His laugh echoed through the pit as if Kaito's words were some kind of joke. Mr. Slade tried to stand but his legs gave out, the weight of the chains dragging him down until he collapsed again, the clinking sound filling the silence.
"It sounds funny to you now, doesn't it?" Kaito asked, his brows lifting as he studied him. He had tried for more than a week to get the man to talk but not a single useful word had slipped from his mouth.
"You are not expecting an answer from me, are you?" Mr. Slade muttered, his tired eyes fixed on the student standing before him. "It has been weeks since you threw me in this hell. The school authorities will find out soon… they must have already started searching."
"What investigation?" Kaito asked, dragging a chair closer before sitting down with his legs crossed like he had all the time in the world.
"Principal Valois should be investigating my disappearance by now. You were the last person I spoke to, so you will be questioned and arrested."
