Chapter 602 Interrogation

Gerald parted the crowd and walked to the front.

When everyone saw Gerald coming over, they all quieted down.

When Jacob saw Gerald coming over, he heaved a sigh of relief and said, “You are finally here. I don’t

know what to do now.”

Gerald looked at the crowd. Then, he turned to look at Erik and said, “I need an explanation!”

Erik was stunned. Then, he shook his head and said, “I don’t know what happened either. I ate with

Scar at noon. I didn’t expect him to be poisoned. If there were poisons in that food, I should be

poisoned too!”

Gerald asked lightly, “There are two things suspicious. First, why did you want to stay in the Night

Watch Base instead of acting with my team? Second, you and Scar have never met each other before.

Why did you suddenly eat with him?”

Erik had also thought about these questions. So he replied lightly, “I just want to stay here. I have no

other thoughts. As for eating with him, I have heard a lot about him, so I want to know him.”

“It sounds far–fetched. It’s not enough for me to believe that you are innocent.” Gerald shook his head.

Erik was slightly stunned. Then, he spread his hands and said, “If you don’t believe me, I don’t know

what else I can do. But this is the truth.”

“It’s fine,” Gerald said indifferently. “Erik, I will give you one last chance. If you really didn’t do it, I will

apologize to you in front of everyone! Dr. Manning is the best doctor in the world. She can find out what

kind of poison Scar has gotten. Then, we will need to do two things. First, we will search your body and

see if you have any antidotes on you. Don’t doubt the current technology. Second, Dr. Manning needs

to hypnotize you! You said you ate with Scar. But no one knows whether you really ate with him or not.”

After saying that, Gerald turned to look at Erik and said, “You think you are innocent. Then there is no

problem with these two checks, right?”

“I am a member of your team, and you don’t trust me.” Erik frowned.

“It’s different!” Gerald said lightly. “My trust in you is based on Carolyn. Because you are her disciple, I

trust you. But now that something has happened, someone has to be accountable. If you really didn’t

do it, I will personally apologize to you in front of everyone.”

After saying so, Gerald’s eyes suddenly turned cold. He added, “Of course, if you did… you will have to

bear the consequences.”

“I refuse to be examined,” Erik said indifferently. “Like you, my trust in you is also based on my master.

Who knows whether I will tell the truth after you hypnotize me?”

“I will record the whole process!” Gerald said.

“The video can also be edited,” Erik said.

“Are you feeling guilty?” Gerald said again.

“It’s not guilt but disappointment!” Erik shook his head. “I thought that after I joined your team, I would

have your team members‘ trust. However, I was wrong.”

Beside Erik, Jacob frowned deeply. Jacob looked at Erik and said, “Erik, actually, I have always had a

question. Ever since you came back this time, I feel that something is wrong with you. Did someone…

threaten you? If yes, you can say it. We are all buddies. Don’t hide it.”

Jacob and Erik had been together for a few months. Thus, the relationship between Jacob and Erik

was naturally deeper than that between Gerald and Erik.

Gerald looked at Jacob and asked, “What do you mean?”

up, he Jacob slowly let out a breath and said, “Before he came to Sacramento, when I picked him was

in a straight state and seemed to have something hiding in his heart. In fact, after hearing your

questions, I also suspected that it was Erik who did it. I am not defending him. Erik and Scar don’t know

each other. Scar has been in Sin City for almost thirty years. But Erik is still young. When Scar entered

Sin City, Erik was only a kid. Their lives didn’t cross paths!”

Jacob analyzed and added, “So if Erik wanted to attack Scar, it should be that someone ordered him to

do so.”

Erik frowned and said, “Jacob, don’t talk nonsense. If you all really suspect me, then there is nothing I

can do. I can only withdraw from the Night Watch to prove my innocence.”

But Gerald said sternly, “Withdrawing from the Night Watch might not be able to prove your innocence.

Erik, you will have my word. If you are innocent, you don’t have to be afraid of being examined. If it is

as Jacob said, and you have been threatened, I will give you one last chance. Explain the ins and outs

of the matter clearly. If you explain, I may be merciful to you according to the situation!”

Erik did not expect Gerald’s attitude to be so tough. His face suddenly became gloomy.

At this time, Valery came over. Valery said with a serious expression, “His life is not in danger for the

time being. The poison he ate contains a highly toxic substance. Fortunately, he did not absorb it much.

I washed his stomach. Besides, his body is very strong and healthy, so he survived. But he will be very

weak for some time. If he ate more, he would die in a few hours.”

Hearing this, Gerald felt slightly relieved. Then, he said to Valery, “Sorry. But I need you to hypnotize

Erik and ask him what happened exactly!”

“Did Erik really do it?” Valery asked with a frown.

“Scar ate lunch with him,” Gerald said.

“I got it!” Valery nodded.

Erik gritted his teeth and said, “Gerald, I can’t accept it.”

“So many people are suspicious of you now. If you didn’t do it, why aren’t you willing to prove your

innocence? If you don’t want to accept the examination, then I will have to force you. If it is proved that

you are really innocent, I will apologize to you. Others will also apologize to you,” Gerald said in a cold

tone. “If you still want to resist, then don’t blame me for forcing you.”

In fact, at this time, Gerald already felt something was wrong with Erik.

All of Erik’s actions were linked to this matter.

Jacob looked at Erik and said, “Just accept it. This is not a big deal. You are our friend, and we don’t

want to lose you.”

Erik looked around and gritted his teeth. Then, his aura erupted. He jumped up as if he wanted to

escape.

“He has reached the super level!” Everyone, including Gerald, was completely stunned at this time.

The aura that Erik had erupted indicated that he had actually reached the super level. He was no

longer a top expert.

“This son of bitch!” Gerald cursed. At the same time, the Vital Energy in his body surged. Gerald

quickly rushed out and chased after Erik.
