Later, everyone had returned to Dekabase, where Doggy couldn't express enough how disappointed he had gotten in his team: "You may have deleted the enemy, but because of your mistrust, we have to pay for a lot more than just the electricity that was used."
Ban, who was more talking to Wells than to anyone else: "Why did you have to act so suspicious anyway?"
Wells had no idea what he was talking about: "What do you mean?"
"For one thing..." Hoji began, "... how did you know about Sen's Thinking pose?"
Wells sighed, then answered: "I admit I haven't been completely honest. I know that Ban's a fireball. I know Hoji's serious. I know Umeko acts her size rather than her age,..."
"Hey!" Umeko resented that remark.
"... All that long before I joined the team." Wells continued, uninterruptedly, "But that's just something you shouldn't brag about. I know exactly how I'd feel if somebody I don't even know does seem to know so much about me. So off course I said I didn't know anything else."
Doggie didn't really seem to show any distrust towards Wells, but still he wanted to know: "Is there anything else you are hiding?"
"I'd say 'no sir', but I think you wouldn't believe it. Right?" Wells replied.
Doggie did not answer yes or no. Wells didn't seem to care, when he decided to leave the room: "If anybody needs me, I'll be in the cafeteria."
Once again, as he left the room, Jasmine didn't seem to keep her eyes of him.
"Why do you keep watching him like that?" Umeko wondered, as she noticed how Jasmine kept staring at him.
"He's hiding something else." Jasmine answered, "Something he doesn't want anyone to know. Something for which he avoids physical contact with me."
THE END
