As days went by, Putri dares to attend school. The prefect teacher almost scolds her for being absent too long considering she has to be a role model. "Welcome back, Putri. I hope... you're okay now." The teacher greets Putri softly. Evalya can sense a dangerous glare from Haiqal to Putri. Looks like she has to be around her the whole day.
"Oh! I forgot to mention something! Let's welcome our new 3 students! They'll temporary replace our... absent student until we have enough students to continue our studies." 3...? That's a lot for a new student. Evalya scans the 3 students as they take their seats together.
Evalya can grasp something's off about them. Evalya sends some signal to Putri about them. ' We should follow her. ' ' Why? Do they look too suspicious? ' ' Exactly! They might be a helpful classmate for us! ' ' Let's follow them at lunch ' ' Roger that '. "Why are you acting weird, Evalya? Are you still worried about Zafirah?" Qysara taps Evalya's shoulder.
"Oh! N-no! I'm just stretching. Still, I'm worried about Zafirah, haha." Evalya let out an awkward laugh. "Whatever you say, Evalya" Qysara laughs and continues minding her business. That's a close call. She might freak out and tell everyone the truth.

"Ain, I think they're plotting to follow us," Elyza whispers to Ain, who happens to notice it too. "Let them follow us. We have a discussion to talk about anyway." Abyana replies to Elyza, who's still quite unsure about that but she won't disagree with it since it makes her job easier.
Evalya and Putri try their hardest not to be suspicious but eventually failed as they got surrounded by them. "I suspect that you already know we're not here to replace the students?" Abyana looks deeply into Evalya's eye. "We're not here to cause any trouble so don't worry. We're here to discuss something."
"About what? I don't recall us doing anything wrong." Putri replies in fear, wondering if they had done anything that upset them. "My little poor lamb, I know everything. It's about Zafirah. She died, right?" Abyana sighs. Ain giggles with Evalya. "S-so what?! Are you going to accuse us of killing her? If so, then you have no proof." Evalya angrily replies.
"Oh my, I'm so scared! you have NO respect for us ' new students '. Too bad, because we're here to help you with the case but you're too rude." Ain clicks her tongue in response to Evalya. "I'm not even being rude! And! Even if you wanted to help us, we're not telling you who's the- "
"Haiqal, is it? Too easy. We had our ways of finding out who." Evalya is in shock, and Putri hides behind Evalya. They're scary for a new student.
"We're detectives. We're here to solve the case and bring world harmony. Even if we know who the killer is, we don't have enough proof for that and you might be a suitable person to help us. Of course, your friend can help us but she won't be able to attend the court and we're not responsible for her death if she dies midway." After revealing their true identities, Evalya couldn't disagree about that. That's the only way to stop Haiqal from going too far.
------------
Nighttime has hit the sky. Evalya texts Haiqal :
'Hey, can my friends and I come to your house for a group study? You can invite your friends too if you want! I want to revise the subject for our upcoming exams.'
'Sure. Anything for you <3'
'Thank you, pretty boy, <33'
'We'll come over at 10 in the morning, okay?'
'Alright, see you tomorrow, pretty girl <3'
'Hehe see you tomorrow too, pretty boy <33'
"Yuck. I can't believe you fell in love with him, dude." Ain almost pukes on those texts. "Well, it's the only to come over to his house. We're taking chances, okay?" Evalya groans at their replies.
"Shall we repeat the plan? I'm worried that you guys forgot the whole plan." Elyza speaks her mind off, catching everyone's attention.
"Okay so basically, we need to get into his house. To check the whole house we'll split. Evalya you help or watch Haiqal making tea if he offers to, or whisper to him about it. After that, make sure he stays in the kitchen as long as you can. If he comes back, just make an excuse that we had to go to the bathroom or any excuses. Evalya and Putri will keep Haiqal busy while we three will search for clues around the house for the time being. If there happens to be a dead body or a kidnapped person, we'll call the cops and arrest him immediately. If the plan goes wrong, I'll make sure we get out of the house alive. Got it?" They all approve of the plan. It seems like things are going to be an eventful memory.
