After interrogating Cecil, the captain gained a rough understanding of Gaspar's character. If the police behind him hadn't been relentlessly pursuing, Gaspar would surely have released the victims, made a quick buck, and then fled.

Brimming with confidence, he started strategizing after seeking approval from his superiors. The Jacaster police force continued to close in, but they had to be careful not to press too hard. Based on the direction Gaspar was escaping, they were able to roughly pinpoint the buyer's location. Consequently, they coordinated with local law enforcement to close in.

After Gaspar had sold the victims, some pursued to rescue the captive, while others kept a close watch on the surroundings. As soon as Gaspar showed up, they immediately moved in for the arrest.

The authorities took trafficking very seriously. How could they let a big shot slip away after finally catching one?

In the end, Gaspar couldn't escape and was caught squarely by the police.

Following the interrogation, Gaspar confessed to his involvement in several kidnapping and trafficking cases, including Lenora's case.

Only then did the captain realize that the crime was related to Richie.

Gaspar was very scrupulous. From his initial interactions with Richie, he had guessed that Richie was a fugitive. During their initial meeting, he jested with a smile, "Do you plan to keep hiding out here, or are you looking for a chance to run after this?"

Both were people with a warrant on their heads. Richie didn't warn Gaspar, but he also didn't and simply replied, "Of course, I'm finding an opportunity to escape."

Later on, Richie received a phone call.

say much

The old phone was faulty, often leaking sounds. Gaspar had traveled all over the world, so he was particularly attuned to accents. As soon as he heard the voice on the other end, he could tell the accent was from Gornburg.

The captain immediately got in touch with the police department in Gornburg for a joint investigation.

By the time they returned to Jacaster, it was already five in the evening. After providing their statements at the police station, Zachary escorted Lenora home.

Sophia was not around as she had been away on a business trip with a celebrity for the past couple of days, still unaware of Lenora's kidnapping.

Zachary slipped off his coat, heading straight for the kitchen. He opened the fridge and glanced inside. "What do you want to eat? I can go out and buy the ingredients." Lenora licked her lips and hesitated for a moment. "How about we order takeout?"

She didn't want him to leave and leave her alone at home.

Zachary was fixated on her rosy lips. "I'll request for the ingredients to be delivered to our doorstep."
