Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2006

At that point, Jeremiah said with disdain, “Don't want to tell us, eh? Hmph! You're the biggest suspect right now, Yazmin. As such, we'll be imprisoning you. You better cooperate with our investigation. Ian! Ryan! Bring her to the prison cell and keep an eye on her! The rest will follow me to find Zeke and avenge Mona!”

The clan members cheered loudly as they followed Jeremiah to the room Zeke was staying in.

Yazmin was still trying to defend herself and Zeke, but her voice was drowned beneath the clamoring of the clan members.

In the end, she was sent to prison by Ian and Ryan.

With Jeremiah in the lead, the clan members arrived outside Zeke's room.

They shouted, “Come out here, Zeke! Surround the room, and don't let the murderer escape!”

The clan members promptly surrounded his room to ensure no one could get out.

Inside the room, Zeke furrowed his eyebrows. I knew that bell ringing had something to do with me. What do they mean by “murderer” though? Are they accusing me of killing someone?

He wanted to step out of the building, but Sole Wolf stopped him. “Let me go out with you, Zeke.”

He was worried about letting Zeke step outside alone.

Zeke waved his hand. “Wait here. Don't come out unless I order you to do so.”

Sole Wolf nodded resignedly and stared as Zeke walked out of the room.

It reminded him of the battlefield in the North.

Whenever things got too dangerous on the battlefield, Zeke would try to deal with it by himself so his comrades wouldn't get hurt.

It would appear that habit of his would never change.

When Zeke stepped out of the room, the crowd went wild.

Peter, who was carrying Mona, instantly exclaimed, “Do you know what you've done, Zeke?”

Seeing the dead Mona made Zeke's heart ache.

As a father, seeing a dead child was something that hurt him the most.

He asked in anguish, “What happened to her?”

Peter roared, “Stop pretending! You know what you did! Both you and Yazmin worked together to kill her!”

Zeke knew it was a ludicrous accusation, but he still kept his calm. “I have no quarrel with her. Why would I kill her?”

“You still need to ask? It's obvious that you used Black Muraco Clan's worm to kill her. I suspect that you're trying to accuse the Black Muraco Clan so the two clans will kill each other while you reap the benefits!”

“That's an absurd accusation. I didn't kill Mona, but if you hand her to me now, I can still save her life. If you refuse, then you'll be the one who truly murdered her!”

“Bullsh*t! Mona is already dead! There's no way you can save her! I bet you just want her corpse for vile purposes!”

Sole Wolf used his energy to speak to Zeke telepathically. “I can't take this anymore, Zeke. Please allow me to wipe them all out.”

He couldn't stand to watch the Great Marshal be insulted by a group of worthless scum. Besides, it doesn't matter if he really did kill Mona! All of you don't get to complain about it!

Zeke replied telepathically, “Don't do anything reckless as that will only make things worse.”

Sole Wolf dared not disobey Zeke's will, so he kept his silence.

Jeremiah stepped forward. “We have a witness who can prove you're the one who killed her. Do you have any evidence to show that you're innocent?”

“Witness? Who's the witness?” Zeke questioned.

“A clan member saw you sneaking into Mr. Andres' house with Yazmin last night. The time of Mona's death matched with the time you two entered the building. Don't tell me it's just a coincidence.”
