A couple of days had passed, but the commotion around the incident didn't seem to have subsided.
"So you parted ways from the start, so you don't know anything regarding this, is it?"
"Yes, I was afraid that I might be a nuisance to her and didn't follow her when she said she wanted to go alone."
I have been constantly bombarded with all sorts of questions. But taking my rank into consideration, they seem to believe it.
Well, keeping a lower profile comes in handy.
"Ok, thank you for your cooperation."
"It's f-fine. I am glad to h-help you."
Even my acting skills seem to have improved. I'm impressed.
With that, I left from there. The classes had been suspended prior to this incident, and all sorts of investigations have been carried out to find out who else was involved.
