Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl

After hearing David’s statement, Mobius yelled at him, “David, we’ve been friends for years, and you’re

framing me like this?”

“I’m not framing you… Mobius, it’s time to turn around. Cheating is wrong.” David looked scared when

he saw how angry Mobius was.

“Enough, Mobius. There’s no point denying this. David is your friend so what he said is likely true!”

The principal made up his mind. “Mobius Waldorf was caught cheating and remains unrepentant. After

The teacher took out the questions and placed them in front of Mobius.

“This set is a little more difficult so you’ll have an additional thirty minutes, making it a total of a hundred

and fifty minutes.”

Mobius pushed it away. “I won’t do it.”

Pearl frowned. “Mobius, please take the exam. ”

“But I didn’t cheat! Why are they forcing me to do this?” Mobius protested angrily.

Pearl gave him a reassuring smile. “Take the exam, and leave the rest to me.”

Seeing her smile, Mobius reluctantly agreed. “Fine, I’ll do it.”

An air of
