Chapter 8 - 8

"Today is such a wonderful day, I shall say!" Sienna said as she gets out of the car.

"Yes!" Lori nodded.

"Well, captain had already booked a ticket for us to stay." Ryu said looking at a paper in his hands.

"Alright then, let's go." Sienna said with a grin.

Ryu stared at her suspiciously.

"Are you alright, Ryu?" Lori asked.

"Huh?" Ryu got back to sense.

"I'm fine..."

"Oh, alright..."

They headed towards the Shigaki towns main big hotel.

"Wow! It's indeed a big hotel for such a small town like Shigaki!" Lori said with a surprised tone.

"Let's go, we should check in." Ryu lead the way.

[In the evening]

Ryu got down to the dining hall. The hall was empty. Not a single soul was present besides him.

"Good evening, Ryu!" A familiar voice was heard.

*It's annoying* Ryu thought to himself.

"Good evening, miss Sienna..."

"Do you have any idea of what this mission is about?"

"Well...No, but I think the reason captain didn't tell us is because-"

"He doesn't know either." Sienna said cutting him in middle.

"Maybe..."

"Oh! By the way, where is Lori? Haven't seen her since she locked herself in her room." Sienna looked around.

"I don't know." Ryu responded.

Sienna deeply stared at Ryu, trying to find something or someone...

[On Helena and Nolan's side]

-knock- knock-

"We are from TSD's *investigations department*, may we come in?"

"Yes, come in." Said from the other side of the room.

Helena and Nolan entered the room.

"Full name?" Asked the security guy.

"Helena Sinclaire and Nolan Wycliffe!"

"Alright, sir is in this room please knock before before entering." The guy said.

-knock-

"Come in!"

Helena and Nolan entered the room with steady position.

"Good morning, Sir Wren! We are here from-"

"Yes, I know Mr. Theodore told me. So what's the emergency?" Wren asked.

"We are here to gather some information about a family that happened to be missing on the incident of West Rosewood."

"Well, do you have anyone from that family?"

"Yes, sir." Helena handed over a file to Wren.

Wren goes through each of the paper carefully.

"Ryu? Adopted son of Mary Taina?"

Wren stayed quited after seeing her name.

"Is something wrong?" Nolan asked.

"Huh... It's is unfortunate that this woman's body was found but she was...found dead..."

Wren avoided gaze with Helena and Nolan.

"I'm very sorry..." Wren apologized then gave the file back to Nolan.

"..."

"Thank you for your help. We should leave now..." Helena said.

"Yeah, if you need anything else, I am here to help."

Helena and Nolan left the room.
