Black Cat didn’t know her?
Ruth’s pupils shrank and her head whipped towards Nora. She clenched her fists nervously and retorted, “What? I don’t understand what you’re saying!”
“Oh, you don’t? Then I’ll explain it to you carefully.”
Nora hadn’t slept well, and on top of that, she had only eaten a bowl of oatmeal after she woke up, so she was a little tired. She suddenly pulled a chair next to her over and sat with the back of the chair facing her. She propped her arms on the back of the chair and slowly said, “You’re aware that Karl has been acquitted, right?”
Black Cat was the number one ȧssassin in Karl’s Assassin Alliance. However, outsiders were completely unaware that Karl had never actually met Black Cat before.
Following what Nora was saying, everyone immediately understood that she had met the real Black Cat before.
Everyone in the special department gasped.
Nora stared at Ruth. The wound on her forehead was still bleeding. She was holding a tissue against the wound, but her eyes were already starting to become evasive. Nevertheless, she said insistently, “Yeah, I know that, but I have no idea what you are trying to say.”
Nora sighed. She said solemnly, “Aren’t you very smart? Yet you don’t even understand something as simple as this? Then let me put it more bluntly for you!”
She slowly said, “Black Cat said that they don’t know you at all. So, which Black Cat did you design the so-called interrogation plan with?”
Ruth choked on her breath.
Of course, she knew that the Black Cat she had spoken with was a fake.
She was about to use the same trick again when Nora said lightly, “Surely that Black Cat of yours didn’t also deceive you, right?”
Ruth: “!!”
During all her previous interactions with Nora, she had always found the woman very stupid, and thought that she didn’t really know how to speak properly. She didn’t expect that she would also know how to diss someone!
Her rhetorical question had rendered Ruth speechless. Her throat moved a little, but even after a long while, she still couldn’t squeeze even a word out of her mouth.
It was surprisingly Nora who couldn’t be bothered with her anymore. She looked straight at her cell phone and said to Morris, “I’m going to interrogate those few suspects.”
“Okay.”
Morris agreed without any hesitation.
Ever since the Johnson incident, because of Morris’ meritorious contributions, the word “acting” had been removed from the front of his job title. He could now make the decisions for everything pertaining to the special department.
Now that he had spoken, those who had obeyed Ruth’s instructions were no longer under her control.
Nora walked straight to the interrogation room.
Morris picked a few people to work with her.
Mark and a few others who had cooperated with Ruth also awkwardly stood where they were. In particular, the staff member who had installed the spotlight in Nora’s room for Ruth just now felt even more embarrassed. He couldn’t help but stare at Ruth and say, “As it turns out, you don’t know Black Cat at all? You are so full of lies. Which sentence of yours is actually true?!”
Ruth bit her lip.
She clenched her fists tightly. A short while later, she suddenly looked at the man and retorted, “Regardless of whether I know Black Cat or not, the interrogation proposal I produced has indeed yielded useful information, and that is what I am capable of!”
The way people all around looked at her suddenly changed.
In particular, Damon immediately said, “Previously, I thought you were just deceived by a fake Q, but you actually used the same trick time and again. I have finally seen your true colors!”
Ruth knew that she couldn’t carry on the act anymore. With nothing else to lose, she threw the handle after the blade.
She took a deep breath and said, “Yes, I don’t know Q or Black Cat, I made up all of it! But my ability is real! There is absolutely no problem with that interrogation proposal!”
Then, she looked at Nora’s back and followed after her.
The others also followed after her.
