The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 365

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!"
