Of course the new guy decides to go taunt Yuji for needing to step away, claiming that it was probably someone who had a crush on him and that Yuji should go attend to that instead of interacting with the weirdo that roleplays in public. In response, Yuji pulled an eyelid down and stuck his tongue out at Adam before he retreated to the nearby men's bathroom. Once he was alone, he looked down at his watch Digivice. "Is something wrong, Kazuo?"
"I sense a Digimon nearby, Yuyu," the little ladybug sprite told him, "I thought I sensed a very strong one earlier but it was kinda dull, but now I sense a very VERY clear one nearby!"
"Y-You do?! Do you happen to know where it is?"
"We're in the bathroom, right? It should just be outside the door then."
"Right. I'll go and check it out." Yuji would then walk to leave the bathroom, and that's when he overheard another conversation between a teacher and one of his fellow first-year students... her name was Hana, Yuji believed. Anyways, they were talking about something particularly strange, with Hana claiming that she didn't know what Weston was talking about. Of course Yuji made sure to make himself look like he wasn't eavesdropping.
Hana tried walking away, saying she needed to get back to class. Of course Weston walked around in front of her to stop her once again. "Hana, I gave you a demand to not let your... not let your you-know-what out, and you disobeyed me. If this were not a highly classified subject I would've disciplined you, Hana. Please, go back into the bathroom and put him back, and I'll know if you did or not."
No way... could this Hana girl be a Digidestined as well?! Yuji thought as he eavesdropped on the conversation.

If there was one thing that was becoming abundantly clear, it was that Adam was getting bored of entertaining some meager peons' attempts at being decent people (read: annoyances) and had much more pressing affairs to attend to. It wouldn't do to be late to class on his first day and possibly get into the hitlist of ANOTHER teacher.
Still, the boy with the watch still was something he needed to keep tabs on. As such, he was quick to pull out his phone and take a picture, discreetly enough that it would be incredibly hard to notice unless one had the perception of a specialist, before addressing the rest.
"Well, this... was an experience. However, we all have more important things to do than bicker like a group of toddlers." The flamboyant brat commented, taking a look at his Rolex and starting to walk once more. "Now if you'll excuse me, I have classes to attend to. Ta ta!"
And thus, the boy took off. Once out of sight due to the moving crowds, Adam started sending messages to his minions while forwarding the picture he just took. It was a clear order: Track the person in this photo and report anything they do to me.

Hana just gave Weston a flat stare after he moved to block her again. Hana took a moment to plan her next move, before deciding to just screw it. If Weston wanted to make a scene out of this, then she would give it to him. "Alright, fine. You caught me."
Han would then take off her backpack and reach inside of it to pull out Rush (still in Kuramon form). As he was held, Rush did his best impression of a stuffed animal, going limp and silent in Hana's grip. Holding the limp Kuramon, Hana dramatically told the disguised Wisemon, "I brought a freaking plushie to school. And apparently that's soooo dangerous. Yeah, like a plushie could actually hurt someone. Is there anything else you want to overreact about, or can I actually go to class now?"
To finish it off, Hana gently squeezed the Kuramon in her hand, eliciting a small squeak from the jellyfish-like digimon, before putting him back in her backpack and walking right past Weston.

As Adam walked off Leroy muttered "What a weird human." He then turned to Hiroshi who had his head turned towards Weston and Hana looking at the Kuramon in her arms. Leroy found it odd that Hiroshi didn't respond to his muttered words knowing his twin could easily hear him despite the words being under his breath. Then he noticed what Hiroshi was looking at and, out loud, asked "What does she think she's doing?"
That seemed to snap Hiroshi out of his dumbfounded state of being as he faced Leroy and asked "What was that, Leroy?"
"Dumbfounded into not hearing me? That's not like you, bro."
"I know. I know." Hiroshi said shaking his head at his stupidity before he continued "Such a thing is dangerous and I should be paying more attention but apparently you are seeing what I'm seeing. Apparently you're seeing what I'm seeing though."
Leroy nodded then said "Should we do something, bro? You know, some form of damage control."
"I don't know. It seems sensei has a handle on it so far." Hiroshi replied before Hana walked past Weston. "Then again. Maybe not. I think we should talk to her but please, please, don't cause any trouble Leroy."
"Ugh. Fine. Buzzkill." Leroy grumbled as he and his twin approached Hana.

Weston stared back at Hana as he awaited her answer, arms crossed and everything. The two might've had some sort of friendship but Weston was still the adult in this situation and he wasn't going to let one of his students carry around something that could get them into a load of hot water. At last she finally seemed to give in, which made Weston give a sigh of relief. She took off her backpack, pulled out who Weston assumed to be Rush... and dramatically (and loudly) told the disguised Wisemon that he was overreacting because she brought a plushie to school.
"W-W-Whuh?!" Weston asked with a gasp, unable to properly react to this unexpected turn of events. Was Hana seriously trying to pull this right now?! Oh, she was SO going to have a talking-to in private later!
Meanwhile, Yuji was watching this scene from the bathroom, and it was pretty obvious to him that the "plushie" that the girl was holding was definitely a Digimon. ("This must be the Digimon that Kazuo was sensing...") Yuji whispered to himself. The girl would then walk past the teacher, who was clearly still recovering from the shock of what just happened. Yuji decided to discretely following her as well, though it seemed like those other two that were talking to Adam earlier had the same idea... well, this was odd. Nonetheless, Yuji would still discretely follow from behind.
"...damn it, Hana," Weston muttered as he rubbed his forehead. "Can't she see that I was trying to help her? By Homeostasis, I need a drink... can't wait for school to be over now... wait, where are all those kids going?" He asked himself as he saw Hana, Leroy, Hiroshi and a boy with crazy hair he'd never seen before all seemingly walk together. "I know for a fact they aren't all in the same class... I better keep an eye on them."
