The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 733

Chapter 733

–

Joe smoked his cigar and sneered as he watched the police officers attack Haylan.

All the police officers present were Joe’s right–hand men and often bullied commoners with him. In addition, they were very skilled in dealing with criminals.

With their help. Joe was confident that Haylan would be defeated.

Joe could almost imagine how pitiful Haylan would look after the beating, with a bleeding nose and swollen eyes.

Meanwhile, Haylan remained calm and didn’t even bother dodging the police officers‘ attacks.

“Bang!”

The interrogation room’s door was suddenly kicked open just as the police officers‘ weapons were about to land on Haylan. Then, an angry shout was heard. “Stop!”

Hearing the voice, the expressions of the police officers who were about to attack Haylan changed. They immediately stopped what they were doing and turned to look at the person standing by the door, shocked.

All of them knew who the voice belonged to.

Joe, too, quickly turned around when he heard the voice. When he saw the person by the interrogation room’s door, the cigar in his mouth almost fell to the ground. Trembling, Joe asked, “Superintendent, why… why are you here?”

Standing by the interrogation room’s door was a black–eyed, middle–aged man with a bulging belly and a balding head who appeared to be in his fifties.

However, the man’s gaze was piercing. He also radiated a dignified and authoritative aura that demanded respect.

Joe hurriedly stubbed out his cigar, forced a smile onto his face, and asked, “Mr. Ockham, why… why are you here?” The man was Joe and the police officers‘ immediate superior, second–class police superintendent Walter Ockham. “Why? Can’t I be here?” Ockham asked coldly.

“Yes, of course. This is your territory. Of course, you can be here,” Joe quickly answered.

Ockham walked in and scanned the scene. Ockham asked Joe, his gaze as sharp as a knife, “What law did this gentleman break for you to treat him like this?”

“Mr. Ockham, this person is Longhard Kingdom’s citizen. He’s extremely vicious and kills people like flies. He started a massacre in Massach General Hospital but refused to confess. That’s why we’re interrogating him now,” Joe explained.

“Oh, is that so? Why did I hear a different account then?” Ockham asked coldly.

“Mr. Ockham, you….” Joe was stunned.

Ockham took out a tablet and threw it to Joe as he said coldly, “According to my understanding of that matter, Haylan is the victim. He was defending himself. He’s not guilty even if he kills all those people.

“Now, release Haylan immediately!”
