Anything For Her

Chapter 588

The officers were all people with ideals and ambitions. The reason why they came to the SWAT team was also that they wanted to serve the country.

How could they feel at ease as they watched their beloved country be brought to its knees like this?

The law enforcement officers truly wanted to help.

However, it was also obvious that determination or willpower alone could not solve everything.

Eustace could only feel bitter at not being a more capable individual.

When Eustace walked out, he received a call from Felix.

“I need you to come to this location,” said Felix, without waiting for Eustace to respond. He knew that Eustace was a good person and that Tristan wanted to cultivate his abilities. As such, Tristan thought it was best to let him watch the interrogation process.

With Tristan around, the interrogation was going to be a piece of cake.

“Very well!”

Eustace naturally knew who had called.

In fact, he wanted to insist on going over himself earlier, but he did not have the guts.

Now that they had personally requested his presence, Eustace no longer had reservations. He immediately drove over to the specified location.

Eustace had never imagined such a place to exist in Jipsdale.

When he saw the vast array of interrogation tools inside, he was stunned.

Eustace was far from inexperienced in such matters, but the interrogation equipment in the room was like a whole new world to him.

Such a place is meant to be hidden from the world. If Mr. Tristan wants me here, is this a sign that he trusts me?

Felix was not surprised when he saw Eustace taking in his surroundings with his mouth agape. Anyone who came here for the first time would exhibit the same response.

All except for one person, of course.

When Sophie was here previously, she did not seem fazed by this.

“Don't you worry, Eustace. Since you trust us that much, we're not going to let you take the fall alone,” said Felix reassuringly. Now that Tristan had decided to get involved, things were definitely going to be for the better.

Meanwhile, S had been brought into the interrogation room already.

This time around, Tristan was going to be conducting the questioning personally.

As such, Felix and Eustace could only stand by outside and watch.

S crossed his legs in his seat and looked at Tristan gleefully.

“There's no need to bother. No matter what you ask me, I'm not going to answer them. I know nothing. If you want to torture me, go right ahead,” said S nonchalantly.

Tristan said nothing. All he did was pull out a cigarette from a nearby pack and light it.

Seeing that Tristan was in no rush to question him, S frowned warily.
The officers were all people with ideals and ambitions. The reason why they came to the SWAT team was also that they wanted to serve the country.

This stranger had taken the trouble to bring him all the way here. Surely he was not going to just let S sit and watch as he smoked?

After lighting the cigarette, Tristan took a drag.

“Are you sure you won't cooperate?” asked Tristan mildly after a long silence. The chilliness of Tristan's voice made S shiver despite the warm weather.

S could feel a domineering aura radiate off the body of this man.

“Who the hell are you?” asked S. He had never seen Tristan before and was starting to grow anxious.

“My name is Tristan Lombard,” Tristan replied coolly. “You had best give me the answers I want. Otherwise, I'll soon have you begging me to end your life. Dying is easy, but not getting to die when you're suffering? That's where the real fun is.”

S was clearly rattled by this.

He had not anticipated a personal interrogation by Tristan Lombard.

There were many rumors circulating about this man abroad, and each of them cautioned against messing with him.

Having noticed S' expression, Tristan did not hesitate and motioned for Eustace and Felix to come inside and help.

“There are many types of tools here. I don't know what he likes, so why don't we test them all out once? Whether or not he survives will be up to him entirely.”

Tristan had never liked choosing.

Since he could not decide, he thought to use each one once.

S was suddenly yanked off his seat and brought closer to the table. Given that he had not seen most of the equipment before, S was clearly shaken.

When he was being interrogated by law enforcement, the officers dared not use torture methods on him. However, nobody could tell Tristan what to do here on his territory.

In fact, he had free reign of the situation.

“Eustace, are you just going to stand there and watch me be tortured? This is clearly an abuse of force! This is illegal!” S was aware of what sort of person Eustace was.

The police officer was a law-abiding person who always went by the book.

He was definitely not someone to act without engaging in the right protocols.

“I apologize. For the sake of Chanaea, however, I think I have no choice but to allow the use of force,” replied Eustace, shaking his head. After all, what right did S have to negotiate his way out of this?

Eustace merely stood in a corner and watched as Tristan ripped apart S' mental defenses bit by bit. When S was truly worn out, Tristan also used hypnosis on him.

Tristan used these methods so adeptly that nobody could compare to him.

There was only one thing on Eustace's mind. Regardless of what happened, he could not afford to cross Tristan. Otherwise, he would certainly suffer terribly before he died.

After getting the answers they needed, Tristan had Felix send S back to the holding facility.

The whole interrogation did not even take two hours.

“Mr. Tristan, since we've gotten our answers, I should be off,” said Eustace. He still had other loose ends to tie up.

This case was far from over.

They still needed to track down the mastermind and retrieve the antidote. Otherwise, the virus was going to spread even further and possibly mutate.
