Don't judge me as a girl, judge me by my skills. Besides aren't you too a woman like me? If you look down on me as another woman you'll never know what will hit you. I'm the one and only Liz Romero who can solve this case and a strong independent woman who doesn't need to be a damsel in distress. You can't even solve this case alone, what are you even good for?

~Liz Romero

3RD POV [No Date and Time because you already know at the last chapter]

"Um... Hi?" Gail awkwardly starts to lighten the situation up. Which didn't have any effect at all rather than making it more awkward.

Others mouth were wide open to the scene right in front of them, Kaye facepalms herself. Suddenly...

"WHY ARE YOU BOTH HOLDING HANDS????????!!!!!" Liz, pointed out like some animated cute chibi with long brown hair and big forest green eyes. Literally like a chibi. [Did her personality changed again?]

Gail and Kyoya both blinks in puzzlement. Then they soon realized why. Kyoya did intended to hold Gail's hand so she won't get lost through the thick crowd of people. He didn't mind holding her hand too but the situation got out of hand already and others are starting to misunderstand them.

They both started to blush lightly and stopped holding each other's hand, missing the warmth coming from their hands. Kyoya coughs and composed himself.

"I only held her hand so we won't get separated from each other." Kyoya explains calmly with precision. A smart move to make a very reasonable excuse.

"...." It fell silent, Kaye facepalms once more and others kept silent.

"Oh..."

More silence... Kaye had no choice but to speak up. The conversation wasn't getting anywhere, and she just had to save them.

"Oi, shouldn't we proceed to the interview already?" Kaye says to them with a flat tone, she said it like a normal thing. Her eyebrows slightly twitching at the side, she never wanted this to happen.

Soon enough the awkwardness stopped and everyone became normal again. Is that even possible? Kaye sweat dropped at them.

"SO, did you guys really bumped into Shun?" Mikha starts with a noticeably high pitched voice.

Gail nodds, "I did actually bumped onto him. He helped me."

Kyoya's face was an emotionless one. "I was merely a witness."

Smirking, Liz snorts at the duo. Nothing really important on what they said.

"After that I took a break and bought a shake from the shake stand. I was also beside the woman who bought the drinks for her friends." Gail continues further.

"Hmmmm, do you have anything more to say?" Julz asks her underclassmen.

Gail shooks her head. "Nothing more. That'd be all."

"Great."

Liz eyes widened. Something is really missing, she just knows it but it's at the tip of her tongue. Mikha and Kaye was at her left and right.

"The case is taking longer than what I thought." Mikha notes. "Also this is the 26th or so time for 16 years I've been in the school, that we experienced like this in a school festival. Has this been normal to me? Or have I've been not living normally?"
