Ricky kept changing expressions, as if he had something to say. But he understood that the Lowe family would chase him to the ends of the earth, even if Harvey spared his life.
Harvey glanced calmly at Ricky; he naturally knew what a small fry like that was thinking.
“Take him away. Give him half an hour. Dig a deeper hole if he doesn’t give us anything useful.
The Great Protector and the others nodded respectfully before quickly dragging Ricky away.
Devon, who had been watching everything, instinctively shivered.
He wanted to scream at Harvey and the others to let Ricky go; after all, it was a blatantly humiliating thing for him to watch everything unfold in front of his eyes.
That said, he wasn’t an idiot. He knew that he’d end up more horribly than Ricky if he said a single word.
Even the Great Protector, Kaysen, and Ridge would be enough to make his life a living hell, let alone Harvey.
Alani suddenly spoke up at this moment.
“Isn’t that a little overboard, Sir York?
“Ricky’s the best witness we have! We should be taking him away!
“We’ll prove Mr. Quill’s innocence once we let the police handle this!
“Even if you get anything out of him, the police wouldn’t acknowledge them since this is an interrogation!”
“Are you teaching me how to do things?” Harvey said, glaring at Alani.
Alani quickly changed expressions.
“Don’t forget! I have the World Civilization Department behind me!
“Uncivilized actions such as this is considered an act of violence!
“The organization will not approve of this!”
“An act of violence?”
Harvey smiled faintly.
“Ms. Alani, I’ve been holding myself back for Quill’s sake.
“You bring a group of Islanders here, and scream at us while talking about how civilized you people are…
“Is the organization just a tool for your double standards now?
“Letting your people interrogate him would be considered a civilized act?”
Alani was both enraged and fearful. “You’ve crossed the line!”
“Don’t get angry. Ricky doesn’t have the mental cultivation technique. If he did, Quill wouldn’t have died for this. That’s why it doesn’t matter who interrogates him,” Harvey said.
Alani changed expression again; she didn’t think Harvey could already tell what she was thinking. Quill’s justice didn’t matter to her, but the mental cultivation technique was another story.
The Gibson family were showing odd expressions, and their faces darkened. They thought Alani came to support them, yet she had the same goal as everyone else as well.
A strange silence engulfed the place.
Ten minutes later, Ricky was dragged back in front of Harvey.
Snake smiled at Harvey. “This man won’t do, Sir York. The moment Veinoil stuck out its tongue, he instantly told us everything.
