Sylvia's POV:

"There are witnesses? It's such a remote place. How can there be witnesses?" I said, feeling surprised.

The old doctor handed the medicine to me and said, "Yes there are. One werewolf even swore that he saw Prince Rufus in his wolf form kill the boy."

If there were really witnesses, then everything would be a lot more complicated.

On my way looking for Rufus that night, I had passed by the crime scene near the swamp. But at that time, I didn't see any dead bodies. So whoever that witness was, his testimony was very suspicious. "What was that witness doing? Why was he in such a remote place?" I continued asking the old doctor about the witness, trying to get more information about his identity.

"Many hunters live in the suburb, so it's not surprising that someone happened to pass by there when Prince Rufus killed the boy," said the old doctor.

"Well, that makes sense. Spring is coming, so it's a good season for hunting," I said with a smile. I had to agree with him so as not to arouse his suspicion. Then I asked casually, "But it was such a coincidence wasn't it? Do you know where he lives?"

"That's what I don't know. All I only know is that he has been taken away by the soldiers of the palace for investigation. I heard that he was left scared silly and kept talking nonsense."

I pondered for a while before I asked, "Where is the child's body now? I want to go there and offer my condolences to the bereaved family."
