Chapter 253: Ella Dell

"Hello, are you detective Argent?" She was sitting inside her office when abruptly, a voice brought her back from that state.

So looking at the source of the voice, she realized a man was staring at her while standing before the door to her office.

"Who are you?" She inquired with a frown showing up on her forehead.

’He’s a rather good-looking man.’ This was her next line of thinking.

"I’m called detective Lock... John Lock. I’m from England." Introducing himself to this point, he closed the door behind himself as he walked toward the other chair inside the office, "I’m here because I’m curious regarding a specific case of yours... a person to be exact..."

"Hmm? What do you mean?" Confused, she queried.

"I want to understand whatever you know about the Virus Industries." He responded blatantly without beating around the bush in the least.

"Virus Industries...?" Hearing him, she grew even more muddled, "Why would I know anything about the Virus Industries?" She was clearly familiar with that giant company that had saved the world, however, she didn’t believe there was any kind of relationship between them whatsoever.

Seeing her unclear and sketchy regarding the subject he was talking about, he explained further, "If I’m not wrong... a while ago, you had a case of slaughter in some club... now I’m not clear about the details. But I was told a man became involved in this case... and I believe that man was the chairman of the Virus Industries..."

Hearing this, detective Argent’s face promptly went pale. There was no way she wouldn’t realize who exactly this person in front of him was talking about right now since there was only one result that popped into her mind, ’So... he was the chairman of the Virus Industries...’

"Are you alright? What happened?" Catching the paleness of her face, detective Argent questioned.

"It’s... It’s nothing... please leave. I don’t understand what you’re talking about!" Stuttering a bit, she exclaimed.

Being the excellent detective he was, how could detective Lock not perceive the fear apparent within her eyes, so, after staying quiet for a little while, he added, "I don’t know why you’re afraid of this whole situation so much... but I can assure you one thing, and that is the fact that I just want to understand everything about this case... it’s very important to me, so, please help me."

Listening to his words, she pondered, ’Did that person send him to see if I would reveal anything about him? Is this his way of testing me?’

"Did he send you? Is he testing me?" After staying silent for around a second, she asked about the doubt that was pricking her mind.

"Hmm? What do you mean?" Listening to her words, a deep frown showed up on detective Lock’s expression as he began to analyze every aspect and every situation that would lead to her asking this particular question.

A few seconds later, before she could answer with anything, his eyes began to shine brightly as a shimmer of understanding flickered within them, "You don’t need to fear that I was sent by that person. To be honest... as a detective, I can sense that there is always something very dark and malicious involved when it comes to the Virus Industries and the chairman that leads it. And I’m only trying to get behind everything and reveal this evil entity called the Virus Industries! That’s my only intention!"

Not stopping there, he continued, "And looking at your face, I can easily see the clear fear hidden inside your eyes. However, there is nothing to be afraid of when it comes to me because I believe, deep down, when everything is said and done... when our true intentions get naked, we are actually pursuing the very same goal!"

"So, please, just tell me whatever I want to know. I promise I won’t tell anyone who my source was. I just wanna have a better understanding and a better direction, that is all." Finally concluding his words, he proceeded to gaze into her eyes, waiting to see her response.

As she was done hearing him out, she didn’t know why, but for some reason, she felt like she could trust his words. But she didn’t reply immediately and instead sank into a deep state of contemplation for a few minutes.

Seeing her like this, detective Lock decided to allow her to deliberate as much as she needed.

A few minutes drifted away, when finally, she opened her mouth once again, "Okay... I’ll tell you everything that happened that day..."

"So here is the deal... that day... a girl called Ella Dell showed up at the precinct confessing to a murder she committed at the Avalon Nightclub..." After that, she elaborated on every little detail that had taken place that day.

"Then, after that person confessed to slaughtering the rest of those people that night in a tone as if he had simply crushed a few ants under his feet, one after another, Mr. chief justice, the director of the FBI, and the police chief of New York Department came to the interrogation room... as they made the case disappear entirely in only a few sentences!" By now, a mixture of despair and hate had become apparent in her tone.

While listening to different details of that day, detective Lock’s expression went through many transformations, but in the end, he only had a single question, "Did you say that girl’s name was Ella Dell?"

"Yes... and she lives at..." Clarifying on these little details, he also expounded on where Ella lived plus at which university she was studying in currently.

"I see... thank you, that was very helpful. Now thanks to you, I’m one step closer to the truth and I’ve also figured my next course of action." Uttered detective Lock in an appreciative tone.

Shaking her head, detective Argent answered, "No need to thank me, if possible... I only want him to receive the justice he deserves."

Days began to elapse one after another again. During this time, the CEO ugly began to purchase many lands in a variety of countries throughout the world.

100 million dollars...

200 million dollars...

1 billion dollars...

2 billion dollars...

5 billion dollars...

These were the overall process of the price he had paid during these past few days in order to purchase and buy various lands in the world. Moreover, this number continued to increase by every passing day.

Actually, he was buying almost every one of those lands in twice the amount of their actual worth since that was the only device by which he could effectively tempt almost all of the owners of those lands, money.

And with that utilization, no one in their right minds would hesitate about selling their lands in twice or thrice their actual value.

This was actually a very good bargain since they could just sell their lands, and immediately purchase another one for at least twice as large as before instead!

Of course, there were also many people who doubted as to why the CEO ugly was buying their lands. However, in the end, after a bit of research, they realized it wasn’t just their land this giant was trying to buy... they were also buying many other lands throughout the world.

Thus, they could only conclude this company had an urgent need for lands, maybe for building new factories on them, maybe as an investment, or maybe for an entirely different reason altogether. They didn’t care at all.

What mattered to them, in the end, however, was whether they could benefit from this trade or not!
