My Werewolf System

Chapter 687 White Rose A Mess

?

Sadie and Frank were back in the office, along with the others in their squad, but both of them were acting stranger than usual. Sadie was pacing back and forth while biting her fingernails, while Frank was just blankly staring at his screen, which wasn't even on.

"Will you two calm down!" Sam shouted. "You're making us all worry."

"Sorry," Sadie said, sitting down. "But you don't understand, this is serious. Kanu got called up to go see the superintendent... for killing another White Rose member! If they were going to let it slip, then they would have just let him come back with us."

The news had already spread around most of the squads and offices. It wasn't something that could be hidden, especially since there was more to the case than they first realized.

For one, the engineers that were in the interrogation room at the time weren't even White Rose members, so no one knew how they got in. They had been captured and were being dealt with by another team. As for Tomas, he had been escorted straight to an Altered holding cell, and they would decide what to do with him later.

For some reason, which Sadie didn't quite understand, they had felt like it was more important to figure out what to do with Kanu. He had been called by the superintendent, an investigation was run, and they would decide what his punishment would be.

"If only I'd noticed sooner, then all of this could have been avoided," Sadie said.

"Don't say that," Frank said from his seat. "No one else noticed something was up, and that includes me. At least you did notice something and managed to stop the first attack."

"Look, the way I see it, we have nothing to worry about," Sam said. "You already said it, they were traitors, spies working for someone else. If that's the case, I can hardly see why they would punish him for that."

Although that was the case, both Frank and Sadie saw it. Oper was already knocked out, unable to fight back. Kanu had killed him out of anger.

Kanu had been called into an office where the superintendent, as well as two chiefs of staff, were present. But Kanu wasn't alone; Hiru was there too as a witness.

"You hardly ever do anything, and then when you do something, you become a big headache for me," the superintendent said, shaking his head.

"Look, it was clear that something had gone wrong, and you guys acted, which I should be commending you on. But you had decided to use excessive force. Is there any reason for that?" the superintendent asked.

Kanu sat up straight as he gave his reply.

"We failed to protect the young one," Kanu answered. "At White Rose, I see us as a group that deals with all matters related to Altered. Haze was just a young person who had been misguided.

"He wasn't a hardened criminal, and thanks to Gary Dem, he had done no harm to anyone. There was a chance that we could have helped him. We brought him into this place, and it was our duty to protect him, but we failed.

"And we failed not just anywhere, but directly in the White Rose Headquarters... I was angry and let my emotions get the better of me."

Once again, the superintendent felt like Kanu was giving him a headache. He could have given a simpler answer. He could have said he felt his life was threatened, as well as the lives of his colleagues, but instead, Kanu told the truth that would only put him in more trouble.

"The fact that you acted like that makes you no better than a crazed Altered yourself," one of the chiefs commented.

"There is one more thing. We have yet to confirm if Oper was even a spy because you have killed him. We only have your word. Killing a White Rose agent won't just get you expelled from the organisation but put you in a cell yourself!" the other chief stated.

"Oper was a traitor," Hiru spoke up. "I saw it with my own eyes. Oper, who was from my squad, was the one that killed Haze, and Tomas had made an attempt on his life."

Everyone was stunned into silence for a moment because Hiru had stood up for Kanu. It would have been the perfect chance to get rid of fellow competition, and at the same time, admitting that the traitors were from his squad. This would surely look bad on his record. Yet he still chose to speak up.

"I see... unfortunately, we still need to take some action," the superintendent stated. "Due to using excessive force on a spy that we could have used in our investigation, you are hereby suspended for one week without pay!"

The news spread quickly, and each squad was conducting internal investigations. Meanwhile, Kanu himself was off for an entire week.

He was on his way home, driving on the motorway.

"What do I do now?" Kanu thought. "I guess... I could visit that place. I haven't been there in a long time."

Driving along, Kanu eventually reached his destination. Getting out of the car, he grabbed the flowers he had bought on his way from the passenger seat. He walked down the gravel path, passing the many graves.

It was a graveyard, filled with graves all over the nice clean greenery. Surprisingly, it was a nice day as the sun was out, and the flowers had blossomed all over the place.

The graveyard looked peaceful with the decorated trees and such. As Kanu continued to walk, he was heading to one grave in particular, but up ahead, he could see someone standing right where he needed to be.

"What are the chances? It's nice to meet you again, Jayden," Kanu said with a smile.
