They were about to get out of the school cafeteria but the catering man who recognized them did them a favour, telling them to just eat at school . Jude, who was spooning soup, grimaced and touched his stomach, causing anxiety on Tim's face . It was a pity to see Jude, who never said he was sick while eating strange junk food, moaning all day long, and Tim clicked his tongue with an unpleasant sound .
“I think you should go to the hospital . Seeing that it keeps hurting, I really don't even know where it could have gone wrong . ”
"Yes, well . . . If I have time . . . . "
"Not when you have time, make sure you go . You don't look so good, just tell them you're in a hurry at the station and come back . . . "
"Well, excuse me--"
Hearing a small, cautious voice, Tim cut off his words and turned his head . Two girls and a boy stood side by side, one of whom has a memorable face to the two detectives .
"Clara? What's going on? And the others . . . . . "
"I'm Connie, this is Mary . Clara said she had something to say, so we came with her . Clara, come on . "
When Connie poked Clara in the back, Clara looked back with a sneaky look at the boy and approached Tim while wincing .
"Well, you know, it might not be a big deal, but as you said earlier, is there any adult or anyone he’s recently gotten close to… . . "
"Oh, I did . Why, do you have anyone in your mind?"
"Well, it’s not a suspicious person, but there's one person I've been seeing recently who suddenly got close to Reeve, but, I didn't think it was weird because it was a teacher . . . "
"Really? It's all right, who is it? Do you know what kind of person are they?"
The child soon looked at the floor as if she was scared to speak . Clara then raised her round eyes, as if she had made up her mind to the soft-spoken Tim .
"He’s a social science teacher, and his name is Lance Hamilton . Well, he’s been talking to Reeve a lot lately, and I . . . . . . I don't know about Carrie, who died the second, but he was also close to Eli . I, I don't think he’s a weirdo, but I just thought I'd have to tell you . "
"Well, what kind of person is he?"
"He talked a lot about difficult philosophies . Yeah, pe, pessimism? He said that, and he talked a lot about what it is to live and die, and it's so difficult that I don't understand everything, but I think he’s a bit of an unusual person . "
"Yes . . . . . . I got it . Thank you for coming to tell me . How did you know we were here?"
The twin-ponytailed girl smiled a little shyly and held her hands together .
"I asked the teacher, and the teacher said you were heading toward the cafeteria . Hey, I'm going to get going now . The class is starting . "
"Okay, go ahead . To the other kids, I hope you don't say anything . "
"Yes, goodbye!"
Listening to Connie and Mary's scolding--"Are you dragging both of us to say that?"-- Clara turned her steps with a much brighter face . To Jude, who was still gently patting his stomach, Tim quickly turned his head and opened his mouth .
"What do you say, should we summon him and investigate?"
" . . . . . . then . . . . . . . . . . we have a reason . . . . . . . . . kreung to hand it over to Beckman, and let's go back separately . I'm going to take a break . . . . . "
"I'll keep in touch with Beckman . By the way, do you really not have to go to the hospital?"
"Yes . . . . . . . . I'm feeling better now . Let's go, I'll get better after a little rest . "
What a dubious answer . Tim tilted his head with a discomforting look on his face, but Jude rose from his seat with an unfinished bowl of soup without saying anything . As he stared at the quivering back for a moment, Tim shook his head and pulled his cell phone out of his pocket .
