Blair went ahead and took out another thing-- a transparent ziplock bag. He handed it to Ethan as well and said, "This was the remaining drug I found in Mateo's room. We can have it tested.

The day of reckoning was finally upon us.

Ethan sighed and nodded somberly.

"I will announce the results in three days."

While waiting for the rest of the investigation, Mateo was put in jail for the meantime and Richard was grounded.
