Chapter 496 496: Authority's Decision
Johnson, after regaining consciousness, had a grim expression on his face. With a stern voice, he commanded his subordinates, "Shut up, I need to think and act fast." He knew the gravity of the situation and decided to handle it personally. Leaving his team behind, he made his way to the government headquarters of the planet to report his findings.
Upon arriving, he carefully constructed his report, omitting any mention of his secret time-reversal ability. Instead, he crafted a logical and convincing narrative based on the video provided by the intelligence department, tying together loose ends and making educated guesses to fill in the gaps.@@@@
Johnson presented his case: "Based on the surveillance footage, which captured an intense flash of light at the time of the incident, and considering the magnitude of the destruction, the perpetrator had to possess immense power. Given the timing and the location, I cross-referenced the participants of the recent Cosmic Siege event, where such power levels were demonstrated."
He continued, meticulously constructing a profile of Adam. "One individual, an Earthling named Adam, stood out. He's a rising star in a newbie team that has recently gained significant attention for their rapid ascent in the Cosmic Siege rankings. His capabilities and the power demonstrated in the event align with the scale of destruction we've seen."
The intelligence officers listening to Johnson were astounded by his rapid deduction and the coherent storyline he constructed from the scant evidence available. "Johnson, how did you manage to pinpoint the culprit so quickly with hardly any clues?" one officer asked, a mix of admiration and skepticism in his voice.
Another added, "It's almost like you were there when it happened. Your ability to weave together a narrative from such limited information is nothing short of remarkable."
Johnson merely nodded, his face betraying none of the effort it took to use his time-reversal ability or the toll it had extracted from him. He maintained his professional demeanor, keeping his most guarded secret safe while providing the authorities with a solid lead on the tragic incident.
The officers, while impressed by Johnson's swift and detailed analysis, couldn't help but feel a sense of unease, wondering about the true extent of the detective's capabilities and the methods he used to achieve his flawless success rate in solving cases.
Just like that, The officers, after their hushed discussions and speculations about Johnson's findings, knew they had to escalate the information to their superiors. They prepared a detailed report on Johnson's conclusions and presented it to the top management of the planet, including the highest authority, Milkua.
Upon receiving the report, Milkua's reaction was one of immediate concern and outrage. "Adam has made a mockery of our security, of our entire planet!" he exclaimed, slamming his fist on the table. "Such an act of destruction cannot go unpunished. He's slapped us in the face, in front of the entire galaxy!"
The public opinion had turned sour, with citizens openly criticizing the top management for their inability to prevent the catastrophe or quickly apprehend the culprit. News outlets and social media platforms were rife with comments like "How could our leaders let this happen?" and "They're supposed to protect us, not leave us vulnerable to such attacks!"
Milkua felt the weight of these accusations keenly, perceiving Adam's unchecked power as a direct threat to his rule and the planet's stability. "The power he wielded, to obliterate a whole city... It's unprecedented. If we don't control or eliminate him, who's to say he won't do it again?" Milkua stated, his voice cold and determined.
The other high-ranking officials nodded in agreement, their expressions fraught with anxiety. The fear was palpable; if Adam could cause such devastation inadvertently, what havoc could he wreak if he bore malice or was provoked?
"We are in agreement, then," Milkua continued, his tone resolute. "Adam represents a threat not just to our planet, but to the established order. We cannot allow him to roam free. He must be arrested or, if necessary, eliminated."
high-ranking official named Goran began to outline the potential threats posed by Adam's power. "Imagine if he decided to target our energy plants, or worse, our central government buildings," Goran said, painting a picture of chaos and destruction. "A single burst of his power could take down our shields, leaving us defenseless."
He continued, detailing more scenarios: "What if, by accident or design, he disrupts our space traffic control systems? The resulting collisions could cripple our transport networks. And remember, he doesn't even need to aim at us directly. If he just loses control or gets angry, we could be facing a disaster we can't contain."
