Carlo Monde stared at Reign Labenz, and an icy look flashed across his eyes. He said in a deep voice, âMs. Labenz, are you sure you want to go against our Tigris Insignia Army?â
âGo against Reignâs face turned chilly. She said icily, âYou guys are army personnel from the military department. Your duty is to protect the people!
âNow, you want to detain a citizen without any evidence and only based on hearsay from a felon with multiple criminal records âFurthermore, you were talking to us about the law just now. Now that Iâm talking to you about the law, you are saying that I am going against you?â
1. 1.
Carlo was rendered speechless on the spot, and his expression turned even more unsightly.
Zealon Xydiaâs expression was grim as well, and he remained silent.
Reign sized Carlo up from head to toe and said icily, âSir, you led an army to capture a major felony criminal. Yet, right now you donât even have your name or position on your uniform!
âCan I ask what is your name? What position do you hold? And what authority do you have to apprehend a lawâabiding citizen of our company?
âHow do I know youâre not a fake?
âShow me your identification documents and proof of authority!â
âL⦠Carlo was once again rendered speechless.
Zealonâs 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, âMs. 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 XXXXâ¦â
Carlo was overjoyed and thought to himself, âWell done! Mr. Xydia is really awesome. Why didnât I think of reporting my employee number?â
When he thought of this, Carlo also announced, âMy name is Carlo Monde, Captain of the 3rd Squad of the Tigris Insignia Army. My employee number is XXXXâ¦
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.
âAlright. Iâll note it down.
Reign then called for her secretary again. She took out a pen and paper and busily wrote down Zealon and Carloâs names and employee numbers before handing them to her secretary.
Thereafter, she said in a stern voice, âCheck their identities immediately. Also, get the legal department to get here faster.
âIf theyâre not here in five minutes, tell them to pack up and leave!â
âSure.â
The secretary took the paper and immediately went to check.
Zealon and Carloâs 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!
âMs Labenz, thereâs actually no need to go through so much trouble 1 arrest warrants. Otherwise, I wonât let them take you away!â 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, wouldnât 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 Reignâs 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 Tylerâs. 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 Teamâs 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, Haylanâs plan would go up in smoke.
âActually, they canât do anything to me, Ms. Labenz, Haylan whispered.
Reign also looked at Haylan and said in a low voice, âI know youâre very powerful. In terms of combat strength, these people canât do anything to you.
âHowever, this matter canât be solved simply by combat strength. They are the state machines. No matter how strong you are, you canât use force to deal with these characters.â
Reign was the richest person in Lightdom City. She knew many highâranking 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 didnât die.
âHaylan, trust me. You canât go with them. Staying with me is the safest decision,â Reign insisted.
âHave you ever thought that if I donât go with them, theyâll keep their troops here to surround the premises of the Mapleturz Group? Will the corporation still be able to do business?
Haylanâs expression was solemn as he said in a low voice, âAt this point, once an opponent uses this matter to create massive publicity, it will be a fatal blow to the corporation.
âThe losses⦠could be very severe.
âIfâ¦â
âEnough!â
Reign gestured with her hand to cut off Haylan. She looked at him affectionately and said in a low voice, âNo matter what happens, I will not let them take you away, even if I have to sacrifice the entire corporation.â
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.
Haylan had been plying his trade for so long and had met many women. He also had relationships with many women. Yet, this was the first time a woman was willing to give up everything for him.
The Mapleturz Group was Lightdom Cityâs largest corporation. Its financial clout far exceeded everyoneâs imagination.
The value of its assets numbered in the trillions. Such a large sum of money was sufficient impetus to prompt many people to fight for it with their lives.
In the end, Reign did not hesitate to give up all of this. She did not even hesitate to go against those in power, disregarding all consequences just to protect him.
This friendship had indeed touched Haylan deeply!
Reign was determined to protect Haylan at all costs. While waiting for the members of the legal department to arrive, she kept asking for help on the phone.
Zealon and Carloâs expressions clouded over. They remained silent, but they kept staring at Reign icily.
If not for the fact that Xander Zoran was still present, they really wanted to give Reign a big slap.
Their Tigris Insignia Army had always been tyrannical and no one could stop them from doing what they wanted. Now, they were put in all kinds of difficult positions by Reign and were totally helpless.
They felt the burning pain of humiliation on their faces.
Soon, the legal department of the Mapleturz Group and the legal team from the office of Lightdom Cityâs Invincible Lawyer led by Eric Cooper arrived.
The two legal behemoths gathered in the same hall and stood in an imposing array. The oppressive atmosphere they created was incredibly terrifying.
The strongest legal counsel had arrived!
âWho wants to talk about the law with us?â Eric Cooper asked confidently.
As soon as Eric appeared, the expressions on the faces of everyone in the Tigris Insignia Army turned very unsightly.
âImmediately summon the strongest members of our legal department here,â Zealon said in a low voice.
âSir, weâre good at combat, but we canât win on legal matters,â Carlo said in a low voice.
âEven if we canât win, we still have to fight them. If we donât bring Haylan Jaber back today, do you think Commander Shilton will let us off?â Zealon whispered.
As soon as these words were uttered, Carloâs entire body trembled. Without another word, he immediately began to call for help on the phone.
