Kapitel 221: Strange, this is too strange

Although the call with Alice was a bit nonsensical, it did give Ryan some food for thought.

Why hadn't he thought of going home earlier? It clearly seemed like the best option right now.

He really didn't know how to find Anna. He had planned to swing by the school that afternoon and maybe pick up some clues from the teachers.

But on second thought, going back to school right now didn't seem wise.

To outsiders, he had been gone too long. Returning to the orphanage was one thing, since everyone there was trustworthy, but showing up at school would likely cause a huge stir.

He wondered how the school had handled his absence. Had they simply suspended him, or had they reported him missing to the police?

If it was the latter, going back now might just bring trouble to Alice.

Plus, a trip to the school today meant Ryan would be off the grid for at least another week, which would only make people more suspicious.
