Chapter 721 It Was Suspicious
Maximilian winked at Flora, and said softly, "Show your certificate to him."
Flora took out her certificate, held her head up and handed it to Read, "Look at it, and you''ll get nothing
to say."
Read took a look at it and his eyes widened. He checked the certificate several times, and finally
returned it to Flora.
"Well... I need to call the leader for instructions, please wait a minute."
Then Read walked back to the gate house quickly and picked up the phone on the desk.
Flora put away her certificate and snorted, arrogantly like a peacock.
Read quickly put down the phone and walked out again, "I will take you to talk with Director Nicholson.
He is in charge of security."
"Thank you." Maximilian was very grateful to Read. If it weren''t for Read, he might have to spare more
efforts.
Read led Maximilian and Flora to the office area and made a brief introduction of their factory.
When he reached the door of the security office, Read knocked on the door.
"Come in."

Read opened the door and walked in, "Director Nicholson they are Mr. Lee, the security minister of the
Topyuan Group, and Miss Flora from the Secret Investigation Department."
Director Nicholson raised his head and nced at them, "Read told me about you and he can
coordinate with you to deal with that matter. He used to be a police officer. He had experience of
solving crimes and can help you get familiar with the factory. But the production area is forbidden."
Director Nicholson nced at Read, and waved his hand gently, indicating him to take them away.
"Okay, Director Nicholson. I will definitely cooperate fully. Then we won''t bother."
Taking Maximilian and Flora out of the office, Read said with embarrassment, "It''s hard to be a good
person. I will help you with it. Do you want to check the surveince video or visit the factory?"
"No. Find a quiet ce and I''ll ask you a few questions. "Maximilian wanted to hit the subject for there
was no so much time left.
He came here to lure the snake out of hole.
Read took a surprised look at Maximilian, walked to the next office, and took out the key to open the
door, "Let’s talk about it here. This is my office, but I don’t usually use it."
Don''t you usually use it? Maximilian felt that Read''s words were a little bit strange, as if he wanted to
emphasize something deliberately.
Read opened the door, walked in, then pulled away the curtains and opened the window.
"I don''t use this office frequently. It may have an unpleasant odor. Hope you don''t mind. Do you need
me to spray some air freshener?"
Without Maximilian''s reply, he had already picked up the air freshener from the table and sprayed it in
the room.
Maximilian nced at where the air freshener was ced.
It was in the middle of the table where he could easily reach it. Usually this kind of object was not used
frequently and should be kept in the corner.
However, Read''s air freshener was ced within easy reach and seemed to be used frequently.
Maximilian sat in a chair, thinking about the smell when he entered the door just now.
It was rather weird, but he was sure that it wasn''t a strange smell caused by the longck of air
cirction.
Maximilian carefully observed every corner and detail of the room, feeling very strange.
Commonly used items were ced in the corners, while less frequently used ones were easily
essed.
For example, toolboxes, circuit boards, and some old-fashioned appliances such as walkmans and
MP3s that had been disassembled.
Maximilian noticed that there were some old newspapers in the trash can in the corner which had been
yellowed by time.
Read put down the air freshener and smiled awkwardly.
"It''s very messy here. I usually tinker with small objects, especially disassembling some small electrical
appliances and studying their circuit structure. Don''t be surprised."
He took three bottles of mineral water from the box in the corner and put them on the table. Then he
smiled and said, "I don''te often, so I didn''t prepare hot water. Let''s drink mineral water."
After passing them to Maximilian and Flora, Read sat down with a gentle smile, "What do you want to
ask? I will tell you all if I know."
"I heard Director Nicholson say that you were a police officer before. Why are you acting as a security
guard here? "Maximilian asked curiously.
Maximilian was very curious about Read''s identity, and felt that he was one of the killers.
Maximilian affirmed that Read didn’t take action alone and was a pivotal figure of a certain killer gang.
Read was dull for a while, for he didn''t expect Maximilian to ask such a question, "This... Can I not
answer? "
Maximilian shook his head decisively. Read''s straight back instantly bent, and he revealed an
expression of pain.
"I used to be an undercover agent. At that time, the boss of my organization suspected me, and I had
only two choices. One was to prove myself and the other was to escape.
In such a situation, I had no choice. So I discussed with my superior and wanted to get away, but he
wasn''t willing to give up. After all, we struck to win their trust and had been undercover for two years in
the organization.
He persuaded me to stick to it. For the ridiculous justice, I stayed in that organization. Butter, the
boss caught him. To survive, he intended to betray me I had no choice but to kill him in order to avoid
exposure. "
Read already shed tears and pulled his hair hard with both hands, "My life is saved, and the
organization is destroyed. But I was guilty, so I applied to be transferred from the police team to be a
security guard here."
Read leaned weakly on the back of the chair, covering his eyes with his hands. Tears streamed down
through his fingers, and he looked sad.
"Sorry, I didn''t know it was such a sad story." Maximilianforted him, but stared at his hand and his
side face.
Read''s little finger and cheeks trembled slightly, as if he was gritting his teeth.
Seeing his subtle expression, Maximilian chuckled lightly. He picked up the tissue box on the table,
took out a few tissues and handed them to Read.
