Felix, who had been buried under the rubble, slowly opened his eyes.As he recalled what had happened earlier, he instinctively tried to get up. However, the debris from the walls blocked his movement, forcing him to exert all his strength to clear it away.Once he succeeded, a cheerful laugh echoed through the air. “You’re just as rumoured. So resilient that it’s hard to bring you down.”Felix was not moved by the voice at all.Instead, he carefully stepped over the debris to search for Austin.“Your physique may indeed be tough. But I didn’t expect you to still be able to survive after all the pain that hit you repeatedly.” The voice sounded amazed, but the small chuckle was clearly meant to belittle him.“Austin.” Felix spotted Austin’s small hand peeking out from beneath the rubble and immediately approached him. He checked his condition, which turned out not to be completely pinned down. The rubble was supported by a large wooden beam. And Austin was still conscious. “Wait a mo

“Sir, you’re finally here. How are you?” Dominic greeted Felix enthusiastically, his eyes red from holding back tears.After several hours of struggling with fear and panic, the person he had been waiting for had finally arrived. It felt like all the weight on his heart had been lifted entirely. “I was very worried about you. It was very difficult.”“You’ve worked so hard.” Felix patted Dominic on the shoulder. “Thank you for not leaving them.”“It’s my duty.” Dominic’s eyes grew hotter as he spoke, and he quickly looked down.“How are they?” Felix asked as he walked toward the room where Clarita was staying. “Has she woken up yet?”“Miss Clarita is fine, but Miss Caitlin… Should we report this incident to the police for a thorough investigation?” After all, everyone in the house had also experienced something.Though not as severe as Caitlin’s poisoning, they were also in poor condition.Some were so helpless they had to be rushed to the hospital; the cause must be investigated. So

"We are from the Norvale District Police and would like to meet with Miss Clarita to ask for some information." Clarita spontaneously turned toward the door, enjoying some fruit while watching television."I'm sorry. Miss Clarita is not feeling well. She needs to rest. She cannot be disturbed," Dominic replied calmly.However, no one knew that his heart was filled with anxiety, and his heart was racing.He had indeed asked his master to report the horrific incident that had befallen their family to the police, but their arrival for some reason made her feel bad.And spontaneously, he felt that he shouldn’t respond to them.“If there’s any business, please ask me. I am the head of security,” Dominic continued. “Ah, are you Dominic?” the detective asked, opening his small notebook. He then studied his face and grew more serious. “Then tell us, where are the other family members?” “Miss Clarita and Caitlin are in this hospital, both in serious condition. Where are Mr. Austin, Miss

The forensic laboratory was silent, filled only with the hum of the air conditioner and the glare of overly bright white lights. The pungent smell of chemicals filled the air, mixed with the aroma of heated rubber and plastic.A man in a white lab coat, Oliver Hale, stared at an object wrapped in clear plastic on the stainless steel table. A leather mask, almost resembling a real human face, but stiff and cold.“Evidence from a case full of mysteries,” he muttered. “Let’s see who’s really hiding behind this face.”He put on a new pair of gloves, then took out a small surgical knife. Carefully, he scraped the surface layer of the mask. The thin piece was placed into a small glass container.“Test the synthetic material first,” he said to his assistant, a young woman named Rose. “Let’s see if it’s regular silicone, latex, or something modified.”Rose turned on the FTIR Spectrometer—a device for analyzing material composition. The machine hummed, and the screen displayed wavy graphs.“Pr

"If we keep avoiding them like this, they'll forcefully drag us away." The more Clarita thought about it, the more anxious she became.The only person she could rely on hadn't shown up yet, making her extremely restless."Caitlin's condition hasn't improved. Austin too... I don't know what happened to him. But he refuses to talk to me. Anyone, you must contact everyone to help us.” Clarita nodded confidently at her own words. “My father’s friends … contact them all. They must be able to help us.”“Is it okay to involve them? I think this isn’t as simple as we thought. Miss, it’s better if we wait for Mr. Felix,” Dominic replied cautiously.“There’s no need to wait anymore. We’ll find our own way. Why should we wait for him if Felix can leave without caring about us? Thinking about it is just a waste of time,” Clarita said, then took her phone and contacted the people in question.Dominic could only watch helplessly. But deep down, he told himself he had to resolve this issue quickly
