On the one hand,
Porthas seem to be right.
but it is necessary to make an allowance for the fact that the MC is an introvert, not particularly familiar with external life. in a way, he's an otaku. and he, unlike the MC from the RHC, does not even have a living friend Alex, who would come to his house and would get him with kicks. MC is unfamiliar with real life. his whole real life is home-school-home-school if I correctly understood the beginning of the story.
plus such a moment - they are trying to blackmail the family on a piquant topic. the son and mother have not yet really come to their senses after what happened, and for good and they should be taken "warm" for further circulation, until they change their minds, have time to sort things out in the brain and begin to think soberly about what happened to them. in principle, the blackmailer did the right thing.
that's just one thing, but it worries me: a blackmailer for a young man is too experienced.
if you remember, the house was robbed by two young men. it is unlikely that they were more than 30. even 20 if they are, it is very doubtful.
I'm still annoyed by the fact that father left for work and the house was robbed. perhaps someone from his father's job is behind all this (but what motives?)
Another suspect is Victoria's husband. the motives are also not clear, but he is trying to give money ... maybe it’s my spoiled imagination that is playing and I myself am spoiled - but I see this as an attempt to become a sort of kind family friend in order to corruption of the female part of the family,
as in "big brother - another story" where a mother's friend, having first corrupted the mother herself, began corrupting her daughters.
further attempts to give money will be a characteristic sign of the possible correctness of my version.
it's like a bad cop - a good cop - a bad cop, and so on until the end succumbs. how metal is heated and cooled - and thus the MC of Alfred Bester's novel "Tiger! Tiger! Tiger" broke the safe out of the spaceship.
plus the blackmailer called After that aunt's husband trying to give money.
that is, "if it doesn't work out well, then let's start on the bad side."
+PS: you ask, why the hell am I slandering my aunt's husband? but I didn't like him. his mug is not to my liking. I can't help myself.
I would have liked it more if this aunt's husband could have been put behind bars for blackmail and the aunt herself taken into the family of MC - the more girls in the harem, the merrier the harem. right?
+PPS: if the aunt's husband is so proud that he has "money - chickens do not peck!" then he could hire a detective and he would find those scoundrels that robbed the family. I think correctly?
maybe start a poll? who is behind the blackmail? =)
and then compare it with the author's version ... when the author makes sure that the blackmailer is still found (after all, I hope the author will not rewrite the script (?), even knowing that the "public" has already guessed everything, and knows approximately who is the scoundrel who pressed the button and sent the whole family into incest debauchery)
