Suspects who were typically cowardly or guilt–ridden would be overcome with so much fear that they’d give up all the details the moment they saw Brandon’s stole face. 

But Hera remained calm and composed she parted her lips long enough to spit out a few words, 

“Why don’t you tell me? 

Queenie was displeased at Hera’s calm attitude. To her, Hera was just a country bumpkin. She had no one to help her out, so by right, she shouldn’t be calm at all. Brandon didn’t expect to see such a young girl looking so composed despite being in the police station. She didn’t look frightened in the slightest, either

“This is a severe assault and battery case! Her needs to take legal responsibility no matter what! Resolving this dispute in private is a no–go this time! The legal route is the only way to settle this case!” Brandon added while tapping on the photos.
