Bab 480: Interrogation

"Perhaps, that depends on what they can offer us." 

Howard swiftly dodged into a nearby alley, quickening his pace to a run.

He wanted to set the stage in a secluded area; he wasn't keen on having an audience for what was to come.

As he hoped, the moment he dodged, four individuals broke away from the crowd and started running as well.

Howard's speed was deliberately controlled; he didn't use mana, nor did he allow his body to perform at full capacity.

Those trailing him were merely ordinary people, perhaps with a mana adaptor among them, but at best, they were only capable of bullying the average person.

His decision to run was merely to give them a reason to chase.

Howard wanted to set the stage in a deserted area to make both cleaning up and interrogation more convenient.

He certainly didn't want to perform such tasks under the watchful eyes of bystanders, as it would severely tarnish his image.
