The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

The Deadly 1048

Chapter 1048 Where Has Justice Gone?

Tears streamed down Joanna's face once more.

As she looked at the despicable faces before her, she felt an overwhelming sense of disappointment. She had hoped to resolve this matter through proper channels without involving Robin.

Even the university, meant to be a bastion of purity and justice, was rife with corruption.

With her identity and the power of her brother, Robin, she possessed countless resources. These wretched people were about to suffer.

Yet, she didn't want to see more bloodshed, didn't want to witness more brutality.

But refusing to use her status and connections meant allowing these villains to trample all over her. Was there truly no justice left in this world?

Were the wicked truly free to run amok while the good suffered endlessly?

Was this land truly nothing but deception, cruelty, and corruption, with no glimmer of hope for those who upheld justice?

Tristram and the department heads looked at Joanna with disdain.

Meanwhile, Yvonne and Valda sneered and laughed as if they were enjoying a grand show.

How could such vile creatures live so happily?

They hoarded resources, paraded around with their fake righteousness, and spoke of virtue and honor. Yet, behind closed doors, they committed acts worse than beasts.

When had the world become so filthy, overrun with monsters?

Taking a deep breath, Joanna turned to Yvonne, who was still smirking in arrogance.
