章 523: Wet

"Friola, if you hide something, we will have to take it as an admission of guilt for killing the young lord," Merasi said, trying to scare the poor girl into revealing things.

"No, I didn't kill him. He hung himself," the girl shouted, hoping they would believe her.

Gassu and Chanam's eyes immediately changed while Ning and Merasi took a second to understand what had just happened.

Gassu walked forward and asked, "Did you just say the young lord hung himself?"

Friola realized her mistake as well. She wasn't supposed to say that. She was under direct order to not do exactly that. However, in her fluster, she blurted out the thing she had been trying to hide.

"Friola, did you see the young lord hang himself? Were you there?" Merasi asked. 

Friola shook her head. She wasn't sure what to do anymore. The one thing she had been trying to hide was already blurted out.

"Was the rug in the room when you entered?" Ning asked.
