Chapter 22: Suspicion on Agnes

After conversing with the woman, identified as Aurora Campbell, Jane departed from the house alongside Addison, her expression grave. Her assistant queried, "Why do you think Agnes lied about where she has been living?"

"Because she's hiding something," Jane replied, her lips pressed into a tight line. "We should again go to the club and inquire. Now that we know her name isn't in the census register and she doesn't reside here, someone else in there might have more information."

Addison nodded in agreement. During the carriage ride, he speculated, "Maybe she's the mastermind behind all of this?"

"We cannot be certain at this point. It would have been simpler if the fingerprints matched, but she's become one of the prime suspects," Jane stated.

Upon their return to the Midnight Club, the guard at the gate informed them, "The club isn't open now, miss."
