Filed To Story: The Plan of Saving Nora Novel Free
She had already asked around.
When Karl first returned to the States, things had been very unpleasant between him and the Smiths and the Hunts. He’d even threatened the two heads of the families with Black Cat.
Therefore, Black Cat was definitely someone that the Smiths and the Hunts couldn’t get in contact with!
No one would be able to expose her again for sure this time.
With that in mind, Ruth became rather smug deep down.
What was the big deal about being temporarily suppressed? Johnson had invited her into the special department precisely because of her identity as a master of interrogation. Only by exhibiting superb working ability would she be able to conquer the people in the department!
Nora ignored her.
This made Ruth’s bow look a bit awkward.
Johnson took the initiative to speak first. He reprimanded her and said, “Alright, Nora, let bygones be bygones. Harmony must be maintained among co-workers, and there mustn’t be any talks of revenge in private, understand? Also, certain people must not hold grudges. We are all a team here!”
Nora curled her lips disdainfully.
Brenda scoffed and said, “Interesting that you should say that, Captain Johnson! Originally, everyone in the department was handsome, so I definitely would’ve wanted the department to be whole. But now that you’ve joined us… Tsk, why do I not want it to be whole anymore?”
Johnson: “!!”
He could hear the ridicule in Brenda’s words, of course.
But there was nothing he could do about her.
Brenda had been transferred into the department by Interpol, so it was impossible for her to ever rise to the position of director in the department. Therefore, she behaved brazenly and fearlessly.
Additionally, because she was from Interpol, she was entirely outside of his and Morris’ jurisdiction. Whether she cooperated with them or not depended entirely on her mood.
Johnson took a deep breath. He could only ignore her and say, “I asked all of you to come here because Ruth and Black Cat need to understand your personalities when customizing interrogation methods and plans for all of you, so I need all of you to fill out a questionnaire for them. Ruth will send the questionnaire to all of you later. I hope everyone will cooperate with her. Understand?” “Understood!”
Everyone answered in unison.
However, somebody raised a question. “Why do we have to fill in a questionnaire?”
Ruth explained, “I have studied the people you guys arrested. To be honest, we have already employed many different methods, but have not achieved good results. In that case, we may have to crack them one by one, in which case all of you would have to cooperate with one another in acting and so on… As such, I would need to understand everyone’s personalities. The questionnaire is very simple, there aren’t any complicated questions.” Then, she smiled sweetly and added, “Also, I will be showing everyone’s questionnaires to Black Cat. I’m sure all of you will leave an impression on Black Cat, so you must try your best to answer the questions, okay~?”
As soon as she said that, those who were originally reluctant to answer the questionnaire suddenly became excited.
Johnson nodded. Then, he gave a wave and sat down.
Ruth said, “I will send everyone the list of questions that need to be answered. I hope you can pass them to me before work ends tomorrow. Alright, let’s end the meeting.”
When leaving the conference room, Brenda sneered, “Who does she think she is? She just knows Black Cat, that’s all, isn’t it? What’s she arrogant about? She wants me to fill in the questionnaire? Hah!”
Nora looked at her. “Do you think everyone will fill it out?”
“… Yes!”
Nora: “?”
Brenda looked up at the ceiling. “If it means that Black Cat would remember my name, then even I’m willing to fill out the questionnaire.”
Nora’s lip corners spasmed. “Do you like Black Cat too?” “Of course!” Brenda walked with wind in her steps. “Is there anyone in our line of work who wouldn’t like Black Cat? If possible, I’d even like to marry Black Cat.”
“… What if Black Cat is a woman?”
“That’s even better!” Their male colleagues who had come over at some point jokingly said, “Then we can marry Black Cat!”
The group of them walked past Nora and caught up with Ruth, who was walking in front. They asked, “Ruth, hey Ruth. What does Black Cat look like? Is Black Cat good-looking? C’mon, just reveal a little about him!”
Ruth became popular again.
Brenda curled her lips disdainfully and sighed. “Although I really don’t feel like paying any attention to her, the temptation that Black Cat presents is simply too great! Sorry, Nora, I gotta betray you for a while. Just a short while…”
After speaking, Brenda took a step forward, hooked her arm around Ruth’s neck, and said bewitchingly, “C’mon, little girl, tell big sis here whether Black Cat is a man or a woman? Is he handsome? Do you think big sis here stands a chance?”
Nora: “…”
She felt like all of them had gone mad.
Then, she heard Ruth sigh and say, “Is everyone that interested in Black Cat? Then why don’t I pick two representatives from among you guys to say hi to Black Cat when I have a meeting with him to discuss the interrogation plans?”
“Wow!”
Everyone was delighted.
Nora: “…”
Was the video conference tomorrow?
In that case, she would arrange a face-slapping session!
Nora left this group of people and went straight to Karl’s interrogation room.
This big boss still looked relaxed. He was on the sofa sleeping soundly. When he heard the door, he opened his eyes and looked at her heartlessly. “You’re here? Why didn’t you bring lunch today?”
Nora: “…”
Did he really treat her as a food deliveryman?
She grimaced and sat across from him. “How long until your business is over?” she asked.
“Soon.”
Karl crossed his legs and swayed. Nora could only say tactfully, “Tanya is very worried about you. Logically speaking, they’re newlyweds now. She and Joel have booked a flight and hotel for their honeymoon two days later. If you don’t come out now, she’ll probably cancel all her plans.”
When Karl heard this, he slowly sat up straight. Then, he said, “Two days later?”
Nora nodded.
Karl coughed. “Alright, I’ll be released in two days. Tell her not to cancel her plans. Young people have to be romantic as newlyweds.”
“… Okay.”
Nora was extremely satisfied. She stood up and left the room before walking towards Caleb Gray. The man was still coughing. Nora reminded him to take his medicine on time and asked him a few questions. When she saw that Caleb still wasn’t saying anything, she left.
Not long after Nora left the interrogation room, Karl suddenly knocked on the door.
The person guarding him asked through the door, “What’s wrong?” Karl said, “I want to see Captain Johnson!”
The person thought that he was finally going to reveal information and said excitedly, “Okay, I’ll go look for him now!”
Soon, the person walked away. Two minutes later, Captain Johnson, who was about 50 years old, strode over. Before he entered, he said to the two guards, “Leave for a while. Let me have a few words with Karl in private.”
“Yes, sir.”
Captain Johnson entered the interrogation room and shut down the surveillance cameras. Then, he looked at Karl. “What do you want?”
“I want to see Old Morry.”
Karl said, “I’ve been making the same request ever since I was arrested the second time. When will you get him to see me?”
Captain Johnson frowned and replied, “I told you, Old Morry’s health isn’t good. He’s in the hospital!”
