Chapter 1275
Bruce had been sleeping for nearly ten hours when he woke up groggily. Aria had been by his side, and when she saw him wake up, she immediately leaned in to check on him, softly saying, "Bruce, you're awake?"
Bruce lifted his eyelids heavily and first saw Aria's worried face.
"Ugh..." Bruce mumbled as if in a dream, thinking he might be dreaming. "Aria, is that you..."
Aria smiled as she heard him and replied, "Yes, it's me!"
Bruce asked, "How did you end up here?"
"I've been around here all along. I learned you came to South Elmerton a few days ago, so I specifically waited for you in this small town."
After all, this was the only way to the northern sea.
After all, this was the only way to the northern sea. As long as she waited here, she could meet up with him.
Bruce rubbed his head and staggered to sit up, feeling numb. "Where's Miya?"
After saying that, he hurriedly looked around for Miya. If he let her escape, it would attract even more trouble.
Darcy said, "She almost escaped. Fortunately, Miss Bridges arrived in time and subdued her again."
"She's locked up in another room now."
Bruce breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this. "Well, that's a relief!"
"Take me to interrogate her immediately. We must find out how to enter Paradise Island," Bruce insisted.
After saying that, Bruce staggered to his feet, eager to interrogate Miya. Unfortunately, he got up too quickly and almost fell before he could fully recover the use of his limbs. Seeing this, Aria quickly went forward to support him and said gently, "Bruce, be careful not to fall."
"I'm fine."
"Let me help you over!"
Five minutes later, Aria assisted Bruce to a hut in the back.
Due to the cultural difference, the houses here were all made of wood or straw huts. They were all very simple, and there were no courtyard walls.
Miya was tied to a pillar with a cowhide rope.
"Tell me the exact location of Paradise Island, and how do you enter Paradise Island?" Bruce pressed with a menacing tone.
Miya looked blank, keeping her head down without saying a word.
"You're not going to tell me, are you?" Bruce asked ominously.
Miya raised her head slightly, a sly look on her face. "I'm covered in injuries now, and my brain can't remember clearly. What do you want me to say?" "Don't play games with me. I'll cut out your tongue if you don't tell me."
"Hehe, even if I tell you, will I still be allowed to live?" Miya looked at Bruce contemptuously.
"Only I know where your daughter is. If you kill me, you can forget about seeing your daughter for the rest of your life," Miya taunted.
"Are you trying to test my patience?" Bruce said as he pinched her chin fiercely.
"Uh..." Miya trembled in pain and looked at Bruce even more seductively.
"Hehe, you won't dare to kill me!" she challenged.
"Do you want to give it a try?" Bruce's eyes turned cold. He was genuinely upset. He had never been someone who could be threatened.
Seeing this, Aria hurriedly went forward to stop him. "Bruce, don't be rash. Calm down first."
"If you kill her, the leads will be lost again," she reminded.
When Bruce heard this, he suppressed his murderous intent and let go of her resentfully.
Outsiders could not enter Paradise Island at all. Since she could come and go as she pleased, she must know the secret to entering Paradise Island.
"Mr. Everett, we can torture her to extract a confession. I don't believe she won't tell us."
"This isn't gonna work."
"Aria, don't you know how to hypnotize? Why don't you try hypnotizing her?"
"Hypnosis is only useful for people with weak consciousness. Since she can become a special agent of District 17, her self-will must have a very high defense."
"This won't work, that can't work. Are we just going to be apprehensive like this?"
"Don't worry, there must be other ways," Aria reassured.
"Let me talk to her."
"That's the only option."Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.
