Next, she will probably meet the supporters behind this gang, or... one of the dukes, right?
"Upstairs, if you don't want to—"
"lead the way!"
Before Zuo Jian could finish his words, he saw the Draco girl squeeze out of the door frame and walk into the aisle to hold his hand, seeming a little impatient.
?
He turned and gave Ravshini a questioning look.
Faced with her sister's impatience and nagging from morning to night for the past three days, Lavshini thought about it, then just showed an expression of "I don't know" and shook her head.
"Let's go then."

Looking at Abrana who was walking in front of him holding his hand, he also took the hand of Lavishini behind him and walked towards the elevator with the two of them.
As the metal door in the elevator closed and then quickly opened again, the view of another floor appeared in front of Abrana.
However, at this moment, she had almost no time to look at the surrounding environment, but was concentrating on the door at the end of the corridor in front of her.
The "guest" is behind the gate.
It’s the Duke himself... Impossible, it must be the Duke’s messenger or subordinate, but as long as I see the other party, it means that I will be handed over, right?
This would give him the opportunity to come into contact with the Duke and develop his own plans.
With Abrana's thoughts surging, she even walked quickly to the door and opened the door handle without hesitation.
In an instant, the dazzling sunlight outside the floor-to-ceiling window came into her sight, making it almost impossible for her to open her eyes.
However, Draco's strong physical fitness allowed her to only feel uncomfortable for a few seconds before she was able to open her eyes again and observe her surroundings.
I saw a figure slowly standing up from the sofa beside me.
Abbrana opened her eyes and looked at the other person carefully...
I saw that the other person was out of shape, with a big belly, and the top of his forehead was so bald in middle age that only a circle around it was still hairy.
The clothes he wore had...
ha?
Police badge?
Abrana was stunned for a moment when she saw the Victoria Police emblem on the man's chest, shining brightly in the sun.
Fortunately, she quickly calmed herself down.
Well, it is the Duke’s power after all, so it is not difficult for his men to insert a few people into Victoria’s law enforcement agencies.
Well, that makes perfect sense.
"Sir, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."
Zuo Jian stepped forward and spoke to the man with a hint of apology.
However, the latter just wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied.
"No, no, how could that be? By the way, speaking of the owner of this hotel...ah, the boss, why didn't he come over?"
The police officer was of course talking about the gang leader who had long been swallowed up by Zuo Jian.
The latter just smiled and said.
"The boss has been busy with other things recently. Although he is very sorry about the death of Earl Warwick, it is difficult for him to spare the time. Besides, I was the one who witnessed the scene and called the police, so naturally I am the only one who can come forward."
"Oh, that's good, that's good, Mr. Smith, that's great."
Then the police officers' expressions became visibly relaxed when they heard that their "boss" would not show up.
However, upon hearing this, Abrana frowned.
ha?
what's the situation.
Who is this gang leader?
How dare you not be present for the handover with the Duke's people?
Also, why is this dude sent so nervous? Are their emotions reversed?
Shouldn't the gangster uncle next to her be nervous?
"Oh, yes, these two are the daughters of the Earl of Warwick, right? They are really two graceful young ladies from Vaiven. I'm really sorry about your father."
"Don't worry, the Victoria Police Department will definitely help you catch the murderer!"
The balding police officer said this with confidence.
"However, I have to ask more about the situation on the scene this time. You see——"
As he spoke, he glanced at Zuo Jian who was standing beside him.
The latter just nodded slightly.
"Well, what were you two doing when the count was murdered?"
The police officer took out a notebook and asked carefully.
"?"
This time it was Abrana's turn to be confused.
what's the situation?
Why are you asking this kind of thing?
Does the duke behind them care about such a small earl to this extent?
Why do you still care about this now?
It really is like the police coming to question the victim's family...
However, even though she had many questions in her heart, Abrana adjusted herself at this moment and then started to make up a story on the spot.
In a sense, she was extremely good at this. The content she compiled on the spot could even correspond one by one with what she had said to Zuo Jian before and take everything into consideration.
It would be a pity not to write a book or give a speech.
Soon, Abrana's narration stopped at the part where she was discovered by Zuo Jian.
The police officer lowered his head and looked at what was about to be written down in the notebook, then pretended to be heartbroken and spoke to Abrana.
"What a tragic experience. Don't worry, we will definitely catch the murderer."
"....oh."
Then he turned to Ravshini and said.
"Then, the other daughter, I also want to ask you about this."
The Draco girl who was questioned just lowered her head silently without saying a word.
Rafshini: “............”
The police officer suddenly began to sweat profusely at this moment. Seeing this, he had to take a step back and speak.
"Well, it may be a little bit reluctant, but if you can't tell the story, you can make some supplements to your sister's confession."
Ravshini: “…
.. "
"Ahem, yes, really? In that case, I ask and you answer, that's ok, right?"
Ravshini: “.............”
"She seemed reluctant to think about those things."
Zuo Jian on the side spoke slowly.
"Is that so? Yes! That's right. The pain of losing your father must have had a significant impact on your daughter! It's reasonable for her to be unwilling to speak! I understand. In that case, let's stop here!"
The police officer spoke quickly, looking at the left room beside him...
Or.
Norman Smith.
This face represents the second-in-command of the gang and the leader's most trusted minion.
From any perspective, this is not something a small police officer can afford to offend.
This is the case with the Londinium Police Station. Most of the slightly larger forces have the support of a duke, but there is no duke to support the police station.
As a result, they can only communicate with these gangs very cautiously, for fear of provoking someone they cannot afford to offend.
"If that's the case, then there's no problem. I'm really sorry to bother you two."
He stood up and bowed quickly.
".....ha..."
Abrana sat on the sofa and looked at the police officer with a cold face, feeling a little unhappy for a moment.
what.
After all this time, it turns out that this guy is not the one sent by the Duke.
She turned her head and looked at Lavishini beside her, who just lowered her eyes slightly and had no intention of speaking.
"Oh, and the certificate you requested has been obtained—"
The police officer took out a folded document from his clothes and placed it on the table, then sighed in a hypocritical manner.
"I'm sure the Earl of Warwick will rest in peace in the afterlife if someone like you adopts and takes care of his daughters."
"Ha, close your eyes...wait a minute? Huh??? What did you say?!!!"
Abrana didn't even react for a moment, but then, her whole body seemed to be struck by lightning. She jumped up from the sofa, slammed her hands on the table, and looked at the documents on the table in shock.
Name.....Abrana
Name....Rafushini.
Adoptive father...Norman Smith.
? ? ? ? ?
Lavishini, who was sitting on the sofa, raised her head slightly and looked at Zuo Jian, who was scratching his head and seemed a little embarrassed.
The latter didn't expect Abrana to have such a big reaction...
Is he hated?
Chapter 107: Good Kids and Bad Kids
There was suddenly an eerie silence between the three of them, and the police officer who was watching from the side wiped the sweat from his forehead with some fear, as if he realized what might happen next. He quickly stood up and said that he had official duties to attend to, and would not stay any longer.
After leaving a few perfunctory words, he picked up the hat beside him, put it on to cover his balding head, hurriedly turned the handle and left.
Until the other party's footsteps gradually faded away, Abrana on the side finally lost her temper. She slammed the table and the documents on it.
"HA-Are you kidding me?!!!!"
Zuo Jian slowly stood up and walked to where the police officer was sitting, which was directly opposite Abrana and Ravshini.
"Actually, this is not a joke. All the procedures on this document are in compliance with Victorian law, Abrana, Ravshini. However, I will not force you to do anything, such as calling me father."
"That's not the reason at all! Stop playing dumb here—"
Abrana pointed to the "race" section on the document that related to her and her sister's ethnicity.
The white fingers tapped hard on the word "Vaifan" on the paper.
"Don't tell me you don't know anything about our race."
There was a hint of threat in Abrana's eyes.
However, facing the young red dragon girl in front of him, Zuo Jian spoke calmly.
"In fact, I do know your race and what it represents."
"And as luck would have it, a Drake can indeed provide us with a considerable advantage in future operations."
