Chapter 696

Sage, however, stopped Ashton as he stared intently at Emmanuel, frowning

slightly. He also thought that he had gotten the wrong person. Maybe this

Emmanuel isn’t the one from the Northern Region.

Although the information on the Northern Region Wolf Warrior Unit was an

S–rank secret, and information on the Wolf Warrior was an SSS–rank secret,

he and that man used to be comrades who went through lethal dangers

together. How could he not know the man’s name?

“Um, yes, that’s how it is… Sir, can I leave now? My wife is still waiting for me at

home…” Emmanuel continued putting on the poor citizen act, shifting his tone

on purpose.

However, when Sage heard his words, he remained motionless for a long

time, Emmanuel could feel the burning gaze looming over him and felt

extremely uncomfortable.

“Can you raise your head?” Sage insisted, speaking slowly.

“Sir, I’m not some beautiful woman. What’s there to see about me?” For the

sake of hiding his identity, Emmanuel had to keep the show going. He did not

want more people to know about his identity, or it would affect his mission to

slay the country’s enemies in the future!

Still, Sage managed to replace something fishy as he slowly walked up to

Emmanuel. He was an investigation team captain and a grade one

inspector, having solved countless cases in the past, including international

ones. His senses were extremely keen, so how could Emmanuel hide

anything from him?

Ashton was confused by what she was witnessing right now. How could Sage

be so polite to this b*stard? She had worked with Sage for three years but

had never seen the cold man treating anyone this way!

To her surprise, Emmanuel refused to look up, and Sage did not dare to force

him to raise his head. Rather, he took the initiative to get down on one knee,

then looked up at Emmanuel’s face from below.

What is going on?! Ashton was so shocked that she would be burnt to a crisp

if she got an actual electric shock.

On the other hand, Sage’s eyes lit up as elation colored his face. No doubt

about it. He was completely certain. It is him, right here! The one I’ve been

searching for for the past three years!

Although he did not know why Emmanuel refused to acknowledge him, he

believed he had gotten the right person. “Greed and brutality reign in the

battlefield, but we sustain on bonds of brotherhood!” He could not hold in his

excitement as he recited their slogan back then.

These were words of wisdom Emmanuel had once said to his subordinates

when they were carrying out a mission in the Northern Region. On the brutal

battlefield, wolves had to be merciless to their enemies; they would never be

tamed!

However, wolves were also beasts that operated in packs. They valued

sacrifice and were willing to sacrifice themselves so that the group could

survive. Such was the Northern Region Wolf Warrior Unit!

Still, when Emmanuel heard the slogan, he could only sigh in exasperation.

The decision he made back then had already betrayed his creed as a Wolf

Warrior. Due to his decision, the Wolf Warrior Unit ended up in shambles. Even

today, he felt guilty because of it.

So, he had no choice but to keep faking it. “What’s going on? Why are you

reciting poems all of a sudden? Can I please go home now? I miss my wife

and son and my home. What sort of horrible place is this? Who wants to

spend the night here anyway? Damn it!”

“Mr. Lowe, you can’t hide it. Please just stop pretending, okay?” Sage stood up

straight away, gripping Emmanuel’s shoulders emotionally.

“Hey, grumpy girl, I don’t mind that you’re a little stupid and on a lower level,

but why is your captain acting all weird as well? Don’t you have anyone with

common sense here? How am I going to put up with this?” Emmanuel knew

Sage had recognized him, but he insisted on keeping up the act. He even

made it worse by being rude and arrogant on purpose.

Sage was finally pissed as he shook Emmanuel forcefully, “Mr. Lowe, why

won’t you acknowledge me? It’s me, Night Wolf! Don’t you remember me? I’m

Night Wolf!”

Ashton was shocked senseless, and she never once blinked. What is going

onr

The b*stard she looked down on the most turned out to be the superior of

Sage, whom she admired the most!
