Matsu took a deep breath as the members of the family gathered around them.

"What is going on?" Aoi asked bored.

"We....We have identified the culprits." Matsu spoke up when everyone stared at her.

Oya?

"How is that possible it has been only 3 days!" Miho said surprised.

"We had 3 days." Keito smirked.

"It was not easy. There are two culprits here." Hikaru grinned.

"Wait 2?" Takahiro gasped.

"Yes. One murdered Kirisaki Soiichiro-san and attacked Maino saya-san. The other culprit murdered Kirisaki Masamune and Kirisaki Nohana." Takaki said as he leafed through few pages.

"They were working together?" Sayo asked when Yabu shook his head.

"Nope."

"Please tell us who are the killers!" Aoi shouted as her twin nodded.

"The murder of Kirisaki had been by Kirisaki Masamune and Kirisaki Nohana." Yamada spoke up.

The Kirisaki members gasped and suddenly were agitated.

"Nohana loved father! She would never kill him!" Takahiro shouted.

"Masamune-nii-chan always cared for father. He would nor have harmed father." The twins chorused.

"I am afraid they were pulling the wool over your eyes from a long time." Hikaru said simply.

"What do you mean?" Takahiro growled.

"They were working together to get your inheritance. It seems that Masamune-san and Nohana-san are swindlers. They married your family for money." Takaki said nonchalantly.

"No..." Takahiro looled devastated.

"Your proof?"

"Our team back in MPD went about inquiring about them for us. We found out that they were involved in such similar scams before." Yabu said as he cleaned his glasses.

"However, Soiichiro-San was changing his will for which you all also gave your consent." Yamada cocked an eyebrow.

"It was the least we could do to set right what we did wrong." Miho whispered.

"Eh?" Matsu was confused when Yamada sighed.

"Soiichiro-San had decided to leave 50% of his shares to Maino Sayo who is his illegitimate daughter from a maid." Yamada revealed.

The famiky nodded as Matsu was surprised.

"We knew about Sayo's identity after mother died. Our mother hated Sayo for no reason of hers. So we also agreed with father it was the right thing." Miho sniffed.

"But you were quick to accuse her." Matsu pointed when Takahiro gave a bitter laugh.

"Pardon us but this poor girl was ill treated by us all. We felt it was natural." Takahiro replies.

"But Masamune and Nohana were unhappy so they decided to murder Soiichiro-San and make sure the will was not declared. Only they never knew it was already executed." Yabu shrugged.

"But when?  Did the video camera show that the door opened on its own?" Aoi asked.

"About that, after a lot of scrutiny we found this. As you can see,  A hand is in slightly in view aa it opens the door. Since it a revolving camera, the culprits made use of its blind spots and entered. But as it was only for 2-5 seconds...The gloves were caught." Keito explained.
