Chapter 536: Chapter 536: I Want to Confess_1

"It seems that one must always be careful when using electrical appliances."

The next morning, when Song Lan saw the obituary posted on the forum, he couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotions.

A young and vibrant life had permanently left this world because of an accidental electric shock during the therapy session for students when the equipment leaked electricity.

Faced with such a tragedy, he really was...

"How come I can’t see any sadness in you at all?"

Lu Xiang gave Song Lan a white glance.

The obituary stated that the teacher who died from accidental electrocution had been found that morning, and the students in the room were still in a coma. In order to clarify the situation at the scene of the incident, the school immediately investigated the surveillance footage.

The scene in the video was astonishing.

This was not murder. After repeated confirmation, they had to accept that the teacher was unlucky enough to have encountered the equipment’s electric leakage, resulting in an electric shock that led to death. The girl had fainted before the incident took place.

The faint girl was sent to the infirmary for recuperation early in the morning, while the staff at the scene tacitly concealed the specific circumstances, as cognitive correction therapy was a bit too advanced for most students, and not everyone needed it.

But Lu Xiang knew that the cleaning staff was not the first eyewitness at the scene of the incident.

Last night, Song Lan had "witnessed" the whole process of the incident, naturally including the moment the victim was electrocuted.

Regarding this accidental incident, he saw it with his own eyes and felt it deeply in his heart. For this, he even stayed up all night, accompanying the deceased until the body, stiff from electric shock, had completely cooled down before he reluctantly withdrew his Spiritual Energy.

This world is always filled with suffering.

Another potential good friend, whom he had not had the opportunity to know, had paid with his young life.

Out of a sense of duty as the head of the Law Enforcers department, Lu Xiang hoped to remind everyone to try to avoid becoming friends with Song Lan. Among his friends, the best outcome any had managed so far was currently carrying a bounty of several tens of millions of watts, fleeing in all directions in harsh environments "outside," for fear that someone might fancy their head for the reward money.

Toward friends, Song Lan was always as cold as winter.

"Angle has become stronger and stronger in controlling Spiritual Energy, or perhaps the monster possessing him used its powers last night."

Of course, Lu Xiang did not believe that the "Interrogation Room" teacher died from an accidental incident caused by equipment failure. Death was predetermined; the difference lay only in how it was achieved. Even if the equipment had not malfunctioned, he might have been struck on the head by a falling chandelier, or slipped and hit his temple right on the corner of a table.

What are called "disasters" and "luck" appear to be closely related to fate itself, yet she has not been able to figure out what the "correct path" actually entails when triggering abilities.

And she increasingly felt that after Angle had mastered the control over bringing disaster, he too had become a puppet of fate.

He did not disappear into "the outside" as originally planned and as the Unusual Case Investigation Bureau had speculated; instead, under the guidance of fate, he came to Purple Wisteria Academy.

Perhaps, like Langinus, who disappeared in another timeline, there still exists an enemy who is destined to confront him here.

"This means he is now able to activate his powers proactively; they did not find any trace of Angle within the school campus."

Early that morning, Lu Xiang called Dr. Kulin. The latter had immense trust in the academy’s surveillance systems, stating that regardless of how Angle sneaked into the campus, they would be able to capture the news at the first instance.

Lu Xiang placed the character card that Qi He had given them on the table and scrutinized it carefully. After intense cramming, she had gained a rough understanding of the criteria for assessing Psychic Abilities. "This means that Angle’s abilities have reached ’very high’ standards in terms of ’Coverage’ and ’Controllability’."

But this was still not the complete power of "Justice".

According to Song Lan, in that erased timeline, "Justice" once dominated a rainstorm that covered the entire Seventeenth District, turning the rain into an incarnation of calamity, intricately "judging" those who were on the wrong path.

She had a premonition that perhaps before long, the same thing would happen at Purple Wisteria Academy.

In any case, the obituary on the forum and last night’s attack had sparked widespread discussion among the students, and many began to suspect that there might be some connection between the two.

After all, this was the breeding ground for Psychic Ability Users trained by the United Government; what appeared to be accidents to ordinary people might very well be the result of abilities covertly at work. The students could easily come up with many abilities that could cause sudden malfunctions in electronic equipment with their eyes closed.

And overnight, the universally acknowledged outstanding student had become a bad student who broke the school’s rules.

The discussions that filled the campus made the teachers of Purple Wisteria Academy feel like they were facing a formidable enemy.

More than the events themselves, what made them more vigilant was the students’ growing curiosity.

Curiosity is the seed of thoughtfulness and restlessness; they did not need the students to have too many thoughts of their own.

While the entire campus was shrouded in unease, an uninvited guest knocked on Lu Xiang and Song Lan’s door. The knocking was light and intermittent, betraying the conflicted emotions of the visitor.

As soon as Lu Xiang opened the door, she saw Xinya standing at the threshold.

She found it hard to forget this child whose annoying skills were even superior to Song Lan—despite being only a few years younger, she insisted on addressing her as "aunt".

Xinya’s attire now seemed desperate to scream suspicion—a thick winter coat and a woven mask covering her face, leaving only her eyes visible. Lu Xiang had to stress that it was her Law Enforcer-trained eyesight that recognized Xinya, not because she held a grudge from yesterday.

The girl looked as if she hadn’t slept well all night, with fatigue filling her eyes.

In fact, she had left the dormitory early this morning, tormented by a sense of panic all night.

However, she felt as if she were cursed.

After leaving her dorm, her "witness" constitution kicked in again, and this time she saw a corpse charred black by electricity. Not long after, she also saw one of the "bad boys’" teammates unconscious, being taken to the infirmary.

Before long, Xinya saw the obituary on the forum, and by the timing, after she was interrogated, the teachers called another girl over.

A strong sense of guilt surged in her heart.

She always felt that it was her report of the attack at the school gate as a witness that led to this series of events.

The teacher who was electrocuted to death due to equipment failure and that sufficiently frightening thought-correction remedy.

This made Xinya’s mind a mess, and she found herself wandering to this place without realizing it.

"Is something the matter?"

Seeing Xinya with her head down and silent, Lu Xiang asked.

"I..."

After hesitating for a moment, Xinya finally made up her mind, "I want to confess."
