Female Novel
Chapter 603
James asked, “What’s going on?”
Ronn explained, “Sir, Jake set up the underground intelligence network. It’s complicated as it involves
many different industries. The underbelly of Cansington knows that they can exchange information with
money from Jake, hence the authorities have been onto him since a long time ago.
“Not only is the setup illegal, but the network has also been involved in many illegal deals.
“The authorities want to get rid of the network once and for all, so they’ve arranged for spies to blend in
over the years. Now, I don’t even know who the spies are, so I’ve captured all of Jake’s remaining men
to interrogate individually.”
Ronn gave James a summary.
As he spoke, he pointed to a man who was tied up.
The man was in his forties. Currently, he was being strung up. He was heavily injured with multiple
wounds on his body, some of which were dripping blood.
He looked like he was an inch from death.
“One of our men discovered that he had leaked messages secretly to a police officer at the provincial
police department.”
James walked up to him and released him.
The man lay on the floor and glared at James. Coldly, he said, “Kill me if you want to. I’m not saying
anything.”
James turned to look at Ronn, barking, “Why are you still standing there? Release them!”novelbin
“Sir, what?” Ronn was stunned.
James’ expression darkened. “Did you forget who you are? Did you think you’re part of a gang now?”
“Yes, sir.” Ronn ordered, “Release them.”
Everyone who was tied up was released.
James looked at the man on the ground, asking, “How many years have you been here?”
“Hmph.”
The man hmphed coldly.
James said, “Let him go.”
“Yes, sir.”
Ronn nodded, looking at everyone else. “Well? Which of you are his friends? Take him and go!”
The rest of Jake’s men looked at each other, but none of them stepped forward.
There were still spies among them.
They knew that as soon as they stepped forward, they would never be able to leave.
“Send him to the hospital. Let the rest go.”
James left after leaving his instructions.
Ronn followed him.
In a room in the underground basement.
Ronn stood to the side, asking, “Sir, what are you doing? What we’re doing now is illegal. Are we going
to wait till the police arrive and let them arrest us?”
James glanced at Ronn. “Even if they are spies, we don’t have to torture them. Don’t forget that you’re
a soldier. We’re countrymen. There’s no need to torture a fellow countryman. As for the authorities, I’ll
give the Blithe King a call and get him to cover this up. Once everything in Cansington has cleared, I’ll
disband the network.”
“Yes, sir.”
James lit a cigarette and said, “However, we must still figure out who the spies are. Find out who they
are and release them, but don’t give them any more trouble. It’s their job.”
“But sir, Jake’s men have been with him for years. It won’t be easy to suss out the spies.”
“Then let all of them go,” James said casually.
“Smart, sir.”
“Save it. I’m going to sleep. Keep your voice down.”
James got up and left.
Ronn took care of matters immediately.
He expelled all of Jake’s remaining men.
The underground intelligence network was now fully staffed by James’ Black Dragon army from the
Southern Plains. He had gained total control.
Jake heard about it in no time.
There was nothing he could do about it. His underground intelligence network that he had spent years
building was now James’.
From the day James took over, he had expected it, but he did not expect it to be so soon.
