Chapter 1546: Distrust

It had been 3 days since Ning had begun working to find more about Dust. During the 2 days without Dust, he had to do simple investigations about the people and the place, making sure to not be seen at all.

But when he finally got Dust at the end of the 2nd day, brought to him by Katie, he holed himself up in his room all day.

Katie couldn't help but wonder if Ning was doing Dust after telling her not to. Should he stop him? But then she didn't know if she could.

Ning was a Cadet, who she would have been able to order just a few weeks prior. And yet, now she was a Cadet too, so she had no authority.

In the end, she decided to let him be. She didn't have the energy to deal with other people's problems.

She was in her room near nighttime when Ning finally arrived.

"Hey, how you doing?" he said, walking into the room without waiting for her permission. He carried a large bag that he put to the side and sat down on her bed.
