Under the protection of my twin brother

Chapter 9

Since Tod and Sarah had begun their investigation, the atmosphere in the house had become unbearably tense. The twins felt that their every move was being watched closely, and they had no doubt that Harvey Morgan and Evelyn were watching them. Harvey was coming to the Radrigies ' house more and more often, and each visit was accompanied by a heavy sense of threat. Tod could see the way Morgan was looking at Sarah — there was something predatory in those eyes that made him clench his fists in rage and want to protect his sister.

Harvey, for his part, was beginning to realize that the twins were not going to back down and that their investigation could pose a serious threat to his plans. He decided to take action to stop them before the situation got out of hand. Morgan was a calculating, cold-blooded man who was used to solving problems in radical ways, and now he was seriously considering how to neutralize the threat posed by Tod and Sarah.

One evening, as Sarah was sitting in the living room poring over documents that might be related to her father's case, Harvey came into the room. His gaze was cold and hard, and his movements were sharp and confident.

"I see you're keen on your investigation," he said, stopping in front of her. — Don't you think it might be dangerous?"

Sarah looked up at him defiantly.

— I have a right to know what happened to my father. And I won't stop until I know the truth.

Harvey grinned.

— You're too naive to think you can solve this mystery. You have no idea what forces you're dealing with.

Tod, who had been hiding in the shadows until now, stepped forward.

— Don't threaten my sister. We know you're involved, and we'll get to the bottom of it.

Morgan turned slowly to Todd.

— You think you can intimidate me?" I'm warning you: stop before it's too late. You and your sister could be seriously hurt.

Tod answered firmly.

— We won't stop. You and Evelyn are the prime suspects, and we will prove your guilt.

After this conversation, the tension in the house reached a climax. Harvey realized that the twins would not back down, and began to develop a plan to eliminate the threat they posed. He contacted several of his acquaintances in criminal circles to discuss possible options for action. Morgan knew that he had to be careful not to attract the attention of the police, but at the same time determined to stop the investigation.

Meanwhile, Tod and Sarah continued to collect evidence and analyze the information they received. They knew that Harvey was a serious threat, but they were ready to face any challenges for the sake of the truth. The twins decided to take extra precautions and not leave Sarah alone, especially when Harvey was in the house.

Emily Wilson also actively assisted them by gathering information and analyzing data. She felt that the situation was becoming increasingly dangerous, and tried to support Sarah and Tod in their endeavor. Emily knew they were walking on very thin ice, but her friendship with Sarah made her take risks.

Evelyn, meanwhile, was trying to convince Harvey that the twins could be controlled if they were handled wisely. She suggested using psychological techniques to intimidate Tod and Sarah into giving up the investigation. But Morgan was more radical and didn't trust the twins ' stepmother completely. He saw her as a cunning and calculating woman who would betray him at the first opportunity.

Tod and Sarah tried not to show their fears, but inside they knew they were facing dangerous people. They discussed their concerns with Daniel Harper, who advised them to be extremely careful and not risk their lives. The detective offered them several ways to protect themselves, including installing a surveillance system in the house and contacting the police, but the twins were afraid that the authorities would not take them seriously or become involved in a conspiracy.

Every day brought new discoveries and new dangers. Tod and Sarah were finding more and more evidence that Evelyn and Harvey were involved in their father's death, but they were also increasingly aware that these people would stop at nothing to cover up their crimes.

The twins decided to reach out to some of their father's acquaintances who could share important information. They began to carefully gather information about Richard's business dealings and possible conflicts that could lead to his death. Tod and Sarah knew they still had a lot of work to do, but they were determined to go all the way, no matter what the risks.

Meanwhile, Harvey and Evelyn worked out their own plans, trying to anticipate the twins ' every move. Their confrontation was gaining momentum, and no one knew who would emerge victorious from this dangerous game. Tod and Sarah sensed that the denouement was approaching, and they needed to solve all the secrets before their opponents struck a decisive blow.

But for now, they continued to follow the plan, hoping that their efforts would not be in vain and that the truth would eventually come to light. The twins and their allies still faced many challenges, but they were prepared for them, because they were united by a common goal and unwavering determination.

More and more, Sarah wondered how far they might go in their investigation, and what the consequences might be for everyone involved. Tod tried to support his sister, assuring them that they could overcome any difficulties and protect each other.

Each new step in the investigation brought new discoveries, but also new questions. Tod and Sarah knew that they still had a lot of work to do to solve the mystery of their father's death, but they were determined to go all the way.

Despite the growing tension and danger, the twins did not lose hope. They believed that the truth would eventually prevail, and they would be able to protect themselves and their family from those who wished them harm. But so far, the path to the truth was long and thorny, and no one knew what challenges lay ahead.

Tod often thought about how to protect Sarah in the event of an open conflict, and discussed it with Daniel Harper. The detective offered various options on how to ensure the girl's safety without attracting too much attention. Tod listened carefully and memorized all the advice, because his sister's life was more important to him than anything else.

Sarah, in turn, tried to support her brother and friend by sharing her thoughts and suggestions. She knew their investigation could be dangerous, but she was willing to take risks for the truth and the future of her family.

So Tod and Sarah moved forward step by step, despite all the obstacles and dangers. They knew that the road to the truth would be long and difficult, but they were prepared for this challenge, because there was too much at stake.

The atmosphere in the house was becoming increasingly tense. Evelyn was increasingly at odds with the twins, and Harvey Morgan was beginning to show open hostility. Tod and Sarah sensed that the denouement was approaching, and they needed to solve all the secrets before the enemy struck a decisive blow.

But for now, they continued to follow the plan, hoping that their efforts would not be in vain and that the truth would eventually come to light. The twins and their allies still faced many challenges, but they were prepared for them, because they were united by a common goal and unwavering determination.

Michael Stone was an experienced detective known for his insight and ability to solve even the most complex cases. His reputation in police circles was impeccable, and many considered him one of the best detectives in the city. When word of Richard Radrigies ' mysterious death reached him, he decided to take up the investigation, even though the case had not yet been officially handed over to him.

Stone began by studying the available materials: medical reports, witness statements, police reports. He carefully analyzed every detail, trying to figure out what might have caused Richard's death. From the very beginning, the detective sensed that there were many oddities and inconsistencies in this case.

Michael soon learned that Tod and Sarah had started their own investigation. He decided to meet with the twins to find out their version of events and see if they could be useful for his work. The meeting took place in a small cafe near the Radrigies ' house. Tod and Sarah were initially suspicious of Stone, but after he demonstrated his authority and expressed a sincere interest in solving the case, they decided to share with him the evidence they had collected and their observations.

The twins told the detective about their suspicions about Evelyn and Harvey Morgan, described the strange events that took place in the house, and shared information received from Lisa Morgan and Emily Wilson. Michael listened intently, asked clarifying questions, and made notes in his notebook.

After meeting the twins, Stone decided to take a closer look at Richard Radrigies ' surroundings. He started with the deceased's business associates and competitors, hoping to find clues that would help him understand the murder's motive. The detective quickly found out that Richard was involved in several controversial transactions and had conflicts with some representatives of the business environment. However, it was not yet clear if this could have caused his death.

In parallel, Michael continued to follow Evelyn and Harvey Morgan. He hired several private investigators to keep an eye on the twins ' stepmother and her alleged accomplice. Early reports indicated that both men were acting suspiciously: they often met in secret, made strange calls, and tried to avoid unnecessary contact with others.

Stone also decided to talk to Margaret Taylor, the twins ' old babysitter, who lived nearby and occasionally visited them. Margaret was reserved and cautious, but under the pressure of convincing arguments and gentle treatment of the detective, she still agreed to share her memories of the Radrigies family. She talked about some of Evelyn's strange behavior, the strained relationship between her stepmother and the twins, and how much Richard loved his children.

With each passing day, Michael became more and more convinced that Richard's death was not an accident, but a carefully planned crime. He compared the facts, analyzed the behavior of suspects and tried to understand who could benefit from the death of a businessman. The detective felt that the key to the solution was somewhere near, but he could not yet grasp the main thread of the investigation.

Meanwhile, Tod and Sarah continued to collect evidence and share it with Stone. They knew that an experienced detective could see things that would escape their eyes, so they were careful not to withhold any information. The twins also kept an eye on Evelyn and Harvey, trying to anticipate their next moves.

Evelyn and Harvey, meanwhile, were feeling a growing sense of pressure. They understood that the investigation was gaining momentum, and began to take additional precautions. The twins ' stepmother tried to limit her contacts and avoid situations that might betray her involvement in the crime. Harvey began to look for ways to eliminate the main witnesses — Tod and Sarah.

The atmosphere in the Radrigies ' house was becoming increasingly tense. Evelyn increasingly came into conflict with the twins, and Harvey Morgan openly showed his displeasure with their actions. Tod and Sarah sensed that the denouement was approaching, and they needed to solve all the secrets before the enemy struck a decisive blow.

Michael Stone, meanwhile, continued to work methodically on the case. He knew that he was facing tricky and dangerous opponents, but he was ready for any challenge to discover the truth. The detective knew that the truth was close at hand, and he had to find it before it was too late.

Each new day brought new discoveries and new questions. Michael became more and more immersed in the dark world of intrigue and betrayal that lurked behind the facade of the prosperous Radrigies family. He knew it would be a long and difficult task, but he was determined to see it through.

Tod and Sarah didn't give up hope either. They believed that together with Michael Stone, they could solve the mystery of their father's death and punish those responsible. The twins knew that the path to the truth would be long and thorny, but they were prepared for this challenge, because there was too much at stake.

Despite the growing tension and danger, Tod and Sarah didn't give up. They continued to gather evidence, analyze the information they received, and share their findings with Michael. The twins knew that only by joining forces would they be able to stand up to Evelyn's cunning and Harvey Morgan's ruthlessness.

At the same time, Harvey and Evelyn were not idle. They developed new plans, trying to anticipate each step of their opponents. Their confrontation was gaining momentum, and no one knew who would emerge victorious from this dangerous game.

Tod was increasingly thinking about how to protect Sarah in the event of an open conflict. He discussed this with Michael Stone, and the detective gave him valuable advice on how to keep his sister safe. Tod listened carefully and memorized all the recommendations, because Sarah's life was more important to him than anything else.

Sarah, in turn, tried to support her brother and friend by sharing her thoughts and suggestions. She knew their investigation could be dangerous, but she was willing to take risks for the truth and the future of her family.

So Tod, Sarah, and Michael Stone moved forward step by step, despite all the obstacles and dangers. They knew that the road to truth would be long and difficult, but they were prepared for this challenge, because they were united by a common goal and unwavering determination.

The atmosphere in the city was becoming increasingly anxious. Rumors of Richard Radrigies ' mysterious death spread with incredible speed, and each new day brought new gossip and speculation. Tod, Sarah, and Michael knew they needed to act quickly before the public attention faded and the perpetrators had time to cover their tracks.

But for now, they continued to follow the plan, hoping that their efforts would not be in vain and that the truth would eventually come to light. The twins and their allies still faced many challenges, but they were prepared for them, because they were united by a common goal and unwavering determination.

With each new discovery, they became more and more aware that they were facing powerful and dangerous enemies, but this only strengthened their resolve to go all the way. Tod and Sarah knew that the memory of their father and the safety of their family were worth risking everything. And Michael Stone knew this could be the toughest case of his career, but he was ready for the challenge.

Time passed, and each day brought them closer to either a solution or a new danger. Tod, Sarah, and Michael continued their investigation, not knowing what lay ahead, but firmly believing that the truth would prevail.
