ログインIn the fifth year after my death, Oliver Rypien, leader of the huge smuggling ring that has a notorious reputation domestically and internationally, finally gets arrested by the police. At the public trial court, Oliver can be seen wearing an inmate uniform, though his murderous look is etched on his scarred face. He even has the guts to hum a whimsical tune tauntingly, completely unrepentant. After hearing the prosecutor accusing him of killing 129 victims, Oliver suddenly snorts in laughter. "You're wrong. You're missing one more victim. The police officer named Victor Patton who came from the Customs Enforcement Unit? Yeah, he died at my hands as well." Everyone gasps in shock. A reporter is quick to rebuke Oliver. "Hang on, Victor is a mole working for your organization! After a bounty on him was posted, he had nowhere to run to, so he embezzled over hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of national assets before fleeing overseas! Even now, he's still living his life scotfree abroad!" Oliver shook his head before letting out a cold chuckle. "Victor was a stubborn one. Even though I crippled him, he still managed to kill five of my men. How is it possible for him to be our mole? "After crippling him, I threw him into the concrete foundation of Joy Bridge. If you don't believe me, go ahead and dig through the foundation." Suddenly, Oliver lowers his tone. His smile becomes more malicious. "Speaking of which, we did have a mole who worked with us to kill ten police officers. But now, he's successfully washed his hands off his crimes and became a certain someone's husband. "Why don't you take a guess as to who that brainless, idiotic woman is?" Three minutes later, my ex-wife, Gabriella Campbell, also known as the Chief Commissioner of Police in Gakoli, receives a phone call from the court outside the office of a well-known OBGYN department. "Chief Campbell, please come to the court immediately. The defendant has something crucial to tell you in person."
もっと見るChristopher was ultimately sentenced to death for multiple charges. He immediately broke down and started trembling violently. He clutched his chest, his face deathly pale, as he slid down the defendant's chair. The court officers immediately moved in to secure the scene as medical personnel rushed forward. They worked to resuscitate him for three hours at the hospital. Despite their efforts, he suffered massive cardiac bleeding and was pronounced dead on the operating table. On the same day, the court approved Oliver's death sentence and authorized the execution order. Before his execution, Gabriella went to Gakoli's maximum-security prison to see him one last time.In the visitation room, Oliver looked as nonchalant as ever. Gabriella sat opposite him without speaking, staring at him in silence. The smile faded from his face as he locked eyes with her. "Even in death, you'll never make up for what you did to Victor."Once visitation hours were over, Oliver was taken away by
I drifted beside Gabriella, watching her from behind. For the first time, I realized she seemed to have aged overnight.The next morning, every seat in the largest press room at the Gakoli Police Department was taken.Gabriella didn't start with her usual official opening remarks. She swept her gaze across the room in silence. "Today, on behalf of the Gakoli Police Department, I'm here to tell everyone the truth about the alleged defection of Victor Patton five years ago."Five years ago, Victor Patton, an officer of the Customs Narcotics Unit, was assigned by the department to go undercover inside Oliver Rypien's drug trafficking and smuggling cartel in a classified takedown operation. "During the mission, he repeatedly risked his life to pass intel to the police force, providing critical leads that proved crucial in solving many cases."While he was undercover, someone infiltrated the police force, and he repeatedly leaked operational plans to the drug cartel, resulting in th
The light at the entryway was on. Hearing the door open, Christopher immediately went to greet Gabriella."Gabriella, you're home." He instinctively reached out, took the coat she had taken off, and hung it on the coat rack nearby. "Is the work assignment all done? You haven't been home in two days. You must be exhausted." Gabriella changed her shoes, watching him. "It's fine."Christopher followed Gabriella into the living room. He got her a glass of water and casually sat on the couch next to her. "I watched the news again today. Netizens are still talking about what Oliver said, and they're speaking up for Victor. "Gabriella, what do you think Victor's up to? It's been five years since he ran away, yet he's still using a death-row inmate to stir up trouble. Hasn't he hurt enough people? "I'm pretty sure Victor's the one behind Oliver's confession. He's trying to overturn the case and clear his name."Gabriella looked up at Christopher and said calmly, "You seem to under
At that moment, a veteran detective sitting in the corner spoke up. "Chief Campbell, there's one more person we haven't looked into.""Who?""Christopher Wright."The atmosphere in the conference room turned tense. Five years of memories instantly flashed through Gabriella's mind. To her, Christopher had always been gentle, thoughtful, and understanding. But whenever Gabriella began to have doubts about that case, he would always bring up the warehouse explosion at the right time. He would remind her of herself lying in the rubble, covered in blood, and any lingering doubt would be suppressed once again."Look into him. Leave no stone unturned. I want to know every single thing about Christopher—from the moment he was born until now. I want everything about him—his records, his whereabouts, and his connections!"The special task force moved at an alarming speed. In less than three days, every detail about Christopher was presented to Gabriella. Christopher wasn't who he clai
"Oh, Gabriella. I can't believe someone like you was able to arrest me." Oliver stopped smiling and fixed his gaze on Gabriella through the thick bulletproof glass."All these years, you must've really hated Victor, huh?"Gabriella didn't answer, but her hands clenched into fists at her sides.
Christopher sounded aggrieved. "Gabriella, I'm scared. Just thinking about it makes me shiver."Daniel died a horrible death, and so many of our comrades are gone too. It's all because of Victor. And now Oliver, who's about to be executed, is trying to clear his name? How many more people is he goi
The head of the narcotics unit handed Gabriella an application form filled with signatures. "Chief Campbell, here's the application form to conduct drilling at Pier 17 of the Joy Bridge. Everyone in the narcotics unit has signed it."We have to get to the bottom of this, regardless of whether Oli
"Gabriella, I'm here to talk about Victor Patton."As soon as my name rang out in the courtroom, I jolted and instinctively looked at Gabriella. I saw her stiffen, a murderous glint flashing in her eyes.Oliver snorted, seeming pleased with her reaction. He leaned back in his chair as if unbothere
