There was a moment of silence in the booth.
Both John Dawn and the people from the film production side were almost dumbfounded.
After all, they were planning to make a film on this subject, so naturally, they had some understanding of the Mystical Sect.
The Security Bureau, isn’t that the division of the state specialized in dealing with supernatural events of mysticism?
What did they just say?
Lucienne Xander and the Evil Technique organization colluding? Even stealing other people’s appearances?
Oh my God...
Everyone knew there was a curse on the sixth guest of the "Inspiration" program crew, but who could have thought that the first to fall from grace this season would be a representative of mysticism!!
The people from the production side were either incredulous or grateful they hadn’t officially signed yet, while John Dawn instinctively wanted to speak up to stop them.
His agent immediately held him down, the warning and pleading in their eyes almost palpable.
For heaven’s sake, didn’t you hear what they just said?!
John Dawn indeed hadn’t heard, or rather, he had heard, but because it was too absurd, he chose not to believe it.
Compared to everyone else present, Lucienne Xander was obviously much calmer,
"You don’t have evidence to arrest me, can the Security Bureau just arbitrarily arrest people?"
Victor Quintero curled his lip at her words.
"Sorry, the Security Bureau does indeed have that authority."
According to the normal process, Scarlett Jennings should first take Layla Xalvadora to Sea City to do a soul and body match with Lucienne’s face to confirm that Lucienne’s face was indeed taken from her.
But because Layla’s body still needed nutritional supplements for maintenance, plus the conspiracy involving the Black Mist Organization, the Central Office specially allowed an immediate arrest.
Hence, this spectacle today.
Lucienne Xander frowned at the Security Bureau officer in front of her, and after a long pause, stood up without resistance.
"I’ll go with you."
She said this, yet there was not the slightest panic or fear on her face from her conspiracy being exposed; instead, she straightened her spine, as if she were the one being persecuted.
This demeanor, too, made John Dawn unable to hold back any longer, and he stood up swiftly,
"You can’t take her away! There must be some misunderstanding here!"
How could she possibly collude with the Evil Master organization and use some Evil Technique?
She...
John Dawn wanted to argue, but Victor Quintero just turned to look at him, a hint of sympathy in his gaze,
"Are you John Dawn?"
"That’s me."
"Then do you know that the face she took originally belonged to someone named Layla Xalvadora?"
Victor Quintero had come to arrest her on behalf of the Sea City Security Bureau after contact from Scarlett Jennings, and naturally, he had heard the full story from her.
For the person speaking, it was hard not to feel some sympathy.
John Dawn, however, upon hearing the name "Layla," froze completely in disbelief.
He looked at Lucienne Xander in disbelief.
More accurately, at Elysia Xander.
His face went pale, and he glared at her, unable to suppress the trembling in his voice, asking her,
"Is what he says true?"
Elysia Xander just looked at him for a long while without answering.
Upon seeing this, Victor Quintero decisively ordered her to be locked up and taken away.
John Dawn, still unwilling to accept it, was about to step forward and question further, but such entanglements were not allowed by the Security Bureau.
It’s well known that changes often happen during such entanglements.
The higher-ups’ orders for Elysia Xander were to handle it quickly and not let things escalate.
Victor Quintero simply raised his hand to block John Dawn, allowing the officer to take Elysia Xander away first.
Seeing this, John Dawn’s eyes turned red as he looked at Victor Quintero, but he asked,
"You won’t let me ask her, then tell me, is it true she took Layla’s face? If her face was taken from Layla, then... where is the real Layla? Where is she?"
