He froze in shock as Ae Rin left the room.
"She knows I lied? What is she gonna do to find out? There's no way she can find it out, right?" Several thoughts were racing in his mind.
He managed to calm down after a few minutes and eventually convinced himself that she could never find it out.
"He did lie to me. It was so apparent. Ah, right! Hannah said that she found him in the hallway. Maybe I could just check the CCTV footage of the hallway!" She said to herself as she walked down the stairs.
She hurried down to the second floor and softly knocked on the door of the security control room.
After a couple seconds, a middle-aged guard opened the door and asked her why she had come there.
"Uh, hello, sir. Can I just...check the CCTV footage of the third floor, please? It's really urgent." She requested politely.
The guard nodded understandingly and invited her in.
He sat in front of the computer with Ae Rin at his side.
"Please show me the hallway footage and fast forward it to 12:00 pm." She requested.
"Oh, alright. But why do you want to see that? Did something happen back there?" He asked curiously.
"It's really nothing to worry about...." She managed to smile.
The guard stared at her suspiciously but Ae Rin managed to keep on a poker face.
"Ok, fine. Let me fast forward it." He sighed and leaned slightly towards the computer and fast forwarded the footage.
Soon, they noticed a man walking down the hallway whom she assumed to be Kyou.
He suddenly turned around as if he heard someone calling out for him, but of course, there was no one else other than him.
They also saw him screaming and toppling over and falling to the ground.
"What in the world....." the guard gasped and stood up almost immediately, "Do you expect me to believe that nothing is wrong in this?!"
Ae Rin stepped back and her hazel eyes turned into crimson red eyes.
"That's none of your business. You better stay out of it." She said coldly as she looked deep into his eyes.
"Y-You are...!!"
The guard was startled and was about to scream, but it was too late. His vision became blur and he blacked out.
Ae Rin got out of the room after making sure there were no witness or evidence anywhere around the room or outside. She destroyed the CCTV camera of the room and the one outside without anyone else watching.
"The others will eventually come to his aid. I shouldn't waste my time. I have to confront him directly. The footage was way too suspicious. I wonder if it's something to do with the Crew Of Death." She thought to herself worriedly and hurried to the third floor.
