Eliza’s instincts told her the secret was hidden in the ring they now had in their possession.
That night, the research facility quickly sent news.
At ire University’s medical school, the administrationunched urgent PR efforts. To prove the school was clean, leadership personally came to inspect.
Eliza, however, doubted they would uncover anything. When she had gone herself, she’d found nothing- the school had surely erased every incriminating trace long ago.
Sure enough, by the next morning, an official statement dered the medical school free of arry. wrongdoing, and online discussions were swiftly scrubbed.
Eliza hadn’t expected the forces backing ire University to be so powerful. The information was buried almost instantly. Clearly, someone else was helping the Foster family from behind the scenes.
She rested her chin in her hand. “I didn’t think such a big stir would settle this quickly.”
She had hoped to use the moment to trigger a wave of public outrage. Now, that seemed impossible.
“I have another way,” Nn said.
“What way?”
He raised an eyebrow. “Tomorrow, I’m going to make the situation blow up even bigger.”
The next morning, chaos erupted outside the medical school.
Two groups of people appeared, shouting at each other. They imed to be family members of students who had gone missing or died, and their arguments quickly drew a crowd.
“Why did our family only get half a million inpensation, but yours got a million?”
“Your child just went missing–my daughter is dead! Why did you get more?”
Their voices rose, and more onlookers stopped to watch. Many took out their phones to record, and some even began livestreaming. The parents‘ clothes marked them asing from smaller towns or working- ss backgrounds–some had brought entire families.
At such an elite school, parents like these stood out, and everyone quickly realized they were from ire University’s medical school. With the recent controversy fresh online, the scene drew heavy attention.
Soon, the school’s principal got a call from security. rmed by the potential fallout, he hurried to the
gates.
The moment the parents saw him, they rushed forward, clearly recognizing who he was.
“You’re the head of the school, right? Give us an exnation! Why did their family get a million for their dead child, but you’re brushing us off with half a million for our missing one?”
“That’s right! Exin yourself!”
Another man shouted, “We’ve heard the truth—our kids didn’tmit suicide, they were killed by your school! We want answers now, or we’re not leaving!”
