Deceptive Anya
They only granted ten minutes for the interrogation, and five minutes had already passed.
If they procrastinated, the time would end before the man could say anything useful.
As the man sensed Sonia’s impatience, the robber didn’t beat around the bush and said, “O-Of course,
I’ll tell you everything. A woman contacted me and offered 100,000 for me to wait at the mall entrance,
and she said that I must snatch two bags that a woman is holding if I see her walking toward a red
Benz.”
“A woman?” Toby asked that in a low voice, then looked at Sonia.
She nodded as she was sure that it was Anya.
“Is the woman sitting in a wheelchair?” She stared at the man to confirm it.
The robber nodded and said, “Yes! She’s in a wheelchair.”
“It’s Anya.” At this rate, Sonia had already confirmed the identity of the mastermind.
Toby clenched his fists. “She is bold and even exposed her identity before him.”
“It means she is confident he wouldn’t snitch on her.” She pointed at the regretful man and inquired,
“How did she contact you?”
The man raised his head and glanced at her timidly. “She contacted me online.”
“Online?” Sonia was surprised.
Toby understood what the man meant and explained, “Every circle has its own unique contact
information. This is an individual robber, but he is not the only one in Seafield. He probably belongs to
an organization, and every organization must have a group chat or website where they can contact
each other.”
“He’s right,” the man hurriedly agreed. “Besides robbery, we can also go into a brawl for you. For
example, you can hire our service by placing an order using our website if you are having a fight but
lack people to do your bidding. Moreover, you elites often order our service to act as a spy for the
competitor’s intelligence or steal their documents.”
“Wow… So, this service exists.” Sonia’s lips twitched as she was surprised.
Obviously, she never knew that one could place an order for someone to fight and steal.
Seeing her surprised expression, Toby chuckled. “Indeed, he’s right. Some company elites don’t want
to get their hands dirty to let others get hold of their weakness, so they choose to enlist those
scoundrels instead. They have tricks to get the job done, so some companies are keen to let them do
their dirty job.”
“Did you enlist for their help before?” She looked at him.
Toby shook his head. “No. I have a lot of talents under my command, so I don’t need them at all.”
Sonia nodded and stopped asking. Then, she frowned and wondered, “Anya knows of the existence of
this organization and even placed an order. Who exactly is she?”
If I didn’t know about this organization, then it isn’t public to ordinary people. However, Anya knows
about them. How curious.
However, Sonia didn’t overthink this. After all, the police were bringing Anya over.
She just needed Anya to spit out the truth to get her answer.
“If she used 100,000 to hire you, it means that she is just an ordinary client to you. Why did you refuse
to snitch her out?” Sonia looked at the man with frustration.
If Anya is just an ordinary client to him, it means that there is no need for him to hide Anya. After all,
there is no benefit for him to hide her for long if she isn’t someone significant. However, this man tried
to take the secret to his grave. If Toby hadn’t interrogated him, I’m afraid he would never speak the
truth. Moreover, there must be other reasons for him to do that.
Toby slightly raised his lips with pride as he saw Sonia quickly identifying the suspicious point.
As expected of my lover, she is so intelligent.
“I wanted to snitch on her, but I can’t.” The man looked pained. “That woman threatened me with my
girlfriend and said she would send someone to hurt my girlfriend if I ever snitched on her. So, I have no
other way but to keep her identity a secret.”
“But you still told us about her.” Sonia glanced at him.
It seems that his girlfriend isn’t worth that much to him.
He understood the hidden meaning in her words and muttered in an aggrieved tone, “It’s not my fault.
You tortured me, so—”
“So what? You still snitched on her, which means that your girlfriend isn’t that important to you, at least
not as important as yourself.” Sonia mercilessly exposed him.
His mouth was agape, but he said nothing because he understood what he had done perfectly and was
ashamed of him.
Toby glanced at the man with contempt and looked at Sonia. He promised, “Don’t worry. I won’t be like
him. I would never give you up if I were him.”
“Yes, I believe in you.” She looked at him and nodded.
She genuinely believed in him, and those words weren’t mere words to her.
Toby’s upbringing determined that he would never sacrifice an innocent person for his safety.
Therefore, she could trust his promises without hesitation.
His brows softened and showed a slight smile when he saw that she believed him.
“Okay. You said that Anya threatened you with your girlfriend so that you would not snitch on her. Then
tell me this: why are you convinced that she will really hurt your girlfriend?” She stared at the man and
asked.
The man sighed. “Of course. I never mentioned my girlfriend on the website, so no one should know
about her. However, my client knows about her existence and even accurately stated my girlfriend’s
home address. What does that mean? It means that she is not an ordinary person. Otherwise, how
could she have known about those details?”
This time, Sonia couldn’t refute his statements.
Of course, Anya urgently hired this man to rob my bags. Therefore, it is impossible to know his
background in such a short time. To investigate one’s background, she would need to spend a lot of
time doing that. One also needs special rights to check on a stranger’s background. However, Anya did
the impossible in such a short time. This shows that there is an unknown force supporting her.
Toby had also arrived at the same conclusion, which caused his face to turn nasty.
I had asked Tom to check Anya’s background before. The result shows that she is just an ordinary
citizen with a small fortune. However, what she did clearly indicates that she isn’t just an average
person. This makes the information I have on my hands unreliable. I believe that my subordinates did
their best, and they would never create a fake profile to deceive me. The only explanation is that
something is wrong with Anya herself. She conceals her true identity and presents herself as an
ordinary person.
Good job. A job well done, Anya. I thought you were just an insignificant ant, and I didn’t expect you to
be someone with hidden depths!
“I’m going out to make a call.” Toby released his fingers from the man’s neck and took out his cell
phone while telling Sonia.
She knew he would contact his subordinate to investigate Anya’s identity, so she nodded with a serious
expression. “Sure.”
He patted her head and left.
