The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?

Chapter 240 - Ch. 240 The Culprit Is...



Kaylee entered her house without glancing at the person who had infiltrated her home. She acted as if she didn't see anyone in her house, as if she lived alone.

"It's been a while, Kaylee." greeted the older man regardless of Kaylee's terrible mood.

Kaylee took off her coat and hung it in the coat closet by the door, then walked into the kitchen to brew some hot water. She wanted to drink warm milk to calm her turbulent emotions.

"I heard Rothbert had found you. What did you tell him?"

"..." Kaylee was still silent and still drank her warm milk while waiting for the drink's magic charm to calm her nerve.

"How about your audition? You've auditioned twice, and you failed. Is it successful this time?"

"…" Kaylee sighed heavily, hearing his relentless inquiries.

They had not communicated with each other for over eight years, but how did this man find out she had failed the audition twice?

She knew she would fail as she was busy establishing this Familia cafe and strengthening her martial arts. Now that she had become a martial arts master and the Familia cafe had also been achieved, only then would Kaylee have time to practice her cello.

However, she had to pay a pretty high price.

Her left wrist was now often sore, and the doctor who examined her wrist advised her not to play the cello for some time.

However, Kaylee must join an orchestra team and stay there for two years before returning to Folkland. The cellist of the world's largest orchestra would prove her identity and cover up the fact that she is the successor of Frontier Shadow.

"Kaylee, why is the cold shoulder?" Finally, this uninvited guest couldn't stop himself from speaking up and voicing his opinion.

Kaylee put her glass of milk on the kitchen table rudely then looked at her uncle with disapproval. She doesn't even hide her horrible mood, and she doesn't have to worry about the innocent and crybaby image she has built up.

After all, Pierre Zouch was the one who formed her facade and knew her true character.

"You lied to me."

"I did?"

"Robert has told me everything. He told me what happened to my sister and my family. They even moved north to hide the fact that I was the one on the plane."

Pierre exhaled a heavy sigh as he dragged a chair to sit across his niece.

"If you knew about them, you would come back to them."

"Of course, I would."

"And that would be the fatal mistake you have ever made. If you come back and everyone finds out you two are still alive, one of you will undoubtedly be killed for sure."

"…"

"You were lucky you decided to get off the plane that day. Otherwise, we lost you for good."

"That didn't explain why I should remain dead while my family suffered without knowing I was and am still alive. What's the difference I would be back or stay quiet in this country?"

"You were not ready. Neither of you was. I doubt you aren't ready either today. How is your training?"

"…"

"Kaylee, if you want to return, you must secure a permanent position to cover your…."

"I know." Kaylee stood up and sighed tiredly. "I'm tired."

"Wait." stopped Pierre before Kaylee went into her room.

"I heard you injured your wrist."

"…"

"Let me see."

For the umpteenth time, Kaylee sighed heavily and walked towards her uncle, as well as her mentor. She stretched out her left hand and let her uncle examine her hand.

Kaylee's brow furrowed in pain as her uncle bent the back of her hand backward.

"You've had a fight."

"..." really. They hadn't communicated with each other in a long time, but how did her uncle know right away? "How did you know?"

Pierre smiled faintly at his nephew's innocent question. "I have eyes all over this country, Kaylee. Have you forgotten?"

"When can I be like you?"

"You have a lot to learn. Anyway, Allanach already knows about Frontier Shadow."

"What? How?"

"I don't know. I suspect we have a mole on our side. If he finds out all the FS members are the youngest child, he will suspect Nicolau and me. He had come to New York to pick up Gwen and Nico. I heard he locked them in the basement once they arrived at the south."

"What? How could he do that to his own children?"

"Ever since he knows about FS, he was relentless to destroy it. And he came to Raffeto's son to kill you… I mean your sister in New York."

"…" Kaylee didn't expect to hear that guy's name at this moment. "He… couldn't possibly say yes, could he?"

"He didn't refuse, but he didn't accept either. It was easy for him to kill your sister, and he found it wasn't a challenging mission."

"Then I have to go there immediately…."

"No. He has seen your sister's face, and now he knows it's your sister. He won't hurt your sister as long as she stays in the north. But it was a different case with the culprit."

"After investigating for nine years, FS still can't find the culprit?"

"We have suspicions but still doubt it, and also… we have no evidence against that person."

"Who?"

"Just think about it. An accident that could have claimed your sister's life, who will benefit the most from your sister's death? Everyone already knew that your father loved their two daughters very much. If something happened to one of his daughters, what do you think  your father would react?"

Kaylee was silent for a moment, imagining what her father would do. "Papa will be very sad and decide to stop so that he won't lose another child?"

Pierre nodded his head. "The people who understand your father's personality are the two of us as well as…."

"Conn Allanach."

"The person who planned the plane explosion left no trace but gave a false one. This guy knows our search system, and he also knows…."

"He knows where we were."

"He was your father's second-in-command. He knows everything that happened to your father's family."

"So… you think he's the culprit? But… Allanach was loyal to my father. He can't be…."

"That's why we doubt him. We suspect him, but we have no evidence nor clues. Kaylee, you are our only hope."

"Me? Why?"

"Everyone thought you were gone, and your family had accepted this fact. Your coming back would be the most unexpected, and it would get the main culprit caught off guard."

"…"

"That's why I came here to confirm something. Are you ready?"

Kaylee didn't know if she was ready or not. She never wanted to be involved in the Hades organization, but she was born as Hades's youngest child.

For as long as she could remember, Roxy always protected her and watched over her. She was naughty yet affectionate towards her.

Now… it was time for her to protect her sister.
