Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Bewoh, Raulin, Chan-Ki, Haru, Zhulyn and Butler Sheng...

All 6 men were here!

A strange light flickered in Dorian\'s eyes.

Good.

There was just so much to do.

"Raulin, Bewoh! You\'ll go out with me."

"Haru, Zhulyn, Chan-ki... Purchase 2 more vehicles and a few more stones, according to my requirements."

"Sheng... The estate is in your care. I don\'t need to say more."

"Yes, Grandmaster!"

With that, everyone dispersed according to their assignment.

When it came to this matter, they only had one, which would not do... Especially when they had to run about doing errands.

Additionally, the Academy would soon welcome its first batch of students.

So with the work scope expanding, they needed more and more resources.

Again, since they were Dorian\'s most trusted men, this means that they had to use these remaining 3 weeks and 4 days to boost up their strength and learn as much as they could.

With that, Dorian was off to set up his stall with Bewoh and Raulin.

The day was already half done.

However, to others, it was just the beginning.

7 P.M

~Whooowww~

The sirens went off as countless police vesicles stormed the scene of a very ordinary-looking home in the city.

What was going on here?

The neighbours all peeked out their windows in full curiosity, with some even standing outside the yellow tape line to get some juicy details of everything that went down.

The scene was chaotic, with many police officers asking questions from those who heard the star he screams from before.

"Officers, what I\'m saying is the truth. The old Illu couple had always been jovial and a merry bunch."

"Yes. Yes... They were the happiest and kindest people one could find."

"Officers!... Don\'t get us wrong. I\'m not saying they were not without flaws. However, they did alright and were far better people than many I\'ve come across!"

"Yes!"

Many were quick to verify the characters of the Illu couple, feeling the whole thing too bizarre.

They didn\'t believe that the happy couple could take their own lives.

Wasn\'t it just today that some of them spoke to the couple?

The couple had spoken about looking forward to seeing their children and even looking forward to other things in their lives.

So now you tell them this gibberish nonsense and expect them to believe it?

For many neighbours, they were more inclined to believe that the couple had met some serial killer that murdered them and framed the scene to look as though the couple had killed themselves.

.

~Click. Click. Click.~

Several police officers took pictures at every angle around the scene, making remarks here and there.

Things continued like this

And soon, a few other vehicles arrived at the scene.

"M.S.S."

(Kind of like F.B.I)

27-year-old Gia Donghai stepped off this vehicle accompanied by his subordinate, Leah

Yes. He was cousin to the current head of the Gia household.

And just like the Gia household implied, the majority of his family entered professions all involved with national security.

Donghai lifted the yellow tape and walked underneath it, followed by Leah and a few others who were explaining matters to him.

"Sir! According to reports and several witnesses, the couple was not involved in any arguments or bickering of late. In short, one could say that they were a very happy and joyful family."

Leah frowned. "Could it be a frame-up?"

"Maybe... But for now, it\'s best not to make any conclusions... There might be more to it than meets the eye." Donghai said, thinking of countless possibilities.

What could make a loving couple go the extra length to kill each other?

Was it that one decided to kill the other while the victim attacked in self-defence, leading to the death of them both?

Was someone having an affair? Or was it all related to money matters?

Everything looked clean on the surface. But who\'s to say that they didn\'t have skeletons in their closets?

Or, maybe the truth wasn\'t as gruesome as he thought. Perhaps they were sick or had some deeper issues, decided to spend their last died together before committing suicide.

Donghai had seen a case like that where the man killed himself because of terminal cancer that no one but his wife knew about. And just a few seconds later, the woman also killed herself, not wanting to live in this world without him.

That particular couple left their middle-aged children and died together for \'love.\'

Donghai had been involved with many cases like that.

So it wasn\'t something that he could rule out when it came to this case.

However, the fact that the neighbours heard them looking forward to their children\'s visit and many other things also contrasted his thoughts on the matter too.

Indeed...

They might\'ve been framed, forced or mentally handicapped to pull off such a scene.

.

Donghai and Leah had countless reflected on the situation while still advancing onwards

And soon, they reached the front door.

However, the person leading them suddenly paused and turned to face them with a grim expression on his face.

"There\'s one more thing I left out."

~Bubuum.

Donghai\'s heart throbbed. "What."

"Their bodies... Their bodies are--... Just come in and take a look. But I warn you; it\'s best you prepare yourselves."

Prepare themselves?

Leah and Donghai gave each other brief glances. What could be so disturbing to invoke such words?

A deep wave of unrest enveloped their bodies the further they proceeded.

Donggai\'s eyes swept across the entrance room, seeing countless officers search for clues wearing blue gloves and holding out transparent bags.

One by one, they picked up the evidence lying across the messy scene.

But the key point here was that they were trembling and shaking like bothered squirrels in full horror.

And from time to time, a few of them would give Donghai strange, unprecedented stares.

Donghai\'s eyes dilated.

What did they mean?
