Let me be lazy please!

Arc 3.2

Still handcuffed he smiled playfully as he spoke
"Oh come on my officer, You wouldn't throw such a handsome face like mine in prison, would you? Perhaps we can work out a deal?"

Lucas looked at him unfazed as he replied

" I don't make deals with criminals. "

Ace leaned back and pretended to gasp in pleasure with a smile on his face

" you're making me weak in the knees with that authoritative tone of yours."

Ace glared at him completely ignoring his flirtatious attitude;

"Cut the act. You're not getting out of this."

Ace pretended to be sad as he leaned back and sighed

"Alright alright, I won't tease you anymore....but can I get some water? I'm really parched"

Lucas simply sat there, crossed arm, not making any movement, making ace scoff

"Oh come on, no matter how much you call me a criminal I'm still human, and you should follow basic human rights"

Lucas stared for a few seconds more before getting up and taking a glass of water from another table and pushing it towards ace who simply raised an eyebrow

"Mr.officer....im handcuffed....do you mind bringing it to my lips?"

Lucas clenched his fist as he controlled his anger and glared at the man

"Drink now or I'll take it away"

Ace laughed as he shook his head and drank the water with his handcuffed hands, as he finished he looked around the interrogation room in a carefree attitude

"Tell me mr.officer... do you always play it so straight and narrow?"

Lucas replied coldly;

"My job is to uphold the law, not entertain criminals."

Ace smiled teasingly as he replied;

"Such a shame, I was hoping we could have a little fun before I get out of here"

Lucas face hardened as he warned;

"Don't push your luck"

Ace simply raised an eyebrow teasingly as he leaned leaned forward in the chair

"Or what? You will handcuff me to the table? Though I don't mind, there are cameras in this room"

Their eyes lock in a charged moment of tension as Lucas replied

"If that's what it takes to ensure you face justice, then yes."

Ace playful demeanor fades, replaced by a flicker of respect for Lucas's unwavering resolve.

"You're a tough nut to crack, Mr.Officer"

[Host.....] Bella called out weakly

'yes bella?'

[ Will you please stop?.... you're embarrassing me....]

' embarrassing you? How so? '

[Stop flirting with your man host!]

'.....bella, I swear to god if you call him my man once more....'

The system couldn't care less as she simply went silent

Ace looked at the man infront of him slightly unhappy now due to Bella's comment but didn't have time to dwell on it as they both heard shouts coming from outside the room before the door got knocked down and in came phoenix holding a gun.

Lucas immediately rose from his seat and pointed his gun at phoenix who completely ignored his existence and walked up to ace exasperated;

"I leave you for few minutes and you go get captured, I can't believe you"

Ace smiled as he got up and replied

"See, I only let myself be caught because this officer here was so handsome"

Phoenix raised an eyebrow and finally looked at Lucas who still had his gun pointed at them.

" I would suggest you not to do that, he's already been let free, ask your Superiors if you doubt it"

With that phoenix turned back to ace and uncuffed him with the key he got

Ace caressed his bruised wrists as he started walking towards the door before pausing and looking back at the angry officer in the room

"May I know your name?"

Lucas clenched his fists and gritted his teeth in anger as he watched the criminal go free

"Knight....Lucas knight, remember the name because I will put you behind bars one day!"

Ace smirked flirtatiously as he looked at Lucas and whispered before leaving the interrogation room

"Catch me if you can, Mr.knight"

With that ace walked out of the station into the limo brought by pheonix and left for good.
