The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 185 What Crime Was Committed

"Mhm!" Night Orchid nodded before continuing. "After that incident three years ago, Alvin Leonard disappeared from the public eye and hasn't been seen since. But recently, our people have learned that a man called Kenneth Shepard entered the core members of the Leonard family's faction over a year ago. I had someone check his background, but we didn't find any useful information. Clearly, someone tampered with it."

"Oh?" Judge's eyes lit up. "Night Orchid, are you saying that this Kenneth Shepard is Alvin Leonard?"

Night Orchid nodded again.

"Although Kenneth Shepard looks nothing like Alvin Leonard, after verifying through multiple sources, we've confirmed they're the same person!"

"No wonder there hasn't been any news about Alvin Leonard since then!" Spike Arnold exclaimed in realization.

“Night Orchid, is Kenneth Shepard in the capital?" Frostblade asked. "Yeah," Night Orchid replied with another nod. "After confirming their identity as one and the same person, we arranged for someone to watch him 24/7."

"As far as I know," Spike Arnold spoke up again. "Alvin Leonard was already a True Master Battle God three years ago, it should be difficult for an ordinary person to keep tabs on him without being noticed, right?"

"Please rest assured, I guarantee it won't be a problem.” Night Orchid smiled in response.

Ebony Lord inwardly gasped at Night Orchid's words - it seemed like whoever was watching them wasn't simple either; instead, they should be at least on par with Kenneth Shepard. And he was sure, it definitely wasn't someone from SHADOW. With his understanding of SHADOW, there couldn't be anyone at that level besides the "Five Sharp Blades". This made Ebony Lord admire Billy even more, since people around him were all tough as nails.

"Has Kenneth Shepard been acting strange lately?" Casey asked after taking a sip of tea.

"Not that we've noticed.” Night Orchid replied with a shake of her head. "l don't know if he is too confident or if he thinks we have no idea who he really is, but there's nothing out of the ordinary.”

“Night Orchid, have someone draft an official SHADOW letter in my name and send it to the Leonard mansion." Billy said calmly. "Say that SHADOW has been ordered to capture SSS-level wanted criminal Alvin Leonard. According to reliable intelligence, he is a member of the Leonard family and should be hiding in their mansion. SHADOW will go there later to take him into custody, ask for their cooperation.”

"Yes, sir!" Night Orchid pulled out her phone and began making arrangements.
