Chapter 407: You Are Under Arrest
Upon hearing that statement, Jaden could not help but be surprised. At the same time, he thought, was it possible that there was a criminal within the hotel?
Just what kind of coincidence was this? That criminal just had to be close to where he was? Of course, Jaden did not think that he was the criminal. After all, in reality, he was not a criminal.
Jaden shook his head as he decided to go back to his room and continue with what he was doing. But he had only taken a few steps when he suddenly realized that the people outside had already begun moving.
At first, he was not really concerned. If they were here to get a certain criminal, then he was not going to be involved in that. It was just that in the next moment, he was completely stunned the moment that he realized that the sound of footsteps had actually stopped outside the door of his suite.
Could this group of people be mistaken about the target that they were looking for? Maybe they had gotten the wrong Intel, which led them coming to his door, instead of another one?
And just as Jaden was wondering about this, the door was suddenly opened with a bang. It seemed that the other party thought that the door had been closed tightly, and so they used full force.
But Jaden had just locked the door with a single lock, the most simple lock. And that was the lock that was easily broken the moment that one of those from the special unit easily went ahead and rammed into the door.
The moment that the guy managed to break into the suite, even he himself had not anticipated it. He had thought that it would require him to do that a few times before he could finally break into the suite.
Nevertheless, he still managed to react, raising the gun that he was having in his hand, while looking around cautiously. As for the others behind him, they also swarmed into the room, all of them vigilantly looking around.
Of course, the first place that they looked at was where Jaden was currently standing. After all, if one entered into a room and there was a person there, they would obviously be attracted by the presence of the person.
All of them immediately aimed their guns at Jaden. Still, there was slight confusion in their eyes, as they looked at Jaden. After all, they had not been given the identity of the person that they were looking for.
They had only been informed about the location of the suspect, and they rushed over to deal with it. No more information was provided, which led to the current situation.
In normal occasions, the moment that they broke into the house of a suspect, the suspect would immediately panic, and try running away. But looking at Jaden who was looking back at them with a calm expression on his face, they were obviously confused.
Was it possible that they had entered into the wrong suite? But that was impossible. In fact, one of them even went out and checked out the suite number, and only then they were sure that it was here.
"Put your hands where we can see them. You are going to be taken back with us for interrogation. You are suspected to have stolen money from people in different parts of the world. Anything that you say may and will be used against you in the court of law." The leader of the operation immediately said after gaining his composure. Discover hidden tales at empire
The moment that those words were said, Jaden finally understood the reason why this group of people had come over. They had actually come over because the AI had stolen money from other people's account?
And from the words that had been said by this guy, it was clear that the government was already aware that the AI had not only stolen money from people within this nation, but instead, it was all over the world.
Jaden was a little confused. How was it that they came to know about the location of the AI in just a matter of a few minutes? With the capability that the AI possessed, it was obviously impossible for them to be able to locate it using any form of technology.
Even if there was a powerful AI that was capable of assisting in tracking down the location of the AI, then, the AI would have definitely been alerted. Jaden did not believe that there was any other form of technology within this world that was capable of evading the capabilities of the AI that he owned.
Well, unless the system was brought into the fray, or there was a possibility that another technology from the same civilization as the system had appeared within this world.
But then again, Jaden thought of another thing. The mutants. That was something that Jaden had completely discounted all this time. He had not anticipated that the government in this country would be involved, leading to the involvement of mutants.
There was a time that the AI had tried to get information about the Smith family and the Raven mercenary group, but it was as if there was something that was blocking it. And according to the AI, it was definitely not technology.
Since that was the case, it seemed that someone with a certain ability was capable of tracking the location of the AI. Jaden was quite curious about that kind of ability, and having already met with nameless and the other mutant that had died a little while ago, Jaden was obviously not that much surprised.
In response to what he had been told, Jaden simply continued looking at this group of people. He did not react at all. At the same time, he had no intention of collaborating with them.
If they wanted to arrest him, then they were dreaming. First of all, even if he was the one who had instructed the AI to make a move, it was not as if he was the one who had made a move directly. That implied that unless they could find the link between him and the AI, it was impossible for them to be able to associate him with the robbery.
Additionally, it was not as if they were going to find the location of the AI. Who would ever anticipate that the AI would be installed in something very small like a mobile phone? Well, it was previously a laptop before it underwent an upgrade, which allowed it to become small in size, just like an ordinary smartphone.
When this group of special unit members in charge of dealing with emergency situations like this saw that Jaden was not reacting, they could not help but frown.
The leader of the group immediately repeated what he had said before, but even after a few seconds had elapsed, it was clear that Jaden was not going to react at all.
This was something that obviously angered many of them. And one of them immediately took a step forward and approached Jaden. As for the others, they continued aiming their guns at Jaden.
At this point, they realized something. Even if Jaden was not involved in the robbery of the money as it was said, he was obviously not normal. After all, in the face of the guns that were being pointed at him, he was simply ignoring them.
The moment that the one who had stepped forward arrived in front of Jaden, he looked at him with a cold expression on his face as he said, "Turn around now. Don't make us use force."
But it seemed that the cold expression on his face could not work against Jaden. After all, Jaden just continued standing there, looking at him.
The guy was Immediately incensed. He could not handle the arrogance that was being displayed by the young man in front of him. He immediately raised his hand, planning to force Jaden into submission.
As for the gun, it was already hanging on his shoulder by its strap. He was not planning on using the gun, considering that the person in front of him had not shown any form of physical resistance, or trying to kill someone by taking out a lethal weapon.
But just as the hand was about to come into contact with Jaden, it suddenly felt like there was an invisible wall that was separating him and Jaden.
No matter how much the guy tried, he could not get his hand to reach Jaden. And the others that were currently watching could not help but feel a little confused. Why was this guy playing around?
This was not the only person that they had to deal with. Other suspects for different crimes were in different areas, and they were required to go and capture them as well.
"Can you stop messing around and apprehend the suspect? We don't have time to waste." The leader stated with a frown on his face.
The guy's face turned purple upon hearing the words said by the leader of the operation. He exerted more strength, but he only realized that it was impossible for him to be able to break through the invisible wall in front of him.
He had already tried changing positions that he was extending his hand through, only to realize that it was impossible for him to be able to get his hand to touch Jaden.
"I think that there is a glass that is separating me and the suspect." Finally, understanding that it was an impossible venture, the guy said those words, surprising the others around.
