[img]https://i.imgur.com/VXwyd1A.png[/img] Theo: Oh, I already know what destroyed my family...It was the Kresniks. [img]https://i.imgur.com/xIQpo6f.png[/img] Rayla: Right...Your family was the first casuality of that war... [img]https://i.imgur.com/m1HGmer.png[/img] Theo: Still, now that Auror mentioned Azura, I do think there is something I should ask her about...My sister. [img]https://i.imgur.com/6Ijrflq.png[/img] Rayla: Eh? You had a sister Ted? I mean, Theo. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ltZbbwY.png[/img] Theo: Yes...She wasn't found her body in the debris of my home, so I hoped that she somehow escaped like I did. [img]https://i.imgur.com/9isX3qL.png[/img] Theo: Well...if even Azura can't find my sister...Then I guess I should just give up on her huh? [img]https://i.imgur.com/7sDYE3J.png[/img] Kaori: I'm sure she has the answer. Have some faith in her. [img]https://i.imgur.com/m1HGmer.png[/img] Theo: ...I sure hope so... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Lct36sL.png[/img] Kaori: Hey, if you'd like, I want to visit Azura to make you company. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ltZbbwY.png[/img] Theo: I don't mind...You don't really need to go but I guess I won't stop you... [img]https://i.imgur.com/KA0HYSQ.png[/img] Andorina: Hmmm... [img]https://i.imgur.com/oaDEhag.png[/img] Kaori: W-What's with the glare Andorina? [img]https://i.imgur.com/y0vK2uL.png[/img] Andorina: Nothing. Nothing at all.

[img]https://i.imgur.com/Q7OU21i.png[/img] Tiane: Well...Actually...Did any of your have some sort of dream you can't forget about no matter how hard you try? Specially a terrible one you had recently? [img]https://i.imgur.com/FOHXD1a.png[/img] Rayla: (So she's bringing that up...) You already know I did. [img]https://i.imgur.com/GJdn8Aa.png[/img] Theo: Eh? You guys don't mean... [img]https://i.imgur.com/580pZ1z.png[/img] Kaori: No way...you two as well? Theo and Kaori told the group about their lucid dream, then Rayla and Tatianna did the same. [img]https://i.imgur.com/4ezMnNf.png[/img] Reeta: Yikes...You four had it rough... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Bec4xAF.png[/img] Rayla: Four people...possibly more having a dream about their inner struggles crushing us down...This can't be a coincidence. [img]https://i.imgur.com/dF7pIRI.png[/img] Tiane: Now justimagine everyone having terrible nightmares like this... [img]https://i.imgur.com/vf0a9U0.png[/img] Kaori: Every waking morning would be hell...I doubt many people would like the pressure. Just think about it gives me the chills... [img]https://i.imgur.com/7qg6nEE.png[/img] Theo: Marina, we're counting on you to find out more about how we can stop this oncoming calamity...

[img]https://i.imgur.com/NQjBKKq.png[/img] Nicholas: There they are, [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xbpx3ec.png[/img] Nadia: These guys are the first deliquents I've managed to report. They haven't done any other offense since, but they still talk with the other lowlifes frequently, so they might have something fresh for us. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ouVnlY8.png[/img] Mina: (If they still hang around with the other delinquents, I wonder if they even learned their lesson...) In that case, we should get started... [img]https://i.imgur.com/OW5BiOE.png[/img] Nadia: I'll go first... *ahem* ... Hey guys, it's been a while. Delinquents: !!! [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xbpx3ec.png[/img] Nadia: I'm sure you guys remember me so... Deliquent 1: Oh shit, It's that hall monitor girl that got us in trouble. [img]https://i.imgur.com/YzvSYfC.png[/img] Nadia: Yes, that's me...anyway... Deliquent 2: Do you think that she found out about that? [img]https://i.imgur.com/sbkiinC.png[/img] Mina: That? Delinquent 3: Oh no, I'm not going to detention again... Delinquent 4: Me neither...let's break her apart. Delinquent 5: You'll pay for what happened last time. [img]https://i.imgur.com/x0K8ULH.png[/img] Nicholas: What are they even talking about? [img]https://i.imgur.com/GTMRns1.png[/img] Mina: I'm sure it's not related to what we were going to ask...Anyway, do you want some help Nadia? [img]https://i.imgur.com/aWJIQ7D.png[/img] Nadia: Mostly because it will help end this faster. [img]https://i.imgur.com/qdyOIZJ.png[/img] Mina: Heh, Better make sure you can make that boast count! [img]https://i.imgur.com/egDng39.png[/img] Nadia: I knew it was a dangerous job...I made sure to show that I'm qualified for it. [img]https://i.imgur.com/SauHwyU.png[/img] Hyde: These two sure are fired up...I'm sitting this one out. [img]https://i.imgur.com/vIslRww.png[/img] Nicholas: Same here...let's ask other students if they didn't see anything unusual... [img]https://i.imgur.com/5DtIgFd.png[/img] Nadia: You guys do that. Things might get ugly for the weak of the heart! Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cQURi7PDpmA]Outlaw Lullaby Kiwami 2[/url] Both girls lifted their fists up, waiting for the delinquents to attack first. Delinquent 1: We won't hesitate just because you're girls. [img]https://i.imgur.com/OQVpkH2.png[/img] Mina: I'll hesitate just because you guys are tiny bugs. I have to make sure you guys won't get crushed so easily. Delinquent 2: WHY YOU... Mina dodged the incoming angry attack, [url=https://youtu.be/Holnjmw4t8Y?t=6m12s]grabbed the man from behind and threw him at his friend with ease.[/url] The impact hurt them quite a bit that they struggled to get up, but Mina kept them pinned on the ground. Meanwhile, Nadia managed to make the third delinquent trip, getting him fall to the ground, then, she dodged an attack from the fourth one, used her coat to blind her attacker and push him to a wall with a strong kick, retrieving her coat back when his head collided with the wall, making him fall on the ground thanks to the dizzyness. Delinquent 5: Fool, I'm still here! He managed to grab Nadia from behind, when he readied himself to slam her on the ground, she quickly freed herself by elbowing his head, [url=https://youtu.be/Bo0-1UvwXpU?t=10m33s]locking his arm into a brief hold, enough to cause a good amount of pain on his shoulder that made him recoil, then, she threw him to the ground.[/url] [img]https://i.imgur.com/5oEpqFo.png[/img] Mina: Wow, you're stronger than you look. Are you perhaps a Heat User? [img]https://i.imgur.com/6Xh9ItN.png[/img] Nadia: I guess I am...I want to say the same to your skills, but your strenght is obvious because you're an Ancestor Mage. Delinquent 4: The hell? A freaking mage was fighting us? Delinquent 3: Ancestor what? Delinquent 1: It means we never had a chance... [img]https://i.imgur.com/3DuxuqK.png[/img] Nadia: Now then...Are you guys willing to confess or do I have to take you all to Miss Kata once more? Delinquent 2: No please...Alright we'll talk...It was us that swapped all the chemicals in the science lab today. Delinquent 5: We swear we won't do it anymore... [img]https://i.imgur.com/WpwSlnB.png[/img] Nadia: Thanks for your cooperation. I didn't exactly come here to ask you guys about that. We didn't even get a complaint filed yet, but I should give the heads up to the teachers anyway. Delinquent 1: The hell? [img]https://i.imgur.com/dO5l4on.png[/img] Nadia: Yep, you guys were actually going to get away with it had you not been so paranoid. Delinquent 4: I can't believe this... [img]https://i.imgur.com/3UuDfy3.png[/img] Nadia: Now then...about that thing I wanted to ask you guys about... Meanwhile, back with Hyde and Nicholas, they've been asking other students about anything out of the ordinary, but so far, they didn't get anything. [img]https://i.imgur.com/n2I3WJx.png[/img] Hyde: They are all clueless. [img]https://i.imgur.com/rLsTbj5.png[/img] Nicholas: No surprise there...If I was a spy, I would act as natural as possible. He probably has a persona that he uses in this school to fool other people. [img]https://i.imgur.com/GY8vvxd.png[/img] Hyde: His acting must be very good...The problem now is finding out who this spy is. [img]https://i.imgur.com/NQjBKKq.png[/img] Nicholas: I wonder if the others are having better luck. [img]https://i.imgur.com/jNhkCuL.png[/img] ???: Nicky!!! Over here!

Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3uLQakX0V64]Self-Delusion Picture Show[/url] Nicholas turned around and saw a girl walking in his direction while waving at him with a big smile. [img]https://i.imgur.com/6r9Ku0X.png[/img] Nicholas: Hey Zee, Good Morning. [img]https://i.imgur.com/yN6kJhb.png[/img] Hyde: Your classmate? [img]https://i.imgur.com/1dn84en.png[/img] Zeelena Dannia: That's right. The name's Zeelena. [img]https://i.imgur.com/GY8vvxd.png[/img] Hyde: I'm Hyde. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ZK8XmZH.png[/img] Zeelena: Nice to meet you. Are you friends with Nicky too? [img]https://i.imgur.com/WoULRn8.png[/img] Nicholas: That's right. Though we mostly talk if we end up meeting up on the streets. We do take the same route but we don't always meet. [img]https://i.imgur.com/TplKitj.png[/img] Zeelena: Really? Then I guess you decided to know him better today since you're together. [img]https://i.imgur.com/rLsTbj5.png[/img] Nicholas: Something like that. [img]https://i.imgur.com/QNGY8tF.png[/img] Zeelena: Cool! Can I hang around with you guys? [img]https://i.imgur.com/M5KZxPt.png[/img] Nicholas: Not today I'm afraid... [img]https://i.imgur.com/yOMn51G.png[/img] Zeelena: Eeeeh? Hyde, are you hogging my Nicky all to yourself or something? [img]https://i.imgur.com/iyPtLon.png[/img] Hyde: Is it bad? I mean, that's not it! Where did you get that idea? You're making it sound weird. [img]https://i.imgur.com/E9cthTp.png[/img] Nicholas: Oh right...Zee, have you seen anything out of the ordinary? Like, someone behaving differetly from the norm. [img]https://i.imgur.com/K2HCGeS.png[/img] Zeelena: Eh? Hmm...Let's see...Ah! [img]https://i.imgur.com/yN6kJhb.png[/img] Hyde: Found something out? [img]https://i.imgur.com/mmP5Qxt.png[/img] Zeelena: I did see that guy who keeps getting bullied...Tsuya I think...I saw him heading towards the upper floor before the chime to lunchtime played. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Sd1kcaJ.png[/img] Nicholas: What? Really? [img]https://i.imgur.com/RiGofJ3.png[/img] Zeelena: Yeah...I don't really know him but...isn't he supposed to be this super smart guy? It just seems odd that he left the 1st year floor to go to the 3rd year one. [img]https://i.imgur.com/dFjyre5.png[/img] Zeelena: Of course, at first I didn't think much of it and thought he was going to return soon...he did return to his class...right? [img]https://i.imgur.com/C0vwHz5.png[/img] Nicholas: That we don't know yet. Hey, maybe you can find him for us. Once you do, I promise to tell you what's happening...just not in front of everyone...they might panic. [img]https://i.imgur.com/YZv4iuO.png[/img] Zeelena: So it's something serious right? Okay, I'll go to the 3rd Year floor to search for him. Zeelena out! She went to the 3rd floor at a fast pace. The moment she left was when Nadia and Mina came back. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xsi7e6i.png[/img] Nadia: Hey guys, We're back. [img]https://i.imgur.com/5S04OjE.png[/img] Hyde: Any luck with those guys? [img]https://i.imgur.com/3WaSe3E.png[/img] Mina: Luckly, we did. They said that they saw someone named Vincent Carl, a student that supposedly received detention yesterday came to school today. [img]https://i.imgur.com/x0K8ULH.png[/img] Nicholas: Detention for what? [img]https://i.imgur.com/oiZux9o.png[/img] Nadia: He bullied Tsuya yesterday with other delinquents. He's the leader of a group of them. Seriously...The guy watching over the surveilance should've told us and we would've send him back home. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Wigpqg1.png[/img] Hyde: Doesn't the teachers know about this? Unless he skipped classes. [img]https://i.imgur.com/iFQAVOV.png[/img] Nadia: They do...which implies he hid on a blind spot somewhere. [img]https://i.imgur.com/OccEPM8.png[/img] Nicholas: This is suspicious indeed. [img]https://i.imgur.com/sbkiinC.png[/img] Mina: That's all we got for now. Our next task should be searching for him. [img]https://i.imgur.com/jvv1L83.png[/img] Nadia: Yup! I'm so excited we've got a lead. [img]https://i.imgur.com/hglkWj3.png[/img] Hyde: Oh, that's right, Zeelena saw Tsuya heading to the 3rd floor before lunchtime. [img]https://i.imgur.com/5oEpqFo.png[/img] Mina: (Isn't she this one cheerful girl that is infatuated with Nicholas?) [img]https://i.imgur.com/ce8LSvZ.png[/img] Nadia: Really? Is he still there? [img]https://i.imgur.com/NQjBKKq.png[/img] Nicholas: Zee went there to search for him. [img]https://i.imgur.com/jvv1L83.png[/img] Nadia: Seems like you trust your sweetheart enough to send her on an important task. [img]https://i.imgur.com/u1p1LfV.png[/img] Nicholas: What? You do know I did reject her confession right? [img]https://i.imgur.com/tAnC3uS.png[/img] Nadia: I don't know about that...You seem to enjoy her presence enough to call her Zee. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Sd1kcaJ.png[/img] Nicholas: The same way I enjoy the presence of any friend. Is that bad? [img]https://i.imgur.com/TARN4vk.png[/img] Nadia: Nope, it's not bad at all. Hehehe~! [img]https://i.imgur.com/aWJIQ7D.png[/img] Nadia: Anyway, back to the task at hand! A new path that will likely leads to the truth has opened. Let's march towards our answer! [img]https://i.imgur.com/3V5FjlE.png[/img] Nicholas: Like I said... [img]https://i.imgur.com/n2I3WJx.png[/img] Hyde: Just leave it be man...People will tease us the moment they think we're dating someone. [img]https://i.imgur.com/M5KZxPt.png[/img] Nicholas: Right...

Delinquent 1: Strange? Well, not really... Delinquent 2: Is this about the rumors of that guy that keeps getting bullied being a psychic user? [img]https://i.imgur.com/BF3furR.png[/img] Andressa: (I guess telling the truth right now is the best way to get an answer from them.) You guessed it. Delinquent 3: Yikes...It's a good thing we left that dud alone... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Y0iKEdd.png[/img] Andressa: It's not really true just so you guys know. It's really just to lure out a possible spy from the mysterious organization. Delinquent 1: Hmmm... [img]https://i.imgur.com/TkYyQmc.png[/img] Andressa: What? Did you remember something?

[img]https://i.imgur.com/Vyicl9b.png[/img] Kenzuki: There might be still a chance that someone still got the message with them. Let's split and ask around. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Y0iKEdd.png[/img] Andressa: Okay...Then I'll... [img]https://i.imgur.com/jL3MK6L.png[/img] Kenzuki: You're coming with me...You'll be way too nice with them. Mr.Bariand, you go with Drake. [img]https://i.imgur.com/mOBgfpn.png[/img] Barry: Understood. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ItpO033.png[/img] Andressa: Tch...Why with you of all people? [img]http://i1266.photobucket.com/albums/jj527/TheFael/Characters%20Faces/Drake%203.fw_zpsvr0ntj5e.png[/img] Drake: (So someone from the staff is helping the spy...I mean, it wouldn't make sense if he was working alone...But now we have to suspect a teacher as well?) [i][u]Kanzakai School - Gym Area: Exterior[/u][/i] [b][i]Team B[/i][/b] Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-kdPcivhVU]The Clandestine Dark Suits[/url] The group saw a lone girl under a tree, typing something in her laptop. Hinata slowly approached her and soon after, she was noticed. [img]https://i.imgur.com/6nUIgBv.png[/img] ???: Good day...What can I do for you? [img]https://i.imgur.com/LFVPtfv.png[/img] Hinata: Yoru Mizu, I'm here to talk about business. The girl lifts her head and sees the others behind Hinata. She closes her laptop and stands up. [img]https://i.imgur.com/UW5OFdj.png[/img] Yoru Mizu: Is this about that operation? Didn't knew you were going to be involved as well. [img]https://i.imgur.com/P5ISF4B.png[/img] Hinata: If you knew about the operation, then you should be helping too. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Yl4NHOM.png[/img] Yoru: Isn't that why you're here? To ask for my help? Just so you know, I won't be moving from this place, but maybe I can still help you with some useful tips. [img]https://i.imgur.com/D4DROUk.png[/img] Hinata: ...I guess that's okay by me. [img]https://i.imgur.com/znzkZpM.png[/img] Saika: So...did you really see something strange? [img]https://i.imgur.com/kJAGvsw.png[/img] Yoru: Nothing related to this mission. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ncH0Uex.png[/img] Ledi: Say what? But...aren't you a member of the intelligence as well? Surely, you got something. [img]https://i.imgur.com/s5LTMqh.png[/img] Yoru: Look Mr.Big, If even someone like me didn't find a thing, then maybe you're asking the wrong person. [img]https://i.imgur.com/jKZFBka.png[/img] Kenneth: She's got a point... (But when you make said point after saying that you'll help...it makes me wonder about her skills as an intelligence officer.) [img]https://i.imgur.com/P5ISF4B.png[/img] Hinata: C'mon...you got to have at least something... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Yl4NHOM.png[/img] Yoru: The school has been quiet since morning. Besides, if the cameras got something, then you wouldn't be needing me. [img]https://i.imgur.com/31I7KkN.png[/img] Ledi: Cameras...Wait... [img]https://i.imgur.com/4cdidWF.png[/img] Yoru: What is it Iron Giant? Did something ring your bells? [img]https://i.imgur.com/le2qPPu.png[/img] Ledi: Well...Actually, I was told the cameras went through maintenance and it only ended when lunchtime began. Sorry guys, I should've told you sooner... [img]https://i.imgur.com/6nUIgBv.png[/img] Yoru: Lovely...so this means the spy had a huge window to do whatever it wanted. [img]https://i.imgur.com/vFP7w7b.png[/img] Hinata: I doubt he got hold of such information. He would have to be working with someone from the staff to get said information. [img]https://i.imgur.com/GN9JQh7.png[/img] Yoru: DING DING DING! AND OUR CLUELESS HEROES MADE THE CORRECT ANSWER!!! Your prize is: That useful tip I've promised seconds ago! [img]https://i.imgur.com/dYSN7QF.png[/img] Saika: Excuse me? [img]https://i.imgur.com/JrZbE0H.png[/img] Yoru: The Sports Storage Room. That place has no cameras whatsoever, it's the dream of every boy to be locked in there with his love interest...and also the best place to hide something sinister. [img]https://i.imgur.com/JJDSHpM.png[/img] Ledi: The police was instructed to inspect every vehicle that entered the school. They came up with nothing. There's no way they could smuggle some- **music stops** Suddenly, Ledi was pinned on the ground by Yoru, feeling a knife right near his neck. [img]https://i.imgur.com/OnqGYnw.png[/img] Kenneth: What do you think you're doing? [img]https://i.imgur.com/s5LTMqh.png[/img] Yoru: Retract your claws Kid Dracula, I'm not going to behead this mass of muscles. You guys do know we're dealing with the mysterious organization right? You, "Vampire in da hood", can you tell everywhere how I got this knife out? [img]https://i.imgur.com/vzhhvIf.png[/img] Kenneth: ...You pulled it out of nowhere...I saw some kind of portal similar to the warp weapon system. [img]https://i.imgur.com/mqZ85un.png[/img] Yoru: Exactly! How convenient technology can be, isn't it? You can do many things, including crimes like smuggling. She stands up again, making the knife dissapear. Kenneth helped Ledi to get on his feet. **music resumes** [img]https://i.imgur.com/31I7KkN.png[/img] Ledi: Geez...That scared the heck out of poor me...why is she like this? [img]https://i.imgur.com/JttviNN.png[/img] Saika: We're not allowed to share that information with you... [img]https://i.imgur.com/8zVifE3.png[/img] Hinata: And it's better if you leave her be from now on. Pretend you still know her as a regular student. [img]https://i.imgur.com/6nUIgBv.png[/img] Yoru: What are you guys still doing here? I've already lent my time to you, I have stuff to do, now hush, get out of my property! [img]https://i.imgur.com/jKZFBka.png[/img] Kenneth: Right...thanks for your contribuition... They start heading towards the Sports Building, now being aware of how unpleseant she can get. [img]https://i.imgur.com/JJDSHpM.png[/img] Ledi: So that's her true self right? [img]https://i.imgur.com/Hfe2hWS.png[/img] Saika: Sadly...yes...I'm still questioning why she got hired by the Intelligence Office... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Q5S5qQh.png[/img] Hinata: Meanwhile, I've been imagining that she's dying to just break the quiet girl persona...she's always blunt and rude to everyone that knows who she truly is... [img]https://i.imgur.com/vzhhvIf.png[/img] Kenneth: Can you really not say why she is like that? [img]https://i.imgur.com/2ijo7DZ.png[/img] Saika: Not in public anyway...But let's forget this event happened and focus on the mission. [i][u]Kanzakai School - 1st Year Classrooms Area: Corridors[/u][/i] [b][i]Team D[/i][/b] Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hJUuV3oEC_8]Bettle Land (Day)[/url] They asked many students if they have seen anything unusual, but didn't get much. Then, they got a phone call from Renath. Hiagor enabled the speakerphone so that everyone could listen to his report. [img]https://i.imgur.com/mkUP2PN.png[/img] Renath: Sorry guys...I forgot to tell you that the surveilance system was on maitenance... [img]https://i.imgur.com/xDlggFV.png[/img] Hiagor: So the cameras were all off? Well, this would be a problem if someone got a hold of this information. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Fx2rmwZ.png[/img] Renath: Indeed...I've sent the locations of each camera to your e-mail Detective Hiagor...maybe that will still help somewhat. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Ulre3gW.png[/img] Hiagor: Thanks, I'll check these right now. [img]https://i.imgur.com/E8vTZvl.png[/img] Jane: What about Tsuya? Did you find him? [img]https://i.imgur.com/m80jYsA.png[/img] Renath: No...The cameras didn't get him in any corridor after they were back online. [img]https://i.imgur.com/LBQPzfe.png[/img] Jane: I see... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Hhep3Xb.png[/img] Renath: I'll keep watching the camera feed. You guys keep on investigating. [img]https://i.imgur.com/7v7LbaT.png[/img] Hiagor: Right...I would like to report that we didn't find anything yet. [img]https://i.imgur.com/evlv8Fx.png[/img] Renath: Let's keep trying! We shouldn't let that demoralize us. [img]https://i.imgur.com/EEJn9kQ.png[/img] Jane: You said it boss! [img]https://i.imgur.com/SqoshS5.png[/img] Renath: Alright, over and out. Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WYHy3VnZRp0]Core[/url] The phone call ended. Hiagor pulled a tablet and checked his email, seeing the map attached to a recent message. After downloading it, he opened all the four files in separate tabs, letting the others study the locations as well. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ftAN1mG.png[/img] Jane: I see...so the cameras on the school's building are mostly focused on the corridors. None of the rooms have any cameras. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ZxS2J5s.png[/img] Daniella: In comparison, the school's exterior feels like some maximum security prison. There's only some obstacles for blind spots, but they won't do much. I doubt even an internation spy like Sublimation Reptile would infiltrate this place. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Xa0QsoN.png[/img] Hiagor: Who's that? [img]https://i.imgur.com/a9C7h7f.png[/img] Daniella: He's from a book I've read once. He's a famous master of stealth. [img]https://i.imgur.com/rnxvG1h.png[/img] Hiagor: I feel like I've heard about someone similar before. [img]https://i.imgur.com/4tPgImT.png[/img] Daniella: I thought you liked books detective. [img]https://i.imgur.com/7v7LbaT.png[/img] Hiagor: I've read mostly didactic books. I'm more of a film person in regards of fiction. [img]https://i.imgur.com/CfxFQNW.png[/img] Daniella: I see...Anyway, you got my analogy right? So, the only time the spy would ever be able to do anything is during this large period where the cameres were inactive...Assuming he knew this happened. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Lz0fjr5.png[/img] Jane: The let's assume the worst right now and say that not only he knew the cameras were out of comission, but he also knew the location of each one. That would require someone from the staff to give him this information. Let's also assume he got it the same way Detective Hiagor did, it would be way safer, as the spy wouldn't risk being seen together with his accomplice. [img]https://i.imgur.com/Ulre3gW.png[/img] Hiagor: (She seems to be on to something.) [img]https://i.imgur.com/ftAN1mG.png[/img] Jane: Now if I was the spy, I would use that time to watch over Tsuya, see where he goes. Staying on the corridors would be an impossibility as a school staff would just send him back to his class. [img]https://i.imgur.com/rnxvG1h.png[/img] Hiagor: But what if we assume the worst and think that the spy is on the same class as Tsuya? [img]https://i.imgur.com/Y7eJosv.png[/img] Jane: I don't know...the chances are microscopic at best...Let's avoid this route for now. [img]https://i.imgur.com/1m6mCEf.png[/img] Hiagor: (She shoot down my random guess really fast. While this isn't enough to say that she has talent, I'm still liking what I see.) [img]https://i.imgur.com/QnRYAz6.png[/img] Daniella: (Then how about this?) Maybe there's be one spy per classroom? [img]https://i.imgur.com/ftAN1mG.png[/img] Jane: I doubt they have that many. I feel like this case, the less people the better, so maybe there's one spy per floor...I believe that would be more reasonable. Anyway, continue with your reasoning Miss Katy, we'll go through this probability later. [img]https://i.imgur.com/D6DxMwb.png[/img] Daniella: Very well. (My feeble ship has sunk as well.) [img]https://i.imgur.com/AMSAVQh.png[/img] Jane: Okay. What if the spy stayed outside? Let's check the map for a moment. Hiagor showed the map of the exterior, Jane located the place where her classroom stayed, then pointed towards some bushes. [img]https://i.imgur.com/OSXOuIY.png[/img] Jane: Here, I think the spy could've used this place to stay hidden from the students and the staff. [img]https://i.imgur.com/CfxFQNW.png[/img] Daniella: Wait, you did say Tsuya left the classroom some minutes before lunch right? The spy wouldn't be able to see where he went. I guess it would make more sense if his assistant was there instead and alerted the spy to any movement. [img]https://i.imgur.com/cFfvPp8.png[/img] Jane: Yeah, that would make more sense. Let's go with that. [img]https://i.imgur.com/ltYvHWs.png[/img] Italo: I don't want to say this...but I think his assistant is a Janitor. [img]https://i.imgur.com/1VONakc.png[/img] Jane: Hm? [img]https://i.imgur.com/ES3CmDW.png[/img] Daniella: (He's been quiet for quite a while.) [img]https://i.imgur.com/eYPyTpJ.png[/img] Italo: It might be like an obvious choice to put the blame on...but this is because a Custodian would be the perfect person to stay there without standing out too much. Not only he does have acess to all of the rooms in the school, he would also be the perfect candidate to inform the spy about the disable cameras. I can't really think of anything else. [img]https://i.imgur.com/t7Aekjz.png[/img] Hiagor: I see...So if we piece everything we've theorized so far, it would be that: Our Janitor stood near the window of Jane and Tsuya's classroom for a while to observe it. Then, when he saw Tsuya leaving the classroom, he told his partner about it, and now... [img]https://i.imgur.com/W4oa1le.png[/img] Hiagor: Oh...snap! Music: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpLx3iDxPv8]Intermission ~The Deepening of the "Night"[/url] Everybody came to the same conclusion, but Jane was the only one to say it out loud. [img]https://i.imgur.com/rpq7CTr.png[/img] Jane: The Spy is with Tsuya right now. [img]https://i.imgur.com/b7H26fV.png[/img] Italo: Calm down Katy, these are just assumptions after all. [img]https://i.imgur.com/KlZlCGM.png[/img] Jane: We still have to explore every possibility...and right now, we have to make sure Tsuya is safe. [img]https://i.imgur.com/nqdrfMm.png[/img] Hiagor: While she still has a point...right now, if anything big happens, the cameras would've seen it. [img]https://i.imgur.com/E8vTZvl.png[/img] Jane: Right... [img]https://i.imgur.com/Ulre3gW.png[/img] Hiagor: Let's wait for any calls from Renath. [img]https://i.imgur.com/cFfvPp8.png[/img] Jane: Right...I'll go ask my classmates to see if they saw the Janitor outside. [img]https://i.imgur.com/DGyJGiV.png[/img] Hiagor: Then we'll head to the Faculty Office. I don't think there's any use on asking more students right now. Jane then, went back to her classroom in a hurry. While their deduction was full of "ifs", she still had to make sure if some of them hit the mark or not. Team D headed towards the Faculty Office in order to regroup. [/hider]
