Chapter 2665

[Yes.] Johann quickly replied to Luke's message.

[Give him a tea set and some quality tea leaves.] Luke sounded calm in the message, and he did notintend to plead with Johann to do it for him.

Johann was willing to help him to do these things, after all.

[Sure. Send me the money.] Johann immediately replied to his message.

Luke stared at his phone coldly and transferred 10,000 dollars to Johann's bank account. Then, hereminded Johann: [Pick some quality tea leaves. My father-in-law is a picky drinker.]

Johann received the money. He could not help but exclaim: [How lucky Mr. Norman is to have such agood son-in-law.]

[How's Leia doing?] asked Luke.

[As usual. The nurse caught her trying to sneak into the VIP ward room this morning.] Johann sent thesurveillance footage to Luke after he replied to his message.

Luke tapped on the video, and he could see Leia sneakily walking out of the elevator, trying to breakinto the VIP wardroom when the nurses were taking a break.

However, the nurses were not asleep. They were just leaning on the table, resting their eyes. Theyimmediately opened their eyes when they heard footsteps. The nurses and Leia happened to look intoeach other's eyes at that moment.

Then, Leia swore and cursed. In the end, she was driven out and sent back to her ward.

Luke turned off the video. If Leia had such acting skills, she would not have failed in her career whenshe had so many resources back then.

He kept his phone away.

The chief of police walked into the office with a smile on his face. He already opened the file a momentago, and the information Luke gave him could indeed help him to resolve the case.novelbin

Even though he had no idea why Luke had his reservations about the case, the police already hadenough evidence to bring Matysh's case to court.

“Mr. Crawford, it's done." There was a cheerful smile on his face. He was happy that he could resolvethe case.

Not only was he able to seek justice for the teenage girl who committed suicide, but he could also givethe public an explanation about it.

Luke rose to his feet.

A police officer led him to the interrogation room and said, “Mr. Crawford, this is the only room installedwith surveillance cameras. You can only talk to Matysh here."

"Okay." It did not matter to Luke. He could talk to Matysh anywhere. All he wanted was to meet him fora while.

The police officer nodded at his colleague. Then, his colleague and Matysh entered the room throughanother door.

Matysh frowned when he saw Luke. At first, there was a surprised look on his face that eventuallychanged to confusion. Then, he immediately understood that Luke had something to do with this.

After Matysh was arrested and sent back to the police station, he finally knew that he got it right. Thepolice arrested him because of that teenage girl who got raped and committed suicide.

The police could only take action after they found evidence.

It had been so many years, and Matysh thought the case was closed. He did not expect the truth to bebrought to light.

Other than denying that it was he who did it, Matysh refused to cooperate with the police to make thestatement. He spent the rest of the time thinking about it. He had no idea who tipped the police off.

The moment he saw Luke, he finally knew who was the one trying to arrest him.

"It's you!" Matysh became hysterical. He wanted to charge at Luke, but his hands were cuffed to thetable. The stainless steel table was welded to the floor. He could not move.

Matysh did not expect he would be defeated by Luke after he got away with his crime for so manyyears.

Matysh suddenly recalled what Marcos had warned him.

Luke was not an ordinary person. He had told Matysh not to mess with him and not to haveinappropriate designs toward the people around him.

Luke gave him a cold-eyed stare. When he saw how furious Matysh was, he slowly uttered and asked,"I heard that you need a lawyer. You probably don't know any lawyers in A City, right? Do you need meto provide some recommendations?"

"Stop pretending. I know it was you who gave the police the information!" replied Matysh.

"I was just doing what a good citizen should do." Luke did not deny it. Instead, he tried to make himtalk. "I know you have something to do with the Normans' case, right?"

Matysh initially thought of saying something, but he noticed that the surveillance cameras in theinterrogation room were turned on. Even though he did not know how the criminal litigation processworked in A City, he knew if he said anything in front of the surveillance cameras, it would be used asevidence.

Matysh laughed mockingly and replied, "Do you think you can trap me here?"

"It's enough to keep you in prison for a few years and change that lecherous personality of yours." Lukedid not care if it was the teen suicide case or the Normans' case. Matysh would have to spend eight toten years in prison if he was sentenced.

"You're in your 50s, right?" Luke suddenly asked.

Matysh's eyes darkened and replied, "What do you want?" "According to the law in A City, the criminalwill usually be sentenced to three to ten years imprisonment for the charges of rape and sexual assaultof a teenager. The innocent teenage girl committed suicide because of what you did to her. That's badenough. I'm sure you'll be in prison for ten years for that. Besides, the police will eventually solve theNormans' case. And that's going to be at least three years of imprisonment. You'll be spending 13years in total behind bars, and you'll be released from prison when you're in your 60s. No woman willbe by your side for more than a decade, only men. Matysh, it's not going to be easy for you." Lukecrossed his long legs as he watched Matysh's face darken. It made him feel good.

The chief of police and a few police officers were holding their phones outside the interrogation room.They were using the phone's app to translate the voices coming from the surveillance footage. One ofthem was responsible for translating what Luke said, while the other police officer translated whatMatysh said.

Another police officer took photos of every sentence that was being translated.

“That's a lot of information.” The police officer who was responsible for taking note of the content oftheir conversation could not help but exclaim. Even though the translated sentences shown on thetranslation app were not fluent, they could roughly understand the meaning. He could not help but sigh.

"Take note. Don't miss anything.” The chief of police reminded him.

"Yes, Sir."

In the interrogation room.

Luke's words made Matysh realize that the rest of his life was ruined if he was trapped there.

The legal system in A City was completely different from Russia's.

Moreover, his family did not have any influence or power in A City. If there was evidence to proveeverything he had done, he might really have to be in prison for more than ten years. According tointernational law and the law in Russia, he would be extradited and returned to Russia to stand trial.

His life would be ruined.

Matysh started to regret what he had done in the past. Why did he target Luca to satisfy his desires?

Still, it was not the time to regret it now.

Matysh deliberately sneered and said, "Solve the case? Who do you think you are? I've never doneanything like that before. No matter how strict the laws are in A City, the police have to release me ifthere's no evidence to prove that I'm the one who did it. It's too early for me to give up. Luke Crawford,I know about you and Marcos. What did he offer you to listen to him and go as far as to ruin my life? By

doing this, he thinks he'll be able to inherit the family's inheritance, right? That's impossible! He'll neverget it!"

"Who told you that the police don't have any evidence?" Luke lowered his voice. "Matysh, they foundmore evidence today. Even if you can't explain to the police, you'd better find the best attorney in thecity. You're going to jail for sure."
