Almighty Father System - Chapter 440: Aftermath.
Leo had just woken up after a late night sleep. He stood up and then he turned on the TV. As he expected, the news was echoing with the massacre in the government lab. Leo heard about it and turns out when someone from the morning shift came to take the charge, he had a couple of friends with him, and when they saw the situation in the reception lobby, one of the guards literally had a heart attack.
The scene was nothing but purgatory, the entire Zion nation was shaken, and so was the world, they could not understand how did someone managed to pull this off. Leo raised his hand and then gave out some commands to Alpha. Just as he woke up, he gave him the second command, 'Do it.'
Then, the entire news network of the world froze, this had happened once in the past as well. After the frozen black screen, a masked man appeared on the screen and said, "I see that you people have found the gift that I left for you."
Then he paused, after he asked, "Do you want to know why we did this? The reason was because the centerpiece of this art work, is called Clyde Clat, he is someone who is a part of the darkest stain of humanity, the Morning Star Tower. So, we planned an action and caught all the fish in one place. The resume of all this people has been sent to all of you in the email boxes along with evidence. I hope you all enjoy it, and just so you all know, we will not stop. All those black sheep we have your name our list and we are coming."
The screen resumed the broadcast, but the people were already scared. This incident caused a hit on the moral, and the psychological defenses of the secret investors and the shot callers of the Morning Star Tower, they had not yet recovered from the incident at the castle and now this came to bite them. They were literally shocked by the whole thing.
Leo was sitting in his bed, and after a few minutes, the door of his room was knocked. When he opened, a saw a young lady in the maid outfit, she was holding a trolley and asked, "Sir, did you order room service?"
Leo replied with a faint smile and said, "No, I have not but I wanted to."
The lady smiled faintly and from behind her, a middle-aged man came forward. He was wearing a suit and took out a card and flashed it to Leo, as he said, "Mister Jan Franke, I am Marve Hilo, I am from the Law Enforcement Department, we have a few questions for you, shall we have a talk?"
Leo nodded and then he stepped to the side letting the man come inside. He knew what was going to happen, the young man took a deep breath and replied, "have a seat officer Hilo, would you mind if I call the room service?"
Marve looked at Leo and nodded, his face didn't have any expression and he could not recognize Leo because the latter had a prosthetic make up on his face, however it was so well developed that Marve could not spot any difference even in the X-ray machine Leo's face would not be any different.
The young man picked up the phone on the side table and with a complete ease he placed a order for a fruit juice and a sandwich with two sunny-side ups. Marve looked at the man and said, "You have quite an appetite for the man whose friend has been killed."
Leo was surprised and asked, "May I ask, which friend are you talking about, Officer?"
Marve looked at Leo coldly and asked, "Clyde Clat, I am sure you must have heard about this matter, no?"
Leo sighed and shook his head before he sat down on the bed and looked at Marve who was sitting on a chair across him as he said, "Well, I would not say that he was my friend. But yes, yesterday I did give him a bottle of Charade Rose which cost my Boss a lot of money."
Marve raised his brow and asked, "Tell me more about this."
Leo shrugged and replied, "I work for an independent investor, Sheril Habon, he was a Zion native but now lives in recluse in the Eastern Clover nation. I was on a vacation and Boss called me to ask how Zion nation looks now, I gave him a little virtual description and he asked me to pay for the meals of the people in the restaurant, and that was when I told him tha Clyde Clat was present their, I mean, you are better aware of the image that Mister Clat had, he was the scion of the Clat family and that too with a potential to inherit the leader chair. So, the boss paid for the stuff hoping to establish a connection with him. That is all."
Marve nodded and asked, "Can you prove this?"
Leo nodded, he grabbed his phone and opened a website, and then gave it to Marve, who called his own people and asked them to check if the website was real and even asked for Bonafides. The query came back quickly and proved that Leo was really a not lying. Then Marve looked at Leo and asked, "What did you do yesterday night?"
Leo replied calmly, "I was in this room only."
Marve sighed and asked, "I would like to ask you to be truthful and confess your crimes, that way things would be easy."
Leo sighed and then looked at Marve with a calm face, before he said, "Do you think that you can shove the blame to this shit on me? How are you going to prove it?"
Marve was surprised and Leo said, "Officer Marve, I have no reason or instruments on me to do such a thing, I have come here for only travel, and the meeting was coincidental, if you are really intent on pinning it all on me, then just wait for my boss to call this to the attention of the international agencies, I wonder if you would be able to survive that."
As he said this, Marve realized that Leo was not an easy target. He stood up and said, "You misunderstood, it is only normal for the Law Enforcers to push the target a little hard."
Leo scoffed and said, "Yeah, just like Ellen Mackey, everyone remembers the dark history of that man who suffered wrongful death in custody. So, be careful with the pushing because if I pushed back, you will be out of a job, and believe me. My Boss pays an annual charity donation to your department of ten million Deram. You are better aware than me where all that goes. So please, find someone who is out of the circle."
That said he saw Marve off the door and the closed it with a bang, however, as soon as he did that he smiled, because the show was just about to start. After a few minutes, Leo received a prompt from Alpha that someone was posted outside his hotel to keep a watch and then his phone line was being tapped.
He smiled and replied, "Just tell me when the fish gather in the pool, that is when I will move from here."
...
While he was getting ready to kill all the people in one go, Lily and Snow had started the campaign of pulling out almost all the Clover Nation companies and people from the Eagle Nation. How? The Cardinal Group directly opened for vacancies, they expanded over night, and directly poached some of the talented people at the top of the Eagle Nation companies. Then the government made a silent offer through their Intelligence Office, to the people who were in the government, they bought what could be bought, with money, emotions or moral blackmail.
Then Elvin stepped up and directly caused some of the companies to crash and the economy shuffled. The people were shocked, all this happened within two days. They were now realizing how deeply Clover Nation was hiding and what shocked them even more was that Stag Nation had stood up in support of the Clover Nation and the statement came directly from King Avalon himself.
The international politics was a chaotic scene at the moment and the people could not figure out what would happen at the next moment. The Cardinal family was very strong and even if they were sitting in the Clover Nation, they were strong enough to influence the entire world.
At this moment, Krump was sitting in a prison cell dressed in an orange jumpsuit, he was located in the maximum prison cell and he was kept in a separate wing totally. One of the passing guards asked, "Sir, do you need a smoke?"
Krump looked at the man and gave him a middle finger. He knew what waited him and so he was going to take a last stand.
