Chapter 1778 Reported

William, the water police officer, asked in surprise, “Do you mean that a Huaxianese woman took a man on your ship to help that man cross the border?”

“Yes, that’s it!”

The burly man, Thomson, immediately nodded and said, “If I’m not mistaken, they should still be on the ship. When I get back to the dock, that woman should come to me as soon as possible. That man should stay on the ship because he hasn’t paid the commission yet.”

“Wonderful!”

William’s eyes lit up.

“That’s it!

“A Huaxianese woman is helping a man cross the border.

“It’s very likely that the man is from Huaxia!

“Although Thomson cannot tell exactly which country the man is from, there must be something wrong with that man. If he is clean, would he need to secretly cross the border?”

Thomson asked with a smile, “This can be considered an important clue, right?”

“Of course.”

William grinned and said, “However, we can’t act rashly for the time being. If that man is really the one that the higher-ups are going after, you won’t have to do such a sneaky thing again for the rest of your life.”

“What if he’s not?”

Thomson shook his head and said, “I think I’ve reported a major suspect.”

“Don’t worry. Even if he’s not the one that the higher-ups are going after, you will still be rewarded.”

William patted Thomson on the shoulder and said, “Now, we have to think about how to take action.”

Thomson curled his lips and said, “Why don’t you just arrest him?”

“We can’t.”

William immediately shook his head and said, “The man who has the higher-ups issue the wanted order must be very cunning. We can’t act rashly and alert the enemy. We must think of a complete way to catch him.”

At this point, he said, “You just said that after you go back, that Huaxianese woman will come to you alone?”

“Yes.”

Thomson nodded and said, “We agreed to set off tonight. Before that, she will give me the deposit and pay the rest of the money after arriving at the destination. But now, we’ve been banned from sailing for three days. She must want to talk to me about the deposit and departure!”

“Well, let’s catch this Huaxianese woman first.”

William clenched his fists and said confidently, “You’ll go back first. I’ll be right there!”

After their conversation, Thomson immediately returned to the dock.

Because it was late at night, Thomson patrolled the dock and then returned to the warehouse.

Just then, a figure, led by the sailors, got off the ship, quickly came to the brightly lit warehouse, and knocked on the door.

It was none other than Louise.

Opening the warehouse door, Thomson looked at Louise and asked with a bored look on his face, “What do you want?”

Louise said, “I need to talk to you.”

“Do you like to have chit-chats at night?”

Thomson chuckled and said, “Why don’t we talk in here?”

“No, thanks.”

Louise glanced at Thomson and said, “I need to know why you breached the contract. What happened here? You promised me that you would set off tonight. If you can do it, I hope my friend can leave tonight. But if you can’t guarantee it, I will take him and leave immediately.”

“Tonight?”

Thomson raised an eyebrow and immediately shook his head. “That can’t be done!”

“Okay, I understand.”

Louise nodded with understanding. She turned around and was about to board the ship to get Fang Qiu and leave.

Just then-

“However, it’s not like there’s no other way.”

Thomson suddenly said, “I have a group of friends who specialize in doing this kind of thing. If you offer enough money, maybe you can set off immediately.”

Louise turned around and said with a frown, “Really?”

“If you’re up for it, I can take you to talk to them. If not, I won’t stop you from leaving.”

Thomson shrugged and spread out his hands, looking indifferent.

Louise asked vigilantly, “Where are those people?”

“We’re all in this business. Where else can they be?”

Thomson pouted at a warehouse nearby and said, “They’re over there.”

Louise took a look and found that there was another warehouse aside, which was also lit up.

It looked like a place for people trafficking. However, if there was really such a group, why didn’t this guy named Thomson tell her about it until now?

Louise hesitated.

She noticed that something was wrong.

However, she thought that there was nothing wrong with everything in front of her.

“Forget it. I’ll come to you in three days.”

After that, Louise immediately turned around and prepared to board the ship.

Just then, a police car arrived all of a sudden.

When Louise saw the police car, her face changed. She wanted to speed up and return to the ship as soon as possible.

Unexpectedly, the police car stopped in front of her and blocked her way.

Left with no choice, Louise could only stop in her tracks and calmly prepare to deal with anything that might happen.

“Who are you?”

William alighted from the police car and walked straight to Louise’s side. “Why are you walking around the dock so late at night?”

Louise replied indifferently, “I’m a tourist here. I’m here for some fresh air tonight. Is there a problem with that?”

“Show me your ID card.”

William reached out for her ID card.

Louise did not panic at all. She took out her ID card from her carry-on bag, handed it to William, and said, “I’m a legal citizen of Autranssy!”

“But you are not an Autranssian, so I need you to cooperate with me to make a statement.”

William smiled and waved to his men, saying, “Take her away.”

When Louise heard that, her face immediately darkened.

Although she really wanted to get rid of these people, she didn’t have a suitable excuse. Moreover, their request was completely reasonable, so she couldn’t refuse them at all.

Helplessly, Louise had no choice but to get into the police car and leave.

The police car soon returned to the Southwest Island Police Department and the officers took Louise directly to the interrogation room.

“Tell me!”

After closing the door of the interrogation room, William immediately asked, “What’s your status in Huaxia, and who is the one you’re helping cross the border?”

As soon as he said that, Louise, who had thought that she would be able to leave as long as she casually took a statement, felt her heart skip a beat, but there was no change in the expression on her face.

“Huaxia?”

Louise was stunned and said, “Yes, I used to be a Huaxianese, but now I am a legal citizen of Autranssy. Is there any problem?”

“Of course, there’s a problem.”

William sneered and said, “We’ve already begun to investigate you. From the moment you were born until now, we’ll investigate everything about you thoroughly. You’d better tell us everything you know, or you’ll never be able to get out of prison!”

“Of course, you can investigate me.”

Louise did not panic at all. Instead, she said indifferently, “However, there is a time limit for me to be detained. Once the time limit is exceeded, I will immediately sue you. I hope that you can really put the blame on me before I start suing you!”

William’s face immediately turned grim.

He didn’t expect this Huaxianese woman to be so difficult to deal with. “She’s definitely well-trained!

“It seems that it will be impossible to get anything out of her.”

“I hope you can hold on!”

After saying that, William turned and left.

“Keep an eye on her the whole time. Record everything, even the smallest details. Don’t let her go.”

After instructing his men, William immediately began to organize them to arrest Fang Qiu who was still on the ship.

The investigation of Louise he had mentioned did not exist at all.

In his opinion, he would surely catch the stowaway on the ship without any accidents.

Therefore, there was no need for him to investigate Louise at all. All he needed to do was to catch the stowaway on the ship, and the truth would be revealed.

“By then, this Huaxianese woman will definitely be doomed.”

In the interrogation room, Louise sat at the interrogation table with no expression on her face. She seemed to be in a complete daze. But in fact, she was thinking fast.

She didn’t expect that she would be noticed by the Autranssy authorities as soon as she brought John Doe to the dock.

However, she was not worried.

It was impossible for her identity to be exposed because her profile was so clean that the authorities wouldn’t get to find anything suspicious about it at all.

As for John Doe, she didn’t have to worry about him at all.

John Doe was ranked third in the world. How could these nonentities him?

She believed that John Doe would come to take her away soon.

However, at the thought of this, she felt very embarrassed.

Initially, she was asked to assist John Doe. But now she got him in trouble.

…

“There’s no time to lose. Let’s act now.”

After making the necessary arrangements, William immediately brought his men to the dock at one o’clock in the morning.

Although they had received the wanted warrant from their superiors, they had no idea who was wanted at all.

Furthermore, they had no idea what sort of figure they would have to deal with.

Since they didn’t know, they wanted to take the opportunity to make a great contribution.

William could not wait to see that happen.

The men he gathered rushed to the dock overnight. Because they were afraid of alerting the enemy, they didn’t even drive the car. They all walked over.

At this moment, Fang Qiu was still hiding in the narrow room in the cabin.

“It’s been so long. Why isn’t she back yet?”

It had been almost an hour since Louise went out.

Because there was no movement around, Fang Qiu didn’t go out to check.

However, as time went by, he felt that something was wrong.

“Louise just went out to negotiate with the gang head. Why did it take her so long?

“Could it be that something has gone wrong?”

Fang Qiu raised his eyebrows.

He stood up, gently opened the door, and was ready to go out to see what was going on.

Just then, suddenly, the sound of footsteps could be heard.

Because the ship was made of wood and most of the template was empty, there would be some special sounds when there were people walking. Even if they tried their best to hide the sound, it was difficult to hide it.
