"Anong klaseng kahunhangan ang sinasabi mo, Janice?" malakas na sambit ni kuya Xander na nakatayo na sa mga sandaling ito.
Our heads can't accept any information right now. Uncle Johan's revelations were all new and unfamiliar compared to the things we used to know. It's as if everyone of us were living in a life full of lies minutes ago.
Kanina nang ianunsyo ni uncle ang buong katotohanan sa tungkol sa karumaldumal na naganap labing isang taon na ang nakalilipas, gusto ko na talaga humagulgol. Hindi dahil sa mga dinanas ng mga pamilya nila kundi sa nagbabadyang pasakit na naman sa dalawang taong nagkahiwalay ng maraming taon.
If you'd ask me if I already knew ... why yes. Alam naman talaga naming tatlo nina Rennei at Fiacre. Noong mga panahong iniwan namin si Alexandria sa dorm, hindi naman talaga shopping at groceries ang dahilan kung bakit kami umalis.
The truth is, we went to Mr. Devroid's sole sister, Ms. Almira. Simula nang nagkaroon ng palaisipan sa amin tungkol sa nawawalang 'Kirsten', madalas na ginugugol ni Rennei ang pag-iimbestiga rito. Ang babae kasi na iyon, masyadong tahimik kaya walang nakakapansin sa mga oras na pupuslit niya. When she told us that there's a possibility that it is really Alex, Fiacre and I decided to come with the final touch of the investigation, even if in that time, we don't know what will come on us. Kaya nga, ang lakas ng loob namin sumugod sa headquarters ng mga heads noon eh.
We came home with the same fact that they just received. We just came home with a more revealing fact though ...
"Master, ano na pong gagawin natin?" nag-aalalang tanong ni Janice.
"Hindi tayo makakasugod ng basta basta sa Mhorfell Academy hangga't nawawala ang tatlong gamit, ang mapa sa underground, at ang blueprints ng buong eskwelahan." nababahalang sagot naman sa kanya ni Xander.
"I have the blueprints." Spade exclaimed, asking Keith to bring the music box that he got from the party's auction.
He put it down the table in a very careful manner that you may think that it is a fragile object. "Why are you not opening it?" I asked.
"We need a key. A key with a star shaped end. Inside that box were the blueprints that we are looking for."
"Star shaped? Wait, Dash, you do brought Alex's personal belongings, don't you?" parang nag-aaligagang singit ni Rennei.
