One look at Ventus tells him it is exactly that, though...
The skepticism quickly turns into shock as Nathan drops the package on the table, backing away from it with a hand covering his mouth.
He has no words for this.  The most common ways to get Dubious Disks are to either have a highly skilled, typically League approved programmer make you one based on information released by Saturn after he turned Team Galactic into a proper energy research company...or to have underworld connections.
Nathan has no reason to believe Ventus had used the first method...
The researcher deftly grabbed the package before it could slam into the table and damage the delicate contents inside, plus draw the attention of the other people in the room towards him and Nate. Ventus then slow turned his head towards him, and Looked him straight in the eyes. Gone was his weary resignation, his gloomy disposition, and his unintrusive presence. In its place was firm seriousness all throughout his expression, and had a warning gleam in his own all seeing orbs, plainly telling his friend to not cause a scene.
"Not here, Nathan. If you want answers, follow me," the sociologist? slowly said, his voice bariable audible to his friend and their Absol. Closing up the package with unnatural smoothness and non-chalance, Ventus picked it up and stood, before walking towards the private rooms of the Center, with the young trainer (Hopefully) trailing behind him. Once they found an empty room and entered it, the researcher? pulled out a scanning device and swept the area of the room, as if he was looking for something in particular, before the response came up negative. He put it away, and took a seat on the table, motioning for Nathan to sit opposite from him.
"Sorry for leading you here, but I don't want to cause a scene in the middle of a public area. It would do neither of us good if people overheard us and started to panic or grow unruly. Now....what is it you want to ask me about, Nathan?"
