After Kieran left his place, he sprinted towards the police station in the shadows.
He needed to know if there was a secret passage under Shuberg's destroyed hideout.
If there really was a secret passage, then Kieran would be able to confirm his suspicions.
Of course, Kieran could not rule out the possibility that Shuberg had used it for other purposes.
He would need Kieran to confirm his suspicions though.
Kieran's place was not that close to the police station.
Although they were in the same district, one was in the south, while the other was in the north.
Still, with Kieran's full speed, 20 minutes was more than enough for him to see the outline of the police station.
Kieran did not enter the police station right away.
The appearance of the mastermind behind all this, Evan, made Kieran even more cautious.
Even though his suspicions had not been confirmed, if they were true, then the mastermind had schemed to obtain the wealth that the Church of Dawn had accumulated over a thousand years. Whether it was his identity on the surface or his arrangements in the dark, it was not something that a new player like Kieran could compare to.
For example, he had planted his own men in the police station!
"Bastard! Damn bastard! "
Why did the other bastards, other than that bastard Shuberg, have them as well? "
Deputy Leschuder's angry roar entered Kieran's ears.
Deputy Leschuder's angry roar entered Kieran's ears.
Kieran's eyes shone brightly.
It was not just to allow the army to enter the city, but to create chaos!
If it was just to support an agent, then there were a lot of agents before Kieran's eyes.
Deputy Leschuder's angry roar continued.
Kieran did not rush into the police station. Instead, he waited outside.
He wanted to ask in a more secretive way.
Chief John and Deputy Leschuder were the best candidates for the job.
Both of their offices were on the second floor, right next to each other. Climbing up to the second floor was a piece of cake for Kieran.
However, just as Kieran was about to make his move, a man walked out of the police station.
It was Carl!
Kieran recognized the young policeman at first glance, even though he had taken off his uniform.
Kieran caught up to the tired girl.
Carl's destination was clear.
Single dormitory provided by the police station.
This was one of the few benefits of being a police officer. Of course, after getting married, they still had to rent or buy their own house.
It was still too early for Carl.
At least, he didn't consider it in the short term.
At the very least, he had to get through this period of time.
When he thought about the disappearance of "Blackhand" Jimmy last week, and the events that happened in the last two days, even a young man as energetic as Carl was a little overwhelmed.
He had only rested for less than ten hours in the past three days.
This was also the reason why he was ordered by the deputy sheriff to rest during the busiest time of the day.
"What I need is a brave lion! Not a sleepy worm! '
The deputy's words made Carl happy.
The young policeman took these words as encouragement.
As a matter of fact, that was the case.
The fact that the stubborn and inflexible Leschuder could say something like that was praise in itself.
Carl went back to his room and threw himself on his bed.
Just as he was about to fall asleep, a voice called out to him.
"Carl!
Mr. Kieran? "
Carl quickly woke up and got into a vigilant stance. When he saw Kieran standing in front of him, he couldn't help but cry out in surprise.
"What are you doing?"
Carl looked at Kieran with a puzzled expression.
He couldn't understand why Kieran would appear in front of him like this.
"Something happened! I have to be discreet! "
Carl was willing to believe Kieran's words because of his identity and the help he had received from Kieran.
"Then why are you looking for me?"
Carl wasn't stupid. He knew that Kieran had not appeared in his dormitory in the middle of the night just for a chat.
"Did you find the secret passage in Shuberg's base?
Yes, it's a long one. It leads to the next block! "
Carl said honestly.
"It leads to the next block?
How long did it take for Shuberg to occupy that base? "
Kieran was stunned. The length of the secret passage made him think of more things.
"A week ago! When 'Blackhand' Jimmy went missing! "
Carl answered instinctively.
After saying such words, Carl was stunned.
The young officer suddenly thought of something.
A secret passage that led to the next block was not something that could be built in a short period of time.
Ten weeks might not even be enough to complete it, let alone a week. That was way beyond the time it took Shuberg to build the base.
"Mr. Kieran?"
Carl looked at Kieran.
"So you were prepared for this?"
Kieran didn't answer. He thought about it for a while before asking, "Did our Deputy lead a team to clean up the other gangs?"
"Yes! After Shuberg was taken care of, the Deputy wanted to catch all the other gangs in one fell swoop!
"However, those guys have homemade explosives just like Shubok!"
And it seems like they know our movements like the back of their hands! Just like last night! "
Carl was a little hesitant.
But in the end, he voiced out the doubt that had been in his mind ever since Shuberg's ambush had failed.
There really was a traitor!
That was Kieran's first reaction when he heard Carl's words.
Then Kieran started to reevaluate Evan's forces.
After all, it had only been a guess, but now it was confirmed.
"What happened?"
Carl couldn't help but want to ask for an answer when he saw Kieran deep in thought.
"Something bad has happened!"
A lot of people are involved!
So, Carl, I hope you can keep this a secret. You can't tell anyone that you didn't see me. You went into a deep sleep when you got back to the dorm! "
Kieran looked at Carl seriously.
The man instinctively wanted to say something, but in the end, he nodded.
"Very well, Mr. Kieran!"
Carl said in a serious tone, as if he was making an oath.
Then, Carl spoke again as if he had thought of something.
"Mr. Kieran, there's one more thing … The chief hasn't appeared for a whole day!"
"What?"
Kieran was stunned.
"The chief didn't show up at the station on time this morning!
The deputy chief also sent some men to the chief's house, but Mrs. Adams said that the chief hasn't been home for a week!
"Although something like this has happened before, this time …"
Carl's face showed worry as he spoke.
"I understand!
John must have been dealing with something urgent and didn't have time to inform you guys. I'll go check on him! "
Kieran comforted Carl.
"Remember our promise!"
After reminding Carl one more time, Kieran quickly left the single dorm at the police station.
When Kieran walked out of the dorm, his face turned gloomy.
Something had happened to Chief John!
The moment Carl said that the chief had been missing for a whole day, Kieran had already guessed it.
As for what had happened?
Kieran knew the answer.
After all, when the two of them had parted yesterday, Chief John had said that he wanted to gather more people to investigate Shuberg's case.
"Damn it!
The enemy's influence is bigger than I thought!
I hope it's just house arrest, not … "
Kieran didn't want an honest man to lose his life because of this, even though they hadn't known each other for long.
...
Guntherson looked at Kieran as he returned to the dorm.
Kieran's serious face told Guntherson that things were not as simple as they seemed. Things must be heading in an unpredictable direction.
"How is it?"
However, as a Guardian Knight, Guntherson did not panic at all. Instead, he asked calmly.
Guntherson had been through a lot.
He was used to staying calm in the face of everything.
He knew that panicking would not help him in any way.
"Please wait a moment!"
Kieran walked up to Lushan, who was still unconscious, and woke him up with cold water. "Did these self-made explosives come from Evan?" Kieran asked straightforwardly.
"Yes!"
Lushan answered cooperatively as he looked at Swarko's body and Kieran's cold eyes.
"That should be it!
Shuberg's backer is the same person as Evan! "
After knocking Lushan out with a karate chop, Kieran told Guntherson his suspicions.
Right away, the former Guardian Knight frowned.
"An army?"
Guntherson knew very well how terrifying an army could be. Even he could not ignore the hundreds and thousands of guns, let alone the cannons that were even more powerful than guns.
It was not something a human body could withstand.
Countless of his friends and colleagues had used their lives to prove this point.
"We need a plan!"
Guntherson said.
"Yes! We can't fight an entire army! "
Kieran agreed with the Guardian Knight's words. While he was thinking, he said, "But we also have our own advantages. The thing that that bastard wants the most, the wealth that the Church of Dawn has accumulated for thousands of years, is in our hands!"
