"Excuse me sir someone wants to see you. His name is Detective Crow." Rune informed his employer. Mr. Crow is in his mid forties and still a formidable man. With dark hair and hazel eyes.
"Let him in, please." Mr. Roque answered him and the detective was ushered in.
"h.e.l.lo Mr. Crow, have a sit. Would you like something to drink?" Mr. Roque asked.
"Thank you, a gla.s.s of water would be fine." Rune left after taking the unusual request and asked the maid to bring it. After a few minutes the maid came and left her employer and the guest with their drinks.
"What news do you have for me today?" Mr. Roque directly asked once they were alone.
"I have sir a good and a bad news. I won't be asking which one you prefer but let me start in the beginning. The girl you asked me to look for was last seen 13 years ago, near a the port. Witnesses mentioned that she's alone and boarded a private ship no one saw her again after that. Although she stayed in the Island for a month before she left." Mr. Crow stopped and look at his employer's reaction then continued.
"What I mentioned is both a good and bag news. A lady I talk too also mentioned that your niece is pregnant, estimated at 3 months. I might a.s.sume that she must be afraid to come back home." He ended.
"Are you telling me that I have to look for two people? Who got her pregnant?" Mr. Roque asked after a few minutes of silence.
"That would be her fiance, unfortunately he died 5 years ago. He died trying to look for her in the northern continent. If you still plan on continuing this search, may I suggest to at least add 2 people to work for me?" The detective asked boldy.
"Do you still have other news? and you may add more men."
"I have hunches but I was not hired for that. I'll tell you more once we find the ship she boarded and thank you." Mr. Crow replied.
Mr. Crow left the mansion after 30 minutes, while Mr. Rogue continued his work. Unaware that someone heard them in the garden and was now quietly leaving.

"Dad, can I ask you something?" Sera asked.
"What is it?" Rune asked her daughter.
"We____ll does Akira has a sister, older sister perhaps?" She started to asked.
"Where did get that idea of Kira having a sister?" Her father answered.
"Hm____ promise me that you won't get mad once I tell you." Sera asked while his father study her and sigh.
"Okey, just tell me." He conceded.
"I was in the garden picking some flowers when I over heard Mr. Roque and a man talking about a girl who's missing, who is also his niece. Since Mr. Roque has only one brother I a.s.sumed that they were talking about Akira's sister." She explained.
"Sera, try not to think of it. No one from this household knows the history and family tree of the Rogue's. I don't want you telling this to anyone without proof. Am I understood?" Her father's reply to her.
"Sure dad, I'll just go up and finish my homework then." Sera replied trying to decide if she would tell his brother about it or not.
Rune finished his morning duty and prepared for his master's meal. He went directly to the library were Mr. Roque would be.
"Is there something else you need, Rune?" Mr. Roque asked.
"Sir I would just like to inform you that someone overheard your conversation with the detective." Rune answered.
"Did this person tell you what was heard?" He asked.
"Yes sir, my daughter actually asked about it." He replied.
"I see." Mr. Roque responded calmly.
"Don't worry sir, I have talk to her and your nephew would not hear it from her." Rune promised.
"Thanks Rune. I'm hoping to tell him, once we found her and its already too long. Thank you again you may leave now." He ended.
"Of course sir, excuse me." Rune said and started to leave.
"Wait! Did Akira called this day?" He asked.
"Yes, he did sir. But he called my daughter's phone and not the landline." Rune replied.
"That's fine, she's a good influence for him." Mr. Roque finally said.
Rune left and continued going through the whole day without problems.
