The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family
Chapter 4372

The confirmation of Janus's identity disappointed Merlin somewhat.

He looked forward to hearing some unusual information, the kind that made people feel that something must be going on.

However, he dispelled his doubt about Janus after receiving the news from his informant. As an old detective, he knew that a person could disguise the present well, but not their past.

Many criminals might be successful at clearing their names and becoming successful figures. However, most of the time, many were eventually apprehended for their past crimes.

With the revelation of Janus's long history from about three decades ago, it was enough to explain his relationship with Quinn Golding. There was nothing wrong with Quinn having a meal at his restaurant. It was perfectly normal.

When Quinn was having a meal there, she happened to overhear Christian talking about Keith's illness. It made sense that she traveled far just to deliver medicine.

Merlin also found a reason as to why Janus deliberately destroyed the surveillance evidence. Firstly, Quinn was a major star. Secondly, Janus's past proved that he was not an ordinary person. When he sensed that something was wrong, he destroyed the surveillance to protect Quinn's privacy. This was also reasonable of him.

Everything seemed logical and reasonable. There was no reason to investigate any further.

Merlin could only hope that the police could continue to dig deeper into the Ten Thousand Armies' connection to the case. This was the only direction the investigation could go.

Walker continued, but now, he sounded a tad bit helpless. "Sir, your successor, Mr. Bull, held a meeting with us today. We're changing our focus to confirming the victim's identity and the details of their kidnapping instead. Our superiors also told us not to bother Fox Group anymore. We can't investigate from the clue of the Ten Thousand Armies anymore..."

Merlin had to ask, "Ten Thousand Armies killed so many people in New York. Are they going to stop the investigation and leave it be?" "Yes." Walker explained, "If we continue, the case will become more difficult and complicated. The mayor and chief advised us to stop the investigation."

Merlin asked, "How about the wealthy and influential men who were killed? Can their family accept it?"

Walker said, "Do you know that the families of the deceased have approached us and made it clear they don't want the investigation to continue anymore? If the investigation continues, it'll greatly affect their reputation. Their response is the same as the Fox family. They rather come up with a sum of money to compensate the victims' families and let this matter be over with as soon as possible."

Merlin was stunned for a moment. He blurted out, "That means the murder cases of Homer and the others will be closed!"

"Yeah, that's right. However, we won't announce it to the public."

Merlin felt disappointed. "Rosalie has escaped. We can't investigate the Ten Thousand Armies anymore. Plus, there are no problems with Janus's identity. It's basically impossible to solve the case now!" Walker washelpless. "That's the situation now, sir..."

Merlin let out a heavy sigh, disappointed.

What Merlin didn't know at this time was the consequences of his action. Since he had ordered someone to investigate Janus, Janus's information instantaneously appeared on the other side of the world. Janus's profile was presented
