Chapter 215: Interrogation

Ryder didn’t open his mouth, and he didn’t reply.

"Answer me," Ray let out again.

"Yes, I know him," Ryder answered as he told the truth.

"How do you know him?" Ray further inquired as he smiled. He believed that he was getting close to the truth since Ryder had already accepted knowing Pasher.

" The building you saw me coming out of is something that I own, as I already told you. It belonged to someone called Stanner Stan before. I did a search on the net and found the son of Stanner Stan," Ryder replied.

Ray looked towards the screen of the machine and nodded his head.

"Alright. Did you meet Pasher Stan today?" Ray asked again.

Ryder was trying to find his way through without lying by trying to tell the vague truth, but there was no way around it anymore. He knew that even if he escaped one question, he wasn’t able to escape by being vague for a long time. He needed to fool the lie detector test to be successful.

He knew that the test used the irregular heartbeat to detect the lies, so first, he needed to keep his heartbeat calm.

"I didn’t meet Pasher today," Ryder replied after a while.

Ray looked at the screen and nodded his head.

"Alright. You didn’t meet him today, so you might not be the one that kidnapped him, but that doesn’t exonerate you," Ray let out as he shook his head.

"Did you see anyone else inside your building?" Ray asked again.

"I didn’t see anyone," Ryder replied as he smiled. He was someone happy to know that it was working.

"Were you the masked man that saved me in Washington?" Ray asked Ryder.

"No, I was not the one you’re talking about," Ryder replied with a confident look on his face.

"Do you know anything about the Bio-terrorists that were involved in the encounter in Washington?" Ray inquired.

"No," Ryder responded again as he tried to keep his heartbeat steady.

"Have you killed the girl that you kidnapped yesterday?" Ray let out as he asked about Riya.

"No, I don’t even know what girl you’re talking about," Ryder replied.

"Do you know about the plan of the BioTerror?" Ray asked.

"No," Ryder answered.

Ray again looked at the screen and nodded his head.

"Do you know where we can find more members of BioTerror?" Ray inquired.

"No," Ryder answered again.

Ray continued asking the questions and Ryder kept replying while keeping his heart steady.

"Alright. I have only two more questions," Ray muttered.

" Will you ever help the enemies of the country and the innocent people?" Rey asked Ryder.

"Never," Ryder replied.

"Last question. Will you help us against Bioterror? We can give you anything you want if you help us. Will you reconsider cooperating with us, or will you do it alone?" Ray asked again.

"I don’t know what you’re talking about," Ryder answered.

Ray looked at the screen of the machine one last time. He closed the briefcase as he sighed.

"I guess we really were wrong. I apologize for bringing you here, and I would like to thank you for your cooperation. You can leave now. Our man is standing outside. He’ll escort you back to your car," Ray said as he looked at Ryder apologetically.

"I told you you were wrong. At Least you know when to accept the wrong," Ryder let out in annoyance as he stood up and left the room.

An agent took Ryder to their black car and escorted him to the building where Ryder’s car was.

Ryder sat in the car and drove it back home.

Ray and Jacob were still sitting in the room when Ryder left the room.

"You were right. It did work," Jacob muttered as he opened the briefcase again.

"Looking at his answers and his lies, he is indeed the person that helped us," he added as he looked at the screen and the paper where he marked the answers.

"Of Course, I was right. I knew it from the beginning. He is definitely the person that helped us, and he wants to keep his identity hidden. I wouldn’t blame him. This is something that anyone would be afraid to take part in when they have the abilities like him. He might be afraid of many things that the government will do to him," Ray muttered as he shook his head.

" His answers about not knowing the plans of Bio-terror were right. His answer about not knowing their location was right, too, also about having no contacts with them or any member related to them. I guess we can’t use him to get to them. We must wait to find a clue about them or for him to find a clue about them," Jacob let out as he looked at the papers in his hand.

"Keep tracking Ryder. I want someone to keep an eye on him whenever he goes out. An agent needs to be on his trail permanently," Ray told Jacob.

"Should we really not tell the chief about Ryder? We shouldn’t keep this thing hidden from him," Jacob asked Ray.

Ray shook his head as he took the papers from Jacob.

"Now is not the time. We can’t take any risk that might burn the bridges between us," Ray replied to Jacob as he looked at the papers.

"Also, Riya is dead. I did expect that, though. I did not expect that he killed Pasher so fast. His answer was a lie about that. I guess we lost a trail there as well," He added as he sighed.

"What should we do next? We don’t have any other trail other than Ryder," Jacob inquired.

"We haven’t been able to catch Pasher either. We can’t stay in this city without an excuse, and if we put an agent on Ryder’s trail, Chief will definitely find out about it and ask us," he added with a concerned look on his face.

"I know about that. That’s why I’m not going to use one of our own. I’ll take outside help. Someone that is the best of the best. A person that can keep an eye on him from the shadows without getting in the path of danger," Ray replied as he looked towards the window.

"Who? You’re not talking about her, are you?" Jacob inquired as he frowned.

"She’s the only one that can do it. I need to call her," Ray muttered as he looked at the screen of his phone.

"Are you really going to put your family in danger? And do you think she will help you after what you did?" Jacob asked Ray.

"Come on; You’re making it sound like I did something bad. I just got a little angry and told her to get out of the house that I own. It wasn’t something that bad. That’s only because she was hacking my official stuff for fun," Ray replied with a wry smile on his face.

" You say that it’s not bad, but have you talked to her after that day?" Jacob asked, frowning.

"I didn’t get the opportunity to talk to her. You know that just the next day we went to Washington and then we came here. She will help me if I convince her. Even though it wasn’t my fault, I’ll apologize to her as well," Ray let out with a wry smile on his face.

" I guess that would be good if she agrees. She is the best in that field. She’s even better than most of our agents. I always wonder why she didn’t join any federal agency. Her talents mostly go to waste. She would be able to put them to good use if she was working with us in the FBI," Jacob muttered as he looked at Ray with a questioning gaze on his face.

"Who knows what goes through the mind of that girl. I asked her multiple times, but she never gave me a reason. I guess she just doesn’t want to work under anyone," Ray let out with a wry smile on his face.

He called the number and placed the phone near his ears.

"You talk in privacy. I’ll be outside, putting this back," Jacob let out as he picked up the briefcases and walked out of the room.

"Hello, Rin?" Ray said as soon as the call was connected.

The black SUV stopped before Ryder’s building. Ryder stepped out of the car and left.

Ryder’s car was just at the entrance of the building.

He stepped in the car and started the engine.

"That was a happening day. I didn’t expect I would be out so soon, though," Ryder muttered as he shook his head.

"Anyway, how was your first day out?" He asked the spirit of Stanner that had stayed near Ryder all this time.

"I’m glad that they didn’t harm you," The Spirit replied to Ryder.

The car raced through the streets of the city as it moved in the direction of Ryder’s home.
