My Substitute CEO Bride romance Capítulo 620

Dane Sutherland turned to Angelica and asked in astonishment, “Angelica, what are you doing here?”

Angelica was the chief of an Area Inspection Brigade, just like him.

She was also the only inspection officer who had been made chief of an Area Inspection Brigade before turning even 25 years old.

Hence, Angelica had formed a great impression on him.

“A murder just occurred in Jonford. It was an extremely violent crime. Not only did the murderer upload a video of the victim getting abused on the dark web, but they also harvested the victim's kidneys so that they could sell them for profit.

"The clues we had gathered thus far told us the culprit was hiding in Purple Church, and Mr. Calcraft is working with me to catch the murderer!"

Angelica gave him a summary of what was going on.

Dane had a nickname—Mother Sutherland.

He was a man of integrity who always abided by the law. However, he was not a particularly easy man to get along with and often acted rashly.

Several times, he stood up during meetings and objected to what Chief Zink proposed.

Thus, Chief Zink was not very pleased with him.

After hearing Angelica’s explanation, Dane beckoned for his men to put their guns away as he asked flatly, “Is he a member of the Inspection Office?”

Angelica shook her head. “No!”

Dane sneered. “Shouldn’t the work of catching criminals be left to the inspection officers? Why is he butting in?”

Angelica answered, “He's sworn brothers with Philix Xing, the Northern Territory’s general. Nash has also saved his life in the past!”

Everything went quiet after she said that.

The two inspection officers standing behind Dane gulped instinctively.

Philix Xing.

General of the Northern Territory.

Hearing those phrases felt like being struck by lightning.

Even Dane, who usually never bowed down to power, could not stop himself from drawing a sharp intake of breath.

It had not even occurred to him that Nash had such powerful individuals supporting him.

Just then, Nash noticed a group of cars appearing in the footage.

There were eight cars, and all their license plates had been blacked out.

They were driving down a road inside the tourist attraction that had restricted access.

“Where does this road lead to?” Nash asked.

Nash’s head began aching.

It was probably going to be impossible to capture Lindon.

Unless a massive number of inspection officers were summoned to search the entirety of Mount Royal.

Some of them also needed to be tasked with following those eight cars.

Such a massive operation could not be accomplished in such a short amount of time.

“Dane, there was a camera embedded in one of the statues. Why don’t you look at the footage and see if it’s useful?”

A sooty-faced firefighter stood outside the guardhouse and handed over a pocket-sized security camera.

Delighted, Dane hurriedly took the camera and asked, “Did you find it in the statue in the main hall?”

“Yes, but we aren’t sure if the footage on it can be used or not. The fire’s been put out. We’re leaving the rest up to you!”

He got into the firetruck and left after saying that.

Dane turned to one of his team members and asked, “Did you bring a laptop?”

They shook their heads as they answered, “The company-issued laptop that we usually keep in the car has been sent for repairs!”

Dane handed the camera to the security guard. “Please help me extract the surveillance footage stored in this camera!”
