On the other hand, it was also possible that nothing woulde of this at all. They could only wait for the matter to escte further maybe then there would be a turning point.
“I can’t give you a definite promise right now,” Eliza said, “but thew has long arms, and no one can escape it forever. The person behind this… will not go unpunished.”
Hearing that, Jean finally gave a firm nod.
Meanwhile, ire University had already been dragged into the mess. The phone in the president’s office hadn’t stopped ringing.
The president had just walked back in after seeing off a visiting official when the constant ringing started up again.
The dean of students stepped into the room. “President, should we still be answering these calls?”
“Answer them? Can’t you see the situation? Until the matter is investigated clearly, we’re not taking anyone’s calls.”
Just then, the president’s private phone rang.
Seeing Wendy’s name on the caller ID, the president didn’t dare dy. He answered immediately, speaking in a rushed, anxious tone. “Ms. Wendy! Things have blown up – what should we do? You need to give me instructions. The police surrounded the school early this morning. Nothing can be leaked out right now. I’m really at a loss here!”
“You’re at a loss? I put you in charge of theb building. Tell me how so many human bones suddenly ended up being dug up.”
Wendy’s voice was low and dangerous.
The president felt deeply wronged at the usation. “Ms. Wendy, it really wasn’t me. You already told me to clean everything up – why would I have anyone bury bones under theb building? Yesterday, after I got word, I had those bones dug up and moved to the outskirts. When I saw them today, I was just as shocked as you!”

Usually, when the school board came to inspect, it was all just going through the motions. But today was different.
For some reason, instead of looking at the teaching building, the education bureau officials had gone straight to theb building – and kept staring at the ground outside.
Now that he thought about it, how could that have been a coincidence?
Someone must have done it on purpose.
“If it wasn’t you, then it was someone else?”
Wendy’s words left the president/unable to answer. But he knew this much – someone had deliberately reburied those bones, even making sure the soil bulged just enough to catch the officials‘ attention.
Wendy’s voice was ice–cold. “No more sses at ire University’s medical school for now. Tell the graduate students to keep their mouths shut. Anything about Emilia and Ethan- not a word.”

“Don’t worry, Ms. Wendy. I’ve already told them. They all want to graduate and get good jobs at the central hospital. They won’t talk.”
If they did, they’d be implicating themselves. Who would dig their own grave?
“I heard there’s a girl named Jean who’s been making noise online about issues with Emilia’s suicide note.”
“That’s just some little brat. If she’s in your way, Ms. Wendy, we can make her the next experiment.”
After all, if not for that girl, they wouldn’t be in this position.
“Experiments are too risky. I’m going to have her captured so I can find out exactly who’s working against me. Then I’ll throw her in my backyard pond and feed her to the fish.”
Wendy hung up.
The president wiped the sweat from his temple. It wasn’t ethical, but he was under her thumb.
He quickly summoned the dean of students. “Find Jean’s advisor. Have them use a thesis revision as an excuse to meet Jean in the teaching building.”
“Buttely, Jean’s had two bodyguards with her. It won’t be easy.”
The president didn’t care. “Use your head. I said it’s just for a thesis revision.”
The dean understood – this was about luring Jean out without the bodyguards.
Meanwhile, Jean was with Eliza and Halbert. As the three of them left the teaching building together, her advisor came hurrying up to her.
