Chapter 45: Arrest

It was still dark when Oreo heard a knock at the door, and he muttered twice.

"Angelyl."

"I'm up!"

Angelyl answered, and she threw on her coat and walked briskly to the door.

The people who come in the early hours of the morning are usually the people of the back three streets, and they are usually important things, which can not be delayed.

Pulling the door open, Angelyl glanced out, then said warily.

"Mr. Oreo!"

Noticing Angelil's abnormality, Oreo lifted the blanket and pulled the lamp rope down his hand hard.

With a "bang", the gas lights suddenly turned on.

Walking into the office were two uninvited guests, who quickly covered their eyes, and one of them said vaguely.

"You're Oreo Pravor?"

Recognizing the badges on their bodies, Oreo frowned slightly.

"Who are you?"

The man finally adjusted to the light in the room, and he blinked.

"I'm Sheriff Reka, and next to me is Sheriff Kathu, and we've been ordered to ask you something."

Kathu complained.

"What to talk to him about, let's catch the City Patrol Bureau first."

"Kathu, we've got to talk about the evidence."

Reka put her hands behind her back and asked first.

"So Mr. Oreo, where were you yesterday afternoon, what did you do, and who can prove your whereabouts?"

"Yesterday afternoon?"

Although he hadn't said hello beforehand, Oreo obviously knew why Reka had come, and he touched his head.

"I'm in the firm, Angelil can attest."

"Angelyl?"

Catou turned around and looked the doorman up and down, this doorman was really Angelil!

Reka also turned around, pretending to look at Angelyl as well, commenting on her head.

"You're Angelyl?"

Angelyl nodded cautiously.

"Sheriff Reka, Sheriff Kathu."

Reka nodded, changing to a serious tone.

"Who else can prove it but the two of you?"

Angelil said hurriedly.

"Our office is right at the gate of Tenth Street, and people come and go, and people on the street can attest to it."

"Is that so?"

Reka frowned and looked at Kathu, "Sheriff Kathu, is there anyone else on Back Third Street with the surname Pravor?" ”

Kathu hesitated.

"That's all I know."

Reka nodded, and stretched out her hand to beckon Kathu out.

"Is that so...... Do you think there's a possibility that the prostitutes we caught were lying, when in fact they were the murderers? ”

Kathu kept up with Reka's pace.

"It's possible...... But where exactly did the missing prostitutes go? This is very suspicious. ”

Standing by the door, Angelyl watched the two of them go away, and then said in a low voice.

"Mr. Oreo, they're gone."

Oreo nodded, motioning for Angelyl to close the door.

"Coming here so early, they must have not slept all night yesterday, it's really a bit of a nervous disease."

Angelyl sniffed and walked back to the bed.

"Shouldn't they have caught those spies, why, do they want to get those prostitutes back?"

"It's not that simple,"

Oreo shook his head, "As you can see, those spies obviously wanted to blame me, and now that there is no direct evidence that they are the murderers, I guess this matter is over." ”

Angelyl said worriedly.

"So what should we do now, knowing that Manina and the others are still in the manor......"

Oreo reclined into the blanket and chose a proper sleeping position.

"I'll let Emma bring them out, and the City Patrol will take care of the rest, it's none of my business."

Angelyl then asked.

"Why do you have to let Ma Nina and them hide, if they face each other, those people should have no reason to retract their confessions, right, after all, Ma Nina and they are real prostitutes."

Oreo shook his head, "If you dare to make waves in the Okasim Empire, those Venadas must have high-ranking officials of the Empire behind them, for the sake of Manina's personal safety, it is better to let them hide first...... Rest assured, they'll be back to Back 3rd Street safely. ”

Angelyl nodded thoughtfully.

"Then what will they do if they really can't catch the murderer."

"It's none of my business."

Oreo closed his eyes and whispered, "But I think someone will try to turn their attention to me as a way to protect those spies...... At worst, they will transfer what they have in their hands, and in short, the purpose of the Venadas has been achieved. ”

"Looks like we're going to have trouble......"

Angelyl muttered, then rolled over and fell back asleep.

Almost as soon as she closed her eyes, it was getting dark outside, and she vaguely heard Oreo saying something, but she couldn't hear it.

Oreo stood by the door and repeated.

"Angely, put your clothes on!"

Angelyl finally heard clearly, and she scrambled to get up from under the covers, and then put on her coat and pants.

"Knock knock."

The knock on the door rang again, and Oreo said impatiently.

"It's coming, it's coming, what is urging!"

Pulling the door open, he looked out with a blank expression.

There were two columns of officers standing outside the door, and Reka was at the head of the line.

He spoke softly, but in a hurried tone.

"You're Oreo Pravor?"

Oreo nodded, and seeing this action, two police officers quickly rushed out and set him up left and right.

With his back to the crowd, Reka kept winking.

"Your Excellency Oreo, on the orders of Director Eden, we ask you to go to the City Patrol to assist in handling the case."

"Assist in the case?"

Oreo looked puzzled, "There's a charge for me to help. ”

Reka said with a sneer.

"I think you're mistaken, I mean you're a suspect."

Oreo spread his hands with difficulty.

"Sheriff, what the hell am I ......"

Reka smacked, took Oreo's hat off his head, and slammed it to the ground.

"There's no point for you to be verbose here, put him in hand."

The two men obeyed, slashing Oreo's hands behind his back and shoving him into the carriage.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Reka commanded the rest of his men to rush into the office.

"Remember the testimony of those prostitutes, bring everything with you, nothing is missing."

With the sound of rummaging through the cabinets, the officers walked out of the office with a large stack of things, including Oreo's trench coat, hat, and walking stick.

Turning her head in Oreo's direction, Reka said in a loud voice.

"Be fast, don't keep Deputy Commander Dubo waiting!"
