriff’s department are indeed involved with Onyx, the head of Onyx Dragon Gang, so Onyx told everyone that he knew people in the sheriff’s department and that the sheriff’s department has his back, but it was only the two sheriffs in the sheriff’s department who are close with him.”

“Mayor Lewis asked me about it earlier, and I found out about it after looking into it. I’m so angry. I didn’t expect anyone in the sheriff’s department to be associated with criminal organizations! So I fired those two sheriffs. These are their files. You can have a look at them.”

Nathalia opened the envelopes, flipped through them, and set them aside.

He did not think it was that simple. Maybe the two sheriffs were just scapegoats put up by the sheriff’s department.

However, now that all the blame had been placed on these two sheriffs, there was nothing Nathalia could say. Besides, the city defense army’s commander-in-chief did not have authority over the sheriff’s department. It was under Mayor Quentin’s jurisdiction.

“You’re strict, and I hope you can always keep this up.” Nathalia smiled as he handed the two envelopes back to Dwayne.

After Dwayne left, Nirina asked, “Commander, do you really believe him?”

Nirina nodded and said, “I thought so too, but it’s too late to regret it now. After this incident, the sheriff’s department will be careful in the near future. The people in the sheriff’s department associated with Onyx Dragon Gang are likely to go dormant and stop communicating with Onyx. There’s nothing we can do even if we want to investigate.”

“Yes, it seems we gotta take our time with this,” Nathalia nodded.

Nathalia could not create a rift with the sheriff’s department over Onyx Dragon Gang. It would affect the relationship between the city defense army and the sheriff’s department. After all, the sheriff‘s department and the city defense army were both Dorodo ‘s armed forces, one handling internally and the other externally.
