Chapter 18: Andrew
Inner City Police Department.
Xavier, escorted by several soldiers, arrived at the interrogation room of the police station, ready to be questioned by the commander inside.
At this moment, he was undoubtedly a little puzzled, because what he was doing was like that of a prisoner, although he was nominally a witness, and the soldiers reacted politely, but faintly, he could still hear their whispers.
"Oh my God, see, this is the man who fought the cloaked assassin in the central square!"
"No wonder he looks so fierce, shouldn't he be a dangerous person?"
"If you look at that square, it's all in ruins now. ”
Several times, Xavier wanted to go over and confront them, when did he look fierce!
Also, was it his fault that the sorceress made it, and what did it have to do with him?
All kinds of inexplicable accusations made Xavier's thoughts uncontrollable, but he still forcibly suppressed himself, not wanting to cause any conflict.
But for a moment, he regretted that he shouldn't have stepped forward to fight the cloaked assassin?
If you don't go...... Maybe there won't be so much.
But it won't be him, it won't be Xavier.
In the midst of his thoughts, he sighed silently, refocused his energy, and entered the so-called interrogation room, only to find that the commander inside was actually an acquaintance - the captain of the special forces before.
Dressed in a black uniform and with a mask on his face, the one who appeared during the misunderstanding between Xavier and the Soldier Captain.
Of course, Xavier didn't see his appearance at the time, after all, he wore a mask, and now he was barely recognizable by his voice.
Under his mask, he has a delicate appearance, a bit of a feeling of small fresh meat in his previous life, except for the scar on his right eye, which adds a little masculinity to him.
And the captain, who did not deny the fact that he had seen Xavier, smiled at him:
"I saw you again, it seems that the soldier was not wrong, you are indeed a dangerous person. ”
"Isn't it the duty of a citizen to be brave enough to do what is right, and isn't it more important for you, as a police officer, to encourage such behavior?" retorted Xavier with a calm face.
"yes, so we didn't arrest you either, and now it's just small talk. The special forces commander squinted his eyes and smiled, making the scar on it look hideous.
"But then again, we don't seem to know each other's names, which isn't polite, so let's get to know each other first. Without waiting for Xavier's response, he said his name to himself: "I'm the leader of the Imperial Inner City Special Operations Team, Andrew Campbell, what about you?"
"Xavier. ”
"Well, Xavier, that's a pretty good name. Andrew casually admired, "You are the former captain of the village of Reston in the 8th Division of Gournia, and you have been recommended by Baron Liszt to come here to prepare for the knightly competition, am I right?"
"That's right. Xavier pretended to be calm, but he wondered in his heart, why did the other party know his identity so quickly?
"You must be wondering why I would know. Andrew continued to squint his eyes and smiled, "Our special forces are not weak, and you know the young lady of the Bettinne family, right? I heard that she is now in the church of Saint-Cecil. ”
"Are you talking about such a large amount of things, is there any intention?" Xavier couldn't sit still now, and he kindly helped them attack the assassins, and as a result, he had to be thoroughly investigated!
And Caroline, if this is any threat, Xavier won't accept it!
Still, he did not show his anger obviously, but said it calmly and without emotion.
"Don't think of us like that, Mr. Xavier. Andrew hurriedly waved his hand, "You also have to consider our position, there are so many dangerous people in and out of the capital every day, if we don't investigate it well, won't we be able to ensure the safety of the people?"
"I don't know if you can really keep people safe. Besides, was that captain of the soldiers also sent by you to inquire about information?" Xavier suddenly thought of something and asked him.
He now began to wonder if many of the things he had experienced had special forces spies in them.
"Well, that's just his stupidity, but it's thanks to him that we can quickly learn who you are, Mr. Hero of Reston Village. Andrew shrugged his shoulders and added, "What's more, without that information, we wouldn't have been able to determine if you were an accomplice of the Cloaked Assassin, and you should thank us for doing so." ”
"What do you mean. Xavier was puzzled, "I've helped you deal with him, and you still say I'm an accomplice, is this possible?"
"Well, you can also pretend. Andrew suggested a possibility, "Maybe your fight was faked at all, and your real purpose was to help him escape." ”
"Don't you think that's a bit of a problem? Mr. Andrew. Xavier couldn't help but ask, "That cloaked man has the ability to teleport in space, why didn't he just teleport away?"
"You've succeeded in asking the question. Andrew showed an admiring expression, "As you just said, he could have left through the spatial transfer the moment the assassination was successful. ”
"But if he didn't do it, it means that he probably couldn't do it!
"You may not know that before this assassination, the cloaked assassin had already successfully assassinated him once, but not by someone from the military department, but by a well-known landowner in the inner city. ”
"That's why, you can see a lot of deployments in our special forces recently...... We let him run anyway. ”
"But from the last time, as well as from this incident, we can all find that there is at least a certain time gap between the first and second spatial transfers of the Cloaked Assassin. ”
"Therefore, we suspect that the Cloaked Assassin's spatial movement is limited, unable to move long distances in a short period of time, and has a certain cooldown time. ”
"So we thought you might be his accomplice, or one of them. You may have fought him just to buy him time, but once we have your full information, we'll rule that out. ”
"After all, at the time of the first assassination, Mr. Xavier, you hadn't yet arrived in the capital......"
"The story you tell is very beautiful. Xavier looked at Andrew and took a sip of the tea on the table, "Well, just since I know so much information, and you've found out that I'm not his accomplice, then what are you looking for me for?"
"Didn't I tell you a long time ago?" Andrew put down his teacup and smiled, "We need all the information about him, and you, sir, are the only ones who have ever fought against him." ”
"Will you help us?"
