Brian seemed angry, yet he didn't act recklessly or cause a scene in the academy. He went to William's quarters to speak with him privately.
"What do you remember from yesterday?" William asked.
Sitting in the chair inside William's room, Brian placed a hand on his forehead, trying to recall as much as he could from the previous night. It wasn't easy.
"I remember we drank and talked about random things, and then you asked me some personal questions—like wanting to know what kind of work I do here."
William then said, "And do you remember the reason I asked that?"
Brian couldn't answer right away. William nudged his memory.
"It was because I'm investigating the people at the school, remember? The headmaster put me in charge of the investigation. You know, to uncover more about those spies."
When Brian heard that, it was as if something clicked in his mind.
"Ahhh, I remember now. Yes, I understand. But why the hell did you try to enter my mind? Didn't you trust my word?"
