"Sir, Bro has been dealt with." Jesse said respectfully to the old man.
"Good. Handle the aftermath properly. Don't leave any traces. Remember, the kingdom must not be in turmoil. Our affairs must not be exposed."
"Understood, sir. I've made the necessary arrangements."
"Have you taken care of those people?"
"Sir, I've sent more people to search for them, but there's no trace of them in the capital." Jesse said cautiously.
The old man didn't get angry. He pondered for a moment and said, "Send more people to search the city. Also, strengthen the defenses of the city gates. Tell those forces in the shadows to keep a close eye on the sea. I suspect those people have escaped to sea."
Knowing that they hadn't found Buggy and his crew in the city, the old man guessed that they had escaped to sea. But even so, he couldn't relax his search of the city. Escaping to sea wouldn't cause any serious consequences. If they were still in the city, it could cause a huge riot. Of course, the old man wouldn't let them go at sea either. He would use the forces of darkness at his disposal to deal with this matter.
"Understood, sir. I'll go do it now." After saying this, Jesse saluted and left respectfully.
"Sigh, what a pity." The old man sighed helplessly.
Time quickly passed, and it was around three or four in the morning. It was the time when day and night intertwined, and the city's defenses were most lax.
At this time, several figures, each carrying a bag, stealthily infiltrated the city and headed towards the main streets.
About an hour later, the figures returned one after another. But after they left, there were large amounts of paper scattered on the main streets of the city.
These people were Buggy and his crew. They had begun their operation.
Soon, the sky began to lighten, and figures began to appear on the streets. The first thing they saw was the paper on the road. Driven by curiosity, they picked it up and looked at the contents.
If they hadn't looked, it would have been fine. But after looking, they were all startled and let out terrified screams. The paper in their hands fell to the ground in fright.
Then, everyone was attracted by their reaction. They also picked up the paper on the ground.
Their faces also showed expressions of terror, as well as many other expressions. As the sky brightened, more and more people came here. They followed those people and picked up the paper on the ground. Thus, all kinds of expressions appeared among the crowd.
Some people couldn't believe it. They suspected it was fake. Some people shed tears, thinking of their relatives and friends who had disappeared without a trace. Some people even roared with anger, tearing up the paper in their hands. Their fierce eyes looked towards the direction of the palace.
"Why? Who the hell is the corrupt official who did this? My poor cousin disappeared without a trace. Did those officials sell him to human traffickers?"
"I think this isn't a lie. I caught a human trafficker before. Later, I didn't hear about what happened to him. Then, I saw him on the street again."
"This must be related to Jesse, the leader of the city guard. It's just a bunch of human traffickers who were killed. He actually sent a large force of city guards to surround those people. He's protecting those human traffickers. He must be involved. He might be the mastermind behind those corrupt officials."
"Keep your voice down. Don't you want to live anymore?"
"What are you afraid of? There are so many of us. We're not afraid of him. We just need to unite, confront him together, or protest together. Then, we can ask the king to handle this. I don't believe the king wouldn't handle it."
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Let's go find the king. We must get an explanation from Jesse."
"Let's go, everyone! We can't let these corrupt officials get away with this!"
The crowd was completely enraged by the contents of the leaflets. Many of them had relatives or friends who had disappeared without a trace. Now that they knew the truth, they all decided to find the king to seek justice.
Meanwhile, the commotion attracted the attention of the city guard. They immediately rushed to the scene and saw the contents of the paper.
But they didn't react. They didn't dare to do anything. The anger of this large crowd could even be extinguished by their anger, even for them, the city guard.
Some city guards also had anger in their eyes. They also had relatives or friends who had disappeared without a trace.
This matter concerned them. How could they possibly stop the anger of the crowd? Some even wished they could rush forward and join the crowd in seeking justice from the king.
Life is full of different people, and they have different outcomes. Some people, after seeing the contents of the leaflets, quietly left the crowd and ran towards the city guard headquarters.
"General, it's not good! There's a lot of unfavorable news spreading quickly throughout the city. You need to take action, or it will be a disaster."
Seeing his subordinate's anxious expression, Jesse's heart sank. Something big had happened.
"Tell me quickly. What's going on?"
"General, look at the contents of this paper. You'll know when you see it." After saying this, the subordinate handed Jesse the paper he was tightly holding.
Jesse looked at the contents of the paper. His face instantly turned dark. He was furious. The contents of this paper were enough to kill him.
"How many people have seen the contents of this paper? Can we collect all these leaflets?"
Jesse was very flustered at this point, but as someone who had been in a high position for a long time, he knew he couldn't panic.
He also asked his subordinate how many people knew about this. If only a few people knew, there might still be a chance to salvage the situation.
"General, the news has spread completely. Almost everyone in the city knows. You need to come up with a solution quickly. Otherwise, I really don't know what will happen."
Jesse stared at the paper in his hand and instantly tore it into pieces. This matter was now a matter of life and death for him. If he couldn't come up with a solution, he might be doomed. The person above him wouldn't let him go.
"Go down and stabilize the city guard soldiers. Tell them that this is a conspiracy by pirates. They want to eliminate me as an obstacle. Don't let them be fooled. As for those human traffickers, after this matter is over, I will lead them to wipe out all those human traffickers and prove my innocence. And I promise to do my best to find the missing people.
After stabilizing the city guard, take them and try to control the crowd as much as possible. Try not to let them riot. I'll go see the king and handle this matter."
