100 Days to Seduce the Devil-Chapter 249 Another Group Intervened

Day Twenty Seven...

~~*****~~

Spade slammed his eyes shut behind that blindfolds. He clenched his fist and mumbled, "Just kill me. I don't know."

'I can't betray Dragon Lord. I was indebted to him. I swore to devote my life to him, serving him.' Spade was determined to keep his mouth shut, not disclosing information about Phantomflake's whereabouts.

Chantha sighed deeply, hissing and clicking her tongue. "Tsk, Tsk, Tsk... What a pity. Do I have to break your bones, punch your gorgeous face and cut your fingers one by one just to make you confess?" Chantha has become serious now. Her playfulness disappeared.

"I've given you a chance. An easy way out to save your ass. But you chose the hard way. Do I need to remove your nails one by one?" Chantha lifted his chin and pinched his jaw using one hand.

Spade felt scared just imagining her words but he maintained his brave front as if he was willing to die anytime.

'Just endure it... for the Dragon Lord.'

Chantha got off his lap and scanned the row of weapons on the tablea��� different sizes of knives, daggers, pliers, hammer, needles, guns, ropes, wires, whip, iron, and others.

Chantha picked up the dagger. Then she pressed the tip of the dagger into Spade's neck. "I can slit your throat now. But I need answers from you. You are a hacker, right? What would you feel if you had to see your hands without fingernails while typing on your keyboards?" Chantha began threatening him once again, reaching for the pliers.

Those thoughts sent chills down his spine. But he had to be brave and endure the pain. Chantha put down her dagger and used her free hand to hold his fingers.

Spade was crying inwardly. He wanted to shout for help! If only somebody could help him in this very hopeless situation.

"Should I start cutting your fingers as well, aside from pulling out your nails?" Chantha used the plier to pinch and hold the tip of his fingernail.

Spade began to tremble. Would he lose his fingernails... his fingers and his hands?

'I prefer to die if I can no longer hold my laptop and do the things I usually do!' Spade had already conditioned himself to die after this torture.

Chantha was about to squeeze the pliers and pull out his fingernail on his pinky finger when suddenly they heard an announcement from the speaker.

"The Supreme Leader has arrived!" Axel's voice resounded in the interrogation room. This room was also considered as the Torture Room. Axel's announcement made Chantha stop.

Chantha and Violet turned their heads to the glass window. Though they couldn't see the people behind that glass wall window, they could tell that Axel and Nathan were standing in the next room, just watching them.

After five seconds, the door of the interrogation room slid open. Nathan showed up and Axel stood next to him. Nathan was holding a small briefcase that contained the truth serum. He got it from the facility.

"Use this," Nathan said coldly as he gazed at Spade with his sharp blue eyes.

Chantha put down the pliers. She no longer needed it. They knew that Nathan wanted to test the effectiveness of the newly upgraded Truth Serum. The serum he brought was much stronger than the truth serum he used for Abigail.

Violet approached Nathan to get the briefcase. She would be the one who would inject the truth serum into Spade's body.

Nathan had so many questions. He wondered why the Red Dragon Mafia found out that Phantomflake was alive and he was keeping her alive in their territory.

"Go, inject him with this..." Nathan handed the mini briefcase over to Violet.

Spade tried to struggle as he turned his head from left to right. He could hear them. They were talking about injecting him with something. What kind of drug was that?

Spade clenched his fists tightly. He was so nervous. He couldn't see his enemies, adding more tension and pressure on him. He was cornered by them.

After a while, he felt someone holding his wrist. Before he could react, a sharp thin needle pierced his flesh, injecting an unknown liquid into his veins.

'Damn it! Is that a poison?' Spade wondered to himself.

Nathan, Chantha, Violet, and Axel were just looking at Spade, waiting for the truth serum to take effect.

"Where are Joker and Spider? Did you hear any updates from them?" Nathan asked Axel as he realized that Team 2 was not around.

"No, Sir. Maybe, they haven't finished their mission yet. Let's just wait for them, Supreme Leader," Axel responded. He turned in Chantha's direction, smiling inwardly. Chantha could no longer act as she wanted since Nathan looked very serious. She knew when she had to behave.

"Do we have casualties during the attack?" Nathan asked the Soeung Twins, Chantha and Violet.

"None, Sir. Everyone is safe." Violet replied.

Nathan just bobbed his head and shifted his attention back to Spade. He was counting in his mind. Only two minutes had passed. According to Veronica, this upgraded version of Truth Serum would take effect after five minutes. The first version would take ten minutes before the effect could manifest.

This new version could also last for forty five minutes. The same side effect applied. Spade couldn't remember what he did or said while under the influence of the truth serum.

The group was still waiting for the truth serum to take effect when suddenly two men entered the interrogation room. Joker and Spider didn't look good. They had a grim expressions on their faces.

"What happened to your faces? Did something bad happen... perhaps, something went wrong during your mission? Did you lose against the Red Dragon Mafia?" Chantha spoke up first, asking the two men.

Spider and Joker exchanged meaningful glances with one another before bobbing their heads as a response.

Chantha immediately heaved a sigh of disappointment while Violet and Axel looked at the two men worriedly.

"Did we lose a lot of comrades? How many died?" Violet was enraged just thinking about it.

Axel's face also dimmed in frustration. He didn't expect that Spider and Joker would be defeated by the members of the Red Dragon Mafia.

Nathan's brows were drawn together in a deep frown. "Tell us what happened," he mumbled, his voice filled with authority.

Spider was the one who stepped forward, explaining what happened during their mission.

"We didn't do much. The moment we arrived at their hideouts, several men were already down. Another group launched a surprise attack against the Red Dragon Mafia. We only saw the injured men. The Branch Leader managing the hideout was gone." f𝐫ee𝘄ℯ𝚋no𝐯𝐞l.c𝘰m

Axel, Chantha, and Violet were taken aback when they heard that.

"Who destroyed our targets? Someone was ahead of us." Chantha commented, rubbing her chin.

Nathan narrowed his eyes. He suspected someone. But he wasn't sure if the person in his mind was responsible for what happened to the other hideouts of the Red Dragon Mafia.

"Any clue about the attackers?" Nathan turned to Joker. When it came to gathering information and intel, Joker was the right person to ask. This was his expertise since Joker was a profiler.

"I checked the CCTV Cameras... and gathered sample weapons and bullets scattered in the surroundings... It seems like the Sawada Clan had something to do with the attack."

Chantha gasped in disbelief. "Oh My Gosh! They turned their back on each other? Is this some kind of betrayal for both parties? I thought the two were having a deal?!"

Violet and Axel also bobbed their heads in amusement. On the other hand, Nathan was at a loss for words. He was right! The Sawada Clan was involved. He had never imagined that Mr. Hiroshi would make a move against the Red Dragon Mafia. He just tested the water but he reaped a good result.

'So he was serious when he told me he would catch the culprit. But I lied to him. I'm not certain if the Red Dragon Mafia ordered the hit to kill me. Did Mr. Hiroshi find out the truth that I lied?'

Nathan shook his head. He shouldn't think about other things. He had some important thing to do right now.

"Let's proceed with the interrogation." Nathan glanced at his wristwatch. Five minutes had already passed. Spade also began to murmur something.

Nathan moved closer to Spade, facing him. He dragged Spade's blindfolds. Spade kept blinking because he felt lightheaded and groggy.

He tried to clear his vision and focus his eyes on the person in front of him. "Oh, Nathan Sparks? The Leader of Syphiruz Mafia is here!! I'm glad to finally see you face to face! You are no longer a mystery to us!" Spade blurted out cheerfully. The new upgraded version of truth serum increased the capability of a person to be honest and expressed what he really wanted to say and what he felt.

Nathan had complicated emotions on his face when he heard that. This only meant that the Red Dragon Mafia was already aware of his real identity.

Nathan's comrades couldn't believe it! They were stunned for a moment, trying to absorb what Spade had just said.

"Supreme Leader, what are we going to do now?! Your identity is no longer a secret to our enemies," Spider expressed his concern.

"Our enemies might leak this important information to others..." Axel added. This was not good for their leader.

However, Nathan remained calm and unfazed. "It doesn't matter. The good thing is... the new upgraded truth serum is very effective."

"How did you know that Phantomflake is alive? Why did you take her?" Nathan asked Spade, looking at him intently with anticipation.

Spade chuckled for a moment before he answered him. "Because of Black Rose!"

Chantha: "Black Rose??!"
