Salute to the General novel Chapter 917

Soon, Colin and the Elite Eight dragged Tom to Johann's wake and threw him onto the ground before Johann's coffin.

The Panz family was shocked by his sudden arrival.

What in the world?

Nathan's already back with that criminal?

The Panz family stared at Tom as he kneeled on the ground, covered in blood and looking as though he already had one foot in his grave.

It came as a pleasant surprise to them, though they could not help but worry for their future.

Tom was from the Barton family - a family that no one dared to get in the way of.

They feared retribution from the Barton family.

"No worries, everyone! Our Master brought him here,” Colin announced. "He will deal with any attacks from the Bartons as well, so rest assured that none of you will be affected by this."

"Also, he will hand him over to the police after this and retrieve all the funds that have been stolen. We will avenge Mr. Panz!"

"Thank you, Mr. Cross!" the Panz family members chorused with teary eyes.

At that moment, Dean Zannis of the Johnstone City's police department arrived at the scene with a troop of police officers.

Despite the coolness of the autumn air, Dean was drenched in sweat.

He was reluctant to deal with Tom Barton, but he dared not defy Nathan's orders.

Being stuck in the crossfire between the General of the North and the Barton Group made him fear for his life.

Right then, he went up to Colin and greeted him gingerly.

Colin pointed at Tom and said, "You came at the right time, Director Zannis. My Master got him to kneel before Johann's body and reflect on his actions, so we need you to supervise him and maintain order around here."

"After twenty-four hours, bring him back for investigations. We need you to retrieve my Master's funds from the Barton Group as well."

"Understood," Dean Zannis said with a bitter smile.
