章節 1323: The Culprit

The Poison Princess looked down on the man who was kneeling before her. The man was the suspicious person in her mind since he didn't sense anything about his fallen comrade.

The Poison Princess asked, "Are you the culprit?"

"Me? No, I'm not the culprit!" The man shook his head furiously, scared that one word might be all she needed to kill him.

"Then, what were you doing when the assassination happened?"

"I…" The man bit his lips. Although it was embarrassing, he said, "I was asleep. I didn't know why but I was so sleepy that I didn't realize I'd fallen asleep."

"Huh?" The Poison Princess gritted her teeth, wanting to kill this man immediately. After all, a guard falling asleep was fatal in this environment since they could be ambushed during that time.

However, her guard should have been carefully selected, and their strength could allow them to not sleep for one week straight.

Yet, the guard claimed he fell asleep.
