The Understated Dragon Lord
Chapter 881 Jax's Trap

After all, directly saying "killed" was too blunt. Any sensible person, not just a fool, would never admit to murder in front of the police. "You mean Dog?"

Daniel grinned broadly, a mischievous glint in his eye, and replied, "I didn't do anything to him! I didn't do anything!"

"Didn't do anything? Then what about Dog? Where is he? How come you're the only one who came out? Where's Dog?" Jax pressed, narrowing his eyes.

"You shouldn't be asking me where Dog is! When I came out, Dog was still inside. If you don't believe me, you could always go back in and check! You could greet him or even have a chat!"

"Dummy, you're not telling the truth! Don't think that just because you're lying I can't see through it! I can say with 100% certainty that you killed Dog! If you came out alone, why didn't Dog follow?"

Since Daniel was unwilling to admit it outright, Jax decided to pin the charge squarely on him.

Daniel knew all too well that Jax had set a trap to entangle him, but as a quick-witted individual, he wasn't about to just walk into such an obvious snare.

"Jax, you can't just throw around accusations like that! You're a police officer, and when you speak, you need to back it up with evidence. If you claim I killed Dog, you better have proof! Otherwise, calling me a killer is defamation-slander and false accusations!"

"Dummy, stop wasting time! In that cave, we all left, but you and Dog were the only ones remaining. Now, you're the only one who comes out If you can't tell me where Dog is, it can only mean one thing: you killed him No matter how heinous Dog was, his fate should be determined by the law! You have no right to take his life!"

kill him!"

Daniel was indeed telling the truth. While he may have left the cave first, he wasn't responsible for Dog's fate. After all, if Dog had really died, it wasn't at Daniel's hands; it was those spirits that had taken him down.

Therefore, Dog's death could only be seen as divine retribution!

"Enough of this, Jax! It's not your place to worry about where Dog is or if he's alive or dead," Chloe interjected. She knew perfectly well that with Daniel safely out of the cave, Dog had no chance of making it out alive.

As an astute woman, she understood Daniel's intent to have everyone leave the scene.

As long as there were no third

parties present, whatever transpired

between Daniel and Dog would know. Content belongo else would

remain a secret; no one else

If Dog were really dead, as long as Daniel kept quiet, the incident would be buried forever, as if it had never happened at all.
