Angela turned towards the sound and saw two elderly men in suits who had just sat down, smiling at
her. The men in suits in front of them were also looking back at her. Did they hear what I just said?
As she hesitated, one of the elderly men with silver hair and a youthful face asked, “You took a sip and
determined that senna leaves had been added to the water?”
Now, Angela was certain that everyone had heard her. She wasn’t afraid to admit it. If it weren’t for
Jessica’s mental state, she would have reported it to the teacher earlier.
She nodded. “Yes, I am sensitive to the smell of medicine, and this bottle of water was opened in
advance.
The two elderly men exchanged glances, a glint of light flashing in their eyes. “Are you a medical
student? I don’t think I’ve seen you before, one of the elderly men asked.
Angela slightly raised her eyebrows, a hint of expectation in her eyes. “No, I’m in the Foreign Language Property © NôvelDrama.Org.
Department, but I’m planning to take the exam to transfer to the medical department next month.”
“Good, that’s great!” The elderly man’s mouth widened into a grin, looking pleased.
Listening to his response, Angela suddenly felt that this elderly man was somewhat similar to Bruce.
The other elderly man looked at her curiously. “Why did you pour out half of the drink just now?”
Angela looked around and unconsciously lowered her voice as if she was about to share a secret with
the elderly men. Generally speaking, criminals love to return to the scene of the crime. I poured out half
a bottle of water to make the person who drugged the water think that my friend had drunk it, hoping
that they would reveal themselves.”
She wanted to observe who would pay attention to the drink, but after a while, she didn’t notice
anything. It
was the people next to her who discovered her first..
“You are quite thoughtful, and with your sensitivity to medicine, you will make a good medical student.
Study hard in the future.”
“Okay.” Angela, eager to find the person who drugged the water, brushed off the two elderly men. If it
weren’t for this incident involving medical issues, she would have been happy to chat with them for a
while.
She turned her head away, and the elderly men began to whisper to each other.
“Terence, it seems like you’re going to have another exceptional student. This young lady is both
perceptive and virtuous!”
Terence chuckled. “I didn’t expect to come across such a promising student while attending a
Brundelian speech competition. It’s fortunate that she’s going to study medicine. Otherwise, I would
have to find a way to convince her to switch!”
The other elderly man noticed that Terence was in a much better mood, so he cautiously brought up a
matter. “By the way, the person you asked me to find last time has been located, but unfortunately..
Professor Fisher passed away half a year ago.”

Terence Fuchs, the elderly man, was stunned, unable to believe it. Tears welled up in his eyes, and
after a while, he let out a deep sigh. “When I said goodbye to Professor Fisher, I thought I would see
her again soon. Who knew that in the blink of an eye, more than a decade had passed, and that
goodbye turned out to be a farewell.”
“Ah, my condolences, Terence. Professor Fisher taught you so much, and now you’re a medical
teacher. passing on what she taught to promising students. If she knew about this, she would be
happy
Terence nodded heavily, but there was a hint of sadness on his face compared to before.
While the people below the stage were filled with sorrow, the competition on the stage continued
enthusiastically.
Angela’s gaze swept over Jessica on the stage, then around the room before finally settling on a
person in the corner. Stella was frowning at Jessica on the stage, then her gaze fell on the half–empty
bottle of water on the table, looking confused.
Angela’s gaze became as sharp as a knife when she realized that Stella was involved. She noticed
Stella’s discomfort and hurriedly ran away. Angela’s suspicions were confirmed when she saw Fanny
waiting to go on stage. Is she involved in this, too?Stella isn’t participating in the speech competition,
so why would she harm Jess?
Jessica’s performance was outstanding. As soon as she stepped on stage, she outshone the other
contestants. The audience was captivated by her and listened attentively.
However, an accident occurred in an instant.
The banner above the stage suddenly fell, causing gasps from the audience. Jessica narrowly avoided
being hit on the head by the thick wooden stick. Angela immediately stood up, ready to rush over. But
Jessica quickly regained her composure upon seeing Angela’s anxious expression. She effortlessly
entertained the audience with a few jokes in fluent Brundelian, turning the mishap into a lighthearted
moment. When she finished her speech, the applause was thunderous.
Angela hurried to the stage to meet Jessica, but she saw Fanny and Stella quickly disappear.
“Angela, I’m fine! Did you see how well I performed? I feel like I’ll win first place!” Jessica reassured
Angela as soon as she stepped off the stage.
Angela checked Jessica and found that she was unharmed, which relieved her. “Why did the banner
suddenly fall?”
This question puzzled not only Angela, but also others. Concerned that it might harm someone else,
several logistics staff members rushed over to investigate. They discovered that the rope used to hoist
the banner had not been properly tied and had come loose.
“How could you be so careless? You can’t even tie a rope properly. Thankfully, it didn’t hit any
students!”
“I’m
sorry, but it’s really strange. I remember tying three knots,” one of the logistics staff members.
apologized hurriedly.
Angela’s eyelid twitched. When no one was looking, she pulled Jessica to the other side of the banner
to investigate. There were indeed three knots–tight knots that couldn’t be untied without force.
“Angela?” Jessica sensed that something was wrong and became worried.

“It’s alright. Let’s find a teacher and ask them to review the surveillance footage,” Angela suggested,
convinced that this incident was connected to Fanny and Stella.
Using such despicable methods and almost hurting Jess, I won’t let them get away with it easily! she
thought, and she was about to leave with Jessica when someone unexpectedly blocked their path.
“Angela Kins, why are you checking the surveillance?” Stella asked in a high–pitched voice, drawing
the attention of many people.
“Don’t you know why we’re reviewing the surveillance? It’s quite obvious,” Angela replied sarcastically.
Stella appeared slightly uncomfortable. “What nonsense are you talking about?”
Angela sneered and tried to walk past her, but Stella suddenly rushed forward and forcefully grabbed
both of them. “You’re not going anywhere!”
