When Cohen slightly distracted his attention, Kathy ran towards the door. She was about to hold the
knob but Cohen pulled her back, Kathy nearly fell.
She leant against the wall, looked at the crazy man.
“If it is not you, I have been admitted by Professor Watson. Kathy, tomorrow is your university opening
ceremony. I remember that you are selected as the representative to give a speech. If you are absent,
how will professor think about you…”
Cohen sneered, he quickly tied Kathy’s hands with the rope in his hand. She kicked Cohen instantly, he
had expected that and avoided it immediately.
He tied Kathy on the chair and narrowed his eyes furiously, “Don’t blame me, you should blame
Professor Watson for admitting you. I will become the representative to give a speech tomorrow.”
“When will you let me go?” Kathy asked calmly, looked at the surrounding, she seemed chanceless to
escape.
“Depend on my mood.”
“If I can get out from here, I will complain to the dean’s office,” Kathy showed her dull expression.
After listening to her words, Cohen did not panic at all and smiled, “You just try and see who will believe
your words.”
After that, Cohen put Kathy’s bag at the corner and locked the door when he left.
The light was dim inside the equipment room. The surrounding was full of dust, it was obvious that this
place has been abandoned for a long time.
Kathy untied herself agilely. After she got her freedom, she took out her phone from her bag.
But this location…had no signal.
She was depressed.
It was totally enclosed. People will rarely pass by there. She should have noticed Cohen’s action
earlier.
Kathy stood up and patted the door hard, “Can anyone hear me? Anyone?”
However, there was only her sound echoed in the room.
…
When Zofia went back to the hostel, it was nearly in the dawn. She frowned as she noticed Kathy had
not yet come back.
They went to karaoke. Kathy stayed with another classmate in the restaurant.
Why hadn’t she come back yet?
Although she disliked Kathy but thought of the possibility that Kathy would be her sister-in-law in the
future, she still worried for her.
She did not have Kathy’s phone number so she could just call her brother.
“I will come now. You just tell me what has happened tonight,” Bertie was working overtime in the
company at the moment, he put aside his job right away.
It was quite late, Zofia was afraid to go out alone, she could just wait for her brother at the downstairs.
Bertie kept calling Kathy along the way but she did not pick up his call.
His sights sank, it usually took half an hour to reach Ocean University but he managed to reach there in
ten minutes.
“Where do you all have your meal?” Bertie showed his worrying face when he got down from his car.
“At the Chinese restaurant in the north gate,”
Both of them walked there. The restaurant had been closed as it was in the dawn.
“Let’s search in other places.”
They had searched around the campus for several times but did not see Kathy at all.
Zofia sent message to every classmate who attended the gathering last night. Later, someone replied
to her.
“Cohen is the last person staying with Kathy yesterday, I already call my friends in the hostel to ask
him.”
Bertie nodded and stopped searching. He let Zofia go back to her hostel and wait for Kathy.
He went to the administration building and made use of his power to check the CCTV record in every
corner from last night until this morning.
But the CCTV in half of the campus area had problem last night. The screen was blurred.
“Ah, what allures Mr Marshall to come here?”
Aaron Fisher walked in from the entrance.
“There is a student missing, I am investigating on that,” Bertie said seriously.
“I will take charge of it, you don’t have the authority,” Aaron said.
Bertie invested in Ocean University by building a building in the earlier year, Aaron had not seen him
for a long time.
“What is the name of the student?” Aaron asked.
“Kathy.”
After hearing the name, Aaron was stunned and shut down the screen.
“No need to investigate.”
Bertie pulled his face, “What do you mean?”
“She is going to be expelled, we will not bother about her matter.”
Bertie frowned, he did not understand Aaron’s words.
“She is a new student for this year.”
“Of course I know but her personality is bad, Ocean University will not accept this kind of student!”
Aaron said strictly.
“What is the reason?” Bertie asked nervously.
“This is our matter, it has nothing to do with you, Mr Marshall,” Aaron did not say much, he was going to
meet the dean.
…
Joseph’s group. Joseph looked at the screen.
Ocean University had put up a notice which stated that Kathy’s exam paper was about 80 per cent
similar to another student, Caelan Hawkins. Due to that case, she was being investigated.
He instructed John, “Cancel all the plan for today and look into the case.”
After that, he left the office.
Joseph went to the administration building once he reached Ocean University.
Aaron came out from the entrance at that time.
He showed no expression when he saw Joseph, “Why you come here?”
Joseph did not care about him, he went to the dean’s office right away.
Aaron blocked his way, “Are you still going to argue for Kathy about the cheating case?”
After hearing his words, Joseph narrowed his deep sights and showed a sense of danger, “I think you
are the one quibbling. She does not cheat and she will never cheat!”
Aaron smiled, “Joseph, you can’t be so complacent, we have the exact evidence for it.”
In the office, Benedict Watson sat on the sofa, in front of him was the exam papers of Kathy and
Caelan Hawkins.
He did not surprise that Joseph would come.
“Professor.”
“Take a seat. Aaron takes the exam papers to me and tells me about the cheating case. Their answers
are indeed similar to each other.”
Joseph frowned, he took the exam papers and his face darkened gradually.
At the same time, Benedict told Joseph that the invigilator mentioned that Kathy was indeed acted
weird on the day of examination.
She laughed suddenly when the exam was about to end.
In such a serious situation, her behaviour was indeed strange and made people suspected of her.
“If it’s true, I can’t defend for her,” Benedict said seriously.
“Professor, I believe in her personality, she will not cheat.”
“I believe in her too but the dean had executed the meeting just now. Kathy will be canceled on her
admission qualification until this case is solved. There is only one week left.”
After leaving the administration building, Joseph called Kathy but did not reach.
Just then, a few students passed by him, their discussion could be heard.
“The field is weird. Isn’t the equipment room about to be dismantled? I have heard some weird
sound…”
“I think it is a woman’s voice but no one will get in there. Do we need to inform the dean?”
“I am afraid…”
