Chapter 855 - 855 688 Not a Single Trace Left

?Chapter 855: Chapter 688, Not a Single Trace Left Chapter 855: Chapter 688, Not a Single Trace Left The Steward’s status in the local area was not low.

Before confirming that they couldn’t return, would these ordinary guards dare to guard and steal for themselves,
putting the room’s valuable items into their own pockets?

Wu Heng felt this claim didn’t hold water.

The other Association members behind him were also staring straight at the other party.

Waiting for a reasonable answer.

The guard captain’s face looked somewhat ugly, having not expected that returning to deliver money would get him targeted.

After hesitating for a while, he finally replied, “Your honors, there has been a misunderstanding, a real misunderstanding.”

“What kind of misunderstanding, let me hear it,” Wu Heng still looked at him.

The captain immediately said, “These things weren’t taken by us, but rather, when there was chaos in the city, someone took advantage of the situation to enter and take them. Because it involved the local Steward, we retrieved some of the items, it’s just… some of the people below were dishonest and split some off.”

He cautiously looked up before continuing, “Learning that the higher-ups from headquarters were coming to investigate, we feared it would bring about trouble, so we arranged for people to recall these valuables and bring them to you, sirs.”

The brows of Wu Heng and the others furrowed.

They had not expected him to come up with such an excuse.

Meaning, the items weren’t taken by them, but retrieved loot, a portion of which was held back and split among themselves.

With people from the Association’s headquarters coming to investigate, they felt uneasy, so they took the initiative to give it back.

“Once taken, if not returned, we would have had no knowledge,” Wu Heng said.

“Your honor, the City Lord’s Mansion had issued an order not to stir up conflict with the Association. The money, once split, wasn’t much for each person, and we feared it would cause trouble,” the captain continued, seemingly laying bare all the small team’s matters.

Distributing spoils of war was a common occurrence across all ages.

When an Association’s squad handled an issue, items seized could be split directly within the squad, and only important or special items would be handed over.
