Chapter 571: The higher chain of command
“If you are asking if I told them anything, I did not. I can guarantee you that. If the two knew something, it did not come from me.” He denied saying anything to the two, ensuring that his face did not reveal anything that would make him suspect anything.
Lying about that was easy for him. In this line of work, he had to be good at everything to save his skin. That included making excuses and lying to his teeth to get away with something.
“Then, can we count on you to check what they know and report back to us?” Mike questioned him as if he was giving him a choice.
However, he could tell that he had only one option. To do what they were asking him to do. He knew better than to cross them. Not until he guaranteed that he and his family would be safe.
“Of course, you can count on me to determine what they could possibly know. Dani believes that I am a friend.” Samson tried to convince the man that his loyalty still lied to the organization and their boss.
At this time, there was no assurance that he was safe nor his family, despite the promise given to him by Dani. Based on the range of the influence that the underground organization had.
He had no way of knowing who else he could trust. Just now, this man managed to come and visit him, probably without the knowledge of the district attorney.
.....
He was even unsure if the man guarding him was here to protect him or kill him if he managed to piss off the boss. All he knew now was he was not safe, not yet. His family was still in danger if he did not do what they asked him to do.
“Well, I am not sure if you have gained her trust or she was the one manipulating you,” Mike said as he stood from the couch and assessed him from head to toe. “Anyway, we will know at the result of this case.”
The man fixed his coat, tapping his palm to straighten the crease formed when he sat down on the couch, then buttoned up the rest of the buttons.
“By the way, if anyone should take the fall in this case, it should be Nick. After all, this was entirely his idea.” Mike reminded him. He did not need to spell out what he meant by that.
“I am sure that you will want to wrap this case immediately. Your mother and sisters will probably miss your company if this drags on.” He quickly added.
There was no threat in his voice. It actually sounded like a genuine concern for his well-being and family. However, he could not be fooled by the subtle implications in his word.
“As you said, my family will surely miss me. Therefore, I will wrap this up as soon as possible. Nick will definitely rot in jail.” He had to say what this man wanted to hear.
The man stared at him as if he was reading his facial expression. Then, he again extended his hand. This time, he grabbed it and shook it firmly, making sure to seal the deal.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
“Thank you for seeing me. I hope that you get the justice that you deserve.” The man spoke, moving away from him, walking towards the hallway that would lead to the exit of the house.
On the other hand, he decided to make dinner. He was hungry and had nothing else to do at the moment. He would have to think of his next moves while eating.
Shortly after, the guard who came to his room showed up and walked towards him. The guard only stopped when he was already close to him.
“Who was that? He seems to be new.” He asked the guard, who started picking on his food.
He did not mind sharing what he had prepared with them. There was always more than enough supplies to last them a month, and they continued to replenish it every week.
It was also a perfect opportunity to bond with them and win their trust. He needed to know whose hands he put his life with. At the moment, he needed to investigate more on their backgrounds.
“Did he not introduce himself to you?” The man looked at him funnily as if that was a dumb question to ask.
He continued to eat his share of the food, taking a break from his assignment, knowing that his partner was on the job. They usually took a turn in taking a break.
“Well, he did say his name, but I want to know more about him.” He did not want to seem suspicious of the man, just curious.
He thought that this man might know something more than he did. After all, he did pass their very stringent scrutiny. He must have shown them his credentials.
That was if this man in front of him had no clue of his visitor’s involvement in the underground group. It would tell him if he could trust this man, in a way.
“According to the papers that passed through the system, he is a new member of the district attorney who would be handling your case.” The guard said with a shrug of his shoulder as he continued to eat his dinner.
“That is all I know.” He continued after swallowing the food in his mouth.
“Well, I know that part, but I wish I have more information about him.” He lied to the man, even though his visitor never supplied that fact to him, but what he just learned was gold.
He just confirmed that the man was planted in the DA’s office to spy on him and the prosecution team. He was placed there to secure the conviction of Nick.
At the same time, to guarantee the safety of the organization and their boss from prosecution.
It was clear that whoever Mike was, he was not any ordinary member of the underground organization. He must be someone in the higher chain of command.
