It's The Hard Knock Life

It's The Hard Knock Life is a case featured in Criminal Case as the fifteenth of the game. It is the third set in the Bloom Prairie district of New Cresthill.

Plot
After two murder investigations, one immediately after the other, Mona and the player went to Bloom Prairie Adoption Agency to catch 'The Holy Spirit', whose real identity was its head, Annabel Hungtinton. Nevertheless, they couldn't arrest her because she was found with her head bashed in.

Foster kid, Emily Wallis, economist, Frederic Spades, and florist, Evonne Moore were considered suspects. Apart from them, the duo discovered a creepy doll with a message from Annabel, who knew that they were going to arrest her so she planned to commit suicide. Before the doll got self-destructed, it also revealed that 'The Hunt of Cocoons' was assigned to someone else. Later on, because of the tiredness, Mona felt asleep in the common room.

In order to let Mona rest, Abaddon offered to replace her for the rest of the investigation. Animator Vincent Silverberg and Childhood and Innocence's supporter, Luigi Koys were also added to the suspects' list. Soon, they found out that Emily broke several alcohol bottles from Annabel's cabinet because she was making the foster kids' lives insufferable, treating them almost like slaves, and that Evonne was disgusted about Annabel's alcoholism, wishing her death so the government could hire a new head, more capable for the adoption agency. At the end of the chapter, Mrs. Moore asked the duo to search Emily since she ran away with all her stuff.
