The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 365 Hold On!

Chapter 365 Hold on!

"Huh?" A man was taken aback and quickly bowed, saying, "I dare not! We spoke out of turn. Please forgive us, sir!"

"Please forgive us, my lord!" The few who were just shouting the loudest also bowed and spoke at the same time.

"This is the first and last warning. If anyone dares to speak out of turn again, it will be considered an attempt to interfere with Central Sky Office's investigation, and there will be no mercy!" Bob Stokes spoke in a deep voice, and a chill spread from him.

"Yes!" Many people shuddered and quickly responded.

"Night Orchid, the surveillance cameras in the casino captured you taking the lives of over a hundred people. How do you explain this?" Bob turned to Night Orchid.

"That person is not me!" Night Orchid responded, "The assassin underwent plastic surgery to impersonate me!"

"Is there any evidence?"

"No." Night Orchid shook her head.

"At the time of the incident, do you have any evidence that proves you were not present?" Bob Stokes continued speaking.

"No!" Night Orchid shook her head again. "I usually live alone and there is only a maid in my house. Just these few days, she had something to deal with and took leave to go home!"

"Humph! Is it really such a coincidence? She happened to take leave in these few days..." A member of the aristocratic clan below the stage couldn't hold back any longer after holding in his breath for half a day.

As soon as he completed his sentence, a blast of air lifted him up into the air and sent him flying tens of meters before crashing heavily onto the ground.

"You..." He opened his mouth to speak, but a large amount of blood gushed out, and he convulsed a few times before falling silent.

Everyone's face turned pale.

"Does anyone else have anything to say?" said Bob Stokes in a calm voice.

The scene fell into an eerie silence, with only the sound of many hearts pounding audibly.

"Night Orchid, do you know that with just that video and the lack of an alibi from you, you can be convicted?" asked Bob.

"I know." Night Orchid nodded.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

"I'll just say one thing!" Night Orchid scanned the crowd of officials below the stage and continued, "Let me offer you some advice, if you leave now, you might still have a chance, but if not, it will be hard for you to leave this compound today!"

From being taken away by Special Patrol Squadron three days ago until now, she had never had any worries in her heart. Based on her understanding of Billy, there was absolutely no way he would allow her to be wronged. Although she was also aware that it would be difficult to investigate this

matter, she believed that even if Billy couldn't find evidence to prove her innocence, he wouldn't let her bear this accusation unjustly and face execution. In this aspect, she had absolute confidence.

On the other hand, Night Orchid vaguely felt that Billy might have already found a clue. Otherwise, they would have taken action until now. Perhaps Billy was waiting for the mastermind to show up.

Upon hearing her words, there was a commotion from below as the officials in the courtyard became infuriated one by one.

"Quiet!" Bob Stokes pressed his hand down, and the scene fell silent once again. When hearing Night Orchid's words, there was also a hint of surprise in Bob's eyes. He didn't expect Night Orchid to be so calm at this point in time, and he was impressed by her.

"Do you know what punishment you will face?" Bob continued to ask.

"Yes, I know. For the deaths of over a hundred people, the punishment should be a death sentence." After finishing speaking, she paused and then raised her hand to point at the crowd below. "I'm talking about them!"

"What are you talking about?!" A man in the audience below couldn't hold back any longer and shouted loudly, "Even at death's door, you dare to speak so arrogantly. You're truly audacious!"

"Mr Stokes, she's showing contempt for the law. She should be executed immediately!" another person shouted.

"Indeed, with the blood of so many innocent victims on her hands, she should be wiped out along with her entire clan!" someone else echoed.

Many other people echoed. They firmly believed that the law did not punish the majority, and it was impossible for Bob Stokes to kill all of them. And Bob Stokes did not take any further action. His

previous killing had served both as a warning to others and as a just response to the individual's actions. Central Sky Office had records on that person, and his death was not regrettable.

"She killed the innocent, with clear evidence. Central Sky Office, please execute the culprit!" This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

"Please execute the culprit!"

"..."

Many people in the crowd below, knowing that Bob Stokes had stopped killing, grew bolder and shouted even more fervently.

Just then, several streaks of sword aura flashed through the crowd, cutting through everything in their path. After the sword aura passed, three heads soared into the sky. They were the ones who had been shouting the loudest, and their severed heads still bore a triumphant expression in mid- air.

There was a commotion on the scene, with everyone including those from Central Sky Office turning their heads to look at the few people strolling not far away.

"Commander Gardner?!"

After recognizing Billy, many people shouted out and their faces involuntarily showed a hint of fear, while their hearts skipped a few beats.

"Commander Gardner, are you... going too far? You've just taken three lives with one move!" A middle-aged man took a deep breath before continuing.

"This is Central Sky Office, not SHADOW or the western territory. You cannot act recklessly here!"

"Do you know him? Is he on the list?" Billy ignored him completely and turned to Brigham Bush beside him, asking calmly.

"Yes, I know him." Brigham Bush nodded and said, "He's from another clan. His name is on the list."

"Kill him then!" said Billy.

"Yes!" Azure Fang beside them replied, brandished the saber in his hand and dashed forward.

"Hold on!" The man named Paul Welch from Central Sky Office shouted before rushing towards Azure Fang with a flash. As a member of Central Sky Office, he had to uphold the reputation for themselves since Commander Gardner's ruthless actions had shown a complete disregard for the importance of Central Sky Office. He didn't know how Bob Stokes felt, but at least he couldn't stand it.

"Come back!" However, just as Paul had not run a few steps, the voice of Bob Stokes came from behind him.

"Sir, they..." Paul turned around and looked towards the stage.

"Step back!" Bob spoke in a deep voice.

But at the same time, Azure Fang's sword had already flashed past Paul's neck, blood gushing out of the cut.

There was another round of gasps around the room.

As legend would have it, Commander Gardner was absolutely fierce, surpassing the one on stage in every way possible. It should be noted that this was the territory of Central Sky Office.

"Boss!" On the stage, Night Orchid looked at Billy and smiled knowingly. As she had suspected, Commander Gardner was probably going to make a killing today.
