Five minutes had passed since Mino's hurried departure, leaving behind four confused people. Although the host had declared that the party had ended, the three remaining guests didn't leave.
"Something's wrong. I've never seen Mino this serious."
"Since when did that nerd grow such a sharp tongue?"
"Hey Royo... don't use such abrasive comments everytime. Yes, but it's true that something really is off. What do you think, Maina?"
Amene and the others turned their faces towards Maina. She was lost in thought.
"He really believed something that strange...?"
"""....."""
A collective silence followed.
"He had no other choice but to. You will consider something to be God's miracle if you can't explain it but it saves your life."
Royo said this. Others were dumbfounded and were staring in his direction. They really didn't expect him of everyone to come up with a viable explanation. But thinking logically, it was a possibility which could be easily thought of.
"So we have no way to figure that out. Stalking Mino will be difficult..."
It was Maina's comment.
Now it was the turn of the other three to give her the 'What the fuck is she talking about?!' look. It was even more unexpected.
[Stalking! Why did she come up with such an idea! And even more, why does she treat it as a viable method whose only limitation is the difficulty?!]
Amene was shivering in her boots!
[ If what I think about Maina is true, then her desire to stalk Mino is even more of a serious issue!!]
"The thing is, he got seriously injured and Dr. Rein is involved in this matter. These things he himself admitted."
That was Amene's verdict.
"Then we must ask Mr. Reinard." , suggested Maina.
"Are you serious!! Do you really think he will tell..."
Amene shouted at the top of her voice in response to Maina's stupid suggestion.
"But there's no other way to extract the info out of him. Or you have a plan Amy (Maina's nickname for Amene)?"
Amene bit her lip. She really didn't. Her friend had outsmarted her for the very first time. Turning her head sideways to look at the two boys, as if pleading for support, she found blank looks.
"Maina is right. We will ask him. There's no other way. And we have to act quickly. We will wait outside the gate. When we all gather, then we will straight away head over to infirmary and ask him."
Warret declared these words with a loud voice, giving out vibes of positivity and hope.
"So we will. Amy, please help us too, okay?"
"Sounds like a plan."
Others instantly voiced out their approvals.
Sighing in exasperation, Amene facepalmed and said, "Ugh you numbskulls... fine, I'll go. But if I think of a better plan, then we will reconsider okay?"
"""Of course. You are the most reliable among us!"""
Three similar reactions all at once shocked her, but then she smiled lightly, her face bright and motivated.
[We will definitely uncover the secret of this strange incident.]
If Mino was present here, he would've surely thought in an exasperated manner, [Damn... why the hell do they want to put their fingers in my pie!]
