"I understand
Keagan took the order and walked towards Alkaid.
In the underground dungeon half an hour later.
Selon was sitting on the bed without a scratch. He had his eyes closed and was resting.
He was recalling what was going on when he was taken for questioning.
He thought that his answers were flawless and he didn't show any problems.
However, somehow, he had a bad feeling about something.
'What is Ward up to?' wondered Selon.
Just as he was trying to work out the answer, the door to the room was opened by someone from the
outside all of a sudden.
Selon slowly opened his eyes and saw Keagan walking into the room with his men.
"We meet again, Mr. Shepard." Keagan then asked indifferently, "Have you thought about howto
answer to Mr. Lopez?"
Selon's voice was calm. "Mr. Pratt, I’ve already told you
everything I know. What else do you want me to say? If you wanted to prove someone guilty, you would
need evidence nowadays, right?"Keagan snorted. "Mr. Shepard, looks like you're very good with words."
"I will only speak the truth." Selon didn't move at all and his voice was also calm. "The Shepard family
is only one of the small medical families in Norlon. We're nothing compared to the power of the base.
Even if we were to do something, we can't keep it a secret from you. It's not that I won't do something
such as throwing a straw into the wind, it's just that the safety of my family outweighs everything else."
Keagan couldn't help but clap when he heard those words. "I have to admit, you are very clever. There
are no flaws in what you've just said. If it weren't for the fact that I've got some clues, I would have
been fooled by you."
"Oh?" When Selon heard that, he cocked his brows. "Does Mr. Pratt have evidence of the Shepard
family betraying you? I wonder what it is."
Keagan didn't answer Selon's question. He just raised his hand and placed a stack of photos in front of
Selon. "How about you take a look at this, Mr. Shepard."
"What's this?" Selon asked curious as he picked the photos up.
When he saw what was in the photos, his eyes widened in shock.
Beth was tied tightly to a pole. She was wet through as well.
It seemed that someone was pouring water on her. Her long hair was stuck to her face and she was
paler than ever.
Beth was completely unconscious and the clothes she was wearing were all stained red. There was a
pool of blood below her feet and she looked very weak.
Selon raised his head and his voice was shaking. "You...what did you do to her?"
Keagan replied with a smile, "We didn't do anything. We just invited her to answer a few questions.
What I didn't expect was that she wouldn't tell us anything. Mr. Lopez became angry, so he punished
her a little."
"She's injured and you call that giving her a little punishment? " Selon's face darkened and he was
infuriated. "My sister doesn't know anything. She has an unstable temper. Did you think people of my
family would tell her something so important?"
"The more unlikely it seems the more likely it is. There's nothing for me to lose by giving it a try just in
case, right?" Keagan said meaningfully.
Selon was so angry that his eyes darkened.
He knew that the person in the photo wasn't the real Beth and was Alkaid in disguise, but this made his
heart ache even more.
He felt that his heart had been grabbed by someone and was in a lot of pain. His heart was aching
more than ever.
Keagan felt pleased with what he was seeing. He then continued, "Mr. Shepard, you look a little worked
up. Now... do you have anything that you want to tell me?"
