As Luther stood in the Second Precinct lobby, everything around him seemed to becso unreal.
Why would he feel he had been through the sthing in the past?
Had he experienced the stense atmosphere before? Why would he have such a panicky feeling now? His thoughts, breathing,
and heartbeat were disorganized and out of control.
After making arrangements properly for the internal affairs of the police department, Officer Franklin walked into the lobby and saw
Luther was still there.
He walked up and said, "Mr. Warner, the SWAT team that had been sent out to rescue Victor just now cback, and they reported
that before Victor fell into a coma, he told them that the person who was after him was Ricky. Judging from the residual traces at
the scene, they were pretty sure he was carrying a heavy gun. There may be someone else backing him up, and the person who
has sabotaged the police system should also be him!"
"Ricky?!" Luther almost thought he heard it wrong, "Ricky? The lieutenant following Charlotte?"
"Yes, that's him." Franklin glanced at Luther. Though he wasn’t that interested in his private life, everyone in town knew that the
Warner family and the Heath family just had an engagement.
"So, Mr. Warner, I'm sorry. You cannot stay in the police station. Because you are related to the Heath family by marriage. Right
now, we don't know the purpose of Ricky's move and who else is behind the whole thing. Captain hasn't toldmuch about it
before. To avoid suspicion, you cannot be informed of any further details of the incident." Franklin said reluctantly.
"Avoiding suspicion?" Luther's eyes widened. Did they even think he and Ricky were in cahoots?

happened to Joyce." Luther said, annoyed.
"All | know ... is that Victor said that Captain and Joyce saved him together, and I'm not sure about the rest. However, according to
our analysis, since Captain was wounded, Joyce probably hid him there in order to protect him. And she would continue to lure
Ricky away," Franklin said, his face more and more serious, "Captain has previously told us that once the communication is
restored, we should immediately locate his phone and Joyce's phone and send backup immediately.”
"So Ricky's target, originally, was Joyce?" said Luther, analyzing the pile of fragmented information.
"Probably." Franklin nodded.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Warner, | can’t tell you more. Please leave the police station. We are repairing our system, and once the
communication is restored, we cannot disclose our plan to you. The reason why | have revealed so much to you is because we once
worked together in the kidnapping case. But, I'm sorry, | really can't do it this time." Franklin regrettably made a "please" gesture.
Now under such a critical situation, he did not know exactly which side Luther was on, and it was only right that he could not let
Luther know about the details.
Luther felt powerless and had no idea what to say to explain himself. He was surprisingly questioned for his stance.
He felt an inexplicable panic. If he could not even know what happened, should he just wait?
Waiting for Joyce to be in danger? Perhaps she would get killed and he did nothing at all? He could only wait to be notified of the
final outcand could not help in any way?
The key was that Joyce was now facing Ricky alone, and even Karl was not with her.
And how should she cope with that?
He was politely shown out of the police station by the officers and stood outside the gate, bewildered. With his noble status, he had
never been rejected like that. He felt powerless all over. The busy police officers kept passing him by.
