Chapter 379 A Brainless Family

~Ting. Ting. Ting. Ting.

The faint sounds of a spoon clanging at the sides of a teacup echoed across the hall.

White and black marble walls and floors covered the grand hall.

Looking carefully at the marble, one could see various golden shrieks running across them from time to time, giving off a modern yet ancient aristocratic look.

But no matter how much they appreciated the space, there was so much gloominess around it that made them feel choked as though they were sinking deep down a deadly sea.

Why was it so?

"Gentlemen..." An extravagant woman in an elegant dress and thick pink fur wrapped around her neck softly called out.

Sitting beside her daughter Brya to her right, while her son stood at the left edge of the couch.

He stood to show his majesty and might, with many Kwo guards standing powerfully behind the couch. f𝗿𝗲e𝒘e𝚋n૦𝘃𝙚𝑙.com

And opposite their group were the many field agents, Bewoh and the rest, either standing or sitting on the couches laid out for them.

Both sides were arranged to face each other during this question and answer time.

But though the M.S.S and police officers were serious, these seamless Kwo's didn't seem to take things seriously.

They kept giving their attention to Ghu Sota, as well as acting out a sorrowful play that no one called for.

Everyone had the urge to roll their eyeballs at this ridiculous group... Especially Mrs. Kwo, who seemed very lacking in common sense.

Good heavens... Even her acting was so bad.

She rose to her feet and took out her hanky to wipe her non-existent tears.

'Lady... You say you haven't slept a wink because of all the troubles going on. But why do you look so plump with your pedicure looking newly down?'

"Oh... Woe is me... My darling husband has been maliciously targeted. My poor and beloved house helpers have fled the house and caused a big scandal, making people think they are missing."

Wooooo~

She shed some crocodile tears while peeping at the group. And Brya also wiped her 'tears' while patting her mother's back in comfort.

"_" [Everyone]

If you want to perform, why not auction for a movie role?

.

Wooooooo~

"My enemies are at work. How can it be a coincidence? They definitely planned it to make us look bad. But luckily, you brave people will bring justice to us. So hurry... Do your investigations... We, the Kwo's, have nothing to hide!"

Madam Kwo spoke 'heroically,' wanting to give the impression of a soft lily forced to be strong.

And Brya, who had been secretly making shy passes at Ghu Sota, also did the same.

The mother and daughter pair were indeed cut out of the same cloth.

Initially, they thought her son might be the only sane one. But his following made them swallow their good thoughts on him.

"Young Master Ghu, please forgive my mother and sister for their outburst. They have been through a lot this time and are so pitiful... Young Master Ghu, I know this sort of thing isn't your style, so why don't I show you around the ace while the professionals do their thing?"

The Kwo boy was eyeing Ghu Sota too, seeing this as an opportunity to be close friends with Sota.

He was like a dog, licking the feet of its master.

[Ghu Sota, Everyone else]: "_."

How did these people's brains grow?

Sota was helpless and annoyed. Don't they see him sitting amongst the group of inspectors? So why do they automatically assume he wasn't a part of this?

Augh~

.

5, 10, 15, 20... 40 minutes went by slowly, as everyone felt it an eternity just being in the same room as these people.

If their brains were lightbulbs, they would be 1 Watt bulbs.

Simple questions were asked at every turn. Yet, they managed to make every response relate to Ghu Sota.

[Investigator]: "On the evening of your husband/father's accident, between the times of 7:05 P.M to 7:47 P.M... where were you?"

[Brya]: "Officers, I was in my bathroom taking a... Well, I'm very shy. But since you want to know, then I'm unwilling to speak. I was taking a hot bubble bath while thinking of my crush... And just in case you want to know who it is, I can't say the name of my crush yet. But I really, really, love him."

[Madam Kwo]: "Officers, my daughter nevertheless. She really loves her crush."

[Brother]: "That's right, officers. My sister has it real bad for her crush."

[Everyone]:...

Who the hell asked about her crush? What we want to know is where you were during that fateful incident!!!

My crush this... My crush that... I love my crush, my sister adores her crush...

Were they in some dating show?

Even they, the investigators, field agents, and rookie exorcists, were getting too tired of listening to these people's ramblings.

It wasn't until Payne gave the signal that the session ended.

Everyone inwardly felt like thanking their lucky stars for coming off such an I.Q demoralizing session.

They looked at their superior gratefully.

[Payne]: (-_-)

Don't thank him. He too wanted to leave... Or rather, take a break before speaking to these idiot Kwos again.

After all, for protocol reasons, they did have to ask every single thing, even if it took a hundred years for this damn family to answer it all.

"Thank you for taking the time to speak to us. We have a search warrant to go through every part of the waste. So please, I need you and your workers to exit the estate for at least 3 hours."

"Who?" Madam Kwo felt uncomfortable.

What if these police officers steal her jewelry?

Payne couldn't care less about her thoughts.

"Madam! Everyone, be they workers or guards, is to be searched before leaving the gates. So be prepared... That is all."

Now, leave!

It was time to clear the scene for the real people to do their work.
