"Most people won’t believe it, but there are always a few students who can’t think for themselves and get swept up in the noise.""And the posts—they come with 'evidence.' Photos showing you beating up an old woman, stealing a cane from an elderly man..."Alice's voice was thick with concern."Those images are clearly doctored. Some are so absurd—like someone’s thigh photoshopped onto an arm. And the resolution? Looks like something out of a bootleg VHS."Joseph shook his head in disbelief.He casually scrolled through the comments beneath the posts. The replies were overwhelmingly one-sided.> "So what if he’s a live-in son-in-law? His marriage is his own business. Posting Mr. Wilson’s private life like this is a violation of his privacy. You little troll—expect a lawyer’s letter soon."> "What kind of fantasy fiction is this? Mr. Wilson is elegant and refined—he’d never do such things."> "Do you think we’re idiots?"> "What a joke. Out of nowhere, a flood of ridiculous posts trying

"I'm sorry. I didn’t think it through at the time," Charles Martin muttered, biting his lip, his face flushed with shame."Mr. Martin, Nova University brought you in with a high salary—not to play political games," Lincoln Myers said with a weary sigh. "Please focus more of your energy on teaching. According to recent student feedback, your performance has been... mediocre at best.""Though I’m the head of the School of Modern Medicine, I must admit—Joseph’s teaching far surpasses yours."Joseph’s reputation had spread like wildfire throughout the medical school. Even students from the modern medicine department often flocked to attend his lectures.As much as Lincoln disliked Joseph on a personal level, he couldn’t ignore the facts laid before him. In truth, he had begun to regret initiating the investigation in the first place.Over the course of the inquiry, he had noticed gaps in Joseph’s personal history—but his academic background, credentials, and sheer volume of published

"I'm your big ghost, you must have a death wish!"Mason Alvarez snapped as she listened to Joseph’s shameless words. She seized his arm and twisted it hard."Agh! That hurts!"Joseph cried out in pain, his face flushing as a sharp ache shot through his arm.Seeing the sudden change in his expression, Mason Alvarez quickly let go, her face tinged with panic."Mr. Wilson, are you okay? Did I go too far? I didn’t mean to hurt you that badly."She had only meant to teach him a lesson—just enough to make him squirm a little. She hadn’t realized she might have overdone it."How about I twist your arm and see if you think it hurts?"Joseph shot her an exasperated look."You're always the one getting the upper hand and still acting like you're the victim."Mason Alvarez pouted, visibly annoyed."Alright, enough. Back to work."Joseph rubbed his aching arm and waved her off."Oh right, Mr. Wilson—how did it go?"Mason Alvarez suddenly remembered. She had been half-asleep earlier and had comple

“Exactly! Even if you wanted to look, he might not let you!”“Wait, are you saying there’s some kind of... secret hidden on his backside?”The bus erupted into laughter and murmurs. For some inexplicable reason, everyone became unreasonably curious about Joseph’s posterior.Had Joseph known that a group of respected elders were openly and passionately discussing his backside, he likely would’ve coughed up blood on the spot.“Ahem! Quiet, everyone,” Eryndor Vexley cleared his throat, calling for order. “Let’s hear what old Mrs. Barrett has to say. I’m sure she has her reasons.”The bus grew silent again. All eyes turned to the elderly lady, waiting for her explanation."That boy Joseph—back when he first joined the Academy, I remember he once had a nasty bout of hives. I was the one who treated him," said Old Mrs. Barrett, clearing her throat and speaking in a calm, measured tone."While examining him, I noticed a red birthmark on the right side of his backside."At that, the room fina

It had gone more or less as he expected.From this meeting, Joseph could roughly confirm one thing—several members of the investigation team had likely known him from before.They recognized him—but due to the nature of their roles, they couldn’t openly acknowledge that fact.Perhaps, once upon a time, he had shared some connection with them.Unfortunately, so much of his past remained a blur.“Principal, Professor Wilson,” Leonard Sanchez chimed in, “this investigation went more smoothly than I imagined. It seems the academic elders from Metropolis City hold Professor Wilson in high regard.”“I believe it’s more than just admiration,” Geoffrey Harris said, shaking his head with a thoughtful air. “Judging by their attitude, there’s something deeper at play.”“Oh? How so?” Leonard asked, intrigued.His question was intended to gauge Geoffrey Harris’s thoughts.“These senior members of the investigation team—not only do they admire Professor Wilson, but they also seem... unusually prote

Confronted by Eryndor Vexley's piercing gaze, Charles Martin faltered. The words he had carefully prepared slipped from his mind in a flurry of panic.“I—” he stammered, his voice trembling.“I’ll ask you just once,” Eryndor said coldly. “Do you have evidence, or do you not? A simple yes or no will suffice.”“I... I don’t, but—” Charles Martin stuttered, trying to justify himself.But before he could finish, Eryndor Vexley cut him off.“That’s enough. No need to say more. If your only reason for suspecting Professor Wilson is his youth, then there is nothing further to discuss.”“This world is full of gifted young minds—prodigies whose achievements defy ordinary understanding.”“Mr. Martin, if people could be condemned based solely on baseless speculation like yours, wouldn't society descend into chaos?”Eryndor’s voice was glacial, each word sharper than the last. His impression of Charles Martin had deteriorated to its lowest point. This man was clearly driven by self-interest, obse
