“What, what did you say?” The guard, Jess, was obviously unable to react to the situation in front of him.

He originally thought that he was dead for sure. Even he himself did not know why he was doing this.

But now, not only was he not dead, he had successfully ‘arrested’ this powerful fellow in front of him. All of this seemed to be like a dream.

“I said, I’m willing to cooperate with your work.

“Of course, if it’s possible, I hope that your investigation time can be as short as possible.”

Mike shrugged and said in a relaxed tone.

Timus looked at Mike with slight surprise. He did not expect that his teacher would be willing to cooperate with what the guard said.. After all, they were likely to spend three days in the cell.

The cell was not a good place. No one would want to go there, let alone for three days.

Therefore, Timus did not understand Mike’s idea, but now was obviously not a good time to ask questions, so Timus chose to shut up.

Although Jess was still very confused, at least he had some understanding of the current situation.

Although he did not know what the reason was, he could now arrest these two guys. Jess subconsciously thanked them in a low voice. Then, he seemed to feel that his actions were a little inappropriate. He quickly took out iron shackles from his waist and tied them to Mike and Timus’ hands.

“I’m going to bring you back for questioning now. Please cooperate.” Jess said the standard lines needed when arresting someone and then led Mike and Timus out of the tavern.

The other guards were still frozen in place. They did not dare to make any moves from the beginning to the end.

Meanwhile, the civilians in the tavern casted contemptuous looks at the guards.

“Are these the guards of our Ancient City of Life? They’re not even as good as a newbie!”

“I watched that child Jess grow up. I recall that he just became a guard this year. I didn’t expect him to grow up to be a reliable young man now. On the other hand, you people, sigh…”

“I now feel that our taxes are a little too high. We don’t pay taxes to support trash like you. You’re not even as good as a child.”

The guards’ faces turned ugly when they heard their sarcasm. However, they could not even retort, because what they said was the truth.

The guards had almost let Mike and Timus go just now.

The disgruntled sarcasm in the tavern grew louder and louder. The guards could not take it anymore. They took the two corpses on the ground and prepared to leave.

Just as they were about to step out of the tavern, the tavern owner’s words came from the bar counter. “Please compensate us for the cleaning fee, 3 silver coins.”

..

At Silver Moon Avenue, Jess walked in front, followed by Timus and Mike, who were wearing black cloaks.

All the pedestrians pointed at them as if they were curious about the situation. Timus felt a little embarrassed about it. He felt embarrassed as if he were a criminal.

But Mike didn’t care, and calmly followed Jess.

Soon, the three of them came to the security office of the Ancient City of Life.

Jess took Mike and Timus to a small room.

There was only one square table in the room, and two seats on each side of the square table. Other than that, there was nothing else in the room.
