He refused to believe most of the things I told him, even with evidence. Also, he was much more concerned with entertaining himself with childish pranks than hearing any warnings about this place... He seemed like a fool to me.

I hardly wish to bring any further harm to your garden, either. If you need to punish someone later, it won't be me.

[Because Kaoru won't let himself get caught, obviously.]
