  To those who abuse: the sin is yours, the crime is yours, and the shame is yours. To those who protect the perpetrators: blaming the victims only masks the evil within, making you as guilty as those who abuse. Stand up for the innocent or go down with the rest.

  Lillian Michaels smiled at Jeremy and sat beside yomi. &quot;I know you guys are surprised to see me here but, I'm here to help. To make things right and to bring the guilty to justice.&quot;Lillian told her what her motives were 
  &quot;Can you stop speaking in parables and tell us what you came here for?&quot;James shouted. 
  The justice all turned their heads to face him. &quot;Calm down James, let hear what she had to say,&quot; Mary said. 
  &quot;I know you!&quot;Lillian pointed at James and ex

  Daniel Hamilton and two out of the feathers drove their exotic cars into the circle street. 
  The circle street or the circle community as the people living there called it, is a slum area. A place where the poor live. A place that had been neglected by the government for years. A place that had been cast out of langose and it was the location chosen by the feathers for their project. 
  The people living in the circle community were surprised when they saw cars entering the community. The people living in the community were not even up to fifty but their lifestyle was not poor beyond possible imagination. 
  Daniel Hamilton And the feathers came out of their different cars and walked to where the people had gathered. &quot;Who are you and what do you want?&quot;An old dwarf man who st

  The address of Sola's family that was given to Jeremy by Kemisola turns out to be an old bungalow house. The area looks deserted and only the trees and the bungalow were in the area. There was a sense of abandonment to the building. 
  Jeremy and Yomi walked to the front of the bungalow and knocked on the wooden door.
  At first, nobody answered but then he knocked again. 
  &quot;Are you sure this is the right address?&quot;Jeremy asked. 
  &quot;This is the address because we are in truth avenue. &quot;Yomi replied. 
  Jeremy raised his hand to knock again but before he could, the door opened and an old man who looks to be around seventy years cleared his throat to gain their attention. 
  &quot;Who are you? And what are you doing on my property?&quot;The old man asked in a threatening voice. 
  Jeremy remove his firm card from his suit pocket and raised it to show the old man but, yomi slapped his hand away. 
  &quot;We come in peace. We're friends with sola before she died, &quot;Yomi told the old man but, the old man gave him a suspicious look. 
  &quot;You were friends with sola?&quot;The old man asked them and they both nodded. 
  &quot;Come inside. Any friend of sola is my child, &quot;the man invited them into the house. 
  The inside of the house looks old and abandoned. The green paint on the wall peeled and flaked as though the house had a disease of the skin. The boards of the floor look neglected like it hasn't been cleaned for years. Webs from spiders adorned every corner of the living room.
  Jeremy and yomi had to cover their mouth and nose due to the nauseating smell that was coming out from the couches in the living room. 
  &quot;will you both take water?&quot; the old man offered. 
  Jeremy and Yomi looked at each other and shook their heads. 
  &quot;No thanks,&quot; they both said at the same time. 
  &quot;Lillian, Adeola. Some friends of sola are here,&quot; the old man called. 
  Two women came out of a room that's was opposite the living room. One was an old woman who wore a tattered blue gown while the other was a young lady who look to be around 20 years of age.? 
  &quot;Who are you guys? Sola doesn't have any friends.&quot; the older woman yelled. 
  &quot;Um, um, we are..... &quot;Jeremy stuttered not knowing what to say. 
  The old woman walked to him and slapped him on the face. She pulled him up by the collar of his suit. 
  &quot;How dare you come here and tell us lies? Sola had no friends. You were sent by that evil old man who killed my daughter!&quot;The old woman cried. 
  Yomi get in between them and freed Jeremy from the woman's grip.
  &quot;We were not sent by any man. We came here because we needed your help. Someone else is suffering for the crime she didn't commit and only you could help.&quot;
  &quot;Leave my house now!! Leave!!!!&quot;The old woman yelled and rushed to attack Jeremy but the younger woman pulled her back. 
  &quot;That's enough mother. That's enough&quot;the younger woman pat her on her back. &quot;Please leave, you are not welcome here.&quot; the young woman said to them. 
  The old man didn't say or do anything, instead, he sat on one of the couches watching the scenario in front of him. 
  &quot;Let's leave now Jeremy&quot; Yomi whispered to Jeremy. 
  Jeremy breathe heavily and watched the family. The father looked unhappy and depressed while the mother resemble a lunatic with her tangled hair. Only the daughter looks alright but, there was a sad expression on her face. 
  &quot;Thank you for gracing our presence. In case you want to help, here is my card.&quot; he pointed it to their daughter. The young woman looked at Jeremy before collecting the paper from him. 
  &quot;Take care. Please don't let an innocent person suffer in prison.&quot;Jeremy begged. 
  Jeremy and Yomi bow and left the house. When they got out, Jeremy shouted and punched the wall. Blood trail down his hand as he punched the wall. As he raised his hand to punch the wall again, yomi bought his hand down and pulled him away from the wall. 
  &quot;That's enough Jeremy&quot;
  &quot;It's not enough Yomi,&quot; Jeremy shouted. &quot;Without new evidence, they won't reopen the case, &quot;he yelled. 
  &quot;Calm down, you never know what might happen later.&quot;
  &quot;Nothing is happening yomi. I'll? just fail Kemisola like I failed Linda like I failed my family.&quot;Jeremy lamented. 
  &quot;That's enough Jeremy! Stop blaming yourself for everything Jeremy. Stop it!!&quot;Yomi scolded. &quot;It's not your fault. We need to leave now.&quot;Yomi told him and pointed to where the car was parked. 
  Jeremy stared at the house again before walking away. What he didn't know was that someone was watching them in one of the windows of the bungalow.? 
  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?? *********
  &quot;Hello, good people of mecianda. I'm Mary Adeitan reporting from the lead station. The death of the state council of langose had come as a shock to the people of langose. Before the state council died, he talked about the feathers and how they were going to come after him. Are the feathers responsible for the death of the state council? The only way to find out is through a proper investigation by the police. But ever since Mr. Timothy Matthews's body was found dead in the sea, the police haven't done anything about it. Could the police and feathers be involved together? 
  Another shocking news is that the state langose family were involved in an accident. It was a great shock to the citizen that, the state council and his family all lost their lives some days after Timothy Matthews talked about the feathers. Sources from the scene of the accident informed us that, the wife is still alive but barely. We hope she survived. 
  Another news is involving the business strategy between the president and the ministers. They are..... &quot;
  Daniel turned off the TV in the meeting room of the feathers and shouted. 
  &quot;I hate this media a lot&quot; he yelled and threw the remote control of the TV across the meeting room.
  The feathers all stared at him like he had gone crazy. It was Alissa who broke the silence in the room. 
  &quot;Throwing the TV remote won't solve anything Daniel. The issue on the ground is very simple.&quot;
  &quot;How is this a simple Alissa? The news is talking about us. It's all over the country.&quot;Simone argued. 
  &quot;What's do you suggest we do Simone? Sit down and fold our hands while the media talk dirty about us.&quot;Alissa fired back. 
  &quot;Don't put words into my mouth, Alissa. You said it was simple and I'm letting you that it is not simple.&quot;Simone replied. 
  &quot;That's enough!!!&quot;Daniel yelled. &quot;That's enough! The argument isn't going to solve this matter. We have to find a way to get rid of what is on the ground.&quot;
  &quot;What's do you suggest we do?&quot;Alissa asked. 
  &quot;The usual, &quot;Daniel replied and began to give out orders to the feathers. &quot;Park, get rid of the media and all networks talking about this news. Simone gets rid of any result relating to his death and munachi?releases a statement?concerning the death of Timothy. Tell them it was a suicide or so.&quot;
  &quot;What's about the accident that occurs to their families? The media would love to talk about that.&quot;Leonard said. 
  &quot;The accident of the family was an unfortunate incident. We could tell them it was purely coincidental,&quot; park suggested. 
  &quot;That the stupidest idea I have ever heard.&quot;Alissa pointed out. 
  &quot;What do you suggest we do then?&quot;Park fired back. 
  &quot;Well, I'll suggest we ignore the news about the accident cause it's none of our business,&quot;Alissa suggested. 
  &quot;What do you have to say to this Daniel?&quot;munachi turned to face Daniel and asked him.?? 
  Daniel looked at the faces of all the feathers before he spoke up. &quot;Let's go with what Alissa said and. &quot;He paused and then continued. &quot;All I can think of right now is the project in front of us. We are all visiting the site of the project tomorrow.&quot;
  &quot;You mean the circle street?&quot;Simone asked and Daniel nodded in response. 
  &quot;Let's not allow useless news to stop us from achieving our project,&quot; Daniel told them. 
  ? ? ? ? ? ? **************
  Jeremy called a meeting with the justice the next day to explain what was going on with Kemisola's case. Meanwhile, Lara also came with a piece of information on Timothy's death.? 
  (Remember that justice is the name I made up for Jeremy and the rest of the crew.) 
  &quot;You mean they didn't give you any chance to talk to them?&quot;James asked after he heard the outcome of sola's family. 
  &quot;The family are suffering. The father doesn't look okay and the mother is worst. They both need proper care.&quot;Yomi told them. 
  &quot;What do we do now?&quot;Mary asked. 
  &quot;I have no idea. I mean we can't just sit down and let my sister suffer in prison.&quot;James said. 
  &quot;Your sister is not going to suffer in prison,&quot;Lara assured him. &quot;We have another problem at hand. This is the autopsy report of Timothy's death.&quot;Lara dropped the autopsy report on the table in the meeting room. 
  Yomi was the first to read the result. When he was done, he passed it to James who read through it. 
  &quot;He was poisoned?&quot;Mary asked as she read through the result. 
  &quot;Yeah. Timothy Matthew was poisoned by a poison that is unidentified and doesn't exist in the country.&quot;Lara explained to them.
  &quot;Damn! This could be related to Linda's case you know. she was also poisoned with the same poison. Right James?&quot;Mary turned to James and questioned him. 
  &quot;Yes, this poison is not identified. Even the forensic department couldn't identify the poison.&quot;James told them. 
  &quot;What's are we going to do now? The feathers are probably planning on how to cover up the cause of Timothy's death.&quot;Yomi said. 
  &quot;I would never allow that. We are the justice and we need to do something about this.&quot;Lara spoke up and tapped the table to gain their attention. 
  &quot;Jeremy, what is the next thing?&quot;Lara asked and they all turned to face him. 
  Jeremy sighed and looked into the faces of his Team. He knew they wanted him to say something that would help the present situation. He stood up from his seat and paced around the meeting room, thinking of what to say. 
  &quot;Guys!&quot; he called for their attention and they all shifted on their chairs to listen to what had to say. 
  &quot;Everything that's happening is getting more complicated. I have no idea what to do.&quot;Jeremy ruffled his hair and breathe in. 
  Lara stood up and walked to him. She grabs his hand and placed it on hers then, she spoke some words of encouragement to him. 
  &quot;Look Jeremy,? I know everything is getting more and more complicated but, This team can do anything if we work together. You put us together and I know you would lead us to the right path.&quot;
  &quot;You don't know that, &quot;Jeremy argued. 
  &quot;I've seen it, Jeremy. You are a good person. You stood by me when my family died. You are trying to help the people get justice and that's what makes you the person you are.&quot;Lara encouraged. 
  &quot;But I failed Linda and now I'm about to fail Kemi. I promised her that I? was going to get her out but, how I'm I supposed to do that when I have no evidence yet.&quot;
  Mary stood up and also walked to Jeremy. She placed a hand on his shoulder and rub it gently. 
  &quot;Lara is right. You are a good person. Don't give up because of some difficulties.&quot;
  &quot;Thanks, guys. &quot;Jeremy said them. 
  Lara and Mary smiled and went back to their seats. 
  &quot;Mary, &quot;Jeremy faced Mary and gave her an order. &quot;You'll post the result of Timothy's death online before something else is released.&quot;
  &quot;Alright,&quot;Mary replied. 
  &quot; Yomi and I already paid a visit to the family of the dead girl but they are refusing to cooperate. We just have to try again&quot; Jeremy informed them. 
  &quot;There is no need for that.&quot;Lisa interrupted the conversation and walked in with a young lady who was wearing an all-black outfit.
  She removed her sunglasses and smiled at Jeremy. &quot;Hello, attorney Jeremy. I'm Lillian. You probably know me by now because you saw me when you came to our house. I'm here to see you concerning my sister's death. I have some evidence I'll like to share with you.&quot;The young lady informed and took a vacant chair beside yomi.
