The Deadly Assassin Robin by Tristan Storm

The Deadly Assassin Robin Chapter 1038 Just ThrowIn 72% Finished The interrogation hall in the Inspection Bureau was so silent that the air itself felt heavy.

Eugene was now feeling an unfamiliar chill creeping up his spine.

He had been unsettled earlier when Robin threatened to expose his hidden dealings, but the worst-case scenawas just public disgrace.

He could disappear for a while, wait for the storm to pass, and then return to his old ways.

But now, hearing Robin's icy tone, a deep fear took root in his heart. He had heard rumors about the former general of the Special Operations Military Region.

Robin wasn't the usual kind of officer-he had cfrom an unusual background, parachuting into the military world with a style completely different from the traditional chain of command.

He ignored the rules, disregarded hierarchy, and carried himself with an air of defiance that set him apart.

It was said that he had ties to the World of Darkness, and ever since he left the military, there had been endless speculation about his true role.

Many assumed the higher-ups needed someone capable, so they placed him in a position of authority. To them, Robin was merely a pawn in a much larger game.

Eugene had always believed in the power of social circles, strategy, wealth, and connections. He was deeply skeptical of Robin's so-called legends.

As a deputy director from a prestigious family, he refused to believe that an ordinary person like Robin had ever experienced the ruthless political maneuvering of the elite.

And yet, after all that, Robin still dared to ignore the constraints of rules and regulations, forging ahead without hesitation or retreat.

Since ancient times, it was an unspoken rule that commoners didn't challenge officials.

The so-called heroes of history were merely pawns in power struggles, conveniently placed at the right moment.

Those in power manipulated others to achieve their goals, using them to eliminate threats while orchestrating everything behind the scenes.

After a brief moment of unease, Eugene scoffed at himself and gradually regained his composure.

As a member of the Fields-one of the top five wealthy families in Brighton-there was no way he could be challenged by a mere commoner with no official status.

No matter what Robin had achieved, Eugene was convinced he wouldn't dare go against someone with real authority.

Many people talked tough, but those willing to take real action were exceedingly rare.

Eugene took a deep breath and said coldly, "Robin, are you threatening a public official?" Robin looked up at the deputy director-whose round belly strained against his uniform-and smiled. "A 1/3 09:10 Tue, 18 Feb Chapter 1038 Just ThrowIn Eugene's plump face twitched violently, almost dislodging the few hairs still clinging to his scalp. $0000 72%E Finished Instinctively, he tilted his head as if trying to protect what remained of his hair from falling out completely.

At that moment, he wished he could order the law enforcement guards to shoot Robin on the spot. But reason held him back.

If he couldn't deal with Robin directly, he would make him disappear behind the scenes.

With the power of the Fields, Eugene had countless ways to quietly eliminate someone like Robin without a trace.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted outside the hall. "Stop! You can't go in!" "We're here for Robin and Joanna!” It was the voices of Marissa, Brenda, and Shirley.

"Mr. Field has ordered that no one is allowed entry!" "The Inspection Bureau is supposed to serve the people! Are we to be turned away when we have something to say?" Eugene and the staff turned toward the entrance.

Marissa, Brenda, and Shirley stood outside, anxiously trying to look inside.

Short in stature, Marissa peered out from under the arm of a law enforcement guard and called out, "Robin! Renee! We're here!" Robin and Joanna exchanged glances, warmth flashing in their eyes when they saw Marrisa's anxiety. Marissa wasn't highly educated, nor did she hold lofty ideals about justice.

But when her children faced injustice or danger, she would charge forward without hesitation, fearless in her resolve, "Move aside!" Marissa shoved against the law enforcement officers. "If anyone dares lay a hand on Robin, I'll fight them!" Eugene watched the scene unfold, his embarrassment deepening. He clenched his jaw. “Let them in! Take their statements, then charge them with unlawfully storming the Inspection Bureau. Detain them!” Marissa, Shirley, and Brenda rushed over to Robin and Joanna.

"Robin!" Shirley stepped forward, her worry evident. If not for the situation, she might have thrown herself into his arms.

"Renee, they didn't do anything to you, did they?" Joanna shook her head. "I'm fine, Shirley. It's just... the accusations they're making are utterly absurd!" "Don't be afraid, Renee," Marissa said furiously. "This is our money-we don't have to deal with their ridiculous nonsense!" "Who's in charge here? I just have one question-whose twisted idea was it to drag Joanna through the mud? "Her scholarship is completely legal! It was granted through an official agreement with Brighton University's 2/3 09:10 Tue, 18 Feb 0 Chapter 1038 Just ThrowIn 72% Finished funding foundation, and every cent cfrom a designated scholarship account. Everything was done by the book. How could that possibly be considered a crime?

"What's your goal? Are you just trying to stir up trouble because you have nothing better, to dox" She crossed her arms defiantly. "Unless you can give us a real explanation, I'm not leaving!" Robin watched Marrisa's fiery stance, a hint of amusement flickering in his eyes.

Eugene's face darkened. “Who do you think you are? This is the Inspection Bureau, not smarketplace where you can throw a tantrum! If you keep running your mouth, I can have you detained on the spot!" Marrisa let out a slow breath, steadying herself. "I'm nobody special-just a regular citizen!" she shot back.

"But tell me, where's your proof that Joanna's scholarship was obtained illegally? "Or do you think the Inspection Bureau can fabricate accusations out of thin air, like sbad scriptwriter making up stories with no logic?"

X Eugene, clearly irritated by her relentless questioning, gestured to the officers nearby. Take her statement. Once that's done, lock her in the reflection room for the night." Marrisa raised an eyebrow. "Go ahead! Throwin if you've got the guts. Or you'll be the cowards!” Shirley gripped Robin's sleeve and whispered, "Do you think they'll ... " Joanna also looked uneasy, unsure of what to do.

Robin simply waved, remaining silent.

Eugene flipped through Marrisa's identification as part of the statement process, suddenly froze. His fingers twitched as he nervously rubbed his hands together.

"Marrisa Holt... Demberoan ... senior partner at the Rogarios... CEO of Marrisa Soup Chain ...
