For a second, Penny's mind went blank as she stared at Slater standing by the door. Instinctively, she hid her phone behind her back and cleared her throat. This felt like getting caught red-handed.
Much to her surprise, Slater, still holding his phone to his ear, slowly lowered it. His eyes shifted to the board behind her.
'The board!' She perked up, realizing she could use it as an excuse for the message she had just sent. "Third Brother, you're… here! How did you know I was here?"
Slater kept his eyes on the board before answering, "Yugi." He then slowly peeled his gaze away and walked toward her, stopping at her side. His eyes scanned the meticulous investigation map she had.
"Did you do this?"
"No. Second Brother did," she said, secretly exhaling in relief as she turned her focus back to the board. "Even I was surprised when he showed it to me. It's very detailed. I don't think we'd ever get lost now."
