Chapter 1047 - 1047

"Secretary Lowell, do you understand now? I'm a party disciplinary officer with over a decade of experience. Of course, I know that representatives can't be arrested; I was just stalling for time, hahaha..."

Compared to Dirk Carter.

At the moment when the truth was revealed.

Heath Woods was obviously more relieved.

He sneered in front of Brent Lowell.

Dirk Carter looked at the silent Griffith Payne and said, "Secretary Payne, actually, Comrade Brent Lowell knew we'd be coming long ago. He didn't tell you both because he wanted you two to take the fall for him. If you both knew I was coming from the start, wouldn't you have hidden a long time ago, right?"

The intention behind this statement is obvious.

It's to sow discord.

Now, not just Griffith Payne and Bronson Marshall are tense.

Brent Lowell is also starting to feel anxious.

Dirk Carter was about to act against him.

This point was beyond doubt.

But he can't come directly at me.

Therefore, he adopted a strategy of "detour".

Since Griffith Payne is his protector, then take down Griffith Payne directly.

If he confesses, once he admits bribery and the situation at the Grand Theatre.

Then Dirk Carter arresting him would become a certainty.

Damn it!

He thought of every tactic except that Dirk Carter would be this devious!

Brent Lowell cursed inwardly for a while.

In such a situation, perhaps there is only one way left to go!

Since the knife is already at my neck, what is there to be courteous about?

Once he figured this part out.

Brent Lowell suddenly burst into laughter.

Heath Woods asked, "What are you laughing at? Are you crazy?"

Brent Lowell abruptly stopped laughing.

He looked at Dirk Carter with a vicious gaze and said coldly, "Secretary General Carter, don't push things too far. I've worked my whole life here in Majestic Peak Town. Without me, there wouldn't be the Majestic Peak Town you see today. Look at my achievements, my hardships, name your price to let me go, I'll pay you!"

"No amount will do!"

Dirk Carter said.

"Are you sure?"

"I'm sure!"

The two had another exchange.

Brent Lowell took a deep breath. Said, "Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being rude later."

After finishing this sentence.

Brent Lowell snapped his fingers.

Suddenly from both sides of the hall, dozens of people in security uniforms rushed out.

A team charged to the front door.

And directly shut the door.

One of them pressed a certain button.

Above the front door, the blinds slowly descended.

This way, people outside could no longer see the situation inside.

Another team, personally led by Ironhead, surrounded Dirk Carter and the three others.

They were holding rubber batons, looking aggressive.

"Brent Lowell! What are you intending to do?"

Upon seeing this, Heath Woods reprimanded.

Brent Lowell sneered and said, "What am I intending to do? Can't you see? Since you all don't want me alive, then I'm Brent Lowell won't hold back, today the ones supposed to die aren't me, but you..."

Facing such a scene.

Dirk Carter seemed utterly unflustered.

He looked at Griffith Payne and Bronson Marshall, asked, "Secretary Payne, Secretary Marshall, what's your stance?"

Originally Griffith Payne had already despaired.

He never expected Brent Lowell to be so bold as to dare take on a disciplinary secretary.

At the point of no return, there was no alternative.

Hardened his heart.

He said to Dirk Carter, "Secretary Carter, what do you mean by 'my stance'? I know nothing about what's happened, and, it seems I wasn't here at all today."

His meaning is preparing to stand by and watch.

Applying the same logic.

Dirk Carter wants my life; why would I save you?

"Dirk Carter, oh Dirk Carter, things have reached this stage, it's too late for regrets now. I may not do anything against you, but you have to hand over the evidence against Secretary Payne and Secretary Marshall, this way, we can negotiate nicely, and everything can be smoothed over."

Brent Lowell said, his gaze sinister.

"Can't come to terms, seems like we really can't come to terms. Fine, so be it."

Dirk Carter took a deep breath.

Suddenly he leaped onto the coffee table.

With a wave of his hand.

He shouted to everyone present, "I am the disciplinary secretary of Silverwood City in Novaria State; my name is Dirk Carter. My office is executing official duties here; if you obstruct, it will be obstructing official duties. I urge you all to consider the consequences..."

"Hahaha..."

As soon as the words fell.

Brent Lowell burst into laughter.

He mocked, "Secretary Carter, oh Secretary Carter, do you really think that with just your mouth and the remaining three people, you can command these twenty to thirty people here? Where do you get this confidence from? You ask whether they listen to me or listen to you? Do you think your power is omnipotent?"

"It's not important whether they listen to me, but they must heed the law."

"The law? Here in Majestic Peak Town, I Brent Lowell am the law, I Brent Lowell am the rule. Quit trying to scare people, Silverwood City and Majestic Peak share borders; I have people monitoring movements over there all the time. Besides these three, you have no help. What you're doing elsewhere might work, but in front of me, Brent Lowell, it's child's play..."

Brent Lowell finished arrogantly.

Dirk Carter smiled and asked, "What if help comes from Greshire County?"

"Hahaha... Dirk Carter, oh Dirk Carter, aren't you being a bit too fantastical? I'm still here, who in the county would dare assist you? Who in the county would help you?"

Griffith Payne laughed loudly and spoke.

Brent Lowell was evidently impatient, turned to say, "Ironhead, take these four down; I don't wish to waste more words."

"Yes!"

Ironhead gritted his teeth.

He was just about to summon his men to advance.

Heath Woods shouted angrily, "Brent Lowell, if you dare make a move, consider the consequences!"

"Consequences? What consequences? Better consider the consequences yourselves."

With this sentence.

It marked the final resolve.

Ironhead's hand waved outward.

The uniformed security guards began to converge toward Dirk Carter and the other three.

It was apparent a confrontation was unavoidable.

Just at this moment.

Bang!

The glass door of the theater hall suddenly shattered.

A large number of glass shards flew inside.

Startling everyone.

The blinds blocking the door were suddenly ripped down.

A man in a white police uniform was the first to rush inside.

This person was none other than Walter Hughes, Vice County Director and Head of Police Department at Greshire County.

Followed by countless fully armed officers, flooding in immediately.

"Don't move, drop your weapons!"

Voices of this kind echoed unstoppably.

The dark muzzles of guns aimed at those security guards about to act.

Frightening them to crouch with their heads held down.

"Take all these people back with you!"

Walter Hughes commanded.

The officers drew handcuffs, ready to take action against the security guards.

Griffith Payne roared furiously, "Walter Hughes, what are you doing? Who gave you such audacity? Take your men and leave immediately!"
