Then again, Rose had grown by going through countless wars with Amber. Having never experienced bloodshed or fire, Uriah was no match for Rose.
After Amber’s reminder, Uriah finally came to his senses.
He withdrew his shocked gaze from Amber and lowered his head in shame. He winced at the thought of trying to draw his sword at Amber in front of the supermarket.
If he had drawn his sword, Amber would have killed him right away!
He was not even qualified to wield a sword in front of Amber!
“Call the police. Call the sheriff’s department. Tell them we caught the killer… Do I need to teach you how to do such a little thing?” Amber said, looking at Uriah as he walked over.
Uriah wiped the blood from his face and lowered his head as he replied in acknowledgment. “Let me do it…”
Knowing that the danger had passed and the killer had been caught, Shania became excited and eager. She quickly pulled out an exquisite phone and called the sheriff’s department.
Amber handed the remaining tissue back to Shania and turned around to walk into the distance.
“Now that the killer has been caught, l have no business here…”
Looking at Amber’s fading figure, Uriah finally could not resist asking, “Miss, who is Mr. Milos?”
“Him? He’s the city defense army’s commander-in-chief, Amber Milos…” Shania took a long exhale and said as she watched Amber leave.
Uriah’s body shook as awe swept over him instantly.
So he’s Amber Milos…
Amber Milos, The commander-in-chief of Dorodo’s city defense army!
Quentin sighed as he explained, but Killer X was caught and taken care of no matter what. In this way, the fear enveloping Dorodo was finally removed.
“Commander Milos, I think we can lift the lockdown now that we’ve caught Killer X,” Quentin said as he chuckled over the phone.
“Let’s wait a bit more,” Amber said as he shook his head.
“What?”
“I said wait a few more days before I lift Dorodo from the lockdown and withdraw the city defense army back to camp.” Amber continued.
However, he did not explain the reason to Quentin. Quentin did not insist either.
He quickly said, “Alright, I’ll do as you say, Commander Milos. But a Iockdown is bad for the economy, and it scares the people, so it’s best to lift it within a week…”
