The nameplate gleamed coldly in the moonlight, and Medes slowly opened his palm, turning the nameplate directly towards himself.
"Sergeant Goodman, Third Company, Second Knights Order!"
Medes read the inscription on the nameplate softly, but to the other five, his words were like a thunderclap.
Although they had guessed Goodman's fate when they saw the skeleton, they still hoped that it wasn't the real Goodman.
When the inscription on the plaque appeared, their last glimmer of hope was extinguished.
All six fell silent, looking down at the skeleton on their coats, grief and indignation filling their hearts.
Ogev suddenly drew a longsword from his waist and rushed into the cabin.
No one stopped him. Joey understood what he was going to do, but he didn't say anything.
The snoring inside the cabin stopped.
Augev returned carrying a longsword stained with blood.
"Mr. Joey, I'm sorry, I killed the two people in the house without your permission!"
Ogev knew that as a soldier, he had just acted somewhat inappropriately.
"So what if you killed them? If you don't go and kill them, I'll have to do it myself!"

"Second, without revealing our identities, kill everyone involved in Goodman's murder!"
The first mission was indeed assigned by Captain Zoro, but the second mission was added by Joey himself.
This is what it means to use public office to settle personal scores.
Joey had to avenge himself for swindling 50 gold coins and having people hunt him down. As for selling Catherine, he was just helping her get revenge. The main reason was that the mayor and his gang were really no good people, and their continued existence was a waste of rice.
"yes!"
Upon hearing Joey's words, the six men immediately perked up. They had thought they would be sent back to Saibanda under the pretext of the mission being over, and that they would not be able to avenge Goodman.
I didn't expect Joey to say that; she really understands them.
A squad leader like this must be obeyed and acted upon.
