There was a reason for the recent absence of Teacher Lee. There had been a few troubles at the clan. There were communication devices that could be used at the academy, and Lee was currently using one of them.
A square device that looked a bit like a small box was placed in front of him. Coming out of the top, there was an oval-shaped object attached. Pressing one button would play noise, and pressing the other would record.
This was what would be used to speak with each other, so there were gaps between responses at times. But if the two were on the device at the same time, they could continuously press the buttons and wait to hear and listen to each other's messages.
Lee pressed the button to his left side, and a message played.
