The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 488

Chapter 488 A Mystery

Bang! Bang!

The old man's words had barely finished when two men and a woman tumbled down, somersaulting a few times before collapsing on the ground, twitching for a moment before going still.

"Damn it..." the old man exclaimed in pain.

Whoosh!

At the same time, Billy flicked his wrist, and three silver needles shot into the old man's body at a speed rivaling bullets.

"You..." The old man managed to utter a word before a powerful gust of wind struck him in the chest, sending him sprawling to the ground, unconscious.

"Boss!" At that moment, Ian Blade rushed over to Billy.

"How are you, Ian?" Billy turned to him, his face briefly showing concern. Ian Blade's injuries were more severe than Stout's, and if Billy had arrived any later, things could have been much worse.

"Just some minor injuries, don't worry."

"Take this healing pill for now," Billy took out a healing pill from his pocket and handed it to him. "I'll help you with your injuries later."

"Commander Gardner, Mr Blade!" At that moment, ten men from Special Patrol Squadron approached.

"Take him to the car and head to SHADOW!" Billy pointed at the old man.

"Yes, Commander!" Two of them nodded and walked over to the old man.

Five minutes later, everyone drove in the direction of SHADOW. After getting in the car, Billy made a call to Bob Stokes and learned that they were on their way back to SHADOW. Later, he took out a silver needle and began treating Ian's injuries.

An hour later, they arrived at the SHADOW compound.

"Boss!" Bob Stokes and the others rushed over, and Stout was already in much better condition.

"Ian, are you alright?" Night Orchid asked with a hint of concern.

"I'm fine," Ian replied with a smile. "Boss has already taken care of me."

"Boss, is that the old guy who attacked Ian?" Stout pointed to the old man who had been lifted from the car by one of Special Patrol Squadron members.

"Yes," Billy nodded and instructed, "Night Orchid, he's yours. Quickly extract any information you can from him."

"Understood!" Night Orchid nodded and motioned to one of the SHADOW members behind her. "Take him to the interrogation room!"

"Yes, Madam Governor!" The SHADOW member nodded and led the old man into the compound.

Billy then led Bob and the others to a nearby conference hall.

About twenty minutes later, Night Orchid walked in.

"Orchid, you've resolved this so quickly?" Stout asked.

"Yes," Night Orchid smiled and looked at Billy. "Boss, this situation might be more complicated than we thought."

"Is that so?" Billy smiled faintly. "Tell me more."

"He and the two people we encountered at the teahouse earlier are all members of the Heavenly Dragon Sect, but they were just hired. Mr Mitchell wasn't killed by them" Night Orchid nodded her head and said.

"Hired by whom?" Billy picked up a teacup and took a sip.

"A man named Garfield Badman," Night Orchid paused before continuing, "but he only knew that name, he doesn't know anything about the man's identity. I had our people check the system, but we couldn't find any information about this Garfield Badman. He's probably using a false name."

"Furthermore, Mr Mitchell's death, in his words, was due to the fact that Mr Mitchell was meddling in something he shouldn't have. However, he doesn't know the specifics."
