Chapter 364 Public Trial of Night Orchid
Half an hour later, Billy and his team returned to the SHADOW base.
Leroy Holmes and Mirabelle Leonard are both lying in a state of coma inside one of the commercialvehicles.
"Boss!"
Billy and his three companions had just entered the courtyard when a group of eight people walkedout from inside. Casey leads the team, followed by Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise,Azure Fang, Frostblade, Soul Chaser and Ebony Lord.
"You're all here!" Billy smiled at everyone.
As early as two days ago when he went to the Mad Blade Sect, he had Judge notify everyone tocome to the capital in three days. Regardless of whether the Holmes clan was involved in thismatter or not, Billy aimed to settle some accounts.
"Hahaha, my brothers and sister, I missed you guys so much!" Stout came towards them with abroad grin on his face.
However, the eight of them made a path for him tacitly and thus Stout fell to the ground.
"Ebony Lord, you've been corrupted by them too!" Stout spat out the grass in his mouth and lookedat Ebony Lord with a resentful expression, pouting his lips.
"Haha, Stout, don't blame me for this. You should let me know in advance next time, otherwise I'llthink you're up to something."
Frostblade gave a chuckle of delight.
"Boss, has there been any news about Night Orchid?" Casey asked.
"Uh-huh." Billy nodded, and then let Judge describe the situation to everyone.
"The heiress of the Leonard family is impressive! She actually came up with this method to frameNight Orchid!" Soul Chaser glanced slightly angrily at Mirabelle in the car.
The others also had an angry expression on their faces.
"Commander!" At this moment, two formations of one hundred members each walked out of themanor. They were soldiers from Group One and Two of Bloodshadow Guard. Approaching not faraway from Billy, two hundred Bloodshadow guards simultaneously knelt down on one knee.
"You've worked hard!" Billy raised his hand and said, "Get up!"
"Yes, Commander!" The two hundred guards all stood up in unison after shouting out loud.
"Boss, what should we do next? Should we kill the Holmes clan or go to Central Sky Office andbring Night Orchid out? "Azure Dragon asked.
"Casey, you and Azure Dragon go to surround the Holmes' residence, no way out! Also, don'tdirectly confront them for now. Wait until I arrive!"
"Understood!" Casey nodded.
"Boss, do you need another group of SHADOW to go with them?" Azure Fang asked.
"No," Billy shook his head. "The Holmes clan owes a debt to the Army of Bloodshadow, SHADOWdoesn't need to get involved." After a pause, he continued, "Azure Fang, the four of you come withme to Central Sky Office!"
"Got it!" The four of them, Azure Fang, nodded simultaneously.
"Boss, what about me?" Stout felt like he had been forgotten by Billy and was a little hurt.
"Stout, aren't you the chief expert of the Army of Bloodshadow medical team? Of course, you'recoming with us!" Azure Dragon gave him a disdainful glance.novelbin
"Oh, I forgot!" Stout grinned.
"Stout, if you keep this up, boss will probably kick you out of the Army of Bloodshadow." SaidFrostblade.
"Don't do that! I am a part of Bloodshadow!" Stout replied loudly, standing tall and proud.
After a while, the crowd split into two groups and left the courtyard of the base.
At 5 PM, in the heart of the capital city, within the courtyard of Central Sky Office.
A temporary stage had been set up in the central square, attracting a large crowd of people whowere chatting in groups of three or five. The total number of people was estimated to be around athousand, and many seemed to be in good spirits. Among these people, one third were relatives ofthe victims, and the rest were basically here to revel in others' misfortune.
According to the time announced three days ago by Central Sky Office, as of 5 PM this afternoon, ifSHADOW could not submit any other evidence to prove Night Orchid's innocence, then she wouldbe beheaded today.
"Mr Welch, the time has come. May I ask when we can begin?" A man looked towards the personfrom Central Sky Office in front of him and asked.
"Are you in a hurry?" The man named Paul Welch from Central Sky Office spoke lightly.
"No... no hurry." The man quickly shook his head. Although he held an important position in thegovernment office, he didn't feel superior in front of the people at Central Sky Office.
"Then just wait!" Paul responded.
"Okay." The man nodded.
"Look! Night Orchid!"
Five minutes later, a group of people from Central Sky Office led Night Orchid and walked out of anearby conference hall. The leader of the group was a young man in his mid-twenties, withhandsome features, a tall and straight physique, and a determined look in his eyes. He exuded anaura of masculinity that was hard to ignore.
"Is he the new deputy chief at Central Sky Office? So young?"
"Don't underestimate him! Even without considering his background, his personal strength isenough to make you despair!"
"Really? At this age, how much stronger can he get?"
"Let me tell you this, with just one sword strike, he can take down dozens of War Grandmasters!"
"No way! Is it true or not?"
As they saw the leader approach, many people whispered among themselves.
"My lord!" Immediately after that, everyone bowed respectfully with humble expressions on theirfaces. Most of those who came here today knew that although this man only held the title of deputychief, he was basically in charge of Central Sky Office. The highest-ranking official was already oldand semi-retired. It was only a matter of time before this deputy chief took over completely.
"Hmm." The man named Bob Stokes nodded slightly before scanning everyone present. "Iseveryone here?"
"Yes, my lord." Replied one male official from the government office.
"All right then! Let's begin." Bob Stokes stepped onto the stage followed by two men who led NightOrchid up as well.
Night Orchid had little expression on her face as she coldly surveyed those around her; no oneknew what she was thinking about.
"Do you know why you're here tonight Night Orchid?" asked Bob sternly.
"I do not know, my lord." replied Night Orchid calmly but coolly.
"How dare you argue back when standing before me? You have been addicted to bloodshed andkilled hundreds of innocent people besides those few SHADOW fugitives. Yet still deny your guilt?Those hundreds dead were innocent people whom were all killed by your hands alone, it's trulydespicable!"
"You SHADOW members have become more arrogant these past two years, so full-of-themselvesand ignoring laws and morals, even daring to deny everything when confronted by Mr Stokes.You're too audacious!"
Before Night Orchid could speak a word, a chorus of condemnation erupted from the audiencebelow the stage. Each face contorted with a look of hatred and malice. Judging by their demeanor,they would have loved nothing more than to rush up and slay Night Orchid on the spot.
"Or perhaps you'd like to come up here and judge for yourselves?" Up above, Bob Stokes surveyedthe crowd with a casual glance before speaking in an even tone.
