Chapter 408 Second-Class Citizen
“That’s right.”
Kaze nodded.
Derrick lowered his head. “Let me welcome you to the Southend precinct.”
Isaac felt chills down his spine.
Color washed off his face.
Isaac wondered who the young man was for his boss to personally greet him.
Agnes’ eyes widened.
It appeared she had never known her son-in-law.
“You’re too kind, Captain Maverick.”
Kaze added indifferently, “My brother-in-law is in your custody at t moment. He might have done
something, but I don’t know the full story yet. Vice Captain Oceanid here believes we aren’t rich and
powerful enough to even step into the precinct. He told us to come here, but he wouldn’t allow
visitations. He said we need to cough up half a million dollars to make a supposed assault go away.
“My question for you is, are civilians without wealth and influence second-class citizens? Apparently,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwe don’t even have the right to
know the truth.”
Kaze did not raise his voice.
Yet, his words yielded power.
Derrick broke out in a cold sweat.

“You are mistaken, Mr. Lee. We have no such rule in the precinct. a matter of a handful of rotten
apples.”
Derrick turned and looked daggers at Isaac. “The nerve of you, Isa Who gave you the right to turn
people away and extort them for money?”
“Captain, I-…”
Isaac could not refute Derrick’s accusation.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Lee. I didn’t know-”
Isaac looked at Kaze in a fluster.
“Captain Maverick, can I see my brother-in-law now?”
Not wanting to hear Isaac’s excuse, Kaze interrupted him from finishing.
“Sure. I’ll take you there now.”
Derrick shot Isaac another angry look before leading the way.
“What’s going on, Kaze? Why is the captain afraid of you?” Darcy whispered to Kaze as they walked
inside.
“He’s not afraid of me. He’s afraid of Don,” Kaze replied.
Don was fearsome among the Lilyrose police force.
During the last incident involving Kaze, Don dismissed a top- performing officer.
His reputation as the Grim Reaper of Crime lived on.
Anybody would feel their spine tingle and blood run cold at the ring of his phone call.
“Oh, I should thank Chief Braders. He has helped us a lot.”
Everything made sense to Darcy now. She knew Kaze and Don v friends.
When Darcy was brought away for questioning, Don came to the
rescue.
Don even drove them home.

Soon, they met Sky and his friends in the holding cell.
“There you are, Kaze. Tell them to let me out.”
Kaze was a knight in shining armor to Sky.
Sky did not even notice his mother and sister.
Agnes did not feel comfortable about the situation.
Kaze was only good at bragging. Yet, her son had faith that Kaze would save him.
Still, the previous scene in front of the precinct gave her second thoughts. For once, she held her
tongue.
“Shush! Why are you trying to get out when you got into a fight? Yo should be detained for a few more
days.”
Darcy glared at her brother before turning to the officer on duty. “Did Sky injure the other party badly?
Will my brother get a jail sentence if charges are filed against him?”
“It’s not that bad. A group of youngsters got into an altercation over a girl. The young men started it, but
your brother fought back. There are a few cuts and bruises, but nothing serious. The minor injuries
won’t justify jail time,” the police officer responded.
Derrick saw red. “Isaac, what’s this half a million dollars to avoid jail
