[Well, it's starting to sound kind of like a cult now.
If it weren't in some sort of attempt to emulate a particular individual it might've appeared more like a special private school, but the way Mello's describing it makes it sound a whole lot more like some person--this inventor--had an obsession with this L and wanted to create his own version. Not only that, but he apparently decided to use children who were in positions to be manipulated in order to do so.
SO Lance's opinion of this entire subject is definitely moving toward being incredibly sketchy at best and downright malicious at worst, but he's still trying to stay neutral for now and again nods for Mello to continue.]
