They were already late for class, so the four waited for lunch in the cafeteria. At the same time, Zev and Loel talked in front of the counter. They left Brian and Jody at the table, facing each other.
"If we don't get there on time, you must have drunk real dragon's bane," Loel said.
"Yeah, thank you, Loel," said Zev. "But why did Doc Rupert agree to make dragon's bane juice?"
"Since outsiders are usually the ones who attack, he was also surprised when he found out that you were one of the suspects," Loel said. "Anyway, who killed Josh? Someone crushed half of his jaw. It was like the culprit was mad at him."
Zev glanced at Brian and Jody. "The truth is, I thought about Brian."
"Brian?" a quick glance at Jody and Brian.
"You remember what he said at the clinic yesterday when he saw Jody's jaw was sore?"
"Yeah, I remember," Loel said. "But what he drank earlier didn't impact him?"
