I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 546 546 This is not up to you!

Under Lloyd's questioning, Desta and her brother reluctantly told the truth.

In comparison, Sister Suna’s illness is not the biggest problem, and there are a lot of other bad news coming one after another.

First, after eldest sister Suna, their father, real estate tycoon Norton, also contracted a strange disease and was bedridden.

As a result, the lack of a backbone led to a series of chain reactions, causing more problems -

The family's business was taken over by the rivals, the capital chain was at risk of breaking, all previous investments were wasted, etc.

Now, the brother and sister are considering whether to sell the villa to make up for the deficit. Before Lloyd came in, they were arguing fiercely about this issue.

"Alas... Actually, the situation wasn't that bad at the beginning. Although the family business was in trouble due to the forced suspension of the Great Development, it is still possible to maintain it. We are also actively looking for a way out, and it seems that we are about to get out of the predicament..."

"As a result, my eldest sister fell ill, and the several loan applications she was responsible for were originally the top priority, but they suddenly came to a standstill... Although my eldest brother took over later, he encountered various difficulties from the bank, causing my eldest brother to mortgage his property..."

"But with this mortgage, everything that my eldest brother was responsible for has gone haywire. He was originally recovering the costs and had already arranged for some friends to invest in the company to help share the costs, but now all of them have fled."

"My father was also very worried about this matter. He finally fell ill. Everything was like a snow mountain avalanche."

The brother and sister spoke separately, their faces filled with unrelieved sorrow and confusion, and they were completely at a loss as to what to do.

But even so, Miss Desta still tried hard to force out a smile and said stubbornly:

"But Lloyd, don't worry too much about us. As long as we sell this villa, everything will be fine."

Mr. John is the same, even more optimistic.

"Haha, actually I don't have to sell the villa. I should be able to think of some other ways. I know a lot of friends outside, maybe I can ask them for help."

The greatest characteristic of this brother and sister, or their entire family, is that no matter what they face, they can always maintain such a brave and optimistic attitude.

This is very similar to the Lloyd siblings. Perhaps the reason why the two families from different classes were able to come together was because of this optimism and open-mindedness that attracted each other.

"It seems that the situation is indeed a bit troublesome. Let me think about what to do..."

Lloyd said this while rubbing his chin and lost in thought and recollection.

Seeing this, Desta and her brother continued to advise:

"You don't have to be like this. We can definitely handle this. Even if you've made some friends, you shouldn't waste your connections on something like this."

"Yes, listen to my advice, brother. You are now a super star in the cult, right? At the banquet that night, I heard many people mention you. Everyone is optimistic about your future, so it is best not to get involved in these troublesome matters. It may have various adverse effects on your prospects."

Lloyd was speechless...

What's going on with these two guys?

The situation at home is like this, why are you still thinking about not getting yourself implicated?

I can only say that if they were not such people, they might not have brought the two dirty little kids back to this villa.

So Lloyd didn't listen to their advice at all, and just sneered in his heart:

Haha~ This is not up to you!

So he spoke again to himself:

"Lend me this study room."

"Eh? Lloyd..."

"Alright, alright, Sister Desta, Brother John, I'm no longer the street urchin you once thought I was. Just let me handle this matter."

Lloyd said this, and he took the initiative to push the brother and sister out of the study, then closed the door.

The brother and sister were both ordinary people, so they naturally couldn't resist Lloyd's power. They could only look at each other outside the door.

After being stunned for a long time, Miss Desta suddenly said:

"I feel like... Lloyd seems a little strange today?"

"No, he has been so righteous since he was young. In the past, my kid went out to play with him and his toys were stolen by hooligans on the street. He dared to chase after them and teach those hooligans who were a few years older than him a lesson."

"Eh? This has happened before? How come I didn't know about it?"

"He didn't dare to tell you, and in fact he didn't tell me. It was only after my kid grew up that he told me about it."

"This... I remember that little John liked to follow him since he was a child. When they moved out, he cried sadly for a long time..."

"Isn't it? The boy took out his most precious toys and wanted to leave them for Lloyd as a souvenir. Lloyd accepted them, but later secretly returned them. My boy was so touched."

"It's a pity that they haven't seen each other for a while?"

"Isn't this your fault? He said he wanted to move out, and I was against it, but you really dared to give in to him?"

"He has always been a child with his own opinions. Once he makes a decision, he won't change it easily... Besides, after he got out, didn't he live in my apartment? Evelor has always been by my side."

"Ah~ Actually, I can understand that Lloyd is a very strong-willed kid. You see, our previous plan was for him to come to my place to be a designer after he graduated from college, but in the end, that plan fell through... He obviously still wanted to create a world of his own, and he actually did it? I wish my kid could be so hardworking..."

"He kept saying he wanted to repay us, but we never thought about it! Really, we ran into such a troublesome thing again this time..."

"I don't know what he's doing hiding in the study. Let's try to persuade him later. He's still young and doesn't realize the importance of resources like connections. They are not something that can be squandered casually!"

"He won't care... So I always feel that compared to our mean cousins, Lloyd and his siblings are more like our children..."

Lloyd was writing a letter in the study while listening to the whispers of the brother and sister outside, feeling both amused and helpless.

So, I really don’t like to recall the miserable time of my childhood…

I better finish writing the letter quickly, or else those two people outside will start digging up my dark childhood history...

Soon, Lloyd wrote three letters and then ironed a clear stamp on them to ensure that the recipient would know who wrote the letter.

One of the marks in particular was burned in a slightly different way.

After finishing writing, Lloyd released his [Projection] again, and then opened three portals for it one after another, allowing the [Projection] to deliver the letters one by one.

After doing all this, he opened the door of the study, smiled, clapped his hands in a relaxed manner, and said:

"Okay, the problem has been solved. Now you just need to wait for good news. Let's go visit Sister Suna. She really misses me when I was a kid."

"Eh? Lloyd, what did you do?"

Miss Desta asked with some confusion.

"It's nothing. I just wrote three letters...Okay, okay, just trust me. I have never let you down since I was a child, right?"

"That's true. You've been more sensible than my kid since you were little..."

Mr. John nodded involuntarily, but immediately changed the subject and said:

"But this matter is really troublesome..."

"Oh~ It's not a bother, really! Just trust me."

Lloyd waved his hands repeatedly.

All we can say is that the thinking of this brother and sister is still limited to the level of ordinary people, and they don’t quite understand the world of extraordinary people.

A dilemma like the one they encountered was indeed tricky for ordinary people, but for extraordinary people, it was really simple and could be solved with just three letters.

So in comparison, Lloyd is more concerned about Sister Suna's condition.

And what exactly happened to their family that caused so much bad news to come.

Although this series of events seems to be interconnected and logically related, like dominoes being pushed down, it is not completely chaotic and disordered.

But Lloyd still had unfounded suspicions that there was something strange and fishy behind this matter.

So let’s go visit Sister Suna first.

........................

"Lloyd, how is my sister?"

In front of Sister Suna's bed, Miss Desta asked with a worried look on her face.

Mr. John was constantly scratching his head and rubbing his body from time to time, as if he was checking if he was missing a piece of flesh, and he kept mumbling:

"How is this possible? This is totally inconsistent with scientific principles."

It was the first time for both of them to experience the portal, so they were inevitably a little surprised and astonished. However, Miss Destar was more adaptable and not as uncomfortable as John.

Lloyd held Sister Suna's hand with one hand and used his inspiration to examine her carefully.

Sister Suna on the hospital bed has fallen into a coma. It is said that she was able to speak yesterday and even walk around by herself, but her body is a little weak.

Unexpectedly, the situation worsened overnight...

But what's worse is that when Lloyd checked with his inspiration, there was nothing unusual?

Just like the normal cycle of birth, aging, illness and death of humans, and the weakness caused by the decline of organ function.

However, this is not normal at all...

Although Sister Suna is a little old, she has always taken good care of herself and looks only about 30 years old, quite young.

Besides, her job is not high-risk heavy physical labor.

And the key point is, the functions of her internal organs are not very old, and are similar to those of a normal middle-aged person in her forties. How can she be bedridden?

Because there was no way to directly use inspiration to spy on her brain, Lloyd was not sure what her current thinking consciousness was like. He just used [Probe] and the result showed that her mental state was [Mild Madness].

This shouldn't be a big deal, it won't cause him to fall into a coma.

"It seems that this disease... is indeed a bit strange..."

Lloyd frowned slightly and asked again:

"Has Ms. Landis come to see us?"

He remembered that Miss Desta's family had such a sixth-level strongman as a security consultant, and his sister's daily safety issues were even taken care of by Ms. Atlantis.

"I've looked at it, but I didn't come to any conclusion. She also invited other extraordinary people from her association to come over, but they still didn't find anything..."

Miss Desta replied.

"so?"

Lloyd rubbed his chin with his hand and couldn't help but think of a very bad possibility.

This kind of unfounded and difficult-to-detect strange disease reminded him of the monster he encountered a while ago.
