The Medallion

"It's true. Leader, please avenge me," Armando said angrily.

"Do you know who did this?" Gilbert asked.

"I don't. But my son had a conflict with him in the slum," Armando answered.

"Slum?" Gilbert frowned upon remembering something.

"Do you know who he is?" Armando felt something was off once he saw the expression on Gilbert's face.

"I might know him," Gilbert nodded.

"Bring him here. I need to ask him in person why he bullied my son and forced him to take poison," Armando commanded fiercely.

"Are you sure it was him who made trouble for your son?" Gilbert asked. He knew what kind of person Armando's son was. He suspected that Rocky wasn't the one at fault.

"What do you mean? Do you think I'm talking nonsense?" Of course Armando would defend his son by not admitting that his son was forced to take the poison because he wanted to forcefully take away a woman from the slum.

"Well, I'll order someone to send for him so you can confront him face-to-face. But I must warn you that he's no ordinary person. If it turns out your son is at fault, I'll deal with it according to our laws," Gilbert replied bluntly.

"Who the hell is he?" Armando couldn't help but ask.

"Prefect Ba, you'll know when he's here," Gilbert said, deliberately keeping him in suspense.

He swiftly ordered his men to head to the Ghost Palace and retrieve Rocky.

After returning to the Ghost Palace a while ago, Rocky expected that he would be summoned soon. Once he saw Gilbert's men, he spoke before they had the chance to say something. "Go back and tell your leader that if Prefect Ba wants the antidote, he should ask me in person here at the palace."
