Chapter 230 - Jack the Joker (1/2)
Hearing the statement of the warden through the speaker, detective Garry Turner's eyes widen in disbelief. His whole body froze in an instant as he could feel the beads of sweat forming on his back -- drenching his inner suit. Altering his gaze back and forth to Jack and the chief of police, Garry was rendered speechless.
”Gerald? Can you pulled your gun and put it on your temple, please?” Jack demanded in a calm manner which the chief of police swiftly executed without question being asked.
Jack smiled in satisfaction seeing that his job was perfectly executed. Glancing at the appalled detective, Jack smirks in provocation.
”Gerald, if ever you see any blood being smeared around the premises, please avenge me, alright?” Jack threatened, referring that if he ever spills his blood, the chief of police will wreak havoc around the state prison.
”Detective, don't be mad. I am just here to fetch someone -- let's not make this hard, ok?” he resumed still bearing his perilous smirk towards the detective who's now cornered and cannot retaliate no matter what he wants.
Gulping his anxiety down, Garry glared daggers at Jack as he put down his gun, he uttered; ”What's your motive?”
”Wesley We.”
Keeping his cold front but, inside Garry's mind, he was more panic-stricken hearing Wesley We's name being uttered by Jack. Of course, Jack won't show himself after all the years of running without a greater objective in mind. However, about Wesley We being held in the state prison was always been a piece of classified information and only a few selected individuals know about that fact.
”How did you know about him?”
”Oh, Garry -- stop procrastinating.” Jack waves his hand off and shifts his gaze on the two-way mirror before he moved his finger as if asking someone inside the observation room to come out.
”Come on, these bracelets are not very fashionable -- people might think I'm a bad person.”
Soon, a police on duty came into the interrogation room with a dreaded expression. The officer knew what was going on as he witnessed everything from the two-way mirror which gave him a little shock by how things escalated to Jack's favor.
”Oh god, you took so long…” said Jack in a bored tone as he was already free from handcuffs. Both law officers were in shocked seeing Jack flaunting his capabilities.
Obviously, Jack was doing things on purpose as if telling them that he is unstoppable -- which raised all there signals to the officers who were witnessing the scene on the observation room and into the interrogation room.
Apparently, the three more people inside through the two-way mirror looked at each other as they silently agree to a decision. Soon, the person who is in charge and has the most authority inside the whole observation room pressed a button which can be only used in emergency purposes.
