Chapter 7: Haunted Hotel part 1

~Isabella's POV~

It was at the beginning of Summer break, my ankle is a lot better and I was at the SPR office when I heard the door open. I got up and went to go greet someone who just walked in when I saw mother. I came to her and hugged her. I was so happy to see her and started making tea.

"What brings you here? Is it because of your kids or asking for help solving who murdered father," I asked.

"Both. I missed both my kids so much," She said.

"We missed you so much too mother. Let me go get Lin," I said as I set the tray down.

I went to Lin's office and knocked. Lin let me in and I told him that our mother was here. He came out of his office and came over and hugged her. I smiled and Lin smiled as well. So me and Lin listened to our mother talk for a bit when Noll came back from a small date with Mai. When Noll and Mai noticed the women and Noll greeted our mother (her name is Sally). Sally greeted Noll and she looked at Mai.

"Mother this is Mai, in our last case we discovered that she is a sensitive psychic," I said.

"It's nice to meet you Mai," Sally said.

"It's nice to meet you too ma'am," Mai said.

"So I have a case for you guys to take," Sally said.

"Is it about the hotel father went to with uncle," I said.

She nodded and Noll agreed to take the case. My mother smiled and said that we have to leave first thing tomorrow morning. I went to Call the others and asked them to come to the office fast. They agreed and came over to the office to meet Sally Koujo. I smiled as I talked to her before informing the others about the case.

"So you're saying that we're picking up the case of Isabella's and Lin's late father's case in China," Monk said.

"Yes and you'll be rewarded in finding who killed my late husband," Sally said.

"Wait you're Sally Koujo, current leader of the Koujo clan," Ayako said.

"Yes. Once you come to the Koujo clan house hold, You'll have to set base in an empty room," Sally said.

They nodded and soon we went home to get ready. Mai was excited to see what China is and she heard stories from me and Lin. She knew the rough status between Japan and China. Soon it was time to leave. The SPR team left that night, so they could be there before the morning. Sally Koujo came with us, she allowed the team to stay in the clan house hold.

I looked around and knew nothing had changed since I left about a couple months ago. I noticed my uncle watching from afar. I knew he is plotting something. So I told Sally, my mother, something about the uncle and she nodded.
