"This is an immature approach."
Meanwhile, somewhere outside the school.
The "delinquent youth" once again encountered the eccentric man he had met before, a man who resembled a medieval detective, now stood in his path.
Or, more precisely, the man seemed to have returned from the destination the youth had intended to reach.
As soon as the man saw him, he criticized his approach.
Like the last time they met, the man showed no sign of wanting to fight.
"Your approach won't stop the company. Your teammates, and anyone else involved, will be affected, like your other teammate, who by now should have received a summons from the Interrogation."
On hearing this, the youth's pupils constricted.
From the notes of the "ruins" he learned about the school's unseen methods, along with techniques for controlling the subconscious and deceiving the pinhole testers. The thought of those methods from the notes being used on his teammate sent shivers down his spine.
