The moment Edward awoke, he felt an unbearable pain in his neck.
As his consciousness gradually cleared, Edward began to recall everything that had just happened.
"The imperial envoy" had arrived at the police station.
Then, under the pretense of assisting with the investigation, he had been taken to the military barracks.
Edward was not surprised.
There had been rumors before that "the imperial envoy" was dissatisfied with how Edward had handled things.
So, the so-called assistance in the investigation was naturally a sham.
The real intention was to make him take the blame!
Edward was well aware of this.
And he had prepared for it.
In the worst-case scenario, he would simply take off his uniform and go home to take over his father's factory.
However, contrary to Edward's expectations, as soon as he got into "the imperial envoy's" car, he was tasered into unconsciousness.
