“I… I stored it in the underground vault of the villa in the Greenwood family estate… there’s a mechanism to open it under the desk in my study…” Joel continued. “The location of the vault is known only to me, and the list is inside a safe in the vault…”
“White Tiger, you and Rakshasa go to the Greenwood family estate again and retrieve the list!” Billy nodded slightly and instructed White Tiger.
“Alright!” White Tiger responded, then quickly walked towards the exit with Rakshasa.
“The password for the safe is…” Joel took a deep breath and started to say.
“No need for a password,” Billy interrupted him.
For a War God-Emperor, opening a safe was a trivial matter with various methods.
“Okay…” Joel’s lips twitched slightly.
“Boss, should I go with White Tiger?” Stout looked at Billy and asked.
“I’m worried that the Greenwood family won’t easily let White Tiger in. It’s better if I go as well.”
“Stout, don’t worry, they will,” Night Orchid smiled. “They probably can’t wait for us to go to war with the ancient martial art world now!”
“What do you mean?” Stout was slightly puzzled.
“Since the ancient martial art world knows about the list, they won’t let it go easily,” Night Orchid smiled again. “From now on, the Greenwood family won’t be able to return to the ancient martial art world, and their days will be tough.”
“I understand!” Stout’s eyes lit up. “Boss is really amazing!”
“Commander Gardner, please… please save the Greenwood family…” Joel naturally understood the severity of the situation.
“Everyone needs to take responsibility for what they have done,” Billy said indifferently. “I can only promise you that the innocent people in the Greenwood family can live.”
“Thank… thank you, Commander!” Joel said with gratitude after a slight pause. He knew very well that the actions of the older generation of the Greenwood family were enough to bring catastrophe upon the whole family.
“Now, do you know who discovered you organizing this list?” Billy continued to ask Joel.
“I… I’m not sure.” Joel shook his head. “But… if I had to guess, it might be someone from the Central Sky Office or the Cabinet… Because… I only started handling these two departments recently, and then this happened…”
“Hmm,” Billy narrowed his eyes slightly. After a brief pause, he continued, “Alright, you stay at SHADOW for now to recover. Call me if there’s anything.”
After saying this, he walked out with Night Orchid, leaving Stout to continue healing Joel. White Tiger and Rakshasa returned to SHADOW’s courtyard in less than an hour. As Night Orchid had predicted, they encountered no resistance when they went to the Greenwood family estate. Upon hearing the news that his son was alive, Halbert Greenwood, who had been in despair, seemed to see a glimmer of hope and was overjoyed. Afterward, he personally led White Tiger and Rakshasa to Joel’s villa.
“Boss, this should be the list!” White Tiger handed a set of documents to Billy.
“These aristocratic families and sects are really parasites of the nation! They’ve arranged two to three hundred people in various government offices in the capital, treating the capital as their own home!” White Tiger commented.
“Interesting,” Billy took the documents and glanced at them. A hint of coldness emanated from him.
The list of nearly three hundred people covered almost all core departments of the capital, with nearly one-third of them being high-ranking individuals. Seeing this list, Billy finally understood why many highly confidential decisions of the Hall had spread both inside and outside the country even before the night passed. He also understood why the aristocratic families, sects, and the ancient martial art world were so audacious in many matters.
“A bunch of vampires!” Night Orchid walked over, took a quick look at the list, and expressed her indignation.
“Boss, how do we deal with this next?” White Tiger looked at Billy and asked.
“Night Orchid, arrange for people to pull out all the information on these individuals, the more detailed, the better,” Billy handed the list to Night Orchid and instructed. “In addition, have our brothers keep a close eye on these three hundred people. Don’t let them leave the capital. Tell the brothers below, don’t conflict with them for the time being, just keep an eye on them!”
“Yes, boss!” Night Orchid vigorously nodded and took out her phone to start working.
“White Tiger, I’ll go to the Cabinet first. You call Bob and Ian, ask them to come to SHADOW immediately to wait for me!” Billy continued to instruct White Tiger.
After a brief thought, he added, “Also, have Harlan come here!”
With that, he turned and walked towards the door. For Billy, clearing out these trash from various government offices was a top priority. However, before taking action, he needed to meet with the Prime Minister first. After all, the Prime Minister was the head of the officials, and these people could be considered his subordinates. To remove them, it was only reasonable and proper to inform him in advance. Moreover, he needed Urban Woolery to cooperate with him in doing something.
“Alright!” White Tiger responded with a sentence and dialed Bob’s number.
Half an hour later, Billy arrived at the entrance of the Cabinet’s courtyard. As soon as he got out of the car, he saw Ivy walking briskly towards him. Ivy had already spoken with him on the phone during the journey, so she waited for him at the entrance.
“Hey, Billy!” Coming closer, Ivy greeted him.
“Where is Minister Woolery?” Billy smiled and asked.
“He’s waiting for you inside. I’ll take you there.” Ivy led the way, guiding Billy into the courtyard.
“Have you got that list?” Ivy asked while walking.
“Yea.” Billy nodded slightly and then asked, “Has there been any movement in the Cabinet yet?”
“Yes.” Ivy’s tone became a bit heavy. “Before you called me, several Cabinet ministers came to discuss this matter with the Prime Minister, and they seemed quite agitated.”
“Their reaction is quite fast.” Billy squinted.
“Billy, this matter might not be as simple as it seems. You have to be careful.” Ivy took a deep breath and said.
“No problem!” Billy smiled and continued to ask, “What is Minister Woolery’s opinion?”
“He hasn’t made a statement. I’m not sure what he’s thinking,” Ivy shook her head.
“This matter is too involved, and I think it will be difficult for him to make a decision in a short time.”
“You underestimate the Prime Minister!” Billy smiled again.
“The Prime Minister, the head of a country, the head of officials, is not someone who is indecisive. The reason he hasn’t made a statement should be that he’s been waiting for me. He probably has been expecting me to come to him.”
