>Send the girls on their way, and begin looking into that peasant.

“okaaaaay! see you later, hermione!”
“bye bye!!!”
“take care!”

Hermione waves the three uglies off, the absolute picture of an elegant and refined lady, as her chauffeur drives them back to their paltry family homes. Simple solutions were often the best. Now, for her investigation.

At this point, most of the crowd has dispersed. There was nothing more to see, after all. Evelyn was taken away for treatment, the beast was detained. In addition to that, most knew almost nothing of what had happened. They were simply bystanders that happened to be in the area.

Her questioning, however, was not entirely fruitless. From one of her classmates, she was able to get a single name. Clover Beets.

Her phone buzzes. She glances at the caller ID, before immediately picking up.

“…Hello, father.”

“Hermione. Return home, and get dressed. We’ll be hosting an impromptu party for your sister tonight, in anticipation of her upcoming farewell. We expect you to be ready by six.”

“…Yes, father.”

The man hangs up.

Hermione takes a deep breath, exhaling forcefully, before putting her phone back into her pocket and heading for the mall’s parking lot.

>Hermione will be busy getting ready for this evening’s event.
