Chapter 582
Carlo Monde stared at Reign Labenz, and an icy look flashed across his eyes. He said in a deep voice, “Ms. Labenz, are you sure you want to go against our Tigris Insignia Army?”
“Go against
Reign’s face turned chilly. She said icily, “You guys are army personnel from the military department. Your duty is to protect the people!
“Now, you want to detain a citizen without any evidence and only based on hearsay from a felon with multiple criminal
records
“Furthermore, you were talking to us about the law just now. Now that I’m talking to you about the law, you are saying that I am going against you?”
Carlo was rendered speechless on the spot, and his expression turned even more unsightly.
Zealon Xydia’s expression was grim as well, and he remained silent.
Reign sized Carlo up from head to toe and said icily, “Sir, you led an army to capture a major felony criminal. Yet, right now you don’t even have your name or position on your uniform!
“Can I ask what is your name? What position do you hold? And what authority do you have to apprehend a law–abiding citizen of our company?
“How do I know you’re not a fake?
“Show me your identification documents and proof of authority!”
“L… Carlo was once again rendered speechless.
Zealon’s expression turned even more unsightly.
They had planned this operation in a hurry. Simply convincing Yozand Growe alone already took quite some time before he agreed to cooperate.
During the operation, Carlo and the rest only put on their armor and did not bring along their identification cards. Now that Reign is demanding that they show their identification cards, many of them could not do so immediately.
Although Zealon was shocked, he did not panic. He remained calm and said, “Ms. Labenz, if you want to check our identification documents, go ahead. We do not need to worry about rumors if we are upright. My name is Zealon Xydia, Head of the Intelligence Department of the Silver Panzer Corps. My employee number is XXXX…”
Carlo was overjoyed and thought to himself, “Well done! Mr. Xydia is really awesome. Why didn’t I think of reporting my employee number?”
When he thought of this, Carlo also announced, “My name is Carlo Monde, Captain of the 3rd Squad of the Tigris Insignia Army. My employee number is XXXX…
They were all warriors who had been fighting outside all year round. They had long memorized their employee numbers by heart, with the intention of leaving their identity behind at the point when they died!
Now that Carlo had announced his identity, no doubt he was not afraid of Reign checking on him.
“Alright. I’ll note it down.
Reign then called for her secretary again. She took out a pen and paper and busily wrote down Zealon and Carlo’s names and employee numbers before handing them to her secretary. Thereafter, she said in a stern voice, “Check their identities immediately. Also, get the legal department to get here faster.
“If they’re not here in five minutes, tell them to pack up and leave!”
“Sure.”
The secretary took the paper and immediately went to check.
Zealon and Carlo’s expressions changed slightly when they saw this.
Their employee identification numbers were quite complicated. There were alphabets and twenty numbers. Earlier, they had only recited them once, but Reign actually memorized all of them?
Surely this ability to remember things was a little strong!
“Ms Labenz, there’s actually no need to go through so much trouble

arrest warrants. Otherwise, I won’t let them take you away!” Reign said, showing no signs of relenting
She was still thinking of having a meal with Haylan after work later so that she could take the chance to get Haylan drunk Thereafter, she would c
conquer him.
It Haylan was captured by these people, wouldn’t her plan go haywire?
Putting aside the question of how it would affect her plan to conquer Haylan, it was still questionable whether Haylan could survive in one piece when he was in the hands of these people.
Therefore, Reign must not let Haylan get arrested.
When Haylan saw Reign’s persistence, he felt warm inwardly, but he could not help giving a bitter smile.
Haylan was now a member of the Dragon Team, and his status was on par with Zachary Tyler’s. He could do whatever he wanted in Lightdom City
Even Mackaye Shilton, the great commander of the Silver Panzer Corps, would have to address Haylan respectfully, not to mention Zealon and Carlo.
If Haylan followed Zealon and the rest to their premises, as long as he tossed out his Dragon Team’s identification card on the table, he would be safe and sound. Those people would still have to serve him like they are attending to an important
VIP
With this intervention from Reign, Haylan’s plan would go up in smoke.
“Actually, they can’t do anything to me, Ms. Labenz, Haylan whispered.
Reign also looked at Haylan and said in a low voice, “I know you’re very powerful. In terms of combat strength, these people can’t do anything to you.
“However, this matter can’t be solved simply by combat strength. They are the state machines. No matter how strong you are, you can’t use force to deal with these characters.”
Reign was the richest person in Lightdom City. She knew many high–ranking officials and nobles and knew the way they worked very well.
Some fawning officials might not have the capability to deal with problems, but they were the best at creating internal strife and slandering others. Even if one were a peerless hero, once he fell into the hands of those people, he would still suffer a painful outcome even if he didn’t die.
“Haylan, trust me. You can’t go with them. Staying with me is the safest decision,” Reign insisted.
“Have you ever thought that if I don’t go with them, they’ll keep their troops here to surround the premises of the Mapleturz Group? Will the corporation still be able to do business?
Haylan’s expression was solemn as he said in a low voice, “At this point, once an opponent uses this matter to create massive publicity, it will be a fatal blow to the corporation.
“The losses… could be very severe.
“If…”
“Enough!”
Reign gestured with her hand to cut off Haylan. She looked at him affectionately and said in a low voice, “No matter what happens, I will not let them take you away, even if I have to sacrifice the entire corporation.”
When Haylan heard this, his entire body trembled momentarily. He looked at Reign with a hint of shock in his eyes. The softness deep within his heart was also touched.
