Chapter 227 Chapter 227 – The Captain
The door of the Containment Unit suddenly opened, and Nick's entire body twitched as he was startled.
Nick looked over at the person who had entered and saw a middle-aged man with black hair.
He was wearing the uniform of a member of the city, and, according to his emblem, he was an Expert.
The man calmly walked over to the table and sat down in one of the chairs.
"Nick Nick, Chief Zephyx Extractor of Dark Dream," the man said calmly. "Is that correct?"
"Yes," Nick said nervously.
"Marder Sansen, Captain of the city guards," the man said.
Nick nodded. "H-hello," he said absentmindedly.
"From where did you obtain the signal?" the man asked immediately.
"Wyntor gave it to me after getting it from his father," Nick said.
"With Wyntor, you mean Wyntor Melfion?" the man asked.
"C-correct," Nick said.
"Why would he hand you the signal?" n()O-/V/-e.(L)/b)/I..n
"Because his father told him to," Nick answered.
"Why would Vernon Melfion tell his son to hand you the signal?" the man asked.
"He didn't tell Wyntor a lot," Nick said. "He was very vague. He said that the misuse of the signal is punishable by death."
"He also said that if I am unsure whether to use it or not, I should not use it. He said I will be certain that I have to use it if I need to use it."
The man furrowed his brows.
"Why were there two Specters with you?" the man asked.
"That's a long story," Nick said.
"I have the entire day," the man said, leaning back on his chair.
"Okay, well, a bit over two years ago, I hired a new employee. Her name is Jenny, and..."
Nick started at the very beginning and told the captain about the Riker Strikers.
The captain didn't even ask why Nick hadn't told the guards about the Specter.
It was normal for a Manufacturer to keep the identities of Specters hidden.
After all, they didn't want anyone else to benefit from their work.
"The record says that the two Specters stood behind you and that there was no sign of aggression," the captain interrupted Nick. "That doesn't conform with what you were telling me."
"I'm getting to that," Nick said, his voice still shaky and nervous.
