After killing several people, a burst of dense footsteps approached quickly.
Then, a trembling voice sounded, "Nobody move."
Glancing around, Fade saw a team of thirty or forty people in uniform. They were all gathered at the city wall around the tower, surrounding him.
"You want to stop me?" Fade glanced at these people and said coldly.
Immediately, the group of people couldn't help but take a few steps back.
In the end, the 40-year-old leader stood up and looked at Fade. "Sir, we are the Cloud City guards. Your behavior earlier has violated the regulations of Cloud City. Please cooperate with our investigation."
Fade glanced at him and said coldly, "What if I don't?"
"This..." The leader wanted to say something harsh, but when he saw Fade's cold eyes, he hesitated. Words hung at the corner of his mouth and he could not say anything.
Seeing this, Fade said, "I know that you are just following orders. It's not impossible for me to cooperate with the investigation."
“I'm sorry to trouble you, sir," the leader immediately said.
Fade raised his right hand and said, "Wait a minute. I'm not done."
"I can cooperate with the investigation, but before that, I want to know the background of these people on the tower. Who allowed them to attack in the city guards' territory with so many heavy weapons?"
"This..." The leader was speechless.
Seeing this, Fade said coldly, "If you don't explain it to me clearly, forget the investigation."
"But...” The leader wanted to say something, but in the end, he dared not speak.
At this moment, a shout sounded, "What's going on? What are you doing here? Did you catch them?"
"Mr. Wu!"
The city guards hurriedly bowed to greet him.
Then, Fade saw a man in his forties walking arrogantly towards them with his hands behind his back.
"Laius, what's going on? The prisoner is here. Why aren't you arresting him?" The man, Wahkan Wu, glanced at Fade and asked the leader, Laius.
Laius quickly lowered his head and explained, "Mr. Wu, this gentleman wishes for us to promise him something before he cooperates with the investigation."
Hearing that, Wahkan raised his eyebrows and asked, "What do you mean? We are the city guards. When do we have to negotiate with criminals? Lome on, arrest him."
"Mr. Wu, this gentleman's power..." Laius had an awkward expression on his face.
However, Wahkan didn't listen to him at all. He waved his hand and said, "So what if he's powerful? You're the city guards and you have the power to guard Cloud City. You're facing a powerful criminal and yet, you are making deals with him. This is outrageous."
"Arrest him right now!"
As the order was given, Caius gritted his teeth and had to bite the bullet before going forward.
"Please cooperate with us, sir."
"What are you doing? Is this what an arrest looks like?" Wahkan looked displeased.
At that moment, Fade pushed Caius aside, walked directly to Wahkan, and asked, "Mr. Wu, are you in charge of the city guards?"
