CHAPTER 179 I AM NOT A SPY!!
"N-No…"
Edrea muttered.
Her face was already pale, her eyes were opened wide and by how her lips were quivering, it was clear that she was scared.
Very scared.
"N-No… I am not a spy sent by any kingdom… I am not a spy…"
"I AM NOT A SPY!!"
Edrea screamed in panic and fear!
"Miss Edrea… things are not decided by how loud you can speak them…"
The man sitting in front of Edrea muttered.
He was the same scholarly man who interrogated Edrea a day ago.
Right now, Edrea was inside the interrogation room, sitting on her knees, with her hands tied behind her back.
"Mr Brian, please trust me, I am not a spy! I will admit it, I am a killer! I am a murderer!
I murdered my competitors and rose to where I am today. The number of people I have killed is around 12. I was also the one who killed Mason.
I poisoned him.
I am a selfish, manipulative and scheming woman, however,
I am not a Spy!
Please!
Believe me!"
Edrea admitted all her crimes, her face was covered in with snot and tears. If anyone who doesn't know what she did saw her, he would find her pitiful.
Why was she crying?
Why was she admitting all her crimes?
Why was she so against being called a Spy?
Did she love her kingdom so much that even being called a spy filled her with disgust?
Of course not.
Edrea was a selfish woman.
She didn't care about the kingdom she lived in at all.
The reason she was so against being called a spy was due to her own selfishness.
She was scared.
If she is a murderer, the worse they will do is execute her.
However, if she were suspected to be a spy, things would change.
She would be interrogated and even tortured so that the kingdom could extract information from her.
And since she wasn't actually a spy.
There is no way she would know something that would satisfy the interrogators' curiosity.
What does that mean?
That means she will be tortured till she dies.
She will be tortured to death!
The worse possible way to die.
"Miss Edrea, this is the last letter you sent to your lover, Algerama, the spy. Is that true?" The scholar-like man, Brian questioned.
"N-No… I did not write that letter!" Edrea lied.
Then, a cold smile appeared on Brian's face as he suggested.
"I suggest you do not lie to us, Miss Edrea. You will only make things more difficult for yourself if you do that."
Then, a paper appeared in his hand as he continued,
"This is the paper where you wrote the room numbers of the room that needed to be cleaned and gave them to the cleaning department. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ ꪶ
The writing here, and the writing on the letter matches." Brian muttered, then, he glanced at Edrea and questioned again.
"This letter was written by you, is that correct, Miss Edrea?"
Edrea's mouth opened wide.
She couldn't believe her lie was exposed.
She now started panicking even more!
In the end, she started telling the truth.
"Yes, I was the one who wrote this letter.
However, the Algerama you are talking about is not a spy, he is Marquee Alger! I sent this letter to Marquee Alger!"
"Oh? Why did you send this letter to Marquee Alger?" Brian questioned.
"Marquee Alger wanted to get close to Head Maid Edda, however, Edda disagreed, no matter how much money he offered her, Edda rejected all of it.
In the end, Marquee Alger approached me, the subhead maid, what he needed was not Edda, but a head maid.
The plan was simple, he will get rid of Edda, and I will become the next head maid. In return, I will help him with whatever he asks me later.
The bird in that letter was indeed Edda,
I wrote these letters to update Marquee Alger about Edda's current movement so that he can plan and kill her."
"Hmm? But from the information we received from Marquee Alger said that Edda and he were rather close."
"That is a Lie that bastard came up with!
Why would Marquee Alger approach me if he was close to my superior!? There is no motive to do that!"
"As I said before, something won't become the truth if you say it louder, please lower your voice, Miss Edrea.
Also, if Marquee Alger was your ally, why would he out you and bring you here?"
"I don't know why he betrayed me! However, I am not lying! The letters he sent to me are there in my storage ring! Check the writing and match it with Marquee Alger's writing! I am sure you will find similarities!"
Brian furrowed his brows, he then picked Edrea's Space Ring and soon, a few letters appeared in his hand.
Then, a document appeared in his hand.
Alger was a Marquee, it wasn't hard for someone like Brian to find a piece of his writing.
He then started matching the two writings and then, he shook his head.
"They do not match, Miss Edrea. You lied to us,
Again."
Edrea's eyes widened in shock. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
How was this possible!?
All these letters were sent by Alger!
How can the writing not match!?
Soon, Edrea's eyes widened in realization,
"One of his subordinates must have written it!
Yes! I am sure of it!
You should check his subordinates' writing! You will find out that I am telling the truth!"
"Miss Edrea, Marquee Alger has hundreds of servants, you don't expect us to check everyone's writing do you?
What if the writing doesn't match?
Then would you say Marquee Alger found a random commoner to write the letter for him? Then would you ask us to check the writing of every commoner living in the Skyfall Kingdom?
Miss Edrea, there is a limit to how impractical and stupid your lie can be."
Then, a scary pressure emanated from Brian's body, his eyes turned colder than the ice and he warned,
"Miss Edrea, I suggest you tell us everything you know, tell us about the kingdom who supports you from behind the scenes, tell us what they want, tell us what your mission is,
Tell us everything, willingly and truthfully.
Otherwise, things will get painful for you."
"N-No…
I AM NOT A SPY!!"
