Chapter 773
773 The Use of the Children
“Stop talking.” Ivarick finally revealed his true colors. “I will not tell you who is behind this. You can go and look for yourself. Hahaha! You will never find them!” Ivarick had lost his mind.
“You Cascadians are no match for us! The tablets were only just the beginning. We just did not hide it well enough. Aren’t you part of the
Quinnell family? All of you will die a terrible death,” Ivarick said maniacally.
Wynter stood up. “If the tablets were just the start, what’s the next step? The children?”
Clearly, Wynter had guessed correctly as Ivarick’s expression stiffened a little.
“Even if you don’t tell me, I’ll be able to find some suspects in your records, someone high up in Kingbourne. He must be great at fortune–telling, and not to mention old. You said that I would not find out about it even if I tried.
“Going along this line of thought, the least likely suspect must be someone close to me.”
Ivarick looked a little flustered. He clenched the handcuffs tightly.
Wynter smiled. “Those children were sent to your chapel. You let them place the children there not only because they were worshipers, but because the children have their uses.”
Ivarick could barely breathe. He wanted to deny it, but Wynter did not give him a chance to talk at all. She immediately got people to take him away.
A person like him had been completely brainwashed. It would be pointless to continue the interrogation.
What uses did the children have? Wynter had already looked into them. They were all healthy children. They did not look like they had been selected randomly.
Wynter turned to a worshiper since she could not get anything out of Ivarick. The worshiper was sweating profusely. He looked at Wynter.
“Ma’am, I was only dealing with the children. I didn’t know that there would be Foplyan soldiers in that chapel. If I had known, I would surely not do this! I am not a traitor to my country!”
Wynter did not have the patience to listen to him. “Those children. Who were you helping to traffic? What uses do they have? Be honest. I’ll only give you this one chance.”
At that, the worshiper’s palms were sweating even more. He looked around as if he was afraid of someone who was not there.
“Ma’am, can you promise me I will be alive if I tell you about it?”
*The sentence depends on your cooperation.” Wynter spun a pen in her hand. Her gaze darkened. “As for the other things you mentioned, no one would dare to interfere in the Top Unit.”
The worshiper got closer to Wynter. “I’m sure you know there are a lot of rumors going around.
“Recently, there is one that said that if one wanted to become young, they had to have more children. around, as their blood was the most natural form of elixir.”
773 The Use of the Children
“Elixir? What the hell?” Wynter’s gaze turned cold.
The worshiper looked around and said in a suppressed tone, “The medium had a prescription. Drinking one dose would make one younger by a few months. Only his prescription made one feel alive again.”
“You said that this superstition has been making its rounds recently. Who is the one passing it?” Wynter asked. “List them all out. The more you list, the lighter your sentence.”
The worshiper was a little hesitant. He licked his lips and asked, “Can you really ensure my survival?”
they do?”
“I promise.” Wynter handed the pen to him. “Explain while you write. What did
The worshiper paused for a while. Initially, he did not want to write at all, but he then realized he had already been arrested. He had to bank on this to ensure his future.
Then, he wrote everything down.
