L shook her head vigorously. "No! I can't let Danny Swann kill my family and not get the consequences. If I can't kill him, I'll take all his money and make him dirt poor before sending him to prison ..."

"Uhm .. it's not Danny Swann ..." London said. He grabbed L's hand and put it on his lap. "But, your guess is not entirely wrong."

"Is it not Danny Swann? Then ... who is it? Who killed my family??"
