Chapter 464  The Real Culprits!

Time to reveal the culprits?

Those words alone made many lean forward, wanting to confirm who they suspected within the group.

Berry's ball rolled up and down his throat, taking in deep breaths and preparing for what was to come.

How sure were they that they caught the right people?

For one, during the checks, Julius and his team had lightly tapped the silver talisman papers on every guest before confirming their guesses.

Standing behind a guest and feeling the warmth of the paper wasn't enough since that warmth only meant that they were closer to a monster.

The monster could be seated 2 seats away or even on the seat they focused on.

They had to be completely sure by letting the silver talismans touch them; and when it did, its burners would burn slightly, reducing the talisman paper bit by bit.

It was amazing to say that despite all this, the monsters had no clue what they were doing.

They didn't feel any threats from the paper.

Dorian had also ensured them that it would be like so, making them breathe out heavily from relief.

The thing they had going on for them now was the element of surprise.

No matter what, they must not let the enemy leave this place alive!

.

"Alright! Everyone, put away your murderous intent. We will be calling out the names of those suspected, but it's still up for debate. However, what we require is for all those NOT called, to rise and stand behind us while those without their names behind called will undergo a thorough search from the Soldiers. We got Intel that the culprits should've brought secret letters and evidence here. So we must conduct those searches no matter what!"

Fair enough.

Many who were about to argue earlier nodded after listening to Wiggin's instructions.

The way he handled it gave everyone respect, even the accused.

From what he said, they had several people they suspected. But Wiggins still wanted to give these people the benefit of the doubt by searching them and confirming that his Intel was truly correct.

Even if they found these documents on the suspects, everyone felt that Wiggins and his team would still consider the possibility of "General Larkstork M. J. Lilian."

"Major General blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah~"

their comrades here being set up by an unknown enemy.

So wasn't that reassuring for them all?

After all, no one here truly wanted to admit that one of these many great legends in the room could truly have something to do with working with the criminals.

Receiving the signal, Harry held out his Tablet and began reading the names of those they knew for a fact were 'innocent.'

"Marshall Gray Benkalian!"

"General Larkstork M. J. Lilian."

"Major General blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah~"

As the names were called, many felt a ball of nerves tighten in their bellies, as they looked forward to their names being called out.

It was the same feeling one would feel during school days when the teacher might call out the names of the very outstanding.

Everyone wanted to be in that group, even when some knew they didn't have much of a chance.

Likewise, they felt anxious about the list, not wanting to go through the process of proving their innocence to many.

Bear in mind that once it's confirmed that they were suspects, it will fall into their military, police and Navy records even if they emerged innocent in the end.

So who wanted that?

The most annoying thing would not only be proving themselves innocent but also finding out the hidden enemies in the dark who set them up

Time seemed to be moving too fast now, as many waited for their names to be called with every passing second.

Some held their breaths forgetting to breathe, only smiling and relaxing when their names were finally called.

Hooray!

(>□<)

They inwardly celebrated, while maintaining an expressionless face on the surface.

Phew~

They felt like thanking their lucky stars that no bastard tried to pin this matter on them.

... And then, there were 19.

Seeing that Harry wasn't calling any more names, Major General Dalahali's face turned pale as a paper.

'Doesn't this mean I'm a suspect now?'

Bam!

He slammed his fists hard on the table, but no one in the room said a thing, understanding his frustrations.

If they were the ones treated as Suspects, they too would blow their fuse. In a heartbeat.

'Who is it?'

Dalahali couldn't believe that he who was clamoring to beat any of the culprits/suspects would now find himself walking in their shoes.

Who is it? Who was it that dared to frame him up?

It appears that during the rescue event, Wiggins and the others should've run into 1 or 2 people from his side... traitors who had probably pinned everything on him.

Did they do that to hide their real masters? Was the real enemy someone standing behind Wiggins and the others?

Dammit!

Dalahali cursed, allowing himself to come up with all sorts of theories and possible outcomes that could have let Wiggins speculate his identity.

Even as hot-tempered as he was, he knew arguing about his innocence now wasn't the issue.

All he could do was allow himself to be searched by Julius's group.

Dalahali secretly touched himself first, wanting to see if some wise guy had planted the enemy documents they were looking for on him.

Phew~

Luckily there was nothing on him. So this was a start to proving his innocence, right?

(●^●)

It wasn't just Julius thinking so, but the other 8 who had no hand in the matter, also smiled broadly after being searched with no results.

Still, they weren't called to stand behind Wiggins.

Instead, they were surrounded by Julius's soldiers, as though trying to protect them from the other 11.

The shocking thing was that they were asked to back away as if the 11 had explosives on their bodies and could harm them at any given moment.

But that can't be right.... right?

----

Wallace, who was usually bubbly, turned his attention to the crowd with a cold glint in his eyes.

"WIGGINS! What is the meaning of this?!"

"Don't you dare ask me that, Wallace, I should be the one asking you what is the menacing of your betrayal here!"

Wiggins' eyes were red when recalling the many good times he had with this sworn brother of his.

And to think he brought his family closer to the monster, risking their lives severally.

What would've happened if he allowed this bastard to stay longer in his home than before? The Grandmaster said death would always follow wherever these bastards flocked.

Wiggins was so thankful that his entire family was people who worked in the marines, police stations and barracks. So they were always on duty out on missions sometimes getting temporary transfers to faraway locations too.

Wiggins recalled that Wallace had only seen his wife twice since the lady was often too busy to sit in one place.

Julius as a special soldier was even more busy and strangely enough, wasn't situated in his camp, but in one of Berry's Brigades instead.

So the chances of meeting Julius were indeed slim and Wiggins was just too grateful for that.

"What do you mean? I'm no goddamn traitor!"

Wallace and the rest of his monster buddies went on to talk about patriotism, giving awe-inspiring speeches that made many slowly take their sides.

Even the famous police deputy convinced the onlookers, doubting whether Wiggins had enough evidence to treat them like this at all.

What happened to them being suspects?

They haven't seen Julius's group search the 11 at all. So why did they suddenly conclude that they were no longer SUSPECTS but confirmed CRIMINALS?

Was there a step they missed out on that no one knew about?

[Wiggins' group]: Yes... the talisman-checking phase.

(-_-)

"Enough!"

Wiggins had enough of this shit, cutting their speech short. "No one is more hurt and disappointed than I am right now... but what can I expect from a monster in human form?"

Monster?

All 11 were taken aback, never expecting that there would be a human alone to find their identities out.

Hahahahhahahhaha~

Interesting... very interesting.

Everyone else in the room thought Wiggins and the others were using metaphors but only they knew how true that statement truly was.

"Monster?" Everyone in the room saw all 11 questioned mischievously, before grinning hard.

"How did you know?"

WHAT!

Balahali couldn't believe his eyes when they indirectly admitted it. ('0')

Son of b**ch!

Their earlier speech was so convincing that he could've sworn there was some misunderstanding there so who can tell him how this plot twist came about?

Moreover, another matter made him and the other 8 explode in fury.

"Bastards! Were you the ones who set us up? Were you the one that made everyone doubt us? Tell us quickly! What spies do you have in our camps working beside us? Who was it that betrayed us for you?"

If not for Julius' team holding them back, Dalahali and the others would've loved to shove a fist on their faces using every strength and fiber in their beings.

Damn!

They were almost treated as criminals just now and it was all because of these 11 bastards.

---

Wiggins casually glanced at them lightly.

"I know you all think I'm using metaphors, but when I say Monsters, I truly mean M.O.N.S.T.E.R.S!... isn't that right, Wallace?"

"Yeah." Wallace chuckled, slowly licking his lips playfully.

Since they wanted to play, why not go all out?
