Bab 718: Chapter 721: Abandon Lily Gray (Extra 1)

"I know, that's why I never thought about charging Mr. Cooper, nor have I ever thought about imprisoning him for a lifetime."

Larry Scott shrugged indifferently, "I've already told my men not to keep Mr. Cooper in custody for more than 120 hours. Madam Lucas, rest assured, I promise to release him before the deadline."

"However... in the black market, there are thousands of transactions every day. No one can guarantee that other prohibited items won't be found. After all, the black market is so vast and the profit so high, anything is possible. I think Mr. Cooper wouldn't want to let go of the black market, right?"

Larry's intention became crystal clear.

He couldn't convict Ethan Wilson.

But he could endlessly use the excuse of finding prohibited items in the black market to arrest and imprison Ethan Wilson.

He could imprison him for 48 hours today, then 72 hours the day after tomorrow, and then take him back a few days later for another 24-hour session.
