"What do you mean by that?" Another one of the aunties asked.
"I don't trust the rest of you so I'm only going to consult with the two of them," Gustav explained his intentions.
"What sort of joke are you making?" Uncle Bila voiced out.
"It is no joke... You are all suspects," Gustav said while walking forward calmly.
"Watch your tone your lad... Don't make senseless accusations," Uncle Rony voiced out as well."Okay... You are all suspects," Gustav repeated the same statement causing most of them to show looks of annoyance and discontent.
"Uncles, aunts, let's all relax. There's no reason to get riled up, just let him do his job," Stark stated while trying to make the tense atmosphere calm a little.
"Officer Crimson, we've prepared a good accommodation within the household for you," Madam Lilian voiced out with a smile.
"Juli, please show officer Crimson to his room," She added while gesturing at her daughter who had just arrived with Stark a while ago.
Juli nodded and asked Gustav to follow her.
"I'll settle in for now and begin investigations a little later... Don't mind my presence in this house, I could be anywhere at any time," Gustav said as he walked away with Juli.
"Will he have access to everywhere?" Uncle Bila asked."So long as he is in this household and working on the issue, then yes," Madam Lilian answered.
"And I don't want to hear any complaints from any one of you," She added before anyone could voice out their complaints.
Uncle Bila and a few others had looks of dissatisfaction on their faces but after hearing that, they kept quiet.
"I don't have any issues with that... Anyways mum, uncles, aunts, see y'all later I gotta go," Stark stated before walking away.
"We still have things to discuss!" Madam Lilian yelled out but Stark had already zoomed out of the vault room.
She shook her head and let out a frustrated sigh before gesturing for the others to follow her back to the living room.
Gustav walked along a wide corridor that led towards the far east of the household. They were currently one floor up as Juli led him towards the room that was prepared for him.
Juli was truly a beautiful brown-skinned lady with a voluptuous rear view and attractive bearing.
She walked by Gustav's side with her hands joined together in front of her.
"I hope you enjoy your stay here," She said with a smile.
"I'm not here to enjoy my stay. I'm here to work," Gustav responded bluntly without a change in expression.
"Pfft I guess what they say about you is true," She said with a light chuckle.
"Hmm?" Gustav mumbled.
"I know you're here to work but you could loosen up a bit... Life is more fun when you're being less grumpy," Juli said with a gentle tone.
"What do you know about having a fun life, you can't even leave your own house without supervision... Talk more of this island you all have isolated yourselves away in," Gustav voiced out with an uncaring tone, causing Juli's face to stifle up a bit.
"Ouch... Well, I guess you are kinda right... I am mentioning having a fun life when my life is the way it is but you have to understand that there's nothing I can do to change this. The Vertigon family has always been like this," Juli said with a wry smile.
"Sure, thanks for the concern I'll loosen up when I get the job done," Gustav stated as they arrived at the end of the corridor.
Juli smiled at his response not offended by what he had just said. Mysonite City was mostly cut off from the rest of the world and the Vertigon family did not like to really get involved in worldly matters unless the MBO or the world government needed their help.
The family was not only powerful in resources but they also had two Alpha ranked Mixedbloods from their family as well as hundreds of mixedbloods within the Kilo to Delta rank. They were practically a powerful private army and considering how strong a lineage bloodline is, it was no doubt that they could truly take on almost any situation.
No one would dare to attack Mysonite City, both Mixedblood terrorists or any form of adversity since everyone knew just how much of a strong collective force they were.
Despite being below the Kilo rank Gustav was sent here because the current situation wasn't one that only required strength. Besides the main family was trying to keep the situation under the wraps so they wouldn't want others to be involved.
Juli came to know of Gustav through Stark who was always invested in the outside world situations. He followed the rise of Gustav from the MBO test phases down to the Burning Sands issue.
Amongst the three sisters, Juli was the closest to him so he would open up about how he wanted to meet Gustav one day and maybe team up with him to fight bad guys or something.
"Here's your room, it automatically gives you access so there's no need for any keycard," Juli said as they arrived in front of the last room at the end of the corridor.
Just as Juli mentioned, the moment Gustav stood in front of the door, it slid open for him.
"My room is at the other end... It's the second door by the left. Don't hesitate to reach out if you need any help," She said with a gentle tone that somewhat reminded Gustav of Angy.
"I will, thank you," Gustav said before walking into his room.
He was still surprised that she wasn't pissed after everything he said. He had mentioned all of them were suspects and even threw her off when she said he should loosen up a bit.
Yet she didn't seem angry or treat him with contempt after all that.
Gustav looked around the room he had just gotten into. It was practically a house of its own.
There was a small living room space with sofas and a holographic screen that was displaying some cartoons.
The room corner also had a massive holographic screen and calming dim lights.
A king-sized bed and so many decorations with artistic figures on the walls. This was way more luxurious than the penthouse the MBO rented for him, during his stay in Burning Sands City.

'Good, there are no monitoring devices,' He said Internally as he deactivated God Eyes.
Gustav didn't really care about the luxuriousness of this place. He just moved towards the bed and took a seat on it.
In his head, he replayed everything that had happened upon his arrival here in Mysonite City.
Gustav noted the actions, replies, and attitudes of every single family member as he replayed the scenes in his head.
