Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

Chapter 2873 provides the answer.

"Oh?"

Tokino was not familiar with bone age identification.

But Charlene is a professional, and since she's so certain, her conclusion must be correct.

If what she said is true, wouldn't that mean that either Professor York or the Dean is not dead?

Charlene spoke softly, her tone carrying a hint of certainty, "It seems that our initial guess about the murderer was correct; it is one of those two people."

Shino narrowed his eyes, pondered intently for a moment, and then slowly said, "I think I have an answer. What about you?"

Charlene smiled slightly, her eyes sparkling with the same understanding. "I have one too."

Tokino smiled and said, "Okay, let's go outside and submit our answers!"

The two talked as they walked quickly towards the outer area.

Tokino looked at Director Kurid and said firmly, "Director, we already have the answer."

Director Curry said with a serious expression, "If that's the case, then speak!"

However, I must remind you that you only have one chance, so please consider it carefully.

When giving your answer, you also need to explain your reasoning process.

The two nodded and exchanged a glance.

Charlene asked, "Shall you do it, or should I?"

Without a second thought, Shi Ye said very politely, "You do it! After all, you're the one who discovered the final problem."

Charlene didn't refuse, and then explained in detail, "Then I'll tell you the answer: the murderer is the dean."

As for why I make this speculation, the reason is actually very clear.

First, I have reviewed Professor York's relevant files and past records. Although he is an academic fanatic, he sometimes appears obsessive and irrational due to excessive dedication.

However, he has always adhered to a clear bottom line when it comes to professional ethics and personal conduct.

This bottom line makes it unlikely that he would do anything against his conscience, even in the most extreme circumstances.

On the other hand, I have two main reasons for focusing my suspicions on the dean.

Firstly, the secret underground base of the hospital has a complex structure and strict access control. Only the highest-level managers could possibly have a thorough understanding of the hospital's internal structure, traffic flow, and security layout.

Secondly, the existence of a time machine inside a hospital is highly unusual, given its sensitive and technologically advanced nature.

Despite his high academic standing, Professor York did not have sufficient administrative authority and resource mobilization capabilities to transport and install such large and confidential equipment inside the hospital without anyone noticing.

Only a dean, who possesses both the authority to oversee the overall situation and the operational space and ability to bypass conventional approval processes, could possibly achieve this.

In addition, while flipping through old newspapers about the period when the hospital was closed, I carelessly missed a news article in the very corner.

The news report described an incident that was closely related to the dean.

The news report stated that Mona, the chairman of the Vanstar Group, committed suicide by jumping off a building after incurring huge debts due to the company's bankruptcy.

This Mona is the dean's wife.

Just now, when we returned to the archives to search, we specifically checked the files of the dean and Professor York.

It was discovered that the name of the wife registered in the spouse information section of the dean was exactly the same!

Shi Ye seemed somewhat surprised, raising an eyebrow slightly as he asked, "Is there such news?"

"Have."

Charlene nodded firmly, then looked down and began rummaging through the pile of documents.

Her fingers swept quickly and precisely over the documents, finally stopping at a certain spot. She tapped the page lightly and said, "Here it is."

Shino leaned over to look and found that the report did indeed exist. He couldn't help but exclaim, "You're quite observant."

Charlene smiled and explained, "I didn't look closely at the time, I just caught a glimpse of the name."

I only vaguely remembered it when I glanced at it in the archives later.

So I watched it again.

Shino nodded thoughtfully.

Charlene pressed further, "Back then, did Brother Ye agree with my speculation?"

Tokino nodded solemnly in response: "I completely agree, your reasoning is excellent."

In his view, Charlene's logic was rigorous and clear, without any loopholes.

Of the several figures involved, the dean's ambition was indeed the greatest.

As a leader, and with a wife who comes from a business background, his way of thinking is inevitably influenced by commercial interests due to his long-term exposure to such influences.

Therefore, his collaboration with Professor Ethan on the research project was likely not just for academic advancement, but also because of the commercial value and potential benefits involved.

Therefore, he was once again certain of Charlene's judgment.

After hearing this, Director Curry asked with a serious expression, "Are you sure? Once you confirm, there won't be any more chances to revise it!"

The two exchanged a glance and replied firmly, "No changes. This is our final conclusion."

Curry nodded and solemnly announced that the answer was correct.

"The truth of the entire storyline is just as Charlene deduced."

The company run by the dean's wife is in serious crisis, with its cash flow broken and it on the verge of bankruptcy.

Faced with his wife's predicament, the dean was extremely anxious but powerless to help her directly, and ultimately chose to take a risk.

He began secretly accepting kickbacks, embezzling hospital funds time and time again, and even accepting bribes.

Even worse, he instructed that inferior drugs be used to make exorbitant profits, resulting in serious problems for many patients after taking the medication.

However, all of this was not hidden forever.

By chance, when the dean was having a private conversation with someone in his office, a cleaning worker who was cleaning outside the door overheard part of the conversation.

Meanwhile, the doctors and nurses who had died gradually noticed the irregularities in the accounts and medicines during their daily work and began to investigate in private.

Realizing that his scheme was about to be exposed, the dean, in order to protect himself, ultimately decided to kill and planned a series of actions to eliminate witnesses.

As it happened, Professor Ethan's advanced research and development theory required human trials, so the two hit it off immediately after their conversation.

Actually, you two overlooked a crucial clue: the evidence of bribery and falsified accounts hidden in the dean's office.

Charlene, intrigued, pressed for an answer: "Where is it hidden?"

Director Curry said, "It was hidden in a secret compartment in the floor under the office carpet."

Charlene was speechless for a moment after hearing this.

This is hidden so well, who can find it?

At the same time, Tokino raised another question: "Then the ghost face that Charlene saw was the Dean who traveled through time and space?"

Was his appearance intended to disrupt our investigation?

The director did not deny it, but smiled and said, "It's necessary for the plot!"
