Chapter 272 Did I mess with the wrong person?



"At the time, due to the fact that there were only two Iron-class teams in White Dove City, and the Ghost Adventurer Group was of great importance, the matter was left unresolved. Now, I believe that was wrong, and we should be held responsible for the dead adventurers, punishing Halus with six months in prison and fining the Ghost Adventurer Group 3 million gold."

"Um."

Remy's brow relaxed.

The Minister of Law Enforcement added, "3 million gold coins is too little; I think 5 million would be more appropriate."

Lu Qi: "...You're right."

“Then you’ll draft a document.” Lemi patted Lu Qi on the shoulder. “Do a good job. Next year there will be personnel changes, and maybe you’ll get a promotion in a big city.”

Lu Qi was waiting for this sentence, and said with a smile, "This matter will definitely be handled properly."

Fabricating evidence to send Harush to the guillotine is too risky for Luigi, but he's willing to imprison Harush for another six months in exchange for a chance to move up in the ranks.

If anyone's to blame, it's Halus for messing with the wrong person.

Three years ago, White Dove City only had two Steel-class teams, and White Dove City could tolerate Herus. But now, the potential of the Phoenix Flower Adventure Team is gradually becoming apparent, and White Dove City can accept losing one Steel-class team, Ghost.

Lucky didn't mind taking a little risk to befriend the Phoenix Flower Adventure Team.

In the study, the two smiled at each other and clasped hands together.

Noon the next day.

Rhodes, Halus's good friend and leader of the Rock Adventurer Guild, went to visit him in prison.

The towering, burly man touched his bald head, looking embarrassed and stammering, unable to speak.

Behind the iron bars, Harus looked anxious: "What? Weren't you here to pick me up? The law enforcement investigation should be over."

“Um…you might have to stay in jail for another six months.” Rhodes sighed.

"What?!"

Halus's eyes widened.

“There’s a second thing.” Rhodes hesitated for a moment before mentioning that Cam and Linda almost got into a fight yesterday in the Secret Realm Square.

Upon hearing this, Halus was stunned, and then immediately burst into a tirade of curses.

"That good-for-nothing! All eyes are on the Ghost Adventurers, and he still dares to mess with Linda?"

Velen was waiting for the Ghost Adventurers to make a mistake, and for Kam to offend Linda at this critical juncture was tantamount to courting death.

If it were anyone else, Halus would have ruthlessly eliminated such a piece of trash.

But Kam is different.

He is Herus's only blood brother.

Remembering his parents' dying words, Halus sighed helplessly.

"Tell Cam not to act impulsively, and to wait until I get out of prison before we talk about it."

"The Phoenix Flower is doomed, but Kam doesn't have the power to do it. Let him be patient for now!"

“Okay.” Rhodes nodded.

The two severed the secret method of transmitting sound.

Rhodes boarded a carriage and headed to the villa of the Ghost Adventurers.
