บท 123: Just a suspect

Cassian was surprised by her tone and replied, "That's why he's just a suspect—because we don't know him." He noticed her relax slightly, but the fact that she knew him and hadn't mentioned him at dinner bothered him. Not wanting to come across as interrogating her, but still eager to learn more about the pastor, he continued, "Asking him a few questions about the murdered family might clear him of suspicion, so we're just here to ask some things."

Russella nodded in understanding. Cassian then asked, "So, do you know anything about him that could help us confirm he's not a suspect?"

Russella hesitated for a moment, then spoke up. "Well, I met him at the church. He was healing the victims of the monster waves that kept coming one after another. He helped a lot at the time. He could even set a broken arm or reattach severed limbs, saving so many lives."
