Lily left and got ready to go to Hanna's place. [ @majus We can just skip Lilly's day at Hanna's place. I don't want Tjf to have to wait around.]
Val, as she sought through the mess in her sister's room, found nothing of interest. She returned to her room and sat down, alone in home, wondering what she would do now.
Two hours of constant exercises left the young man tired. He took a shower and walked into the kitchen to make himself a meal, only to meet his mother preparing it.
As Lily arrived at the place, she found Hanna greeting her. "Hey!" She said, but she didn't look too cheerful. "Come in." her friend invited her inside.
Mikael looks at Sigrid, thinking. Once the test run works on Victoria, you're mine. "Oh, hey mum. I didn't think you'd be home." He pours himself some water. "How was work?"
Alma? Wait... Mikael hides his concern. "Uh, Alma? Yeah. She's one of the rich girls at school. Good looking and popular, but a pretty nefarious bully. Can't say I'm much of a fan. Why?"
Sigrid grimaced, but there was some relief in her features. "She was found dead yesterday." She answered. "Keep it to yourself."
"Oh... Sorry to hear that." What the fuck? Did I-, no. The spell did nothing when I cast it on her, so she must have been dead already. "I won't tell anyone. I know how to keep my mouth shut." He stands behind Sigrid. "A homicide case must be really stressful for you, mum. Why don't I help you relax a little bit?" His strong hands move to her shoulders, rubbing the tense and sore muscles.
"Yes, it is. Thanks." She sights with content as her son started massaging her shoulders. "Tell me more about Alma." She asked.
His fingers dig deep, working away the knots caused by stressful work, and bringing her a hazy sense of satisfaction. "I don't really know much about Alma, we didn't hang out. Her best friend is-, was this other girl called Victoria. Lilly and I ran into Victoria this morning in the park." He frowns. "Actually, now that I think about it, Victoria seemed really carefree for someone whose friend had just gone missing." He shrugs, continuing his ministrations. "I don't know, you're the cop, not me, but it seemed a little suspicious." Mikael takes off his mother's jacket, so his fingers can have a greater effect. "Alma and Victoria bully the nerds at school, sometimes really hard. I hear her latest victim is this Japanese transfer student called Kotaro."
His mother frowned at the latest comments. "And the academy's faculty does nothing to stop them?" She sighed as another of her knots was untied. "Did she have any other enemies?"
One test is good, but two are even better. Valerie decided as she set about making a second love charm, this one intended to make Ines fall in love with her.
"They're from rich families, and the two of them are good at making sure that they aren't seen, and that their victims don't tell, for fear of reprisal. I'm sure that some of the teachers know, but they have no way of proving it." He presses hard, hands going lower on her back. "You're so tense, mum. We should do this more often." There's a crack as he relieves a particularly sore knot. "In terms of other enemies, I don't know. Like I said, I stay away from people like that, and make sure that Lily does as well."
Now that she knew how to cast the spell, it took her far shorter to prepare the second charm. With it prepared, she only needed the place to prepare it.
"Maybe I will take you up on the offer." The MILF answered as she got up with a satisfied sight. "Maybe I should start with this Kotaro and Victoria first." She wondered.
Hanna winced as she closed the doors behind Lilly. "It's Felix. He has some sort of mental breakdown." She said uncertainly. "I think."
"Feel free to ask, whenever you want." He smiles at her. "As for Kotaro, I don't know him well, but he doesn't seem like the killer type. Victoria, on the other hand, well... Who knows?"
Hmm... Maybe I can just invite her to visit me and have her find the charm here? That should work, right? Let's see, do I have her phone number? searching through her contacts.
