<h4>Chapter 218: Cooperating With The Investigation</h4>


    “What, what did you say?” The guard, Jess, was obviously unable to react to the situation in front of him.


    He originally thought that he was dead for sure. Even he himself did not know why he was doing this.


    But now, not only was he not dead, he had sessfully ‘arrested’ this powerful fellow in front of him. All of this seemed to be like a dream.


    “I said, I’m willing to cooperate with your work.


    “Of course, if it’s possible, I hope that your investigation time can be as short as possible.”


    Mike shrugged and said in a rxed tone.


    Timus looked at Mike with slight surprise. He did not expect that his teacher would be willing to cooperate with what the guard said. After all, they were likely to spend three days in the cell.


    The cell was not a good ce. No one would want to go there, let alone for three days.


    Therefore, Timus did not understand Mike’s idea, but now was obviously not a good time to ask questions, so Timus chose to shut up.


    Although Jess was still very confused, at least he had some understanding of the current situation.


    Although he did not know what the reason was, he could now arrest these two guys. Jess subconsciously thanked them in a low voice. Then, he seemed to feel that his actions were a little inappropriate. He quickly took out iron shackles from his waist and tied them to Mike and Timus’ hands.


    “I’m going to bring you back for questioning now. Please cooperate.” Jess said the standard lines needed when arresting someone and then led Mike and Timus out of the tavern.


    The other guards were still frozen in ce. They did not dare to make any moves from the beginning to the end.


    Meanwhile, the civilians in the tavern casted contemptuous looks at the guards.


    “Are these the guards of our Ancient City of Life? They’re not even as good as a newbie!”


    “I watched that child Jess grow up. I recall that he just became a guard this year. I didn’t expect him to grow up to be a reliable young man now. On the other hand, you people, sigh…”


    “I now feel that our taxes are a little too high. We don’t pay taxes to support trash like you. You’re not even as good as a child.”


    The guards’ faces turned ugly when they heard their sarcasm. However, they could not even retort, because what they said was the truth.


    The guards had almost let Mike and Timus go just now.


    The disgruntled sarcasm in the tavern grew louder and louder. The guards could not take it anymore. They took the two corpses on the ground and prepared to leave.


    Just as they were about to step out of the tavern, the tavern owner’s words came from the bar counter. “Pleasepensate us for the cleaning fee, 3 silver coins.”


    ..


    At Silver Moon Avenue, Jess walked in front, followed by Timus and Mike, who were wearing ck cloaks.


    All the pedestrians pointed at them as if they were curious about the situation. Timus felt a little embarrassed about it. He felt embarrassed as if he were a criminal.


    But Mike didn’t care, and calmly followed Jess.


    Soon, the three of them came to the security office of the Ancient City of Life.


    Jess took Mike and Timus to a small room.


    There was only one square table in the room, and two seats on each side of the square table. Other than that, there was nothing else in the room.


    Mike looked around the room and could tell that this was probably an interrogation room. He took the initiative to walk to the other side of the table and found a random seat to sit down. Timus followed him and sat beside Mike.


    Seeing this scene, Jess nervously reminded him, “That, that’s where I sit. You should sit on the other side!”


    “What’s the difference?” Mike shrugged nonchntly. “Anyway, whether you sit here or there, you can ask questions. We can also answer your questions.”


    Hearing Mike’s words, the young Jess opened his mouth, but he could not find any words to refute, all he felt was that there was something strange about this.


    “Don’t just stand there in a daze. Please help me make a cup of tea. I’m a little thirsty.” Mike yawned and said to the young guard, Jess.


    “Please make my tea a little thicker!” Timus also raised his hand and quickly added.


    At this time, Timus’s hands were bound by iron shackles, so when he raised one hand, his other hand was raised along with it. It looked a littleical.


    When he heard Mike and Timus’s request, Jess was slightly stunned. He could not help but frown. “You are now under arrest. Why do you still have to make such a request?”


    Mikeughed and said, “If I wasn’t willing to cooperate with you, I’m afraid that I wouldn’t be arrested now, right? What do you think?


    “Besides, I didn’t break thew. Even if I did, I still have basic human rights, right? You Can’t abuse me, right?”


    Hearing this, Jess fell silent. He knew that what Mike said was the truth.


    Jess could only leave the interrogation room helplessly and go out to make tea for the two of them.


    Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the interrogation room, Timus asked the question that he had been holding in his heart, “Teacher, why did you cooperate with them and take the initiative to be arrested?”


    He had been thinking about this question along the way, but he still could not figure out the answer.


    Mike, on the other hand, smiled slightly, “It’s nothing. I just admire this young elf guard a little.


    “In this world where the strong prey on the weak, there are very few people like Jess who use their lives to protect what he thinks is right.”


    Timus responded with an ‘oh’ but did not say anything. He felt that his teacher, Mike, was a little unpredictable.


    Sometimes he felt that Mike was a guy who did whatever he wanted and killed people without blinking.


    Whether it was the goblins, the stone giants, or the two guards just now, Mike would not feel any burden when he killed them.


    Other times, he felt that Mike was a very positive guy.


    He had told Timus to be careful not to hurt the thorns in the Violet Valley, and he had also told himself a lot of philosophical thoughts.


    For a moment, Timus found that he actually did not know much about his teacher.


    Soon, Jess came back with two cups of tea in his hands.


    He sat down opposite Mike and Timus, then pushed the two cups of tea away from the table. It was his first time sitting in this seat, and he felt a little awkward, but he still did not forget the work he needed to do.


    “What are your names? Where are you from? What is your purpose here?”


    Just as Mike was about to answer, Timus, who was beside him, spoke first.


    “My name is Timus, Kordontimus.


    “He is my teacher. You may call him Lord F*ck.”
