Despite being a well-known hacker, Solo didn't really take the fact that Interpol was after him seriously.
After all, all these years, he had only undertaken private commissions and most of the money he earned was legal. He had only run to America because—first, he wanted to visit Nora, and second, he found being targeted by Interpol very troublesome.
But even if he was caught, he would be released from jail after just two or three months. Moreover, if he took the initiative to cooperate with Interpol, he could even join them, start out on a clean slate, and become a white hat.
The Interpol had even invited Solo to join them before, but he had declined.
Now that he knew that Brenda was an Interpol officer, he started having thoughts of joining them. That was why he had kept displaying his professionalism just now.
That was why Solo was not afraid at all, despite Aaron subduing him, and was even asking him what was going on.
Aaron didn't hold back at all, which made Solo's shoulders hurt terribly. However, none of it could compare with his desire to know what on earth was going on with Brenda.
Aaron stared at Solo, the deep hatred in his eyes almost overflowing.
He sneered, "Fine, if Captain Brenda won't tell you the truth, then I'll do it. The two of you will never be together because..."
"Aaron!"
Before Aaron could finish, Brenda's frosty voice came over, preventing him from saying the rest of what he wanted to say.
The woman, who stood tall and straight, came out of the room and her gaze fell on Solo. Her pretty face was tense and frosty as she slowly said, "Don't waste your breath telling him unnecessary things!"
She took a step forward. She clenched her fists tightly, stared at Solo, and said, "You and I have been walking two different paths from the start. I've told you a long time ago to stay away from me but you keep sending yourself up to my doorstep again and again. In that case, I might as well accept this achievement that you're offering me! Aaron!"
Aaron stood up straight. "Present!"
Brenda lowered her eyes and kept quiet for a long while.
Solo was also staring at Brenda, his eyes full of incredulity. However, he quickly reacted and said, "Captain Brenda, I know I may have done some things that violate international law, but I don't think I've done any huge wrongdoings, right? Seeing that I am repentant and have also offered to help you, why don't you consider recruiting me into the team?"
Brenda's fists were shaking a little.
Next to her, Aaron also sneered. His eyes were all red and all his muscles seemed to be bulging as though he would kill Solo with a punch the very next moment.
Before he could speak, Brenda said, "Detain him for now, then get the local police to take over. Our main priority now is to arrest Barbarian!" "Captain Brenda!" Aaron yelled furiously.
Brenda was shaking all over. "Do as I say! We will do everything according to the system!"
Aaron looked at Solo. The way he was gritting his teeth in fury confused Solo and put him at a loss. Regardless, after a short pause, Aaron replied,"... Yes, ma'am!"
At last, Solo couldn't help but say, "No, you two, I'm asking to join you guys here. Also, aren't I just a tiny little criminal? Do you really need to gnash your teeth so hard? You make it seem like I'm some kind of heinous murderer. I..."
"Shut up!"
Brenda suddenly glared at him and let out a low shout, which shut Solo up.
Only then did Brenda look at Aaron. "Take him to a solitary cell and keep him there."
"Yes, ma'am."
Aaron left with Solo.
Nora, who was standing at the side, glanced at Brenda.
Brenda took a deep breath.
Nora walked up to her and suddenly asked, "Just what exactly is going on?"
Brenda's eyes were all red and there were faint tears in her eyes.
She lowered her eyes and suddenly smiled. "You know something, Nora? Some people with certain abilities may not have done anything wrong, but their abilities are, in
themselves, a mistake..."
