I was a knight in the Middle Ages

Chapter 208 New Power Alliance

"Are you Alpha? Come with us now, we have something to ask you." A policeman urged impatiently.

"Who are you? What's the matter? Do you want to ask me to go back for questioning, or to arrest me?" There was no way Alpha would follow them and leave obediently just based on the other party's words.

It is worth noting that Cross's management is extremely chaotic. Here, officials, capitalists, and nobles do not have absolute advantages, which leads to a situation where whoever is stronger has the right to speak. As long as Alpha is strong enough, he can completely ignore the other party's summons.

"Are you trying to resist our Police Department?" the young policeman shouted.

"What? Can you represent the Police Department, the government, the authorities? Or do you have some unspeakable secrets in taking me away?" In fact, Alpha did not intend to confront the authorities. After all, the Orff family, a big capitalist aristocracy, was still eyeing them. He did not want to make new enemies.

"I'm sorry, Lord Alpha, we just want you to go back and ask a few questions. We really don't mean anything else." Looking at the knights who surrounded him, the captain finally spoke.

"If you want to question me, I'm willing to cooperate. But why are you so fierce?" Alpha took the lead without saying a word, and led several policemen to the police station.

However, Alpha was also trying to show off his strength. Behind him were three hundred fully armed knights. He had replaced the family's original knights with real black-armored dragon knights through rotation during the week. In addition, he also asked some servants to join the training in disguise.

"Lord Alpha, we are just going to question you. It is not appropriate for you to do this." Three hundred knights, fully armed, marched towards the Security Office aggressively. People who didn't know would have thought that the Security Office was about to encounter a disaster.

"Won't Cross allow us to march freely?" Alpha did this on purpose. He opened his shirt to show off his strong muscles. He wanted to let the mice hiding in the dark clearly see how powerful he was.

"You just wait outside. If I don't come out after an hour, you know what to do!" Alpha gave Gun a meaningful look.

"Yes, Lord Alpha, I will follow your orders." Gunn understood what he meant. He stared at everyone fiercely and signaled his men to surround the security office. A tense atmosphere filled the air, as if a fierce conflict was about to break out.

Alpha followed the police to the police station, and planned every step in his mind. Although he had to face the chaotic power structure of Cross, he knew that a calm mind and sharp vision were his most powerful weapons.

After entering the security hall, he was taken to an interrogation room. The lights were dim, and an official in official uniform sat behind the table with a serious face. "Alpha, do you know why you were brought here?" The official said straight to the point.

Alpha smiled slightly, and this smile concealed all his confidence and strategy. "I think this has something to do with my recent business activities, which may have touched the interests of some people." His words were as calm as water, but every word was precious, revealing his deep understanding of the current situation.

The official frowned slightly, obviously not expecting Alpha to be so calm. "Your behavior has caused unrest among the nobles and officials. Do you know how much risk this means for you and your family?"

"Risks and opportunities always coexist." Alpha responded calmly, his eyes gleaming with a glimmer of a planned strategy. "I am just holding up a mirror for them to see their own greed."

This psychological game lasted for a while, and Alpha never revealed any flaws. He cleverly used every opportunity to demonstrate his wisdom and courage, making the officer who interrogated him gradually feel the pressure of being forced to re-evaluate the person in front of him.

At the same time, the three hundred knights outside the guard hall were like a black torrent, quietly waiting. Their presence showed that Alpha not only had strong personal power, but also had the support of a large family. This public display of power sent a clear message to the opponent: Alpha was not alone.

Eventually, after a heated exchange of words, Alpha managed to convince the officer that arresting Alpha was not the best option.

"What on earth do you want to do? Do you want to attack our officials? Do you want to make enemies with the entire empire?" the official roared.

"That depends on what exactly you want to do. You still have twenty minutes. Without my news, I don't know whether they will take actions that cross the line." Alpha's tone was calm, but the threat was self-evident.

"Do you really think that our Security Department is easy to bully and can be manipulated by you? Do you really think you can do whatever you want with just the few people you have?" The other party was obviously angry.

"However, it's easy for me to destroy this place." Alpha's confidence shocked the other party so much that he was speechless.

"Dear Mr. Alpha, I am Shuri, the supreme commander here. Are you going to go against our officials?" Seeing that his subordinates were unable to subdue Alpha, Shuri had to take action himself.

"I don't want to be an enemy of anyone, but I will never be a lamb to be slaughtered. As long as you behave yourself, we will naturally live in peace. As the saying goes, every wrong has its perpetrator and every debt has its creditor. What exactly do you want from me this time?" Seeing the other side's big shot coming on the scene, Alpha stopped talking nonsense.

"Three days ago, an extremely serious murder occurred in the suburban square. Someone witnessed it and said it was you who did it. What do you have to say about this?" Xiuli went straight to the point and questioned Alpha directly.

"I don't know about any murder, I just know that I was attacked. These people were not strong enough and were killed by us in self-defense." Alpha refused to admit that he was involved in the murder and fight.

"So many people died, and you still say it was self-defense?" The minor official roared in anger.

"There are as many as two hundred gangsters, and I have less than fifty. They planned to intercept me. Do you think I should just sit there and wait for death, or fight back?" Alpha narrowed his eyes and asked back.

"You could have asked our security department for help, but you did nothing?"

"Do you think I can leave?" Of course Alpha can escape, but why should he escape? It's not like he can't win.

In the tense confrontation, Alpha's attitude was firm and clear, and he had no intention of backing down. He would not admit any accusation without solid evidence, because he knew that only strength was fundamental here. Commander Xiu Li knew that the man in front of him was no ordinary person, but a man who had experienced many battles and was both wise and brave.

The incident in the suburban square has attracted widespread attention and public outcry. If it is not handled properly, the National Security Bureau will face huge pressure and doubts. Xiu Li's expression gradually eased, and he decided to use a more peaceful way to solve the problem.

"Mr. Alpha, I understand your position." Xiu Li's voice was calm and firm, "But you should also understand that this incident must have a fair investigation. We can work together to find a third party to conduct the investigation. If you are indeed just acting in self-defense, the law will give you a fair judgment."

Alpha's response was sonorous and powerful, and his voice revealed his firm defense of his own reputation and the honor of his family. "Commander, I have no intention of being an enemy of the authorities, but I will never allow anyone to defame my reputation and the dignity of my family. I am willing to cooperate with the investigation, but I have a few conditions."

Alpha clearly expressed his demands, and he knew how to gain the most benefit for himself in this game. After a moment of contemplation, he realized that Alpha's demands were not excessive and were reasonable.

"Yes, we will arrange it as soon as possible to ensure the fairness of the investigation and protect the safety of your people during the investigation." Xiu Li gave an affirmative answer.

The conversation between the two gradually eased the tense situation, but they both understood that this was just the prelude to this high-IQ game, and the real challenge had just begun. Alpha knew that he not only had to deal with the official investigation, but also had to be wary of the enemies who were ready to move in the dark.

"What on earth do you want to do? This is our Security Bureau. You can't come and go as you please!" The young official watched Alpha stand up and prepare to leave, and shouted at him at the top of his voice.

"It will be an hour in five minutes. Do you want to turn this place into a river of blood?" Alpha smiled, but this smile seemed like a threat from the god of death.

"Don't worry, I will let them leave here and give you another hour to question them." After getting Xuri's permission, Alpha got up and asked Gun to retreat twenty meters and stop surrounding the security office.

"However, according to past practice, you seem to have overstepped the rules. The war between nobles should be resolved by ourselves, as long as outsiders are not affected. But this time you are clearly biased towards the other side." Alpha questioned the other party with a smile as soon as he came back.

"This is because there is a huge gap in strength between the two sides. With the family behind you, I'm afraid you are no match for them. Moreover, I heard that the Gust family has been plagued by internal strife recently, and its strength has been greatly damaged." Xiuli got involved for this reason.

"We are integrating resources and abandoning all those who are disobedient. Believe it or not, we are now ten times stronger than before. Don't just look at the surface, that family is just strong on the outside but weak on the inside. I suggest you just watch from afar and don't get involved." Alpha raised the corners of his mouth, obviously this was not only a reminder, but also a warning.

"This is the territory of our Fatalia Empire. As long as someone commits a crime, we have the right to exercise jurisdiction." The small official couldn't help but sneer.

"Don't fool yourself here. Look, who here takes you seriously? Only fists can speak. Give me three months, and I can definitely drive that guy out of Cross." Alpha reminded loudly. Obviously, these words were not spoken to the people in front of him, but to the people behind them.

"Don't overestimate your own abilities." This sentence is like a sharp sword, piercing the speaker's heart. It conveys not only a kind of contempt, but also a deep doubt of the other party's ability. However, time is often the best witness. Those who think it is impossible may just be because they don't have enough ability to achieve it.

At this time, Alpha's voice suddenly broke the silence. "Commander Shuri, I think the atmosphere in Cross is not good. I have a suggestion. Are you willing to listen to it?" His words revealed a firmness and determination.

Xiu Li fell into thought. He was used to staying neutral, just like before, just responsible for delivering information without favoring any side. After all, examples of the few defeating the many and the weak defeating the strong are not uncommon in the long river of history.

However, Alpha's proposal made him open his eyes wide, and an irrepressible excitement surged in his heart. Because this was exactly what he had always longed for - in Cross, there should be only one voice, and this voice should not be biased towards any party.

"If you don't bring anyone with you, we can solve all problems." This sentence carries a kind of confidence and power, which makes people curious about the speaker's ability.

"I hope you will consider it carefully." Alpha stopped arguing with the young official, his eyes firm and calm.

"What do you want?" Xiu Li was obviously moved by Alpha's proposal. He began to realize that this proposal might bring great changes to Cross.

Alpha smiled slightly, his eyes sparkling with wisdom. "Organize a meeting and gather all the powerful people in Cross. Let's discuss together how to improve Cross's business environment. Business matters should be handled by the business itself, not by fists." His words were like a breeze, blowing away the fog of Cross's business world.
