That evening, Felix and Homer tried several times to find a chance to speak privately with Kevin. However, he was always in the same room as Galen, and the two of them came and went together. Despite their efforts to separate them, they couldn't get rid of Galen.
Finally, they waited until Kevin went alone to the toilet. Homer kept an eye on Galen, while Felix stood guard outside the toilet, waiting for Kevin to come out. Kevin was unaccustomed to the local food and water, so he stayed inside for quite a while. By the time he came out, Felix was shivering from the cold.
The light was dim in the area. When Kevin stepped out, he saw a shadow and jumped in surprise.
After recognizing who it was, he relaxed and said, "Oh, it's you, General Quinton. You startled me."
Felix stepped closer and was about to speak, but Kevin smiled and said, "If you can hold it in, why don't you wait a bit longer? Let the smell inside clear out."
Felix chuckled.
As Kevin addressed him formally by title, Felix decided to do the same, saying, "I was waiting for you, Sentry Ziegler. There are a few things I want to talk to you about."
Kevin, his voice indifferent, replied, "Don't say anything here. Let's talk inside. Aren't you cold?"
He shivered slightly, feeling his legs numb as though ants were crawling up them.
Felix lowered his voice. "Sentry Ziegler, the generals who were looking for me tonight—they've served under General Sullivan for many years. They're worried about him, so they spoke out of turn. It was an honest mistake."
Kevin's tone remained calm, saying, "General Quinton, are you hoping I won't report this to His Majesty? If it was just an innocent mistake, they wouldn't have shouted about it. I advise you not to interfere. Let them say what they want, and you mind your own business. As for me, I'll report as needed. Don't forget, this is the first official mission since you all returned. If it's not done well, your future's as good as gone."
Felix felt the cold settle in his chest at those words.
