The school head's expression shifted slightly, a mixture of concern and determination etched across his features. He addressed the group with a firm yet comforting tone. "It has indeed been a long day, and I believe everyone needs some rest. It's been quite an ordeal."
He directed his attention to Ego, his gaze firm yet sympathetic. "Ego, come with me. There are some matters that require your attention."
Ego's heart skipped a beat at the unexpected summons. His mind raced with questions, curiosity mingling with a touch of trepidation. What could be so pressing that the school head needed to speak with him privately, especially after the bizarre revelation from the footage?
As the others filed out of the room, exchanging puzzled glances and speculative murmurs, Ego followed the school head, his steps tinged with uncertainty. The weight of the day's events bore down on him, leaving him eager for answers yet wary of what might unfold.
