Chapter 318: Fishing, Willing to Take the Hook
At this moment, Zayn Ziegler broke out in cold sweat. He really did not know that his deputy commander was actually colluding with the aristocratic families.
If Zayn knew about this, he would have definitely killed Micah Lane with one palm.
Sammy Dudley calmly said, “Micah Lane came and bullied the members of the
Preston main team. He even killed one person to establish his prestige.”
“This damned bastard!”
Zayn never expected that the person who usually listened to his orders in front of him would have a side to him that he did not know about.
Braydon Neal did not blame Zayn. Since the Flitwick family was connected to Micah, how would they let Zayn know about?
Now, he could use this opportunity to see how deep the waters of the martial art aristocratic families in the provincial capital were.
They could also see how far their hands had stretched out!
Braydon glanced at Zayn and whispered, “In your name, announce that Robert
Flitwick attacked the Preston main team and has been detained here to see
Flitwick family’s reaction.”
“Alright!”
Zayn vaguely understood what Braydon wanted to do.
He was trying to lure the snake out of its hole.
The Preston main team had become an extremely dangerous place.
As long as the martial artists of the aristocratic families dared to come, they would definitely die.
There was no need to explain the reason.
Zayn sent the order back to the Central Plains main team. When the captain, Hatcher Murphy, received the news, he frowned slightly and wanted to ask about the details.
However, there was no reply from Zayn.
However, the Flitwick family in the provincial capital received the news in just ten minutes.
Zayn had only informed the main team of this news.
The Flitwick family received the news within such a short time.
It proved that the hands of these aristocratic families had already reached into the Central Plains main team.
It was just that Zayn had not noticed it.
When the Flitwick family heard the news, they were stunned.
What did Robert Flitwick and Micah Lane do?
They were actually captured by Commander Zayn, and he even said that Robert attacked the Preston main team.
If Robert was convicted of this crime, he would definitely die!
Rowan Flitwick, the head of the Flitwick family, sat in the living room with an extremely gloomy expression.
He was not the only one in the living room.
All the people in charge of the Flitwick family in the provincial capital had arrived.
The group of people frowned. They all knew that Zayn was not to be trifled with. He was the commander of central Hansworth. They could not kill him, right?
They did not even want to do such a thing!
If a dignified commander was killed, the capital governor office would be furious. They would definitely investigate the entire three provinces of the Central Plains. They would definitely not stop until they had caught the murderer.
While the Flitwick family was fretting.
A spirited old man appeared at the entrance of the living room. His aura was thick and long. He was not only a martial artist, but his strength was probably not weak either.
Rowan quickly got up from his seat and said, “Father, why are you here?”
“I heard about Robert’s matter. There’s no need to be anxious. The Flitwick family is not a soft persimmon.”
As the old man spoke, there was a hint of confidence in his voice.
The Flitwick family was backed by the capital’s Flitwick family, so they were indeed much more confident than ordinary small aristocratic families. Rowan frowned and asked, “Father, about Robert…”
“Don’t worry. In less than ten minutes, Zayn will have to let him go. Otherwise, he’ll suffer!”
The old man calmly closed his eyes to rest.
He sat in the living room, as if he was waiting for news.
Over at the Preston main team’s base, Braydon was even more patient and calm.
It was as if they were waiting for the Flitwick family to make a move.
The news of Robert’s death was not leaked.
If the news was leaked, then they would have to investigate the Preston main team thoroughly.
At this moment, even if there were betrayers among the hundreds of official members of the Preston main team, they would not dare to spread any news.
Because at this time, the Preston main team was closed to the outside world.
Sending the news to the outside was equivalent to telling Braydon that there was something wrong with the Preston main team.
With the northern army’s methods, they would definitely kill the person on the spot after a thorough investigation.
No one was not afraid of death.
Therefore, the news could not be leaked.
The communicator in Zayn’s hand suddenly flashed red.
The secret order from the capital was directly sent to Zayn.
Sammy asked solemnly, “Is there any information about the Flitwick family?!”‘
“No, it’s an order from the governor office. They want me to release them!”
Zayn’s face darkened.
He was not stupid. He knew what the commander wanted.
Using Robert Flitwick as bait, he wanted to see how powerful the Flitwick family was and how far these aristocratic families could stretch their hands!
If the Flitwick family was stupid enough, they would ask the Flitwick family in the capital to help them.
To Braydon, this would be an unexpected gain.
Braydon’s lips curled into a faint smile. The governor office immediately gave the order for Zayn to release him.
Which governor did this order come from?
Was it Nico Yates or Tristan Yandell?
Or Westley Hader!
This order was probably hidden from the three of them.
However, Braydon was very calm and smiled faintly. “Zayn, tell the governor office that Wilhelm Thompson and Robert Flitwick have both been released.”
“Alright!”
Zayn quickly replied.
He reckoned that the people from the governor office would never have thought that Zayn would dare to lie to them.
They probably had no idea who the person behind this game of chess was.
It was the demon-like War God of the North.
This game of chess had just begun.
Logan Hall scratched his head and said, ‘Young Master Braydon, why didn’t you ask Governor Westley Hader to investigate who gave the order?” “The commander is setting the line to fish. Let’s see who will bite the hook!” Sammy explained to Logan.
Zayn, who was beside him, had already understood what Braydon wanted to do.
If he cast a long line, would he be able to catch a big fish?
That would depend on luck!
In the capital, someone had already taken the bait, regardless of who had passed the order to Zayn through the governor office.
This person would definitely die.
In the Flitwick family’s meeting hall in the provincial capital.
Old Master Flitwick sat at the head of the table, resting with his eyes closed. He looked calm, but his expression was a little ugly.
Half an hour had passed.
It was far longer than the ten minutes he had said Robert and Wilhelm would be released.
Zayn had yet to release him!
Old Master Flitwick opened his eyes and said, “Rowan, give me your phone!”
“Father, is Zayn determined not to let them go?”
Rowan’s eyes revealed worry.
However, Old Man Flitwick took out his phone and made a call. The person he was contacting was none other than the Flitwick family in the capital. The Flitwick family of the capital was the main entity of the family!
After the call connected.
“Old butler, it seems that our commander Zayn didn’t give face to the Flitwick family!” Old Master Flitwick was a little angry.
The old voice on the other end of the phone was a little puzzled. “Robert hasn’t returned home yet? That shouldn’t be the case. Zayn has already reported back to the governor office, saying that Robert and Wilhelm have been released from the Preston main team base.”
“Impossible, it’s been half an hour and I still haven’t heard anything.” Old Man Flitwick was very certain that they did not let them go.
The old voice was furious. “Zayn deceived his superiors and subordinates. He actually gave the governor office misleading information. He’s going to suffer this time. Don’t worry, brother. We’ll definitely think of a way to save Robert.”
“I’ll wait for your good news.”
Old Master Flitwick hung up the phone, his cloudy eyes showing a trace of worry.
He was well aware of Zayn’s methods..
