Chapter 205: A Talk With Mr. Slade.

His laugh echoed through the pit as if Kaito’s words were some kind of joke. Mr. Slade tried to stand but his legs gave out, the weight of the chains dragging him down until he collapsed again, the clinking sound filling the silence.

"It sounds funny to you now, doesn’t it?" Kaito asked, his brows lifting as he studied him. He had tried for more than a week to get the man to talk but not a single useful word had slipped from his mouth.

"You are not expecting an answer from me, are you?" Mr. Slade muttered, his tired eyes fixed on the student standing before him. "It has been weeks since you threw me in this hell. The school authorities will find out soon... they must have already started searching."

"What investigation?" Kaito asked, dragging a chair closer before sitting down with his legs crossed like he had all the time in the world.

"Principal Valois should be investigating my disappearance by now. You were the last person I spoke to, so you will be questioned and arrested."

"Wait... do you think I am a fool? Do you think I am a child?" Kaito’s voice sharpened with disbelief. "I am twenty one, don’t forget, the alpha of the largest pack. If I want something done, I make sure it is clean. Just so you know, no one is looking for you."

"What do you mean by that?" Mr. Slade’s voice cracked with shock. He wanted to believe Kaito was only taunting him. "I am a staff of this academy. If I disappear, they will look for me. I am sure of it."

Kaito gave a low chuckle as he leaned forward, his elbows resting on his knees. He closed the distance between them so the man could see how serious he was. "You vanished right after our last talk. The school news already reported that Mr. Slade quit his job due to stress and walked away from the academy. Do you know what your colleagues felt? Anger. They think you should have spoken to them if you had a problem. You said nothing, so they let you go."
