My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1856

At the Paramount Criminal Police Team.

The person in charge of the management of Peaksky Building was invited to the interrogation room. Jefferson was assigned to handle the interrogation.

Just like many times before, Jefferson did not proceed with the interrogation immediately. He just left the suspect in the interrogation room and did not allow anyone to talk to him. Then, he told everyone what to do.

Some of the police officers did not understand Jefferson's way of doing things, so they whispered in front of Quill, "Sergeant Scott..."

Quill corrected him, "Call me Quill."

"Quill!" The police officer immediately changed his choice of words. He looked around again to make sure that no one was nearby. He then asked, "What do you think Captain Hefner is doing?"

Quill did not say anything.

The police officer continued, "We brought in the suspect as ordered, but he just left him there and ignored him. Not only does he not interrogate him, but we're also not allowed to approach the suspect either. What on earth is he trying to do? Does he think that by ignoring the suspect, the culprit will just turn himself in?"

Quill did not understand why Jefferson was doing this either. However, he trusted that Jefferson knew what he was doing and that he would solve the case. "Captain Hefner has his own way of doing things. You guys are not used to it yet because he just joined the team. You'll definitely get used to him after a while."

The police officer questioned again, "Quill, even if he had his own thoughts, he should have at least let us now, right? We don't even know how to continue with our work anymore and we can't talk to him about this too. Why don't you talk to him?"

Quill answered, "If you're planning to find someone to talk to Captain Hefner, I'm definitely not the person you should be looking for."

"Who else can we ask for except you? Look at how arrogant he is. He doesn't even care about you..." The police officers had a lot to say, but they were interrupted by an extremely arrogant voice. "I've been wondering why the Paramount Criminal Police Team had always taken so much time to solve cases. It turns out that the police officers enjoyed speaking ill of their leaders behind their backs during working hours. With such discipline, it would be a miracle if any cases could be solved."

With just a few words, Jefferson had disregarded the Paramount Criminal Police Team's effort. The experienced officers didn't like what they heard, especially Quill, who was the captain before Jefferson joined the team.

However, Quill knew very well that he was not as capable as Jefferson when it came to solving cases. Although he was unhappy, he kept it to himself and did not show it on his face at all.

"Captain Hefner, I'm not..." The police officer did not mean to speak ill of Jefferson behind his back. He just did not understand Jefferson's intentions. He hoped that Jefferson could make it clear to everyone so that everyone would be on the same page. "Can you speak more politely? We are all colleagues here. We should respect each other."

"I hate people who talk about others behind their backs the most. If you have something to ask me, do it face to face. You can even bring it up at a meeting, but there's no guarantee that I'll listen to it." Jefferson was still as arrogant as always. No matter where he went, he would not control his temper. He wanted to listen to the advice put forward by his team, but not for the sake of his team member. It was because Adrienne had told him to do that.

Quill knew how Jefferson was. He had heard of even more offensive words, so he wasn't surprised when he heard this. However, the other police officers' faces turned pale. All of them turned to Quill and finally realized that this previous captain was much nicer.

"Which one of you can tell me the details of that person in the interrogation room?" Jefferson asked.
