The Legendary Man Chapter 402

Unauthorized

“You want me to answer his question?” Jonathan scoffed without turning around to spare the officer a glance. “He doesn’t even have the authority to ask!”

He then strolled off without a care.

“Stop right there!” the officer hollered from behind. He even turned to his superior and asked, “Sheriff, should we bring him back here by force?”

“What do you mean by force?” The sheriff’s brows drew close upon hearing the former’s words. A furious glare marred his face as he snapped, “Do you not have anything better to do? He’s a victim in this situation, not a suspect. Get your attitude in check!”

“Y-Yes, sir!”

After getting put in his place by Roger, the officer instantly became as tame as a hare.

“Connect to the police force’s intranet, and investigate Jonathan Goldstein’s identity at once!” Roger ordered. He had been a sheriff in the police force for many years, so this was not his first rodeo, nor was he an inexperienced rookie.

After all, how could he offend someone that could not care less about upsetting the four prominent families?

“Yes, sir!”

The officer instantly whipped out a tablet, logged into the police network, and typed Jonathan’s name.

Minutes passed before the tablet went pitch black.

Only one bold, red word flashed on the screen: Unauthorized!

“S-Sheriff, what’s going on?” The officer scratched his head while raising his brows in shock. He asked, “Is my tablet malfunctioning, or is there something wrong with the police force’s intranet?”

“Nonsense!” The sheriff was quick to thunder, “Don’t you understand what ‘unauthorized’ means? Are you illiterate, or do you not understand the Chanaean language?”

“Sh-Sheriff, I—”

Before the officer could say anything, Roger interrupted, “Shut up!”

Just then, a chill crept into Roger’s heart, causing it to tremble vigorously.

Even our police force isn’t authorized to run an investigation on his identity. Does it mean he’s someone terrifyingly powerful?

The other officers were too startled by Roger’s sudden anger to even let out a squeak. However, it was then that the latter’s phone rang.

“Hello?” asked Roger.

“Are you the Sheriff of Vleshire Harbor’s police station? I’m the chief superintendent of Gronga’s police force, Finnigan Langley. Were you trying to look into someone named Jonathan Goldstein earlier?” An elderly’s voice came from the phone. After hearing this, Roger’s spine straightened on the spot like he was facing a more powerful being. “Yes, Chief Superintendent Langley.”

“You can forget about it. No one in all of Gronga’s police force, not even I, have the authority to go through his personal files. Only the governor of Gronga has that right. Oh, right, is he also a victim involved in the bombing of Velarium Hotel?”

“Yes, Chief Superintendent Langley,” replied Roger, whose face had paled drastically ever since he heard the words, “chief superintendent.”

No way. All of Gronga’s police force has no authority to access Jonathan Goldstein’s files? What kind of monster is he?

At that thought, cold sweat suddenly formed and glided down his back.

Fortunately, he had not intentionally made things difficult for Jonathan earlier. Otherwise, he knew he would lose his position as sheriff in no time.
