Officer Matthew gave an honest reply, “Yes, based on Ms. Grist’s identification, they are the primary suspects.”

“But Ms. Chapman purchased the facial cream, and she was the one who took it out. What does it have to do with

Ms. Jenner?

“Isn’t this a subjective and arbitrary judgment based solely on one person’s word?

“Is this how the police academy teaches you to handle cases?”

Officer Matthew felt sweat forming on his nose.

Carter let out a light chuckle. “Of course, I’m just a doctor and shouldn’t interfere with your police work. How you

handle this case is entirely up to you, Officer Matthew. I only hope that the impact on our hospital can be

minimized.”

Even if Officer Matthew were as dense as a block of wood, he could still sense the implications in Carter’s words. He

observed how Carter protected the girl named Lina behind him, taking a protective stance…

Instantly, Officer Matthew straightened up and assumed a more respectful posture than when facing his superiors.

He shouted loudly, “Understood!”

Carter nodded, giving a slight smile.

Officer Matthew made a gesture and commanded, “Take the suspect, Gia Chapman, away!”

“What?” Gia’s eyes widened. “Why should I be taken away? And… what about Lina? Why aren’t you taking her?

“Hey, you can’t arrest people randomly… Let go of me!”

Unfortunately, no matter how she struggled and protested, the police officers held her firmly, and her voice

gradually faded away as she was taken down the corridor.

Lina’s mind went blank, but a thought suddenly crossed her mind. Was it actually her that Gia wanted to harm?

Thinking about it sent a shiver down her spine.

Amidst the fear, she also felt a sense of sadness. She couldn’t comprehend why Gia held such deep resentment

toward her. How did their once inseparable friendship reach this point?

“Mr. Irwin, the situation has been resolved, so we won’t disturb your rest,” Officer Matthew respectfully informed.

Carter turned his head and caught sight of the miserable girl. He was curious about how she ended up wearing the

bangle and what had happened to her classmate, whose face was wrapped in bandages.

He instructed his assistant to bring him the facial cream.

LC, an imported brand from Eropah with a long history, was highly regarded and renowned for its quality

internationally.

Could a brand like this really cause facial damage? Carter wondered. Not only did he sense something amiss, but

even an average consumer wouldn’t believe it.

Carter tightened his grip on the facial cream and pondered for a moment before speaking. “The matter hasn’t

been fully resolved yet. Since they’re visiting exchange students and this incident occurred in Southeast Aciatic, we

should provide them with an explanation.”

Officer Matthew was surprised. “Well…”

“First, arrange a hospital ward for Ms. Grist,” Carter instructed. “Bring in dermatology specialists for a consultation

to develop the most suitable treatment plan for her.”

“As for this jar of facial cream…” Carter looked at Officer Matthew, “I’ll keep a portion of it for detailed testing in my

hospital. Please take the remaining portion and hand it over to the forensic examiner for testing. We’ll have the

results in two days, and then we can compare notes to determine the cause of the problem.”

“Yes, that’s a good plan!” Officer Matthew agreed, taking a portion of the facial cream and leaving.

With the commotion settled, Heidi settled Violet down and escorted the students back to the hotel.

Lina remained seated on a bench in the hospital, lost in thought. She walked toward the window, hoping to gaze at

the night sky. Zuko had told her that the stars in Southeast Aciatic were magical and that if she made a wish upon

them, it would come true.

She associated the stars with Zuko. However, tonight the sky was shrouded in mist, devoid of any stars.

A sense of loneliness and desolation washed over her. She felt alone in a foreign land, without friends and with

people who wanted to harm her.

It was only by a small margin that her life hadn’t been completely upturned.

Lina gasped, gazing at the vast night sky in bewilderment. Suddenly, a gentle hand patted her shoulder.

“Ah!” Startled, she turned around and was astonished by the person before her.

“I apologize for startling you,” the nurse said gently, with a smile. “Are you… Ms. Lina Jenner?”

“Yes, it’s me.”

“Our director is requesting your presence. Please come with me, Ms. Jenner!”
