Divinity: Against the Godly System Chapter 194 – 190: Surrounded?

"You can either call him down, or we can seal this whole mansion and arrest your master. Don't think we don't have the authority to do it. We are in full authority here," Jacob declared as he pointed his finger at Daga.

"Are you trying to threaten me? I have worked in law enforcement for 21 years, and I know some things. You can't force your way in. You have an interrogation warrant, but you don't have the search warrant to search the house. If you try to do anything inside this mansion, that would be illegal, and we will be well within our rights as the security of this mansion to gun you down," Daga responded without backing off. He was loyal to Jameson, and he was willing to do anything to make sure that his command was followed.

Daga was already in a bulletproof vest, and he was carrying a heavy gun, which already made him look intimidating to the agents.

"As for the Interrogation Warrant, you can give that to me, and it's for our boss to decide if he is available or not. If for certain health-related reasons, he's not available, then you can't force him as well. You can place non-compliance on him, but that will be handled in the court of law. That's all I'll say for now. I'm not going to wake my feverish master for you. I must ask you to leave our place," Daga said as he gestured for them to leave.

"You a...." 

Jacob was instantly angry as he pulled out his gun and pointed his gun towards Daga, but as soon as his gun was pulled out, all the security guards of the mansion also pulled out their guns and aimed that at Ray and others.

"Little guy, don't give us any reason to shoot. You know as well as I that it would be legal and self-defense. We have cameras right above us. It's clear that you pulled out the gun first. Silently leave, or you won't be capable of leaving!" Daga let out. There was a frown on his face as he glared at Jacob.

"Jacob, let's go," Ray told Jacob as he started walking towards the exit without creating any commotion.

"But..."

Jacob wanted to say something, but Riya placed a hand on his shoulder.

"Listen to him. Let's leave," She said as she started walking towards the exit as well. 

"Hmph," Jacob snorted as he glared at Daga before he lowered his gun and left the mansion with Milana.

Jacob got into the car after Riya and Ray.

"We had all the authority there. They can't stop us! We didn't have to leave!" Jacob said to Ray. "Now, it looks like we were scared!"

"It was a tactical retreat. They wouldn't allow us to meet Jameson, and the four of us couldn't do anything. We need the Chief's permission to do anything. Let me consult him first," Ray said to Jacob as he sighed.

"Riya, you opened the server to see if Jameson had called anyone in the last half an hour or not. I want to hear the recording if he called anyone," Ray told Riya.

Riya nodded her head and opened the laptop.

Ray dialed the number of their head and started telling him what had happened.

"Is that so, Alright. Check if he had called anyone or not. If he hadn't, then he's not worried about it yet. In that case, you have full authority to surround their place. I'm sending backup. I'll also get you a search warrant. It would be even better if we could arrest him for non-compliance. It doesn't matter much if we ask him questions in his home or in a cell since both would work the same to agitate him," the Chief told Ray.

"I understand. We're checking the recordings now. I'll keep you updated," Ray said before he disconnected the call.

Ray looked back at Riya, who was wearing a headphone and listening to something.

"Anything?" Ray asked her as he tapped her shoulder.

Riya took off her headphones.

"Yeah, Jameson talked to two people in the last half an hour. One of them was his Head of Security, who told him of our arrival," Riya replied.

She disconnected the headphones and played the recording for everyone to hear.

Ray couldn't help but place his hands on his chin as he heard the first recording. It was nothing serious and just a message being conveyed about their arrival.

"He doesn't sound worried after hearing about our arrival. He also talked about coming down, and I didn't feel like he was lying. What happened after that call, which made him not come down?" Ray muttered with a frown on his face.

"Alright. Who was the second person he talked to?" Ray asked Riya.

"He called a person called Pasha Stan after a few minutes from the first call. I searched about him, and he is the owner of a construction company. Pasher is also a shareholder in Jameson's business." Riya answered to Ray.

"Alright. Play that recording," Ray told her.

Riya tapped a few keys on the keyboard and started playing the second call.

All of them heard the recordings, and they were all left confused after the recording was finished.

"What is this all about? It sounds like something did happen. What was this talk about going bankrupt," Milana inquired in confusion.

"We got it, but it wasn't clear. You guys heard it, right? Pasher was talking about something about news before he was cut off. He had said bla; I think he was trying to say blast. It might be something related to uprising. We need to get him in. We are going with plan b. We are arresting him and taking him to a cell. Let me inform the chief and have the backup fast," He said as he picked up his phone and called the chief again.

He conveyed everything they found out and suggested some things. He disconnected the call after he got all the permissions.

"Are we getting the backup?" Riya asked Ray as she saw him disconnect the call.

"Yeah, they'll be here in twenty minutes. Milana, keep an eye on the place to make sure that no one leaves. Riya, Jacob, wear the safety measures. It might be a big day," Ray let out as he stood up and started wearing the bulletproof vest.

The others also started getting ready for a confrontation.

"We'll get that bastard and that security head," Jacob muttered as he checked his guns to make sure that they were ready for what might be ahead.
