"I'm not sure about that either..."
Peter forced a smile, lit another match, and lit a cigarette for Percy: "Remember to give me the cigarette butt and ash."
Half an hour later, footsteps were heard outside the detention room.
With a creak, the heavy iron door was opened, and a majestic voice echoed: "Percy Anias... You are released! And you are reinstated as captain!"
"What happened?"
With a serious expression, Percy showed no joy: "In my situation, even if I passed the review, I shouldn't continue to stay in the investigation bureau, right?"
"Follow me!"
The solemn investigator led Percy out of the detention room and walked towards Jacob's office.
"There are quite a few people dispatched from the bureau..."
Percy looked at the empty offices and desks and asked with a hint of speculation: "Has the location of the Sotos Tomb been discovered?"
"No!"
The dignified investigator suddenly stopped, causing Percy to almost bump into his back.
