The Root of All Evil
ISLA: I remember last Sunday, when we were all dancing at the beach, Faith told me about her dream.
GRAY: What dream?
ISLA: ... That she's in heaven...
GRAY: We must find the criminal.

Faith's case is now under investigation...
INVESTIGATOR: Did Faith have a fight with someone else?
ISLA: No, she doesn't have a single enemy. Her life is just like.. work and church. Then travel.
AUNTIE: Faith is too good to have an enemy. She must just be a victim of it.
INVESTIGATOR: How about you, her family?
AUNTIE: We don't have.
GRAY: Do you remember what I told you last week?
ISLA: Your stalkers? Have you checked on them?
GRAY: I haven't...
INVESTIGATOR: What stalkers?
GRAY: Since last month, I feel like there are random men following me whenever I leave my sister's home. Can you check on it?
-
Then, we checked all the CCTV records...
INVSTGTR: They really are stalking you, sir.
ISLA: They are all wearing hats.
INVSTGTR: Do you have any idea who they are?
Did you have a fight with someone else before?

GRAY: There are only two people with whom I had a fight back then. The Chairman-CEO and EVP of VenZon Corporación, Steven Esperanza and Jazon Castro.
AUNTIE: I know them, they are extremely rich people.
ISLA: It must be them. Why did you have a fight?
GRAY: They must have discovered that Faith is related to me.
AUNTIE: I also had an argument with Steven before, I was a custodian in their company. I was accused of stealing his watch, costing around
€82,000.00. They didn't find any evidence, yet he fired me. After a few months, someone set fire to the apartment I was renting out. We were so stressed back then, but I couldn't do anything. No criminals were found. The same happened to another custodian, her mini store was set on fire. I don't know the exact issue, but there's a rumor that it's most probably because of Jazon.
GRAY: Sir, please investigate them.
INVSTGTR: Okay, we will.

ISLA: Then, in my room, Gray told me something.
GRAY: I remember something I didn't say to the investigator
ISLA: What?
GRAY: On that day, a woman was rushing me to get the goods on that truck where the bomb was put.
ISLA: Then?
GRAY: I was busy distributing the goods to people, so I asked Faith to get them.
