“These gang members are really ruthless, they even dare to kill a steward.”
“Didn't you listen carefully? They used to be pirates.”
“Most importantly, Netalee City appointed these gangs to official positions, utilizing them to destroy the clues in an attempt to blur the truth.”
“Yes, but at least the murderer was caught, and now we can report back to the headquarters.”
“I heard the investigative team and the army started fighting, but that didn't even come up.”
The story concluded, and the patrons once again started discussing.
The pace of the entire story noticeably accelerated after obtaining the clues from the Snake Badge Consortium.
They went directly to the City Lord's Mansion to demand people, followed by interrogation and case closure, surprisingly quick.
The patrons discussed for a while.
Looking up, they saw Mr. Saban still standing on the wooden stage, smiling at everyone.
“Mr. Saban, nothing else for today? Planning to tell more stories?”
“Let's talk about the latest Demon Dog story then!”
“I also want to hear Mr. Saban's stories.”
The original story ended.
Bards usually leave, but Saban was still sitting up there, seemingly about to continue.
“The story hasn't ended yet,” Saban said, pressing his hand downward and continued, “The headquarters investigative team explored the intelligence, and although there were still many doubts, according to the existing evidence, the criminal was the deceased gang leader.”
The crowd instantly quieted down, their brows furrowed.
The story hadn't ended? Or was there a twist coming?
Then, Saban continued the narration.
The investigative team started preparing to arrest the White Wings Gang Leader, the leader involved in child trafficking.
But before the arrest, they discovered the old man from the Snake Badge Consortium there, the associates immediately arrested both the gang leader and the old man.
As the White Wings Gang Leader and the consortium elder were seized, armies from various parts of the city began gathering at the association.
The Island Lord conducted an autopsy, found out the city's commander was a member of the Evil Cult who had killed the local steward and also arranged the misleading clues.
The local City Lord also cooperated to complete the commendation.
With the autopsy, the army also began to surround the association.
Patrons widened their eyes, filled with shock and disbelief.
Indeed a twist.
The commander was part of the Evil Cult.
The seemingly mild City Lord also turned out to be cunning.
How could this be?
Yeko Kingdom's largest coastal city had become a nesting spot for the Evil Cult.
If not for the investigative team's case being known across the island, everyone would think this story was fabricated, even more so than the previous serialized stories.
But everyone knew it was true.
Saban's voice grew more solemn, his speech faster.
“The army surrounded everyone in the association, Elder Tapani shouted, 'Gianvito, take Investigator and Wu Heng, preserve the evidence and leave,'”
“Immediately drawing his sword and facing the Level 18 Evil Cult commander.”
“Gianvito was about to leave with Wu Heng and the Investigator, but Wu Heng said, 'Hold on, I can find the City Lord's location, I'll go kill him, wait for me.'”
“Without waiting for the others to respond, he charged out, leading the way.”
The investigative team then faced a tough battle.
And Wu Heng reached where the City Lord was hiding, fiercely charging in alone.
As Saban narrated, the audience gasped in amazement.
“Just as the investigative team was about to be overwhelmed by the army, Island Lord Wu Heng flew into the battlefield on a Flying Carpet.”
“Holding up the City Lord's corpse, he shouted, 'The City Lord is dead, those who retreat can live.'”
“Seeing the death of the City Lord, the army below became disorderly and chaotic, and many threw down their weapons and dispersed.”
“We were lucky that Island Lord Wu Heng arrived just in time, saving everyone.”
“With this, the association officially took over Netalee City.”
When the story ended, the room remained silent.
Evil Cult commander disguising as a decent and kind City Lord, daring to surround and attack the headquarters' investigative team.
This…
It's too exaggerated!
This is even more exaggerated than the Pirate King attacking Gold and Silver Island, where last time they killed the local steward and vice-steward, but this time it was the entire investigative team.
Of course, the most profound action was still from Island Lord Wu Heng.
Unlike previous times relying on intellect and observation to solve cases, this time what made the deepest impression was him alone killing the City Lord, saving all the investigative team members.
As if with the story, everyone saw the black-haired, black-eyed Island Lord breaking into the enemy's lair.
Dragging the City Lord out.
Turning a detective story into an action-packed tale.
Making everyone involuntarily feel admiration.
No less formidable than those Level 18s.
“Mr. Saban, is it the end? No sequel, right?”
Saban stood and bowed, “No, there's no sequel.”
“Island Lord is really fierce!”
Island Lord's Mansion.
Wu Heng sat in the radio room, holding a wireless handset.
On the other side, was Wen Mansha, who was trying to soothe a child while speaking.
“Master, our army has advanced further by two cities, the city's defensive forces have basically fled, and there was hardly any resistance,” Wen Mansha softly said.
Yeko Kingdom's decision to challenge Lundham City now seemed to have backfired.
After the Skeleton Army crossed the border, they were unstoppable, basically steamrolling their way through.
And in this world, the population of every city is limited, tens of thousands constitute a big city.
The population of villages and towns is mostly in the hundreds to thousands.
Any minor resistance was like providing troops for the Skeleton Army.
After being killed, the accompanying Skeleton Mages converted all into the Skeleton Army.
The current situation seemed to have formed a closed loop.
