Two days have passed since the fire broke out.

My father-in-law, mother-in-law, and my wife were both dead. When I and others found them, we found them buried in the ruins of the basement, hugging each other, and having a black straight knife pierced through their bodies.

It was clear that the fire was man-made and a break-in.

There were some belongings left in the basement that had not been taken away. They were all gold and silver jewelry, jewelry, and the like, mostly rings.

I went to the church and asked their people to help bury the two elders’ bodies in the cemetery. I also hired a special priest to recite sutras for the two elders to be saved.

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

As a son-in-law, I have done my part in filial piety for my two elders.

Everyone was injured in this accident, but I was the least injured.

Mia's thigh was crushed by the collapsing beam, Yani was burned on her back, and Tuoji's arm was broken.

As for Shikari...she was the most seriously injured. Not only was her body damaged, her entire pair of eyes was missing, which made me blame myself very much.

It was me who failed to protect her and was not by her side at the most critical moment.

I feel that I have violated the oath I made to my father-in-law and mother-in-law. Fortunately, they still think so highly of me and are willing to betroth Xikali to me.

I really want to find out who the people who killed my father-in-law and mother-in-law were and why they did it. Was it just because of the treasure in the basement?

Clubhouse, in Mia's room.

"Your Highness, we found the tools of the crime and some items left behind by the murderer near the incident site!"

I sat on the chair and saw the guards bringing in a piece of rubber hose and a gas bottle.

"This is the crime tool!" I asked loudly.

A guard replied: "Sir Randy, this is undoubtedly the murderer's tool. The murderer should have used a hose to pour gas from the gas bottle into the villa, causing an explosion and a fire!"

"These are all products imported from Dema North Asia, and you can see them being sold on the street."

I asked: "What about the murderer? Has he been caught?"

Several guards hesitated and shook their heads.

"no!"

I said angrily: "Trash, a bunch of trash, what use do you have!"

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

Mia, who was sitting in a wheelchair, spoke and said to me: "That's enough, Randy, I know you are in a bad mood, but there is nothing you can do about it."

"Calm down first, we will investigate slowly, and we will eventually get results."

A guard took out a medal from his arms, put it on the ground and said, "Your Highness, Mr. Randy, we found this next to the crime tools left by the murderer."

"Hey, this is it?" I stared at the silver medal and took out an identical one from my pocket.

Mia was surprised and said: "Medal of Brave?"

I asked: "Your Highness, do you know what this is?"

Mia said: "Of course, this is the medal of bravery. Only brave men can possess it. It is silver, which means that its owner is at the silver level!"

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

Mia nodded slightly, touched her chin and said: "Who on earth would attack us, and also break into the house..."

She asked the guards: "Besides the treasures of the people in the basement, is there anything else that has been lost?"

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

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

"The murderer probably escaped on horseback after he succeeded!" Mia's deep voice said.

I was a little upset and wanted to cut the murderer into pieces right now.

He killed my parents-in-law and caused Xikali to lose her eyes. I must find and kill him.

Mia looked at me at this time and said to me: "Randy, you look like you are in a bad mood?

Let’s go see Hikari, she…”

"I see."

I nodded immediately and turned to leave.

This club is private property and is owned by the local aristocratic grandpa. Next to it is the medical center, where Hikari and the others are treated for their injuries.

"Clap."

There was the sound of a cup being smashed in the ward, followed closely by Hikari's cry.

I ran in quickly and found Hikari covered in bandages, covering her eyes and crying sadly. There was a broken glass on the floor.

"Hikari!"

After I got close, I hugged her and asked, "What happened just now? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Shikari cried and said: "Randy, I...my eyes are broken. Now I can't even drink from a glass. Am I going to become blind in the future?"

"No, Hikari, I promise you, you will never become blind!" I said comfortingly.

"No, you are lying to me!" Xikali burst into tears.

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

"But...but my parents, how are they?" she asked.

I did not tell Xikali about the death of the second elder.

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

So, I lied and said, "The therapist said they were fine. They are recovering now and will wake up after sleeping for a while."

"Really, Randy, I have no eyes now, don't lie to me." Hikari's voice.

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

"Yeah." Hikari sniffed and snuggled into my arms.

A female caregiver came in and helped clean the glass on the floor.

I got angry when I saw her and yelled: "What are you doing? Why are you here now? My wife just cried for a long time. Are you deaf?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, sir!" The female caregiver was so frightened by me that she turned pale and quickly backed away.

I said, "Hurry up and get some water. My wife is thirsty. If this happens again next time, I will make you look good!"

"Yes, yes, I'm going to get water right now!"

The female caregiver quickly turned around and ran away.

"Randy, don't be like this. She did nothing wrong. It's you who are wrong. Why are you yelling at her?" Shikari accused me.

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

Xikali asked: "Are Yani and the others okay?"

"Fortunately, they are all recovering from their injuries. Her Royal Highness Mia is also injured. She can only use a wheelchair during this period. The lobbying work must be postponed." I answered.

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

I looked at her, nodded and said, "No problem. By the way, what fruit do you want to eat?"

Xikali said: "Apples, grapes, that's it. Yani likes bananas, buy more for her."

"I understand, then you have a good rest, and if anything happens, just call the caregivers. If they can't handle it well, I..."

Just as I was about to continue speaking, I suddenly stopped and changed my words: "I will file a complaint against them."

"Yeah, go ahead, Randy."

Hikari lay down, her voice soft.

I gave her one last look and turned to leave.
