After getting back in her car, Grace quickly found a few Druville College students

and asked them questions. It didn't take long to find out the name of the so-called

Al genius everyone was after.

When she finally tracked him down, he was sitting quietly at a table with his nose

Jasper's expression stayed calm and indifferent as if he weren't all that fond of
