Chapter 192 Facing Punishment

Chapter 192 Facing Punishment

"Commander Gardner, may I extend mt humble greetings. I an Dexter Warren." Dexter Warren bowed respectfully to Billy and lowered his posture. He then greeted Casey with a nod.

"Pleasure to meet you, Agent Warren!" Billy responded with a faint smile. "May I ask what brings you here?"

"Commander Gardner, I have a question for you," Carl Shillingford spoke up before Dexter could respond. "What did Mark Leonard do and made SHADOW eliminate him?"

"Shall we explain to the Special Patrol Squadron?" Billy's tone turned serious.

"You..." A cold aura emanated from Carl Shillingford.

"Wanna fight? Come on then, I'm itching for some action!" Stout jumped in.

"You're asking for it!" Carl Shillingford's aura rose again.

"Calm down, Director Shillingford." Dexter Warren raised his hand and turned towards Billy. "Commander Gardner, Central Sky Office has already investigated the incident involving SHADOW three years ago and we have found the culprits. However, they all committed suicide out of fear." As he finished speaking, he gestured towards a parked van behind them.

Soon after, six plainclothes men walked over carrying six bodies which they threw onto the ground in front of everyone.

Billy narrowed his eyes again.

'What a lever move!' he thought.

Seeing the six people on the ground, a wave of anger once again spread from Ebony Lord - he had recognized them.

"Commander Gardner, this matter has already been concluded!" Dexter Warren continued to speak.

"These six people are all rogues who Alvin Leonard befriended in his early years. They helped Alvin Leonard escape from SHADOW's pursuit by designing the murder of the former SHADOW leader and four Provincial Governors. From today onwards, this case is officially closed and Ebony Lord's wanted status is officially lifted. He will return to SHADOW. I wonder what you think, Commander Gardner?"

"Since Central Sky Office has announced the conclusion, I have no objections!" Billy narrowed his eyes again.

They obviously didn't want him to investigate further. In a sense, he could understand them. Pulling out one carrot would bring up mud with it. If this matter were pursued further, it would inevitably involve all of the major families in the capital city. The influence of these major families in Glavale was not to be underestimated. If they were all targeted at once, it would definitely cause a huge uproar for the country at present.

Those major families were like parasites on Glavale and Billy would eventually have to deal with them but now wasn't yet time.

Then Billy turned his head towards Ebony Lord and announced, "Spike Arnold obey orders! Alvin Leonard conspired with others to frame important members of SHADOW, execute!"

"Yes, Commander!"

Ebony Lord took a step forward, his wrist turned, and a glint of the blade appeared. The next second, a head soared into the sky, and a sense of relief seemed to wash over Alvin Leonard's

face.

"Alright, let's go, everyone." Dexter Warren waved his hand as he said and then bowed to Billy. "Commander Gardner, you've worked hard. I won't disturb you any longer. Farewell for now!"

"Until next time!" Billy replied with a slight smile.

Afterwards, Dexter Warren and Casey nodded before turning to leave. Following closely, Carl Shillingford left as his eyes flashed with a hint of coldness. In the instant Cole Wilson turned around, he cast a meaningful glance at Billy. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Ebenezer Rowe and Stan Mitchell both gave a subtle nod to Billy before turning away.

Once the group had departed, Ebony Lord approached Billy. He knelt down, his voice choked with emotion. "Thank you, Commander, for avenging our former leader and the four Provincial Governors."

After saying this, he bowed three times, his eyes slightly red.

"They were comrades of SHADOW, there's no need for such formal gestures." Billy raised his hand in a reassuring manner.

"Thank you once again, Commander," Ebony Lord straightened up and bowed.

"Boss, is this case really closed?" Soul Chaser asked angrily as they walked towards the exit of the avenue.

"No one believes those six people acted to help Alvin Leonard!" Judge replied.

"If we don't close it like this, what else do you want? Do you want to expose all the dirty secrets of every clan and then destroy them all?" Casey spoke calmly.

"Okay, forget I said anything!" Judge shrugged his shoulders. He understood Casey's meaning very well.

Later, the group arrived not far from the archway. Azure Fang's eyes narrowed as he flicked his wrist and a sharp blade shot into the sky.

Boom!

The archway of the Leonard Clan collapsed like paper mache under Azure Fang's attack.

"Well done, Azure Fang! You're so fierce!" Stout grinned. "But seriously, good job!"

The others also had relieved expressions on their faces.

A few minutes later, they got into their car and sped away in a long SUV.

"You bastard!"

In the central villa hall of the Leonards's courtyard came a hysterical roar that echoed through its halls, followed by an explosion. All the glass and wooden furniture in the hall were reduced to rubble.

After venting his anger, Perry Leonard, head of the Leonard family clan, sat heavily on the sofa and pulled out a cigar from his pocket. He lit it and took a deep drag. His eyes were bloodshot and his face was darkened with rage. An overwhelming sense of killing intent filled the entire hall.

"Please calm down, my lord." Said an old man standing at the door of the hall.

Perry Leonard let out a heavy breath before speaking in an ice-cold tone, "He killed my second brother and destroyed our family's reputation. He really thinks he's invincible! If I don't take revenge for this insult, I am unworthy of being part of the Leonard family. Does he think he's number one just

because he is now only a small leader in the western territory? Even if he takes over as commander-in-chief in the capital war department someday in future, I won't let him go!"

And what drove him crazy was that Billy and his group had actually destroyed the plaque of their family, a symbol of their status and position as a prominent family. No one was allowed to violate it. After today's incident spread out, how could this family still claim to be a prominent clan in front of outsiders when they couldn't even protect their own plaque?

SHADOW was kicking the Leonard family out of the prominent families' sequence! And this was what Perry could not tolerate most.

"Contact the heads of several other families in the capital and tell them I have something important to discuss with them. Invite them over!" Perry Leonard looked at the old man and instructed.

"Yes, my lord!" The old man nodded in response.

"In addition, send someone to go down south."

"What does that mean?" The old man was slightly stunned.

"He claims himself as number one in this world! He thinks no one dares touch him! I want to see if it's really true!..."

After Perry Leonard gave his instructions, fear flashed through the old man's eyes and he trembled all over.

"Will that be..." the old man faltered out a few words.

"Just do as I say!" Perry Leonard interrupted him directly.

"Alright." The elderly man took another deep breath and nodded vigorously before bowing and leaving the room.

Once he was gone, Perry Leonard's gaze turned icy as he muttered to himself, "Leonard's authority cannot be challenged! You will pay for your actions today!"
