บท 197: A DIFFERENT LANCASTER (MAYBE?)

"FRANKLY speaking, I don't think your 'cronies', as that kid called them, did this.  Not that I'm saying the allegations against you is true.  But if the virtual pod Townsend was in really was tampered, I don't think of any of the students here would be capable of doing it," Wulfric said once he was alone with Cyrus Lancaster.  "Do you get what I'm saying?"

Cyrus bit his lower lip.  He was afraid that if he acted ignorant here, the prince would definitely remember him as someone stupid.  How could he let that happen when he was already painted as a bully?

But if he admitted it, then it's like he was already agreeing to what the other was insinuating.  Before he could even answer, the prince had already spoken once again.

"Never mind.  I'll just say it straight.  If Townsend's virtual pod was tampered, it could only be done by a third party.  And in this case, there's a high chance that they were connected to your family," Wulfric said with a scoff.
