“Nice to meet you, Ms. Tanner. We’re the police in this area. Presently, your sister and mother are in a room on the second floor. The suspect requests to meet with you.”

The hostages were still in the suspect’s hands, so the police didn’t dare do anything drastic.

“Got it. I’ll go upstairs right away.”

“For your safety, Ms. Tanner, I’d advise you not to do so. Just entrust this matter to the police.”

Although the suspect put forth this demand, this lady was the one who handed the evidence of Clayton Zales’ crimes to us. Therefore, she’ll be in danger if she were to go upstairs now.

“It’s okay. Don’t worry, for I know what I’m doing!”

I’m not afraid of him. Instead, I’d like to see what else he wants from me.

“In that case, put on a bulletproof vest, Ms. Tanner. You’ll have a layer of protection if the suspect is in possession of a weapon.”

“No, it’s fine.”

At the end of her patience, Sophie strode right up the stairs.

“Attention, everyone. Be on standby, and once there’s an opportunity, take the suspect down at once!”

Initially, the plan was to arrest the suspect and bring him back to the station. But now that he poses a threat to others, we’ve got no choice but to eliminate him.

“But that’s Clayton Zales!”

The Zales family is a prominent family in Jipsdale. If we were to shoot to kill, they’ll probably demand an explanation.

“Lives are at stake here, so listen to me. If something really happens, I’ll bear the responsibility alone.” So what if he’s a member of the Zales family? Clayton Zales committed a crime, so he still has to be arrested.

At that exact moment, Eustace arrived.

“Why are you here, Captain Sheppard?”

I don’t think such a trivial case would be assigned to him.

“Where’s Sophie? Has she gone upstairs?”

Eustace happened to overhear that something happened at the Tanner residence, so he immediately put everything aside and rushed over.

Despite knowing that Sophie was pretty capable, he still couldn’t help wanting to come over for a look at such a time.
