625 Chapter 624 Brian was the Deputy Director of the Special Division. Although many people were loyal to old Mr. Sims, Brian’s contributions to the Special Division were indisputable. Therefore, once he spoke, everyone present, including Holly, straightened up and said, “Yes!” As the vigorous voices fell, the two previously divided sides immediately turned their heads in unison, glaring angrily at the representatives from Interpol. Having witnessed their dispute, the people of Interpol were dumbfounded. Fox had bought the person who came to take Vera away. Once he had Vera, he would hand her over to Fox. Fox had already made it clear that there would be infighting in the Special Division and that he just had to watch from the sidelines. But how come, just as they were enjoying the show, these two sides reconciled so quickly? The person working for Fox couldn’t figure it out and didn’t respond for a while. Brian approached him and said, “Sorry, but you can’t take this prisoner with you. The Special Division still has a caseload pending.” The head of Interpol immediately retorted, “Wasn’t it agreed that all cases would be combined and handled by us?” Brian simply said, “Our case isn’t part of that deal.” The person in charge became furious. “It’s not your call! She’s an international criminal. Your petty Special Division has no right to stop us from conducting our investigation! Please turn the prisoner over immediately!” Brian spread his hands. “I’m sorry, but we have a crucial case on our side, and the person can’t be transferred to you for the time being. If you have any objections, please communicate with our higher authority!” The person in charge was speechless. He stared at Brian before finally saying, “Since you’re not cooperating, let’s just stick to the old rules.” At these words, Keira raised her eyebrows. A new employee of the Special Division asked a veteran beside them, “What old rules?” “The Special Division is different from the other departments. The way we get things done has a bit of an old-school martial world feel…” The veteran employee scratched his head and searched for the right words. “That is, when there’s a dispute over a person or an item both sides want, we hold a competition in the ring.” “What kind of competition?” The new employee exclaimed in surprise. “Can we really do that?” The veteran employee coughed and continued in a lowered voice. “The Sims family used to have a high standing in the international martial world. Back in the day, to fight for Crera’s interests, they used this method many times. Otherwise, why do you think the Special Division has such a good relationship with the Freeman Sect? We’ve borrowed their people on more than one occasion!” The new employee was bewildered. Keira just lowered her gaze. Having learned about the close ties between the Special Division and the Freeman Sect, she had asked Holly for these details, so she knew all about it. The Sims family was indeed formidable. During a time when Crera was weak, they managed to secure numerous concessions from the international community through this approach. Now, the tables had turned, and the other side wanted to use this method to take a prisoner away. Brian squinted upon hearing this. He subconsciously touched the area around his chest. In his earlier years, he had devoted himself to martial training, but as he grew older and after suffering injuries, his capabilities declined over the years.

With those two around, there shouldn’t be any problems, should there? With that thought, Brian said, “Fine, let’s do it that way.” But almost immediately as his words fell, the person in charge of Interpol stepped aside, revealing the black-clad bodyguard who had been following him all along. The black-clad bodyguard had been wearing sunglasses and a mask, so no one had really noticed him until now. The person in charge pointed toward the bodyguard and announced, “This is our King. He’ll represent us in today’s martial contest.” On hearing this, the bodyguard immediately removed his sunglasses and mask, stretched his neck and wrists, and then took off his suit jacket, revealing his impressively muscular build. All members of the Special Division gasped in realization when they saw the foreigner. “King? The boxing champion?” “Heavens! Has he joined Interpol? He’s the one who defeated the previous champion and is regarded as the number one in the martial world today! It’s said that many have challenged him, but no one has ever won against him!” “Deputy Director Dawson, what do we do now? Luke and James are probably no match for him…” “Yeah, with such a figure, I can’t think of anyone we could use…” “How about the senior sister of the Freeman Sect?” “Are you crazy? The senior sister of the Freeman Sect isn’t even here. It’s rumored that she is very mysterious, always traveling abroad. How could she possibly be here now?” “Do you expect a Divine Weapon to descend from the heavens? Let’s come up with our own solution, maybe a relay fight?” “Do you know what sets the King apart from the other champions?” “What is it?” “He once knocked down twenty-five fighters in a row to enter the finals! And he didn’t lose even after that. The match only ended because the time was up!” “What? We don’t have twenty-five capable fighters in the Special Division, do we? What are we going to do?!” “Are we just supposed to stand by and watch Vera South be handed over? No way!” While everyone was talking amongst themselves, Keira suddenly chuckled. Was this Fox’s backup plan?
