Chapter 318: Inquiry

Two days have passed since the fire broke out.

My father-in-law and mother-in-law both died, and when I and the others found them, we found them buried in the rubble of the basement, hugging each other, and being pierced through their bodies by a straight black knife.

It is clear that the fire was man-made and was a burglary.

There were some belongings left in the basement that had not been taken, all of which were gold, silver, jewelry, hand ornaments, etc., most of which were rings.

I went to the church and asked the people on their side to help bury the body of the second elder in the cemetery, and invited a special priest to chant for the second elder.

Because everyone was recovering from their injuries, no one else attended the funeral except for me, the pastor and some staff who had been invited.

As a son-in-law, I can be regarded as a filial piety for the second elder.

In this accident, everyone was injured, but I was the lightest.

Mia broke her thigh from a collapsed beam, Yani suffered a burn on her back, and Taki broke her arm.

As for Shikari...... She was the most seriously injured, not only did she have more damage to her body, but her whole eyes were gone, which made me feel guilty.

It was I who failed to protect her, who was not there for her at the most critical time.

I felt that I had broken my oath to my father-in-law and mother-in-law, and that they were so optimistic about me that they were willing to marry Shikari to me.

I'm curious to figure out who the killers of my parents-in-law were, and why they did it, just because of the treasure in the basement.

Clubhouse, Mia's room.

"Your Highness, we have found the tools of the crime near the place of the incident, as well as some objects left by the murderer!"

I sat in my chair and saw the guard bring in a hose and gas cylinder.

"This is the tool of the crime!" I asked out loud.

One of the guards replied, "Master Randy, this is undoubtedly the murderer's tool of the crime, the murderer should have used a hose to pour gas from the gas cylinder into the villa, and then caused an explosion and a fire!"

"These are all imported products from Delmar North Asia, and you can see people selling them on the streets."

I asked, "What about the murderer, have you been caught?"

Several guards hesitated, then shook their heads in unison.

"Nope!"

I was furious and said, "Rubbish, a bunch of rubbish, what's the use of you!"

The guards bowed their heads and did not dare to speak.

Mia, who was in a wheelchair, spoke up and said to me, "That's enough, Randy, I know you're in a bad mood, but there's no way around it."

"You calm down first, we will investigate slowly, and there will always be a result."

One of the guards took a medallion from his bosom and placed it on the ground, saying, "Back to Your Highness, Lord Randy, this is what we found next to the murder tool left behind by the murderer."

"Hey, what is this?" I stared at the silver medal and pulled an identical one out of my pocket.

Mia was surprised, "Medal of the Brave?"

I asked, "Does Your Highness know what this is?"

Mia said, "Of course, this is the Medal of the Brave, only the brave will have it, and if he is silver, it means that its owner is at the silver level!"

"In other words, the murderer is a silver-level brave!" My voice.

Mia nodded slightly, touched her chin and said, "Who the hell would attack us and rob our house......

She asked the guards, "Is there anything else that has been lost besides the treasures of the people in the basement?"

Several guards looked at each other and were silent for a moment.

One of them raised his hand and said, "Back to Your Highness, I made a special inventory of the stables and found that there was a missing horse in it."

"It is estimated that after the murderer succeeded, he fled on horseback!" Mia's deep voice.

I'm a little distraught, and I want to have the murderer broken to pieces right now.

He killed my father-in-law and mother-in-law, causing Hikari to lose his eye, and I must find him and kill him.

Mia looked at me and said to me, "

Randy, you seem to be in a bad mood?

Let's go see Shikari, she'......

"I see."

I immediately nodded and turned to leave.

The clubhouse was private property, owned by the local aristocratic grandfather, and next to it was the infirmary, where the Shikari and their patients were all healed.

"Smack."

There was the sound of broken cups in the room, followed by Shikari's cries.

I hurriedly ran in and found Shikari covered in bandages, covering her eyes and crying out in grief, with broken glasses on the floor.

"Hikari!"

I got closer and hugged her and asked, "What happened just now, was there anything uncomfortable?"

Hikari cried and said, "Randy, I'...... My eyes are broken, and now I can't even drink from a glass of water, am I going to be blind in the future?"

"No, Shikari, I promise you, you'll never be blind!" I said comfortingly.

"No, you're lying to me!" Shikari wept silently.

I grabbed her hand and said, "Big deal, I'll be your eyes and take care of you for the rest of your life, it's no big deal, I'm still by your side."

"But...... But my mom and dad, how are they?" She asked.

I didn't tell Shikari about the death of the second elder.

I'm afraid that she will be overly sad and cause damage to her body.

So, I lied and said, "The therapist said they were fine, they were healing now, and they would wake up after a while."

"Really, Randy, I don't have eyes now, don't lie to me." Hikari's voice.

I said, "Don't worry, I swear I didn't lie to you."

"Uh-huh." Shikari sniffed and snuggled into my arms.

A female nurse walked in and helped clean the glass on the floor.

When I saw her, I got angry and scolded, "What are you doing, why are you here now, my wife just cried for a long time, are you deaf?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, my lord!" The female nurse was so frightened by me that she hurriedly retreated.

I said, "Why don't you get some water, my wife is thirsty, and if you do this next time, I'll make you look good!"

"Yes, yes, I'm going to fetch water!"

The female nurse hurriedly turned around and ran away.

"Randy, don't be like this, there's nothing wrong with her, it's you who is wrong, why are you yelling at people?" Shikari accused me of saying.

I frowned and sighed deeply, "I'm sorry, Shikari, I lost my temper."

Hikari asked, "Are they okay with Yani?"

"Fortunately, they are all recuperating from their injuries, and Her Royal Highness Mia is also injured, and she can only be in a wheelchair during this time, and the matter of lobbying has to be postponed." I replied.

"Can you go to the street and buy me some fruit, I want to eat it!" Hikari said.

I looked at her and nodded, "No problem, what fruit do you want to eat?"

Hikari said, "Apples, grapes, just two, Yani likes to eat bananas, you buy her more."

"Understand, then you have a good rest, if there is anything, just call the nurse, if they can't handle it well, I ......."

I was about to continue, but I suddenly stopped and said, "I'll just complain about them."

"Uh-huh, go ahead, Randy."

Shikari lay down, her voice weak.

I took one last look at her and turned to leave.
