TCOTRB: The Case of The Red Bubble

🔴🏵 Chapter XI: Odval

Chapter XI: Odval

The boy began scratching his head as he was once again swarmed by a huge amount of information.
To add a bit of refresher, he remembered how QSPYWARSY once blew up the secret facility ten years ago while Miss Odval and Jingmei had fled the country in their youth.
It's safe to say that Uriel was among the felons who died in the facility. Milo suddenly heard his mom calling from downstairs.

"Hey, Milo! Mr. Patel is inviting us for dinner at their place. I don't want you staying cooped up in your room again!" Gladys reminded him.

"Oh, let's not forget that his daughter Sita wants to meet you!" Jason chuckled.

"C'mon, dad! You're making things up again," Milo yelled.

His dad jokingly slapped him on the back once he stepped out of his room. The young teen insisted on staying at home. However, his wishes were denied and he was rushed to get dressed.
The thought of passing along the busy streets while dodging firecrackers is quite overwhelming. He prayed this shall be brief and nobody pairs him up with anyone. For all he knows, Sita might not even be interested in boys.

[At 20:00 After dinner at the Patels]

Milo immediately fell into his bed while almost causing Hades to fall off the other side. The feline meows softly as it receives a gentle pat on the head.
"That was totally embarrassing! I can't believe dad would think Sita and I are gonna get married," he ranted, "She frankly admitted to not liking me at all but it doesn't mean we can't be friends."
Hades looked up at him with those round amber eyes and gently blinked. I know how you feel.
They could hear Jason chuckling about the awkward interaction. "Yeesh! That was pretty cold ... He ain't her type," he said. It's a good thing he didn't walk in as the boy needed some time to process everything.
Now, what stood out from their interaction with the Patels is the fact that Sita has an older sister, Jasmine, who also attends the RFA and assures him that not everybody from their school is evil.
She was very humble, never let their high status get to her head and often spoke against the bullies. She has an impressive resumé, being a coach at the Summer Taekwondo Program downtown to a philanthropist.
At the same time, everybody from the RFA is rather secretive since they're not allowed to reveal everything that's happening within the campus walls.

I finally have bits of information to add to my investigation ...
