Man With Super Medical Skill (Matthew)
Chapter 3058 Murder in Everton

The sudden ambush made Lilia realize she had been abandoned by Scarlet Lounge.

However, with her life at stake, there was no time to think.

She had to escape.

As long as she could blend into the crowd, the assassins would not dare to pursue her further. After all, this was Everton.

Covered in blood, she sprinted with all her might toward the nearby road.

However, just as she was about to break through the cold alley and escape into the crowd, a hand suddenly reached out from beside her. "Help..."

Before she could even shout for help, the hand covered her mouth and dragged her back into the darkness just as she was about to escape it. "Mm! Mm!"

With her mouth covered, Lilia could not make any sound.

Her eyes were filled with tears of terror.

She desperately hoped someone would come to save her.

However, it was all just a hopeless wish.

There was a flash of cold light, and a bright red streak of blood soared through the air.

Lilia felt like a balloon deflating, with her life rapidly draining away from her body.

No matter how much she struggled, the hands clamped around her were like iron shackles, preventing her from breaking free.

"Don't be afraid. Take a deep breath. It will be over soon. Breathe deeply."

The familiar voice caused Lilia's pupils to dilate in shock as her consciousness faded away.

She could not understand why Toby's aide would want to kill her.

...

At the Royal Palace of Montiria, like every other morning, King Gawain I slowly opened his eyes.

However, whether it was due to the weather or his health, he did not feel as refreshed as he had in previous days.

His chest felt heavy, making it hard to breathe.

As he pondered, he heard faint murmurs outside his chamber.

"Did you hear? They found a body in Everton. It was a horrible sight. The body had over a dozen stab wounds, and the throat was completely cut through."

"I heard about it too. Apparently, the victim was close to Prince Gadel."

"This is outrageous! They have killed someone in Everton and a trusted aide of the prince no less."

Already in a bad mood due to his health, King Gawain I felt even more irritated by the buzzing chatter.

"What's going on out there?" he roared to show his displeasure.

The maids immediately knelt down, and the head chamberlain quickly explained.

"Your Majesty, a murder has occurred in Everton!"

King Gawain I's already displeased face turned even darker.

A murder in the capital? This was a direct challenge to the royal family of Montiria's authority!

"Who was the victim?" He suppressed his anger and asked in a low voice.

"Your Majesty, the victim was Prince Gadel's trusted aide, Lilia."

"What?"

King Gawain I's face darkened further, and he slammed his hand down on the armrest.

If those people dared to assassinate a prince's aide today, they might dare to assassinate a prince tomorrow. This matter had to be severely dealt with.

His piercing gaze swept over the kneeling maids and guards, filling them with fear as if a sharp blade was being pressed against their necks.

"Dispatch the Ebony Eagles to find the killer!

"I want the culprit's head within three days."

As his command echoed through the hall, a gust of wind swirled

around the palace as shael

figures darted away from the palace

in all directions.

King Gawain I, agitated by anger, could not help but violently cough.

"Your Majesty..."

King Gawain I waved his hand to indicate he was fine. As he glanced at a porcelain vase, his brows furrowed.
