"You may begin," Cyrus said gently, gesturing for Nicholas to speak.
Nicholas, handcuffed and weary, leaned back with a desolate expression. "I've disappointed you, haven't I?" "Would you like to hear the truth? Yes," Cyrus replied honestly.
Nicholas closed his eyes, a cold smile twisting his lips in a mix of relief and regret. "I appreciate your honesty. It's refreshing." "Back then, you personally awardedmy First and Second Order of Merit badges. I remember your words clearly. You toldalways to uphold justice and eliminate evil while clinging to my virtues. You also toldto be a good officer and always to serve the people." Cyrus took a deep breath, his emotions churning as he watched Nicholas. "Since joining the force, you've been a role model to us all. Finding out about your actions shattered my faith. The man I looked up to becthe devil's aplice. When I arrested you, did you think I felt satisfaction?" A shiver ran down Nicholas' spine. He slumped forward, burying his face in his hands.

"Actually... you're on the right track," Nicholas finally croaked, wiping his tears. "The one pulling the strings is Jameson Schmidt, the current chairman of Schmidt Group." Cyrus' heart pounded. He held his breath, waiting for Nicholas to continue.

Mosgravia's medical technology is far more advanced. What takes 10 to 20 years here only takes five there!" Cyrus immediately probed, "What's the nof thisanization?" "I think it's called... RC." "And who is Jameson's superior?" Nicholas shook his head weakly. "I don't know. That person is even more secretive than Jameson. But could feel his extrloyalty toward that person. He worships that person like an idol. I wouldn't be surprised if he'd give his life for them. "Now that I think about it... Jameson seems brainwashed. But what right do I have toment on that? I myself have been manipulated." Cyrus' gaze remained steady as he urged Nicholas. "Go on." "Jameson brought the medicine back to Cyrris. To accelerate data collection, he disguised it as soft drugs and distributed them through gray markets.
"I bechis fixer, eliminating any obstacles to the research. I agreed to work for him, hoping to expedite the process and save my wife. But looking back, it was all a terrible mistake." Cyrus exposed Jameson's sinister plan. "Jameson didn't approach you out of mutual aid. He lured you into a trap. It wasn't luck that he chose you. It was because you were a useful tool he happened upon.
"Your desperation for a cure made you easily manipulated. Once he achieves his goals, you'll be discarded. The assassins who attacked you are proof of that."
