The detectives exited Mew's room together. Just then Galtomor jumped out to greet them at the large hall.
"Oh, hey Galtomor." said Klancy.
"Oh, so you guys were in there? Anyways, our team just cracked open Tenma's computer at the inspection room and we were checking the stuff in it. Not a whole lot related to this case. But we did find something interesting. Someone has been tampering with the computer from 20:40 to 23:30." reported Galtomor confidently.
"Are you sure it's not some sort of an automatic program?" asked Klancy.
"It's not, I got this info by running a program that checks what input has been entered into the pc and when. At 20:40 the pc was booted and ever since then someone has been inputting commands from the keyboard and the mouse till 23:20. They have been attempting to breach the security of a folder that has been heavily locked.” said Galtomor musingly.
He then added "Our team is currently trying to unlock that folder. And in all honesty it seems pretty hard. I would love to help them but frankly I'm clueless."
"Huh, I guess we need a computer expert on this case huh." said Klancy while rubbing his forehead with his hand.
"Yeah." said Galtomor.
Sounds of footsteps came from the staircase below and soon Joey showed up."
"Guys, the other suspects have arrived." said Joey frantically.
"Right, let's get to work then." said Klancy.
The five detectives went downstairs. They met 5 new faces at the main hall.
"Alright, mind introducing yourselves to us?" asked Klancy.
"Oh, of course, I am George Keem. The victim's friend. And this is my son, Joseph." said a brown haired middle aged man, who had a fancy shirt and green trousers.
George waved his hand towards a spiky haired young adult.
"Yo" said Joseph, the spiky haired boy.
"Jack Don." said the man in black robe.

"Mikhail Mill." said a yellow haired middle aged man.
"Nile Nelson. Nice to meet you." said a middle aged person with dark skin tone.
"Let's not waste time further. We'll get your alibis." said Salim.

Klancy nodded and quickly the detectives dispersed into each room with one of the suspects.
**********
Klancy was the one to get Jack's alibi inside the recroom.
"Start from the day of the murder, moment you arrived at the victim's mansion." said Klancy.
Jack began expositing with a calm manner.
11 AM- I entered the mansion garage with my car. I got out to greet Joseph and George then I quickly left the garage."
12 PM- I was headed towards the bathroom. I hope they would excuse my misbehaviour. But strangely enough, I saw Tenma and the female servant Yumiko at hallway 1A together. They seemed to be hugging. I quickly went away so as to not disturb them."
"Wait, they were hugging you say? Are you sure about what you saw?" asked Klancy.
"Yes, they were definitely hugging. I think they even pecked too" said Jack.
"Hmm, anything else to note?" asked Klancy.
"Not really. I left them to their personal business." said Jack awkwardly.
"Continue your alibi then."
"I entered the hallway of doors. There were nice paintings all around the walls of that hallway so I observed. Then Mikhail entered the hallway as well."
13 PM- After I took a break for the bathroom Mikhail and I entered the recroom and together we played billiard.
15 PM- We got tired so we switched to playing cards there.
17 PM- Mew entered the recroom and told us to go to the dining hall for dinner. We both went there."
18 PM- Jude, Yumiko went and brought the family cups. They also came with Marian. Everyone finished their food and started laughing and talking about various subjects.
Jude and Yumiko took all the plates, pots away to probably wash them. Joseph left the room and immediately afterwards Hori, Mew, Marian also left.
George asked Tenma to give his test tubes to George and Tenma agreed.
19 PM- George brought a trolley to the main hall. Afterwards, Tenma, George, Succi, Nile, me and Mikhail all went upstairs, entered the lab and brought down the chemicals onto the trolley.
Then the six of us decided to go to the recroom to play some billiard pool. Nile opened up his phone and messaged someone then put his phone back into his pocket. Tenma left the room."
20 PM- We continued to play. Succi ended up winning the game. Mikhail and George were tired of playing so they went to the dining hall. Soon Nile went out as well. Succi and I continued to play. But the game got a little stale after a while.
21 PM- Succi and I watched a movie on the tv that was in the recroom."
23 PM - The movie finished. We chatted a while after that. Then we moved to the main hall. Nile, George, Mikhail, Reiner were there. Nile and George told us about how Reiner accused them and questioned them for a missing knife. Realizing the implications, I was furious."
Soon we all decided to leave this place. I went into my car and drove out of the mansion."
“That seems like a decent enough testimony." said Klancy.
"Thank you." said Jack with a smirk.
