Elijah rushed out of the ward and was about to follow Sophia when he noticed her standing not too far from the corner with her arms folded."You're a man of many talents, Julius Black," Sophia's voice was loud enough to be heard as she smirked gently.Elijah moved slowly and met her at the corner of the hallway. "Are you looking down on me now?"She scoffed and rolled her eyes. "Don't put words in my mouth. We all have our different parts to play in this world: officers who enforce the law, doctors who save lives, sect members who fight for honour, engineers who build, practitioners who strive to achieve mastery and reach pinnacles, and sometimes apprentices who learn to be perfect in a field. No, I don't look down on you.""I just wanted to thank you for saving my boss today," Elijah told her politely with a slight bow of his head. Now that she knew he was an apprentice at the DiLaurentis Medical Center, he had to keep it that way.Sophia waved dismissively. "Don't think too much ab

Elijah Langston was about to return to the ward when his old phone began to ring. He checked and saw that the call was from none other than the international financier, Charles Adelson.He answered, "Mr. Adelson?""Good Doctor," Charles Adelson's vibrant voice sounded from the other end of the line. "I missed your call earlier—had to sign off on some high-profile government approvals. Did you run into a wall?""Not exactly." Elijah moved to the corner of the hallway and lowered his voice. "It's something else.""Contrary to what I thought, I've had my eyes on Brooklyn Heights' news daily, and I think I might have underestimated you."Elijah scoffed. "You probably forgot the Ainsworths run the media in this city.""Oh, c'mon, I'm not that gullible, Good Doctor. There are legitimate whispers that always travel through the underground system back to the surface. You seem to be handling the matter well as the 'mysterious expert,'" Charles told him."I want to start a pharmaceutical distr

“You're the one with pharmaceutical-business knowledge and whatever big, bad plan you're cooking. I won't ask questions. What next, Good Doctor?” Charles simply asked.“No limits, or international approval delays.”“We own the factories behind the scenes, Good Doctor. You don't need anybody's permission. The pharmaceuticals have always been distributed at random after production to the places where our factories are situated, but now 80% of weekly production will be sent directly to Brooklyn Heights without delay, and the company we set up will be responsible for distribution locally, in Sorevia, and perhaps to international buyers who have always appreciated the top quality of the production. Twenty percent will no longer be enough to satisfy the other pharmaceutical companies, so they would naturally come to the one in Brooklyn Heights that does the major distribution now.”“I never mentioned 80%, Mr. Charles. Those who buy everything immediately after production sell at outrageous

Elijah's expression changed slightly since he hadn't expected such a thing, but he was so sure she didn't recognize him; otherwise she would have acted very differently already.She would have definitely gone crazy at the fact that he had killed that many people, but that wasn't her reaction.“Of course—I'm Elijah Langston,” he responded, puffing out his chest.What he didn't know was that Serena had been squinting earlier to see his features in a blur.The more she looked, the more she felt a little déjà vu, because she had her eyes covered in tears back at that place. She had not seen things clearly at the time, but that blurry image of the expert who called himself Elijah Langston was still in her head.Without warning, she pulled the pillow from behind her head and threw it at him. Of course he didn't dodge and allowed himself to be struck directly in the face.“I'm not joking, tell me the truth right now.” Serena's body shook with rage as she rose to a sitting position. “Are yo

Meanwhile, at the West District Police Station, Sophia was getting out of the police vehicle she had arrived in when she noticed several cars with “AINSOWN” customised plates driving out of the vicinity in great number.What caught her attention most was the last car—a convertible McLaren Spider with a high-pitched exhaust note.It wasn't about the car.It was about the person seated in the back seat with two others, who were popping champagne for him as they laughed wildly. His face was completely covered in gauze, but she could still recognize him.“What the hell…” she breathed.It was Andrew—the senior PR manager of Ainsworth Media whom she had arrested not long ago with her colleague, Officer Mark, for their crimes.Why was he popping champagne inside an expensive convertible like someone who had just gained his freedom after years? Was she seeing things?She touched the holstered weapon at her side and started to give chase in that direction when her colleague and friend, Offic

Sophia’s steps were swift.She approached Commissioner Maxwell, her chest rising, her fist still slightly clenched.“Commissioner, this is unacceptable!” she said angrily. “Andrew—he’s a criminal. He was arrested for kidnapping, attempted rape, and multiple other charges. How could he be released? Who authorized this?!”Maxwell’s expression remained unreadable. He lifted a single brow, leaned back in his chair, and spoke, “And what evidence do you have to support this accusation, Acting Chief?”Sophia blinked, surprised by the calm dismissal in Maxwell’s tone. Her frustration rose. “We received an anonymous tip about crimes being committed at the location, but the strongest evidence is the victim herself, sir. She testified; she attested to everything they did and tried to do. My team and I arrested him based on her statements. You can’t ignore that!”Maxwell’s hand tapped the desk lightly; a mysterious amusement played in his eyes. “The so-called ‘victim’? My investigation shows th

Commissioner Maxwell rose to his feet and said boldly, “Let today serve as a warning to you never to misjudge again. How dare you even have the heart to arrest a fellow officer? Do you know I can suspend you for such an offense?”Sophia remained quiet and lowered her head, boiling inside.Maxwell stopped by her side and announced, “I’ve instructed my men to bring everything you collected from the scene. The evidence and the victim’s statements—out of the evidence room. I’m taking them with me and will be handling this investigation personally from here on.”Sophia gritted her teeth, but she couldn’t say anything in response. Once the evidence of the crimes was in the Commissioner’s possession, there was nothing she could do to prove that the two were really guilty.In other words, the case was permanently closed.“Let me tell you something...” His voice dropped as he leaned close and whispered into her ear. “If you want to last long as a police chief in this district, take your team

Outside, as Commissioner Maxwell Doyle approached a waiting convoy of police vehicles, he pulled out his phone and made a call to a private number.The call was answered almost immediately; a cold, feminine voice sounded on the other end.“Tell me it’s done.”Maxwell laughed heartily and answered politely, “It’s just a small matter, Ms. Ainsworth. As long as I’m here to oversee the district, no one will dare to be reckless. Andrew should call you soon enough. Mark is also free, although he might need extra medical care.”“Are you assuring me that nothing will arise in the future?” Grace Ainsworth’s stern tone could be heard clearly, and this made the Commissioner gulp.He quickly explained, “I’ve collected the evidence already and will bring it straight to you so you can destroy it yourself. Even if that new chief tries to be bold again, she has nothing on them. I’ve warned her to respect her elders going forward.”Grace scoffed at the other end of the line. “I’m not pleased, neither

Another laughed gently and said, “Boss, I hope you'll find a little extra in the monthly fund for us, just like Chief Nicholas.”Mark puffed out his chest and said arrogantly, “Let me tell you, I work for one of the great families and you can't even start to imagine how much they pay when you handle little tasks for them. As long as you're loyal, trust me, you'll be able to touch any woman you want and afford anything in this district.”They laughed heartily, and one of the officers even said, “Officer Mark, we heard you touched the number-one beauty of Brooklyn Heights today. Is it true that her skin is like porcelain?”The eyes of the remaining men widened in anticipation and they drew closer to ask, “Yes, Boss. Tell us...”Mark raised his chin and smirked arrogantly. “If that stupid person hadn't interrupted me, I would have done more than touching her. Let me tell you, think of anything smoother than touching a fine porcelain plate.”“Boss, you must have enjoyed it.” Their eyes g

The remaining officers, realizing the danger, quickly reacted with a rush of adrenaline. “Kill him! Kill him now!” Officer Mark shouted like an insane man. They immediately aimed their rifles at the ragged old man, but their fingers never reached the triggers. Chiiiii! The old man’s arm moved in a gentle arc, slow enough to seem careless, yet impossibly sharp. A thin crescent of light cut through the air. Crack! Crack! Crack! Every rifle split cleanly from barrel to stock. The severed pieces clattered across the ground, still twitching from the force of the cut. No one remembered how to breathe anymore; their eyes widened in panic. “H-He cut through—he cu—? Impossible!” “T-That wasn’t even a sword!” “What kind of old monster—?” Each of the officers with Mark had a different reaction to what had happened. How could someone cut cleanly through steel as though it were simply a piece of paper? How was this even possible? In fear, the officers flung away the ruined weapons a
