The Established Siblings of the Pack

“Alright, stop fighting, you guys.” Kingsley blew a smoke ring as he continued impassively, “Since you

guys are taking the initiative, I’ll give both of you the opportunity to confess.”

As Kingsley’s words washed over them, Jonas nearly spat blood in anger. “You!” Initiative my *ss!

We’re clearly forced to do so or else it’s death, alright?!

Kingsley stood up and tossed his cigarette to the floor. After squashing the cigarette with his foot, he

ordered Lancer and Hades, “Take them to separate rooms and interrogate them separately.” Then, he

turned to Jonas and Karl and warned in an icy voice, “If there is any discrepancy in anything you say,

both of you will die!” As he spoke, he gave off a chilly, murderous aura, which he naturally adopted by

having slaughtered his way through countless battles and the numerous body counts.

Both Jonas and Karl paled as they shuddered with fright. At this point, they had suffered from a mental

breakdown. These two men who used to be comrades had gone through suspicion, betrayal, division

and hostility within this little matter of time with Kingsley. Now that they were going to be interrogated

separately as prisoners, they had completely lost all of their psychological defenses. As a result, they

would reveal everything they knew without the need for further rigorous questioning.

As expected, Hades and Lancer came back with the results of the interrogations after only half an hour.

In Lancer’s office…

“Ares, both of them have confessed. Everything they said matches up; there are no discrepancies.”

“Tell me what they’ve confessed.”

“The ‘Earthworm’ spy team has five members in total. Their leader has a code-name of Stork, but his

real name is unknown. Apart from these two prisoners, the other two team members are also working

as a pair, but they don’t know what kind of missions are being carried out,” Hades explained. Then, he

added, “They get in touch with Stork via one-way text messaging. In other words, they could only get in

touch with Stork when Stork texts them. Stork had only contacted them once before to tell them to meet

up at a cafe named Thinking Cup Coffee in the city’s north. It was there that Stork tasked them with

renting the warehouse in the urban village.”

Kingsley frowned slightly. “Is that all?”

“That’s all for the time being.” Lancer placed the interrogation materials on the desk. He added

respectfully, “Ares, Sweoyans are not only very cunning, but they are also cautious and suspicious by

nature. Apart from that, their espionage activities are highly organized and airtight. It’s already

considered huge progress that we’re able to obtain such information. And besides, we can look forward

to arresting Stork at the cafe named Thinking Cup Coffee.”

“What are you gonna do? To ambush the cafe?”

“Yes.” Lancer nodded. “Judging from Stork’s meticulous way of doing things, I’d say it was definitely not

by chance that he chose the cafe as their rendezvous. I dare say that he’ll definitely show up there

once again!”

Tapping the desk gently with his finger, Kingsley argued thoughtfully, “But all our men have strong

military vibes. I reckon he’ll be alerted as soon as he shows up.” Then, he looked up at Lancer and

suggested, “How about this? I’ll give you the contact information of Kenny Shane, Jarett Cole’s top

strategist. Just give him a call for his cooperation in arresting Stork.”

“You mean to say, we are getting the underworld involved in this?” Lancer had some misgivings,

though. “Can people like them be trusted?”

Kingsley smiled. “Those at the bottom rung of society often have a stronger sense of justice. And

besides, there are both good and bad people in the underworld, so you can’t tar all of them with the

same brush. As long as you give them enough benefits while deterring them enough at the same time,

their loyalty will be unimpeachable. All you need to do is make up an excuse and declare that we only

want him because he owes us money. It’s fine as long as you don’t let them know too much inside

information.”

“Yes, Boss! I got it!”

Having instructed Lancer, Kingsley turned to Hades and asked, “How is it going with The Anonymous—

the hacker organization?”

“I’ve asked The Anonymous to start tracking the spying website again,” Hades replied in a grave voice.

“But Ares, what you predicted last time was right. The Sweoyans have strengthened the website’s

firewall, so much so that even The Anonymous has trouble breaking through it.”

Kingsley pondered silently for a moment after listening to Hades’ report. “I see. Have The Anonymous

increase their progress as much as possible. At the same time, map out the plan to capture Stork. Just

work along both lines and make sure that we don’t lose our clues.”

“Yes, Ares!” Lancer and Hades replied in chorus.

At this moment, Lancer suddenly recalled something. “By the way, Boss,” he said, “I heard a few days

ago that Andrew Kean, the eldest son of the Kean Corporation’s owner, seemed to be searching for

Boris Oakley everywhere like mad. Could he have something to do with those spies?”
