Salute To The General
Chapter 2004

Chapter 2004

The mere mention of the incident at the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor got Freddy to sweat even more.

Naturally, he didn't dare to refute, so he quickly confirmed Nathan's words. "Yes, that's right," replied Freddy, "What a coincidence. We meet again, Mr. Cross."

Both Dennis and Glen turned to Freddy in surprise.

They know each other?

Dennis was downright stumped. His eyes had a complicated glow on them when he asked softly, "You know this guy, Director Loran?"

Freddy didn't even bother responding to that.

Instead, he hurried over to Nathan and extended both hands with a smile. The former acted like a subordinate who had just seen his superior and was buttering Nathan up like crazy. "I didn't expect to see you here, Mr. Cross," said Freddy, "Looks like this is just a misunderstanding between allies."

Nathan shook Freddy's hand and replied with a skin-deep grin on, "Well, we shared a meal together, Deputy Director Loran, so I guess we can pass as allies. But him? He's not my ally now, is he? Moreover, he just proudly announced that today is the day I die. Aren't you here to destroy me on his behalf?"

No one else knew who Nathan truly was, so no one cared.

Freddy, however, knew that Nathan was with the Chief Military Governor. The former even strongly suspected that Nathan was actually the Chief Military Governor himself. Why else would

General Sage be so respectful and protect the guy to that extent?

Hearing Nathan called him an ally got Freddy so excited that he almost jumped.

He quickly answered, "Yes, you are right. I will definitely deal with the matter beautifully and give you a satisfying response, Mr. Cross. My brother is responsible for the peace in this region, and I will have him settle this issue strictly and without playing any favors."

Nathan replied calmly, "I look forward to it."

Freddy turned around. His gaze had turned evil and sharp when he glared at Dennis.

"Dennis Turner, you had better confess everything and tell me the truth about what happened. If you don't, I will have Glen take you to the police station. They have plenty of ways

to get you to talk."

Dennis was flabbergasted to hear that. He blurted, "Director Loran, a-are you serious?"

Slap!

Freddy slapped Dennis across the face as soon as the latter finished speaking.

Freddy growled angrily, "Do I look like I am joking? Let me warn you about something. This man is my superior, so you better confess all of your crimes now. If you don't, you will not even get a chance to regret your decisions later."

Director Loran's superior!

Dennis was stunned.

So was Tyranno.

Even Glen was staring at Nathan in astonishment. This is so strange. The guy is so young, so how powerful can he really be? Why is my big brother so afraid of him?

Dennis stared at Nathan in disbelief. He finally realized that in addition to being a good fighter, Nathan was also a powerful political figure.

Freddy was already a powerful ally, and Nathan was his superior. Just how f*cking powerful is this guy?

Dennis looked terrible. His limbs were numb and cold because he knew that he was done for.

With no other option, he confessed everything.

That included how he lusted after Penny and Kylie and sent his men to steal their wallets. He also shared how he pretended to be the good guy, who helped them retrieved their wallets, to trick them into trusting him. He even shared his shameful and malicious intentions

Penny and Kylie couldn't help cussing, "Jerk."

Glen announced grimly, "Dennis Turner, now that you have confessed your crimes, we will officially apprehend you. Please follow us back to the station to settle the paperwork."

Dennis turned pale. He had his head lowered when he replied, "Understood."

Glen turned to Tyranno and added, "You and your men are coming with us as well."

Tyranno didn't think that he would be dragged to that extent, and he was tempted to cry. "Understood," said Tyranno.

Freddy grinned and turned to Nathan. "Mr.

Cross, are you satisfied with this arrangement?" asked Freddy.

Nathan nodded slightly and commented, "Dennis Turner abused his power, and the ripple effects can be dire. He must be punished severely. And Tyranno? He involved himself in a local fight to exacerbate the situation. He also took advantage of the tourist bus and threatened the tourists to pay a

small fortune while they were on the

road. That is despicable, and he

must be dealt with as well."

Freddy and Glen replied simultaneously, “Understood."

Dennis, Tyranno, and the others were cuffed and taken away by the police soon after.

The I_oran brothers left as well.

When they walked out, Glen couldn't help asking Freddy, "Who is that guy?"

Dennis and Tyranno both leaned in to eavesdrop

on them, despite being cuffed by the police.

They were both curious about who Nathan really was.

Freddy replied, "All you need to know is that he works in the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor. You don't need to know anything else. The bottom line is that he is not someone we can afford to mess with."

The Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor!

Dennis and Tyranno were both stunned to the core.

They finally understood why Nathan was such a skilled fighter. He works for the Chief Military Governor! No wonder we got defeated.
