Ross squatted on the ground and smoked one cigarette after another. All over the ground beside him were cigarette butts.

Teasing!

Humiliation!

He had led Task Force Zero to be completely fooled by the Death Inquisitor. They now looked like monkeys!

He was an outstanding sheriff in the New York Police Department. He had been awarded the Medal of Merit many times, but now he was in such a sorry state.

Ross took out his phone and called Terrence.

“Chief Superintendent, I apply to withdraw from Task Force Zero. I don’t have the ability to solve this case. I’m no match for the Death Inquisitor!”

Anthony, who was standing at the side, felt very uncomfortable after hearing this. Although he and Ross used to be competitors, work was work. Moreover, it was Ross who applied and asked to be transferred to Task Force Zero. He was very grateful in his heart, but he was somehow hurt that Ross was acting that way.

There was a moment of silence.

Terrence’s voice sounded on the phone. “I watched the entire death broadcast this time. Do you know why I named the Task Force Zero instead of number one, number two, and number three?”

Ross had never thought of it. He had never wondered why.


“Why?” Ross was not in the mood to care about these things and asked casually.

“Task Force Zero…I wanted all of you to start from scratch. Why did the Death Inquisitor defeat you so easily? To make you collapse? It was because all of you were fighting against the Death Inquisitor with pride. All of you were once the most outstanding people. There was pride in your blood. You thought that you could easily capture the Death Inquisitor, but now you have met a strong opponent. He made all of you completely fail. Your pride was shattered, and your entire person collapsed! Is this the attitude and spirit that a New York police officer should have?”

The corner of Ross’s mouth twitched slightly.

“Let go of the pride and honor of the past. Now, from scratch, arrest the Death Inquisitor. This is what a real New York police officer should be like!”

Ross’s eyes were a little moist. Indeed, he used to have many honors and was very proud. He realized that he had been blindly confident until he met the Death Inquisitor. He was defeated by the Death Inquisitor time and time again.


“Chief Superintendent, I was wrong!” Ross muttered.

“Face yourself and face your opponent. You still have a long way to go!” Terrence sighed and continued, “The higher-ups are very serious about this case, but you don’t have to bear a burden. The Death Inquisitor has very good public support, and his live broadcast did not cause public panic. Therefore, the higher-ups instructed that while investigating the Death Inquisitor, carefully investigate the criminal acts of the sentenced person, and release the investigation results in a timely manner to minimize the social impact. Isn’t the live broadcast room impossible to shut down? Then delete all the recorded videos that are circulating on the Internet and block everything related to the Death Inquisitor. After doing all this, we will continue to investigate bit by bit. We cannot relax at all. In the end, it will be best if we can solve the case. After all, the Death Inquisitor is still a criminal. Do you understand what I mean?”


Ross understood. The conclusion was that if they could solve the case, that would be good. If they could not solve the case, they would reduce the social impact. However, they had to keep pursuing the case. They could not allow the Death Inquisitor to continue to be arrogant!
