You call this a black hand?

????????The head of the Felix family, Gray, is a very serious and cold-looking middle-aged man with a rather calm temperament. His gray hair makes him look very vicissitudes of life. When he is sitting there leaning on a cane,

, the whole person is like a university professor.

Mellen had met him before when he was in Graham City. Although he looked at him differently for some reasons at that time, he still regarded him as a junior like his son Kevin.

?????????But now, after seeing Meren appear in the principal's office, this man stood up politely and nodded to him, a strange emotion flashed across his angular face.

????????It’s not entirely because of Melen’s current status as heir that he is so polite.

????????In fact, there are too many people in the wizarding world who have risen and fallen. If there is no long-term existence of a family behind them, it will actually be the same.

?????????It's just that Melen is different from others. He has been engaged to an "illegitimate daughter" and is unclear about Mrs. Chelsea. No matter what aspect, Gray cannot ignore it. Of course,

It needs to be treated with caution.

????????But what surprised him was that after Mellen walked in, Browning, the principal, also stood up from his chair.

????????Although there is no further expression, this attitude is not in line with Gray's understanding of both parties...

???????"It is okay to launch an investigation, but it must be done cautiously."

Seeing that Mellen didn't mean to speak for a while after saying hello, Principal Browning sat back on the chair and looked at Gray.

"If there are no traps behind the suspicion that can be easily seen through, it proves that the enemy is confident and has no fear of us finding any clues."

"I will consider hiring Detective Swinburne to lead this investigation."

?????????Gray responded in a deep voice, the remaining politeness on his face because he had just met Mellen immediately disappeared, and his words contained anger.

"If you want to use this kind of thing to provoke a dispute between Felix and Lesomore, even if the person behind it is not afraid of being discovered by us, he must bear a strong price!"

"Since you have made up your mind, I will instruct the people below to cooperate with you."

????????Principal Browning said steadily: "As long as you don't affect the order of the school."

?????????Gray agreed.

????????After saluting to express his gratitude, he looked at Mellen, who was silently listening to the conversation between the two.

?????????"I heard that the heir can use the geographical advantage to screen suspicious people in the school?"

?????????"This ability is very expensive."

Before Mellen could speak, Principal Browning spoke for him, "Besides, Egg's studies are very heavy and he is not suitable for participating in this kind of action."

"Even if you only provide some minor help, the Felix family will be grateful."

????????Gray looked at Mellen without giving up and said: "Of course we will shoulder the cost issue."

???????? His expression was very firm, as if he had to ask Mellen to take action.

Browning frowned when he saw this, and then looked at Mellen.

?????????"What do you think, Egg?"

"I think I should first understand what you are talking about."

Mellen responded with a shrug.

????????It’s not that he really doesn’t understand, it’s probably the trouble related to Kevin, but Mellen hasn’t paid much attention to this matter, so for the current conversation between the two

The details are naturally not very clear.

?????????"I think you have heard about Kevin."

Before Principal Browning could speak, Gray, who was sitting on the chair next to Mellen, spoke up, "But you may not know that it is not easy for the seriously injured Lambert to recover.

"

????????I actually know it very well.

Mellen thought to himself, Juliana told him immediately that something was wrong.

????????But facing the ex-husband in front of him, of course it was impossible for him to tell the truth, so he could only nodded silently.

?????????"Normally speaking, Lambert's injury shouldn't have been so serious."

??????? Gray said in a deep voice: "Kevin is not a temperamental person. In this school, even if he is provoked and takes action, he will not be able to kill him."

???????Mellen nodded again after hearing this.

????????He still believed this, because in his impression, that little yellow-haired boy was not completely a playboy. In some aspects, his temperament could even be said to be pretty good.

"It is doubtful that Lambert was seriously injured, but what is more serious is that after the incident, someone blackmailed Kevin to do something on the condition that Lambert's injury be restored."

????????"What's up?"

?????????"Tell me about the illegitimate daughter."

????????When he said this, Gray stared at Mellen, as if he wanted to carefully see his reaction.

????????But after hearing this, Mellen just said oh and said nothing.

???????This actually made Gray, who had a tense face, a little confused.

???????? Because Mrs. Chelsea claimed to have killed the illegitimate daughter, but the fiancé in front of her, why didn’t she show any sadness at all?

???????? Could it be that he is a person with a cold nature?

Or are you unwilling to show your concern for your illegitimate daughter in front of yourself in order to avoid angering yourself?

"I came to Fort St. Grant this time just to find out everything behind this."

The suspicion in his heart did not affect Gray's words, "I don't intend to pursue the illegitimate daughter. But who is using Kevin behind the scenes must be found out."

???????Having been cuckolded, of course he couldn't just let it go, but considering the relationship with the Blackmore family, it was not appropriate to make this matter a big deal.

????????And there is no way to make it big, after all, it is a scandal, and the main person involved has been killed by Mrs. Chelsea.

?????????So even if he wants to pursue it, Gray will only pursue his ex-wife Juliana.

????????As for Mellen in front of him, even if he does not consider the identity of his heir, he still has to consider the entanglement between Mrs. Chelsea and him.

????????So when he saw Melen, even though he was a little annoyed with Wu Jiwu, Gray really never thought about taking his anger out on him.

????????However, what surprised him was that after he said these words, Melen still just nodded without any change in his expression.

????????As the fiancé of an illegitimate daughter, is this man really indifferent to everything about his illegitimate daughter?

???????A feeling of contempt arose inexplicably in his heart, but on the surface, he spoke again, hoping that Mellen could provide some help in this investigation.

???????Mellen was actually a little curious about some of the secrets behind this matter, and with the Felix family leading the way, he didn't need to do anything more, just to provide assistance, so he

Didn't refuse.

???????But I didn’t say I agreed, I just mentioned that I would consider it.

????????Of course, even if you really agree later, you still have to be paid.

????????But after all, Juliana’s opinion should be asked first on this matter, so before that, Melen didn’t plan to say anything more.

????????The two parties then added friends and talked in detail after mentioning it. Then Gray left with satisfaction, while Mellen turned his attention to Principal Browning.

????????There is a question that actually confuses him, but it is impossible for ordinary people to know about it.

???????Now that he had just met Gray, he could not help but be curious even more.

?????????"Why does Kevin look nothing like his mother?"

Mellen asked.
