The Almighty Lord Caspian by Cath Nitfisch

Chapter 781 Leaving after Failure

Jett was about to succeed when Joey and her subordinates suddenly Joined the fray. Not only were all personnel from the Inspector General’s office armed, but they also represented the stance of Diatoran’s authorities.

Even if a conflict arose between the office and Life Force, resulting in Life Force being wiped out, Jerry could not express his disapproval about that.

“Chief Sanders, we’re here under the orders of Jerry Andrews, the trusted advisor of the King, to deal with Caspian Lynch. He has plotted to start a rebellion. “Don’t stick your nose into a business that isn’t yours!” Jett mentioned the name of his backer, intending to shock Joey into giving in.

“Under the trusted advisor’s orders? Do you have any proof? You don’t look like you have any good intentions, either. So tell me, who on Earth are you?” Joey asked coldly.

Almost everyone in Life Force had some form of criminal record, and that would surely be revealed if the authorities investigated them.

“Chief Sanders, Caspian just committed murder when so many people were watching. Why are you hounding me instead of going after that murderer? Are you perhaps Caspian’s accomplice?”

Joey turned to ask Caspian, “Did you just kill someone?”

“Yeah, I did it,” Caspian replied nonchalantly.

Joey felt somewhat helpless. She had wanted to defuse the situation in Caspian’s favor, but she could only approach it impartially now that Caspian had admitted to committing a crime.

However, Caspian added, “All of them have interesting backgrounds, though. If you investigate them, you’ll discover their criminal records. The deaths of people like them aren’t worthy of being lamented.”

Jett was panicked upon hearing Caspian’s words, as almost everyone in Skyarch Palace had blood on their hands. This was why they could never hold up under an investigation.

Joey ordered, “Transport the dead body back to the office and investigate his identity. I’ll make a decision after everything is made clear.”

Two employees working for the office came over. They were about to carry the body away when a mentee from Life Force said, “This won’t do. The dead must be
