Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 307 A Witness & The Culprit

Angzen was uncomfortable with everyone's stares. And coupled with the few whispering words he heard, his entire body turned red with rage.

You say he hadn't given his parents a single Vyn since he left? You say he didn't care for them all these years?

Angzen didn't need the police to know his dear sister started these rumors.

'Good... Good... All these years, you have been treating me like a fool!!'

At first, he decided that even if he were to teach his sister a lesson, he would still give her a way out.

But now, he changed his mind.

Thinking of what was to come, Angzen unclenched his fist, calming himself.

By the end of today, all the rumors would vanish. So what does it matter what these villagers think now?

"Teacher Angzen... Trouble you to find a secure witness." Chan-ki reminded.

And almost immediately, Angzen turned to the crowd, who were pretending to do all sorts of tasks.

That is, who the hell wipes down the few street light posts around?

And you... Why are you mopping the main roads?

Fine! If they wanted to watch the show, couldn't they find better ways of disguising their acts?

Some also entered the neighbor's yards and properties, pretending to like for a visit, asking if they needed help with some chores.

It was the first time he had seen a person mopping the lawn.

,m '...'

.

'Keep calm... Keep calm...'

Angzen was chanting his own calming scriptures in his heart, looking at the pretentious passerbys.

"Aunt Mai..."

"Hey! Is that you, little Angzen? Aiyahh~... I almost didn't recognize you there."

"..."

"Little Angzen, you sure have grown. Now, you're indeed a big man! But little Angzen, why haven't you been around all these years? Your parents... Your parents missed you dearly!"

Angzen almost tripled his eyes, seeing her fake crying.

She who hated his mother more than life itself is now weeping so pitifully, as though they were best friends?

For the sake of his mission, Angzen had no choice but to play along.

"I know... Aunt Mai... I know... But there's a good reason for it all. And that's exactly why I'm here. So can I trouble you to send someone to call the village chief over?"

Aunt Mai's heart jerked in curiosity.

What's going on? What's this all about?

"Yes. Yes. Yes, little Ang. Don't worry. I'll send someone to get him now! Even if he is in the stars above or on the tallest mountain, don't worry; we'll bring him over as fast!"

Aunt Mai couldn't resist the temptation for a good show and quickly sent one of her sons to make for the hills and find the village chief.

Of course, others also sent more boys to scatter towards the places the village chief was most likely to be in.

Even though he was a 'village chief,' the village was still government property. And there were things he had to look after, which also included projects on how to grow his rural community further.

The current village chief was the corner Village's chief's son, who took over barely 4 years ago.

Though the man was similar in age to Angzen, he was a leader that had proven himself worthy of the position.

That's why his father willingly stepped down into early retirement, taking care of their private farms and properties around the village.

.

Seeing many rush off to fund his witness, Angzen finally led Dorian and Chan-ki into his home.

Eh?

'My old key still works?' Angzen was taken aback.

What? His sister was so stingy that she couldn't even spare money to change the locks? Or was she confident that he would never come back again?

Chan-ki frowned, stepping into the somewhat dirty home.

From the markings, scratches on the wood, and many other clear signs, it's evident that this place is used regularly.

Yet, a high amount of dust swept and kept underneath the rush and furniture.

Everything had been done just for show, also revealing the nature of those who either owned this place or got tasked with keeping it clean.

Little habits like these revealed one's true character.

Seeing the state of the home, Chan-ki and Dorian chose to stand in wait.

At the moment, there was no one here. But with their arrival, it didn't take long for word to spread out fast.

.

"What??!!! Are you sure my brother is here?"

Feizen stood abruptly in disbelief with soapy hands.

She had been doing laundry in the backyard of her matrimonial home.

Honestly, she felt she was born to be lazy, never having to work a single day in her life.

And that's how she intended things to be. Too bad her husband's old woman was still alive and kicking, making sure she worked to keep the home clean.

Damn her mother-in-law!

The woman was always breathing fire down her throat, ordering her to cook, clean, and do other chores she never did growing up.

All the work was always left for her older brother!

Feizen felt uncomfortable, thinking of all the lies she had told him.

Many saw her pale face, thinking she was contemplating forgiving her white-eyed brother or not.

"Feifei... You don't have to be sad because of your brother's return. Even if he wants to drag properties with you, who doesn't know you cared for your parents more than he did? Don't worry; the whole village will stand behind you!"

Many encouraged, not knowing Feizen was worried about other matters instead.

'No! No! No!... If the villagers pound on that fool, he might tear face with me completely. Then if that's the case, how can I make him send me money the way he did before?'

Dammit!

Feizen gritted her teeth furiously.

That was her money bag!!!

Like so, Feizen quickly headed to her parent's house, coming up with plans on how to keep her brother in the dark and send him away fast.

She could lie on this matter for a day or 2. But after a while, the truth would definitely get revealed.

So how could she allow this to happen?

'No! I have to keep everything under control. That brother of mine has always been stupid. So it shouldn't be hard to manipulate him for a while longer... And besides, didn't they say he was now stinking rich?!'

.

Like so, it didn't take long for the culprit and the chosen witness to appear.

Dorian raised his brow, looking at the few incoming guests.

Good.

The early they began, the faster they could end this and head back on their way.

Today, they had to go back and prepare for the Academy's opening!

Dorian smirked.

Finally... The big day was upon them.
