"Mrs.Roger, May I ask you some questions?" Sky asked politely but she had no emotions on her face.
Sky didn't want to interrogate but Sam and others made her ask as there were recording as a statement.
Mrs.Roger nodded. Sky could see traces of tears on her face and hesitated to speak when Sam spoke which heard on her earpiece.
"Sky! Ask!"
'I'm not heartless.' Sky couldn't make her mind when she heard the kid ask his mother, 'Will she get my DaDa back?'
"Sky! They are a victim too of this incident. If you tell them Mr.Roger is no more, you can't get any information and can't get them justice either."
Sam's voice sounded again. Sky took a deep breath and spoke.
"Mrs.Roger, On and before Sunday, Did you hear your husband say anything which you found unreasonable or surprising?... It can be anything like sudden changes. Too much happiness or too much sadness or worrisome."
"Take your time and think." Her tone was relaxing and soothing.
Sky loosed her clutch on her dress hem after finishing saying it. Mrs.Roger shook her head continuously by avoiding eye contact with Sky.
"MaMa! wasn't DaDa saying he will get us so much money that I don't have to eat medicines daily." then the boy turned to Sky, "Dada was very happy. He even told me that he will get me big chocolate."
Sky looked at Mrs.Roger before speaking in a gentle voice, "Do you like chocolates so much?"
The boy nodded numerous times before speaking excitedly, "Very much. Like, this... much."
He spread his hands wide to show how much he liked. Sky managed a faint smile and asked the captain to send the kid out to talk to his mother. The captain carried out the instruction and returned back soon.
"Why is your son taking medicines?... Why were you trying to stop him from saying?" Her tone wasn't gentle anymore. Even though she felt sorrow for them, she didn't miss to notice the changes in the woman's face when she heard money.
Sky banged on the table as she grunted, "Speak!"
That sound scared the woman and she started crying, "I told him not to accept the job but he still did it to get money for Charlie's treatment. I told him not to go with those rich men. I... I... what happened to my husband? Did he get caught?... What did you..."
She tried to pounce on Sky which the captain stopped easily and two men entered the room scaring she might hurt Sky.
Deputy chief Ma ordered to handcuff the woman who started yelling.
"...What did you do to him? Did you guys kill him?... He is innocent. Catch those dirty men..." Then that woman again started weeping, "... My husband just wanted to save our son. Leave him, let him go."
There were only sounds of weeping when she stopped speaking.
Sky asked everyone out before asking the captain. "Didn't you guys interrogate her? It seems like she knows a few things."
Deputy Chief Ma spoke, "She was only repeating she doesn't know anything and get her husband."
Even they were surprised to know how she spoke up just by looking at Sky and hearing her few words.
Sky saw the woman from one way see-through glass who was still weeping. Arlo asked to send a policewoman for getting the statement as her mental state was low and he stood with Sky calming her as they heard the statement.

On Thursday, Mr.Roger was early back home after work. seeing his worried face, his wife asked to know but he didn't speak and changed to a fresh set of clothes.
Two luxury cars stopped in front of their house. She saw her husband arguing with men who were in expensive suits.
She just heard tits and bits of words like 'First money' 'Risky' 'Treatment' 'Security' 'Save'
She wanted to ask but her husband hopped on the car and left. That day was the first time, he reached home at dawn time. He didn't tell anything even when she asked.
On Sunday, she heard him talking with Charlie that he would be getting lots of money which would soon stop him from taking lots of bitter medication and they would live happily as he would start working in Apollo electronics Ltd.
Even though the boy didn't understand much, he asked gingerly, "DaDa, will you get me chocolate too?"
"Oh! A Big... Like... This big chocolate." Mr.Roger spread his hands in the air to indicate he would get big chocolate.
Charlie was very happy who left happily bidding him and play with other kids. Mrs.Roger stopped her husband and asked to which he replied.
"A small work to which I will get money for Charlie's treatment and we will live a better life."
She wasn't dumb to think that he would be doing legal work for such a huge amount.
"Small work and millions of money?" She held his collar, "You are not taking the wrong route, are you?"
He calmly released her grip from his shirt, "Our son is important, nothing else."
The woman tried her all, yelled, cried, threatened to stop him from leaving but he left and never came back.

Then Policewoman asked a few more questions, Mrs.Roger identified President Tan and President Derek's picture but not President Wright. She identified their assistants too.
Then the Policewoman told her about Mr.Roger and showed her the video where he fired and got hurt to himself. Mrs.Roger cries echoed in the interrogation room.
Her child had cancer and they needed money which made Mr.Roger take the job from President Tan and President Derek.
Sam who got on to work easily found the evidence from Mr.Roger's workplace and near their road by the next day. After knowing the name, Sam and the team used Roger's bank account, phone number, workplace and other places for evidence.
Initially, they were using the only track in one way. After knowing the identity of the intruder it became little ease.
Sky mood naturally dampened hearing Mrs.Roger. When Arlo tried to comfort her, she just gave a faint smile before going near Charlie who was eating chocolate.
