118: The elder's death case [pt2]
Amane entered the room Elder Hana had died in. Sakura had already left back for her room. The room had been cleaned up of blood but had otherwise been kept in a pristine shape.
Other Elders gathered inside the room and their faces were varying degrees of white after thinking of Elder Hana's death.
"S-She was so young. Elder Hana was only shy of 89 this year. She had so many more years to live. So why did she die like this? Why?"
Elder Hana's sister cried as she beat her chest to relieve the pain she felt at her sister's death.
Around her, most people kept quiet and mourned the dead Elder Hana.
"Elder Hana died because it was her time to go. Crying around like this would only exhaust you. So please go in and rest for some time. I will carry on the investigation from here on."
Elder Hao placed his hand on Elder Hana's sister's shoulder. It was a gesture to comfort the crying female.
