"Not that line. The one before," Debra pressed.
Randy thought for a moment. "Wrong direction of investigation?"
"The one before that."
"These are account books, not a treasure map?"
"Yes, that's the one."
"What about it?"
Debra crossed her arms. "I always thought it was weird. If these ledgers were so dangerous, why weren't they
burned? Why hide them in ancestral halls? The Osborne and Houston families probably have their versions too.
Maybe combined, they are a treasure map."
"I've heard of treasure maps hidden in poems or paintings," Erica said, "but account books? That's a first."

Debra shook her head. "Randy, can you sneak into your ancestral hall and get something?"
Randy froze as all eyes landed on him. He swallowed hard and shook his head. "I've hated going to the ancestral
hall since | was a kid. Every t| go, | either piss off my ancestors or get beaten by my dad. Do you wantto
steal from it? I'd need a miracle."
Marion cut in flatly, "Find a reason. You're going."
Randy's eyes bulged. If his father found out, he'd be dead.
"Chill. I'll go with you," Erica offered, clamping down on his shoulder. If we get caught, just say your
grandparents wanted to meet their future granddaughter-in-law."
"You think my dad's as gullible as that guy on the floor?" Randy groaned. "It's too risky. Both of us will be in
trouble if we get caught."
"I'm not part of the Osborne family yet. Even if you're in trouble, I'll be fine."
Randy clenched his teeth and finally caved. "Fine. Let's ride or die together."
"That's the spirit. Don't worry. I'll be by your side," Erica grinned, turning to Debra and Marion. "The Osborne
family's got strict household rules. We'll need you guys to calong and distract his parents."
Debra blinked. "How do we distract them?"
"Newlyweds paying respects to the
elders," Erica replied. "Rand Sem
