PopularNovel"Mrs. Grant, that's all the clues we know for now. You should head back and rest. We'll inform you when there's
news."
| nodded and got up numbly. Theo tried to supportfrom the back, but a split second later, Chief Royce spoke.
"Please wait, Mr. Grant. We still have questions for you."
| looked back warily, unsure why the police officers only wanted him to stay.
| knew the police officers had their reasons for doing so, but Theo and | were a married couple and | was
Munchkin's legal guardian, so why did Chief Royce want to speak to him in private?
Please don't getwrong, Mrs. Grant. We just need to ask Mr. Grant something. It's a routine investigation."
This was even more puzzling.
"Didn't you already ask about it before?
Why do you need a separate investigation now?"
Chief Royce's eyes looked slightly dazed. He looked at me, then at Theo, seemingly a little hesitant to speak.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Please don't worry, Mrs. Grant. This is a part of the procedure. We investigate everyone the sway."
"But you've asked more than once." | was starting to get angry.
"Yes, but to investigate the person involved in each case repeatedly is also part of the process. We seek your
understanding, Mrs. Grant."
| was starting to get a little annoyed by his way of handling official business.
"Understanding? You're always askingto be more understanding, yet what are you doing? | don't see you
going out searching for my son. You're always here investigating this and investigating that. Now, you're
investigating us?"
Chief Royce did not answer.
| sat back in my seat. "You want to investigate, right? Investigatetoo, then. We're a family anyway. If you
want to ask anything, then ask in front ofto save you the trouble of having to do the transcription later."
Theo had never seenlike this before and gently patted my shoulder.
"It's okay, Wanda. They're just going through the formal procedures. Don't worry and wait outside for me." "I
don't want to wait any longer. They'll certainly questionwhen they're done questioning you. Why don't we
just do it together? | don't have that much tleft."
| understood that an investigation was required, but | simply did not understand why they needed to question
Theo.
We were victims, not suspects.
Chief Royce sighed in dilemma. "If you insist, Mrs. Grant, please take a seat on the chair behind me."
| stormed over a little angrily and watched as the people in the room started bustling about.
Chief Royce spread out his book, and the young detective next to him helped set up a video camera to begin
another round of questioning against Theo.
"Theo Grant, where were you between 11:35 and 12:40 this morning?"
| crossed my arms a little speechlessly. It seemed like the police officer was really questioning from the
beginning.
"I was in the garden in front of the hospital."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"What were you doing there?"
"Nothing, I just wanted to be by myself."
"That means no one could prove you were there at the time, right?" Chief Royce pressed him about it as if he
had found a loophole.
Nevertheless, Theo did not panic. "Those who passed by the place can prove it."
"But Mr. Grant, I'm sure you know that the surveillance cameras in the hospital are broken. We can't even find
out who passed
by the area at the time. Besides, even if we knew, we can't take evidence from passersby. Similarly, we can't
prove that you were there due to the missing surveillance footage. We need you to personally provide us with
evidence."

My nerves began to tighten up. Was this the reason why they were investigating Theo?
