"But why should the suspicions fall on Munan, sounds like they're all equally guilty."

Mubai explained with a low growl, "Probably not that bad, at most a suspension from duty. Of course, I don't think the culprit will stop at that."
"They aim to crush the Xi family in one fell swoop?" Xinghe questioned.
