Chapter 321: Between Life And Investigation
A third figure, an aloof official, crouched next to the corpse, his dark brown eyes inspecting the body closely, hie dark brown hair a bit roughed up, just like his questionable life choices.
His bandaged arms were visible under his sleeves, though his overall posture suggested a disinterest that bordered on disdain. He wore a black suit that contrasted sharply with his pale skin and sharp features.
His voice broke the silence as he stood up, letting out a soft sigh of amusement.
"Well, well, what have we here?" The man mumbled as he eyed Marcus Rayner's lifeless body.
"Doesn't look like he had a lot of fun in his life. Not sure he even knew what a woman's touch was, if you ask me."
The blue-haired woman, her name Brielle, snapped her gaze from her tablet to the bandaged man. "Seth, don't be an ass," she growled, her voice sharp with annoyance. "Show some respect for the dead."
Seth, unfazed, gave a nonchalant shrug as he straightened up, bandaged arms hanging loosely at his sides. "Respect for the dead? I thought we were trying to figure out how he died, Brielle. What's more important, the facts or some silly sentiment?"
He gave the body one last scrutinizing glance before sighing dramatically.
