The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 356 Night Orchid's Dilemma

A coldness emanated from Billy as he asked, "What's going on?"

"Five minutes ago, Special Patrol Squadron, along with officials from several ministries, came to the base and took Night Orchid into custody. They suspect her of a major murder case." Brigham Bush said with a heavy tone.

"What murder case?"

"Early this morning, in a county-town beneath the capital, a hundred people were slaughtered in an underground gambling den, no one survived." Brigham Bush continued, "SHADOW received the news this morning, and just as Night Orchid was preparing to visit the scene with her team, officials from Special Patrol Squadron arrived at the base and took her into custody."

"Why?"

"They suspect that Night Orchid was the one who committed the murders."

"What do you mean?" Billy asked, his brows knitted. "What's their reasoning?"

"They retrieved surveillance footage from the gambling den, and the video shows a single killer," Brigham Bush paused before continuing. "They played the video in front of Night Orchid, and I saw it too. The killer's appearance, body shape, and hairstyle all match her exactly."

"Furthermore, the killer was armed with a Crescent Moon Saber with a platinum handle, and Night Orchid's name was engraved on the blade. Additionally, judging by the killer's combat skills, she is at least a Warlord, similar to Night Orchid. Among the victims, many were martial artists, and they were all killed with a single slash."

"Based solely on the surveillance footage, they suspect Night Orchid is the culprit. Since she lives alone in a villa and can't provide an alibi, that's why..."

"What a cunning move!" Billy's eyes glinted with a fierce resolve.

Clearly, the other party clearly intended to trap Night Orchid in a hopeless situation. If they couldn't find evidence to prove her innocence, with so many lives at stake, even if she was a SHADOW Governor, her life would be at risk. Perhaps Billy could use his privileges to save her, but her reputation would be ruined for the rest of her life.
