Chapter 234 Security Bureau Division Seven

Talia shot Vera a sharp look, silencing her with just a glare. She turned her icy gaze to Robin and commanded, "Come with us!"

Tobias and another detective, Dustin, moved instantly, positioning themselves on either side of Robin.

Vera's laughter abruptly died.

She looked at Talia and the two men, sensing they weren't bluffing, and they seemed ready to act against Robin. "W-What are you guys doing?"

Robin nudged Vera behind him, his expression unphased as he raised an eyebrow at Talia, who wore a cool, aloof look. "What's this about?" he asked.

Talia replied icily, "Yesterday, at the Brookhaven Martial Alliance's celebration at Harmonfield Hotel, you had a dispute with the Quinns. And overnight, the entire Brookhaven Alliance dissolved, and the Quinns vanished without a trace." Her eyes narrowed. "We suspect you're closely related to these events. Come with us now for further investigation."

Vera's eyes widened, her shock visible.

Only now did she realize Talia and the two men didn't have the look of gangsters. They appeared more like public officials.

The entire Brookhaven Martial Alliance and the Quinns were gone in a single night?

According to the woman's words, Robin was the one responsible for the annihilation of the entire Brookhaven Martial Alliance and the Quinns.

Caught off guard, Vera's gaze shifted to Robin's imposing figure. Her heart raced.

Who is this man? He's able to take down an entire martial alliance overnight!

If that were true, he must be incredibly powerful!

Alice and Zachary had also frozen in place. Now they were noticing Talia, Tobias, and Dustin.

From the way they carried themselves, these three were likely law enforcement agents from some official department.

It was clear they came after Robin because of the Brookhaven Martial Alliance yesterday.

They must have evidence of Robin's crime in their hands.

A slight smirk crossed Alice's lips.

She stepped forward, her tone dripping with mockery. "True, he's Robin Ramsey. I was at Harmonfield Hotel yesterday too. He had a confrontation with the Brookhaven Martial Alliance ..." "Alice! What are you talking about?" Vera intervened.

Alice shot her a cold, mocking smile. "Vera, don't cover for him. Do you know how serious the crime Robin's do if the Brookhaven Martial Alliance is really ... gone?"

"What are you arguing about?" Talia snapped, cutting them both off with a withering look. "Did I ask you to speak? Silence!"

She turned back to Robin, her voice steely. "Let's go. We've verified everything that happened yesterday at the celebration. There's no question. You're involved in their disappearance." Robin scoffed, unimpressed. "Who do you think you are? Get out of my way."

Talia was momentarily taken aback.

In her two years on the job, this was the first time Talia had encountered someone like Robin.

Most suspects either resisted arrest in a fit of desperation or simply complied and came quietly for questioning.

Yet here was Robin, looking down on her as if he were the one in control, as if she were beneath him.
