Chapter 668: Since light cannot save us, let us throw ourselves into darkness

Wearing electronic handcuffs, Edwin was escorted by two prison guards to the visiting room, where he could meet visitors. Of course, all of this was done under the supervision of the prison guards.

While Edwin was waiting, a lawyer walked in. Seeing that it was not his friend, Edwin suddenly felt an ominous feeling in his heart.

“Hello, Mr. Edwin. I’m Wade, the lawyer of your friend John Smith. I’m sorry to tell you that Mr. Smith was in a car accident not long ago and has passed away. Before he died, he entrusted me to come and tell you something.”

Sure enough, the lawyer’s words made his heart even heavier.

“Your child, who was originally placed in the care of Mr. John Smith, has been sent to an orphanage in accordance with the laws of the United States.”

“If there is anything else you need my help with, please tell me and I will do my best to help you.”

Edwin was struck by lightning, for the only thing he was still thinking about was his little son, but now the lawyer told him that his friend was dead and his son was sent to an orphanage.

As the head of the FBI field team, he knew very well what the orphanage was. It was not a paradise for children, but a devil’s den, and his son was in this devil’s den.

“Mr. Wade, can you help me get my son out of the orphanage? He can’t stay there!” Edwin said excitedly.

“Mr. Edwin, you should know that according to federal law, children without guardians can choose to be fostered in the homes of relatives. If there are no relatives, they can only be sent to child welfare institutions. While in child welfare institutions, they can be adopted by others.”

“And you are now in prison, which does not meet this standard,” said attorney Wade.

“Lawyer Wade, could you please help find a family to adopt him? He can’t stay in the welfare home.” Edwin said.

“Mr. Edwin, I can help you with this, but you should know that it is not easy. I can only try my best to help you.” Lawyer Wade said.

“Thank you, Lawyer Wade!” said Edwin.

After the lawyer left, Edwin also stood up in despair and prepared to return to the cell. At this time, the prison guard next to him sneered: “I’m afraid that your son will be missing before the lawyer can help you find a family to adopt him.”

Edwin, who was walking back in despair, suddenly realized something when he heard this. He raised his head abruptly, his eyes became fierce and icy, like a lone wolf forced into a dead end. He asked in a cold tone: “You are the ones who did this!”

“How much did that damn Wells Clinton pay you to treat me like this!”

“No, that car accident was caused by you guys!”

Seeing Edwin’s fierce and cold eyes, the prison guard felt fear in his heart and his body paused subconsciously, but he reacted the next second. He was shocked that as a prison guard, he was actually scared by a prisoner.

This made the prison guard very angry, and he punched him hard on the lower back.

The heavy blow to his lower back twisted Edwin’s facial features, but his eyes were still fixed on the prison guard.

“Very good, I like people like you who are tough as nails!” Looking at Edwin’s expression, the prison guard said with a wry smile. He had already made up his mind to teach him a lesson.

“Paul, the warden wants to see him, take him to the warden’s office.” At this moment, another prison guard came.

“Okay, I’ll take him there right away!” Paul grinned, revealing two rows of white teeth, and said to Edwin with a smile: “Let’s go, Hard Bones, the warden wants to see you!”

Soon the two men took Edwin to the warden’s office and locked him to a stool in the middle.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Edwin,” said the prison warden David Thompson with a smile.

“I believe you already know that your son is now living in an orphanage. I am deeply sorry about this.” The warden was wearing a well-fitting suit and tie, with his hair combed meticulously. He did not look like a prison warden at all, but more like a gentleman.

After realizing that the whole thing was caused by Wells Clinton, Edwin’s eyes became even colder, and his voice was like a cold wind blowing from the depths of Siberia: “What do you want to do?”

David Thompson kept smiling and said calmly, “It’s not about what we want to do, but what do you, Mr. Edwin, want to do?”

“Although I sympathize with your situation, I am happy to help you if you are willing. As long as you hand over those things that do not belong to you!”

“I see! It seems that you are all in cahoots with that bastard Wells Clinton!”

By now, Edwin had completely understood that everything he was going through was caused by Wells Clinton, who was after the evidence in his hands.

But now he didn’t dare to hand over the evidence. The cruelty of these people had constantly refreshed his cognition over this period of time. If he handed over the evidence, what awaited him was not release, nor his son growing up like a normal child, but destruction.

Those high-ranking figures would not hesitate to crush him and his son to death like crushing an ant!
In order to force him, these people would do anything. It was obvious that his friend was most likely implicated by him.

After learning the truth, Edwin was in great pain. He had never thought that those people would not even let his friends go. At this moment, he hated himself for not revealing the information completely, hated his naivety, and also hated those people immensely.

“Edwin, I know you are an excellent field agent and have made countless contributions to this country. I admire you for this!”

“But you have already lost. You cannot threaten those big shots. Think about your child. He is only six years old this year. He was sent to an orphanage at such a young age. And I heard that this orphanage was built with donations from the church.”

“bump!”

This sentence was like a bomb, completely blowing Edwin’s mind to pieces. As an old United States flag bearer, he knew exactly what the church’s welfare house was.

Just like the high-ranking politicians in America like to go to Lolita Island, the priests in America have a special liking for little boys. It can be said that such things are exposed almost every year, but almost all the news will be suppressed.

Now you tell him that his son is in a children’s welfare home funded by the church, how can Edwin not be furious.

The angry Edwin was like an enraged lion. He jumped up in an instant and was about to attack David Thompson. But unfortunately, as the warden of the most dangerous prison in the United States, he had to deal with countless vicious prisoners every day, and all kinds of protection were foolproof.

Edwin, who was tied to the chair, had not jumped halfway when the iron chain on the chair locked him tightly. The chain was made of fine steel and even an elephant could not break free, let alone an ordinary human.

“It seems you refuse!” David Thompson frowned, then reached out and took out a Cuban cigar from the drawer, first roasted it on the alcohol lamp next to it, then picked up a pair of delicate scissors, cut off one end of the cigar, and then lit the cigar with a match. After taking a deep puff of the cigar, David Thompson blew a puff of smoke at Edwin who was still struggling, and then said, “It’s obviously a simple thing, why can’t you understand it?”

“Looks like I need to wake you up!” David Thompson said as he pressed a button on the table.

Zizi!

In an instant, a strong sound of electric current was heard, and Edwin, who was struggling, instantly became stiff. A strong electric current passed through his body. The current was so strong that the strong man lost the ability to resist, and even drooled uncontrollably from the corners of his mouth.

“Are you more sober now, Mr. Edwin?” The warden straightened his collar and took another leisurely puff of his cigar.

“Uh huh huh”

After being shocked by the strong electric current, Edwin lost control of his body. Saliva kept flowing from the corners of his lips. He wanted to say something, but he couldn’t utter a word.

Even at this moment, his eyes were blurred and he looked as miserable as a dog. No, he looked even more miserable than a dog. At least a dog’s life was much more comfortable than his.

At this moment, he suddenly remembered the scene from last night, the sudden appearance of the Lord of Hell, Mephisto.

The devil’s laughter seemed to ring in his ears again.

“Mr. Edwin, who is upright, brave, fair, and kind, do you still hope that the God you believe in will appear and save you?”

“Or, if God really cares about you and protects you, then why did your wife die in a car accident? Why was your daughter sold to Europe? Why did your son become a toy for those priests?”

“Haha, this is probably the funniest joke I have heard in the past few decades. The son of the Lord’s most devout believer was sexually assaulted and played with by the Lord’s servants. This is really a great irony!”

“Mr. Edwin, do you have anything you want to talk to me about?”

“I agreed!”

Edwin used up all his strength and roared. At this moment, in his heart, the God he believed in was completely abandoned by him. When he was treated unfairly and framed, the God he believed in did not appear. When his wife was in a car accident, God still did not protect him.

When his daughter was abducted and disappeared, God still did not appear. Now, his young son has become a plaything of God’s servants. Is this how the God he has believed in for decades treats his believers?

Since God is unwilling to help me, I will throw myself into darkness!

“Mephitus, I agree to the kinship contract with you, but you must give me the power of revenge!”

At this moment, if someone could see the soul, they would find that Edwin’s originally light golden soul had changed, and the golden light had turned black.

The originally hazy soul core also became solid at this moment, blooming with brilliant light.

This kind of soul is also the high-level soul that the demons in hell want most. It can be said that even one soul may not appear among a hundred thousand souls.

Souls like this with devout faith and noble morals are already very rare. In the world of Motera, this is the soul of a fanatic, which is highly valued by the gods.

But now the soul of this fanatic has fallen, no longer believing in light, and embracing darkness. If this happened in the world of Motera, the bishops and temple knights of the church would probably go crazy.

Looking at the soul in front of him that seemed to have been freed of dust and revealed a dazzling brilliance, Richard smiled slightly, then snapped his fingers lightly, and a parchment scroll suddenly appeared in front of Edwin, and his name began to appear quickly at the bottom of the parchment contract.

The next second, the signature was completed, and the parchment scroll began to burn. In just a moment, the parchment scroll was burned to ashes, and the next second, a ray of light instantly penetrated Edwin’s body.

On his chest, a badge with flames appeared. The next second, a powerful burning force surged into his body from the badge and spread throughout his limbs in an instant.

Edwin, who had just been weakened by the electric shock, only remembered the endless power surging in his body.

The chain that had originally locked it firmly on the seat softened instantly like a ball of plasticine. The stainless steel seat was like paper at this moment and was easily torn apart.

The warden, who had been leisurely and smoking a cigar just now, suddenly became dazed. The next second he reacted and wanted to escape, but Edwin did not give him any chance.

Edwin grabbed David Thompson by the collar and lifted him up. His cold and cruel eyes made him feel like he was falling into an icy cave.

“Mr. Warden, let’s play a game now!”

“I ask questions and you answer them. If you answer incorrectly or the answers do not satisfy me, then these are the consequences!” Edwin grabbed the warden’s hand and crushed one of his fingers bit by bit with his palm.

His fingers were connected to his heart, and the tremendous pain almost made him faint, but he woke up in an instant.

“You haven’t asked me yet.” The warden cried out in pain.

“Sorry, that was just an experiment. Now the game officially begins!”

“Who asked you to do this series of things against me?”

“It was Wells Clinton, he made me do it!”

“Then was he also responsible for my wife’s car accident and my best friend’s car accident?”

“I don’t know about that. I’m only in charge of the prison. Ah.”

“Wrong answer. Now you have eight chances!” Edwin said in a cold tone.

“He did it. The New York gangs are his dogs. He ordered them to do it.”
