The Guardian's Return by Old Pumpkin

Chapter 265

Celestial City's population began to decrease, and its reputation started to deteriorate.

However, Stephen and George did not notice any of this yet. They were still overwhelmed by Lucas's suicide attempt. They sent people to investigate the

truth.

The results showed that everything the villagers said was true. Not only were they not criminals, but they were also heroes who had made great sacrifices for Celestial City years ago.

However, they had slandered these very heroes, calling them criminals and leaving them homeless!

This was an extremely grave issue!

"Where's the mayor?" Stephen demanded. "How did he conduct his investigation to cause such a mess? We can't let him escape!"

The assistant replied, "We've been watching him. So far, he's been staying at home with no signs of leaving. He can't run away."

Stephen breathed a sigh of relief. If the mayor had not fled, it meant he was not trying to deceive them. He must be thinking of ways to resolve this too.
