Jack went to the school, questioning the dead ghoul's colleagues and acquaintances. He made sure to ask about the deceased's lunch. Everyone seemed to know that he was a vegan.
"Oh, he hated being a vegan, but he loved his wife too much to eat anything else. So he would mostly eat fruits and vegetables, with those fake meats that they sell at the market now."
One of the other bus drivers at the school seemed to know a lot more about him.
"Do you have any idea why he would eat something made of meat then?" Jack asked the man.
"Well, as I said, he did hate being a vegan, so it wouldn't take much to get him to eat it, I assume," the driver said. "Maybe he found himself in the cafeteria by accident and couldn't resist the smell of the meatloaf?"
"Cafeteria?" Jack asked with a confused look.
"Yeah, you said meatloaf, right? That's what they were having for lunch yesterday."
