All Her Secrets By Chestnut

Chapter 688 Swann the Legendary Detective Lorcan was very displeased with Catherine's attitude, but the moment he thought of his uncle's advice to avoid provoking her, he suppressed his anger.

"Catherine, we suspect you are involved in the recent data leak at the Styre Laboratory. Please cwith us to assist in the investigation," he said.

Catherine had already heard the news from Ultan and knew Lorcan's purpose this time.

"Let's go," Catherine said, walking ahead confidently without a hint of fear.

As Lorcan watched her walk away, he couldn't help but feel a bit shaken. “Is she just extremely confident and unafraid, or does she feel her connections are strong enough to protect her?" he wondered. This was the first the had seen someone like her, who would be taken to the procuratorate for questioning but remained so composed.

Regardless of the type of vehicle, it had to stop at the gate of the procuratorate, and one had to get into the building on foot.

After the driver parked the car, Lorcan got out first and then opened the door for Catherine, who got out easily without being handcuffed, given her special status. If she had been handcuffed, Marshall probably wouldn't have let them out of the gates of Styre University.

As they passed the security office, the security guard greeted Catherine when he saw her. "Oh, hello, Miss. What are you doing here?" "I'm here for a visit!" Catherine cheerfully replied.

The security guard was momentarily stunned, and the subordinates accompanying Lorcan looked at each other in shock. One of them asked, "Mr. Fitzpatrick, this is unbelievable. Did the Cold-faced Demon just greet Catherine? Are they familiar?" Lorcan looked at his subordinate, equally puzzled. "You're not the only one who could see things." The security guard was nicknamed the Cold-faced Demon because of his peculiar and uncompromising personality. He had never shown friendliness to anyone during the years he had worked at the procuratorate. It was said that he was a veteran who had been to war. He refused to be idle at home, so he was assigned the job of guarding the gate of the procuratorate.

Due to his peculiar temperament, he had been given the nicknCold- faced Demon.

Lorcan had been at the procuratorate for three years and had never seen him greet anyone. Today, the Cold- faced Demon greeted Catherine, which was really strange.

Watching Catherine confidently striding ahead, the subordinate who had just spoken couldn't help but start discussing again. "Sir, why does this feel a bit weird? We don't seem to be arresting a suspect but rather trailing behind her like her lackeys, aren't we?" And it wasn't just one lackey. It was a whole group of them.

The subordinate's observation caught Lorcan off guard. As he thought about it, it did seem to be the case. Catherine exuded an intimidating presence, not at all like someone being brought in for questioning, but more like a leader walking in front.

After settling Catherine in the office, Lorcan instructed his subordinate to inform several superintendents from within the procuratorate. Given the seriousness of the recent data leak, it was more appropriate to have them conduct the investigation.

Lorcan had his subordinate bring in Rian Healy, who was known as an expert in polygraph testing. Rian had been at the procuratorate for twice as long as Lorcan, handling numerous cases and never encountering a suspect who didn't tell the truth under his interrogation.

Last time, Catherine was taken away by Branden. This time, Lorcan intended to have Rian go head-to-head with Catherine and see if she could remain as composed under Rian's questioning.

Rian arrived at Lorcan's office soon after. "Lorcan, where is she? Taketo her!" he demanded.

On his way, Rian had already heard from Lorcan's subordinate about the deeds of this leaker and was itching to meet this formidable opponent personally.

"Mr. Healy, cwith me," Lorcan responded. Having learned much from Rian, he always saw Rian as his teacher.

Lorcan led Rian into the interrogation room and pointed ahead. “Mr. Healy, she's right there!" The moment Rian looked ahead and saw the “leaker,” a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he stood frozen in place.

Noticing the change in Rian's expression, Lorcan immediately furrowed his brow. "Mr. Healy, what's wrong?" Pointing to the imposing figure sitting in front, Rian asked, "The leaker you mentioned is her?" Lorcan nodded, not understanding why Rian was so surprised.

Before Rian could respond, a cold voice rang out. "Rian, long tno see!" Rian snapped out of his daze and stepped forward, shaking hands with Catherine. "Catherine, it's been a while. I never thought that I would see you again here." Lorcan watched as the two familiarly exchanged pleasantries, and his suspicions continued to grow. "Mr. Healy, what's going on here?" he asked, perplexed by the apparent familiarity between Rian and Catherine, as well as the security guard at the door, who also seemed to know Catherine well.

Rian looked at him with a smile. " Lorcan, you've always wanted to meet Swann, the Legendary Detective, haven't you? Now that she's here, why do you suddenly not recognize her?" "Swann the Legendary Detective?” Lorcan repeated inwardly, instantly stunned, unable to process the information in front of him.

There had always been a mysterious figure within the procuratorate, someone with an enigmatic background and elusive whereabouts but with incredibly astute investigative methods. Particularly, her analysis of suspects' psychology was remarkable, often deducing the characteristics and mental state of the perpetrator directly from the crscene. No case she handled was left unsolved; she always brought swift closure. However, when Lorcan joined the procuratorate, this detective mysteriously left for a more secretive department. Despite her departure, her legend persisted.

There were no records of this detective within the institution, and information about her was classified at the highest level of confidentiality. Lorcan could only gather information about her from the work notes she left behind and from Rian, who had worked with her. They were the only sources of information about her. Lorcan had admired this detective for a long time, always hoping for a chance to witness her brilliance. But he never imagined that this detective would be Catherine.

"So how could she be the leaker?" Lorcan asked himself in his mind.

"} Rian couldn't help but laugh at Lorcan's dumbfounded expression. " Hah, Catherine, look at how clueless this guy is He actually brought you in as a suspect. Why didn't Piaras tell him? Oh, I forgot to tell you, this guy is not only a member of the procuratorate but also Piaras's nephew." Piaras, the current head of the procuratorate, had previously been Catherine's immediate superior and had been in constant contact with her.

Lorcan had been skeptical, but upon hearing this, he suddenly understood what was going on. Piaras had warned him, but he had been stubborn, trusting only his own judgment and ignoring Piaras's advice, wasting all this time.
