Bruno was dissatisfied and said. "I'm not the only one who visited the lab. Why do you suspect I took it?"
'Because the day you asked Bertha to go to Color Bar, at the same time someone took that bottle of medicine, can you dare to say that this matter has nothing to do with you?"
Bruno frowned slightly. "How do you know?"
The man with the devil mask descended in front of him.
Revealing Derek's cold, handsome face.
Bruno stared at his face, his eyes filled with wonder. "It's you again. Why do you have this mask? I don't believe the head of the National Investigation Bureau could be you."
Before, he only felt that Derek was not normal. He even sent someone to investigate. Derek's file was too clean. At that time, Bruno suspected that Derek's identity was not that simple.
But...
No matter how simple this man is, he cannot be related to the National Investigation Bureau.
Derek narrowed his eyes, he studied Bruno's expression.
Seeing that Bruno was really surprised, he spoke. "It seems that you stole this potion not to investigate my identity, but because you wanted to harm Bertha. You pretended to love her like that, but you were so cruel that you wanted to use S404 to destroy her."
"I don't. I truly love her."
Bruno resolutely refused to admit it.
He chose to ignore the matter, he smiled coldly and glared at Derek. "You used the name of the National Investigation Bureau to torture me, right? Do you think I will believe you? Your identity is just that of a young master of Tibble's family in City X, how is that possible?"
Derek looked coldly at Bruno but he said nothing.
Bruno continued. "Today I was not careful enough to fall into your and Bertha's trap, how long do you think you can keep me locked up? Tomorrow my subordinates will discover I'm missing, you kidnapped and attacked the director of the secret investigation department, this crime is not small, you should think carefully."
"Oh?"
Derek said indifferently, curling the corners of his lips. "So you wait and see if a subordinate will come looking for you tomorrow."
Bruno saw that Derek's cold, leisurely expression was not like pretending, and then he looked again at the devil mask in his hand.
The mask symbolizing the head of the national investigation department was expertly crafted from pure silver, with a complex process and special patterns, only one in the world.
He began to feel confused inside.
Outside the door, Liam knocked softly and spoke. "Boss, Miss. Bertha will be here in five minutes."
"Okay."
Derek looked at Bruno again, he got straight to the point. "Half a month ago, you took that bottle of medicine, but a week ago, you just arrived in the city who is that?"
Bruno lowered his head and looked at the ground. He just smiled but said nothing.
Derek grabbed his hair, forcing Bruno to look him straight in the eyes.
"The National Investigation Bureau also has a few tricks to deal with stubborn criminals. You know it very well. Are you sure you didn't say it?"
Bruno was immediately angered by his words, blue veins began to appear on his forehead, and he gritted his teeth.
"You dare?"
"Why don't I dare? You already know my identity, just based on your mistake this time, do you think you can leave alive?"
The more he spoke, the more fierce and angry Derek's eyes became.
Bruno looked straight into his eyes, and after being taken aback for a moment, he laughed loudly. "You're not the young master of Tibble's family, right? Who are you?"
The head of the National Investigation Bureau certainly cannot be just a small president in City X.
Derek said nothing.
"You said I approached Bertha for another purpose. I think she also doesn't know your identity, don't you have a purpose? Pretending to be weak and pitiful in front of her, why did you do that?"
Derek grabbed his hair even harder.
Bruno felt as if his scalp was about to be torn apart, his expression was slightly pained, but he still laughed loudly.
"If you knew it wasn't sulfuric acid that day, then you probably know well, that you don't have much longer to live. I can't have her, neither can you."
Derek was angry, loosened his grip on his hair, and aggressively punched Bruno.
Bruno's cheek quickly swelled with a bruise.
He spat a mouthful of blood onto the ground, those deep blue eyes looking at Derek provocatively.
"Even if the doctor can neutralize the S404 poison in your body, you cannot die, but over time it will leave sequelae, and by then you will be a disabled person, if she knows, maybe at first she will have mercy on you, but what about later?"
"Derek, ever since you were poisoned, this disabled body of yours has not been worthy of her."
Derek trembled slightly.
He was stunned for a moment, he was silent and said nothing, until Liam's voice was heard again outside the door.
"Boss, Miss. Bertha's car has reached the main road, she will be here in two minutes."
"Okay."
He looked towards Bruno again and said. "If you have fallen into my hands, then you should know, there is no person in this world that I cannot open my mouth to. I will find out all your secrets in the past days."
Bruno glanced at Derek, and he coldly snorted.
Derek grabbed his hair again, he warned Bruno. "Wait Bertha in here, maybe you know what you should say, if you dare to reveal even a word, I will cause you extreme pain."
"Miss. Bertha. You're here."
Outside the door, Liam's voice was heard.
Derek hid his mask, turned around, and went out to greet Bertha.
The door opened, just as he and Bertha both looked at each other.
Remembering Bruno's words just now, he retracted his gaze, he rarely didn't take the initiative to talk.
