If it wasn't William, then who could have stolen the proclamation? Seth asked Riley, "How long has it been since the robber left?"
Riley trembled and said, "About twenty to thirty minutes. I'm not sure, but I'm sure it wasn't long."
Seth ordered his men, "Lili, get me all the surveillance cameras. I want to know where the robber went. Hurry up."
"Yes, sir." After Lili made the call.
Seth stared at Riley and asked, "Tell me what you know, Riley. Otherwise, you'll be in jail for the rest of your life."
Riley, who was already scared out of his wits, stuttered and confessed everything. Seeing that Riley had spoken, Ben Gaetz had no choice but to tell him what he knew. Finally, William's words had worked.
Ben Gaetz thought to himself that if William was the mastermind, William wouldn't have let him live. Ben Gaetz knew a lot about William, and letting him live would be detrimental to William.
Now, he also wanted to know who had been hiding in the dark and keeping an eye on him. He told Ben Gaetz about his suspicions and even told Ben Gaetz about how he tested the robbers. In the end, Ben Gaetz said that these people might have been watching him for a long time. Maybe he was already being watched when Ian came looking for him two years ago.
At this time, Agent Lili suddenly walked in and whispered something to Seth. Seth exclaimed, "What? How can there be no clues at all?"
"Yes, sir. The enemy is very experienced in anti-reconnaissance. We only found a burned truck with a lot of listening devices, but we didn't find the hard drive. It must have been taken away. All the clues are gone."
This was going to be tricky, as it was not going to be easy to catch up with a bunch of experienced veterans who had been plotting for a long time. Only now did the Special Task Force truly believe that there were some secret clues about the treasure on the back of the Declaration of the Founding of the Nation. Otherwise, there would not have been so many people wanting to get their hands on it.
Seth's face darkened. It seemed that he was going to be in big trouble. If he couldn't find the proclamation in three days, he believed that his boss wouldn't go easy on him. He would definitely be used as a scapegoat.
He didn't expect to encounter such a situation when he was about to retire. This made Seth very angry. He ordered his men, "Handcuff Ben Getz and Riley. We'll go back to Washington first."
After his men handcuffed Ben Gaetz and Riley, Seth clenched his teeth and said to Ben Gaetz, "Ben Gaetz, you'll be in jail for the rest of your life, you bastard."
William pretended to be angry at Church so that Church, who was following him, would not notice anything. On the way back to Washington, he kept his eyes closed and ignored Church when he spoke to him.
After returning to Washington two hours later, Sedes had no evidence to detain William. Looking at William entering the hotel, Sedes ordered his men with a gloomy expression, "Keep an eye on William Devonshire 24/7. I want to know his every move. Although we don't have any evidence, he's still very suspicious."
"Understood." His subordinates replied and a few of them followed William into the hotel.
Seth covered his face and asked Church, "What do you think of this matter?"
Church pondered for a moment and said, "Although everything we have shows that it has nothing to do with William, I have a feeling that all of this has something to do with William.
Seth, you've never dealt with foreign affairs, so you don't know much about William. But I know a lot about him. William may be young, but he's definitely a ruthless person who will do anything to achieve his goals.
He spent so much time and energy looking for the treasure, but he didn't seem to care about the whereabouts of the founding of the nation. This is very unusual. It feels like he's deliberately trying to clear himself of suspicion. "
After hearing this, Lily asked doubtfully, "But the information we have shows that William never wanted to steal the founding of the nation. Dr. Abigail has also confirmed William's statement."
"That's what I suspect about him. William may not do it himself because he's worried about us, but he definitely wants to see the founding of the nation stolen. Lily, if you were William, would you do it yourself or hire someone to do it?" Church said.
"Doesn't that mean that William has been watching Ben Getz for two years? But that doesn't make sense. Two years ago, William Devonshire was only 18 years old. He was still a high school student and had no money. How is that possible?"
Seth was also puzzled. "What if William only started watching Ben Getz recently?"
Everyone thought for a long time and had to shake their heads. Seth sighed and said, "Sigh, although we all know that William is very suspicious, we have no evidence. Everything needs evidence. If we arrest William Devonshire for no reason, the media will definitely not let go. If he turns around and causes a foreign dispute, the higher-ups and England will definitely tear us apart."
Everyone had no choice but to drive back to the Special Task Force. It was now past one o 'clock in the morning. The tired agents drank coffee and looked at the surveillance footage in a daze.
When William returned to the hotel, he suddenly felt uneasy. He knew that this was his intuition telling him that there was danger. After sitting on the sofa for more than an hour, William went through everything several times, but he still couldn't figure out what went wrong.
This made him very frustrated. He opened a bottle of whiskey and stood in front of the window and took a big gulp. What went wrong? Looking at the street in front of the hotel, William suddenly thought of something when he saw the car parked on the street.
Damn it, that car parked outside the archives had a whole set of listening devices and receivers.
If that car was found, he would become even more suspicious. If that car belonged to another gang, it wouldn't have been parked outside the archives. It would have been driven away long ago.
William put down the bottle in his hand and thought, Hehe, fortunately, I have a cheat. Maybe this bad thing will turn into a good thing.
He turned and walked into the bathroom. He scanned several times with his mental strength and didn't find any monitoring devices. He thought to himself that the portal finally had a use.
William was still very cautious. He didn't directly drive the portal into the small car because he didn't know if the Special Task Force had already thought of this loophole and then ambushed around the small car, waiting for someone to take the bait.
Church, who was watching the video in the Special Task Force, suddenly shouted, "I got it. Wireless surveillance has a distance. Whether it was William or someone else who was watching Ben Gaetz, then he must have a receiver for eavesdropping. Otherwise, the eavesdropping device alone wouldn't be able to transmit for many meters. Lily, look at the surveillance footage and see if there are any cars following Ben Gaetz to Pittsburg.
Seth, let's go to the archives and see if there are any suspicious cars around the archives or if there are any suspicious residents recently.
Hurry up, I hope the evidence hasn't been taken care of.
