After the event that happened at the Vice Dean's office, Alex returned to attend classes as usual. Many students were curious about why Alex had been called, but they didn't dare ask him; they weren't close enough to pose such questions.
Of course, except for Eric who didn't even wait for instructor Henry to leave the classroom first before asking Alex.
Alex didn't know what explanation to tell the boy and didn't want to tell him that they were suspecting him of the missing item as well, because, according to what Ellie and the others had discussed.
They would continue their investigation on the void key in other areas, but would still continue keeping a close eye on Alex while he was in the university grounds.
Alex didn't want to get others involved so he told Eric that it was something important and was told never to tell anyone else.
"You can't even tell me, your best friend?!" Eric displayed a shocked expression while pointing at his nose.
