Chapter 145 Stay Calm

Without Fenix’s sharp eyes, Cheryllina’s support, or the crowd’s backup, Milhouse’s attitude changed in a

ship.

The interrogation room was harsh and cold, the lights glaring white.

Milhouse slouched in the main chair, his partner Lee sat beside him taking notes.

Their faces showed zero concern. They treated Elizabeth’s group like they were already convicted.

“Name.

Age.

Address.

“Why did you attack Colonel Conte and his family? Was it revenge? And what about the 5000 stellar coins-

was that extortion?”

Milhouse’s tone was sharp, every question designed to corner Elizabeth and pin every crime on her.

Elizabeth sat tall in the cold metal chair, her expression flat. She looked like she couldn’t care less about their yelling.

Fiona’s brows knitted with worry. Peter and Selina huddled close, nerves eating them alive. Tasha stared at her lap, fists clenched so tight her knuckles turned white. Guilt nearly swallowed her whole.

Tasha’s voice broke as she whispered, “Ms. Elizabeth, I’m sorry… This is all my fault.”

Elizabeth turned and gave her a gentle smile. Her voice rang out, calm and clear. “Don’t be scared, Tasha. You didn’t do a single thing wrong. The only people in the wrong are the bullies who twist the truth and use their power for their own gain.”

Then she turned to Milhouse, her voice laced with a touch of sarcasm. “According to Article 17 of the Kingdom’s Public Order Regulations, you’re not allowed to insult suspects or use exhaustion tactics before a conviction. Mr. Wardenfold, your tone and behavior aren’t just inappropriate–they’re scaring my younger siblings, and I refuse to answer your questions.”

It pays to know the law when you’re a newcomer to a place like this.
