Even Byron couldn’t help but shiver.
“You believe what you see with your own eyes?”
She repeated Nelson’s words with a calm smile, her expression growing even more composed.
“Alright then. Just watch for yourself.”

She tapped something on the computer–no one could quite tell what–and then walked over to the printer.
Nobody knew what she was up to. Many were itching to call her out and accuse her of putting on a show.
But since Byron remained silent, the rest dared not speak either.
Soon, the printer began humming.
The first page slid out.
Everyone, except for Emma, gathered around in curiosity.
Alice picked up the paper and handed it to Nelson.
“This is my handwriting.”
Nelson hadn’t thought much of it at first. But now, he examined it more carefully.
The calculations on the page matched exactly with the data Pandora had submitted earlier.
But the handwriting was clearly different.
It looked like it had been painstakingly written out by someone else–someone who had spent long, sleepless nights copying it down.
There wasn’t a trace of it being printed.
He froze, completely stunned.
He couldn’t believe his own eyes.
As someone who worked in tech, Nelson never imagined the same field could betray him in this way.
“These days, most papers look the same. And considering this paper was written within the last year, it’s even harder to tell. The handwriting simulation software I used was developed overseas. It combines samples and creates convincing imitations.”
Alice glanced up.
“The original developer? Some hacker on the dark web. The software was eventually banned in most countries due to massive misuse. But a few people downloaded it before it was pulled. And since the dark web’s servers are still running, the program still works.”

She recounted the whole thing slowly and clearly, then turned to Pandora with a faint smile.
Pandora’s face went ghoulish, her body trembling uncontrollably.

“Working with the dark web is like striking a deal with the devil. In the end, the one who suffers will be you,” Alice said softly,
Nelson wasn’t a fool.
His gaze turned serious as he turned to Pandora.
“Tell the truth!” he snapped.
Pandora didn’t look at him. Instead, she turned to Alice, eyes wide with hope.
“You’re Mrs. Nolan. You can help me, right? Please … you can help me, can’t you?”
Alice’s expression didn’t change.
“You can go back and tell the person who helped you that I sent her a little gift. I hope she enjoys it.”
Pandora’s pupils contracted sharply.
“You’re sending me to my death!”
The words slipped out of her mouth before she realized. At that moment, she’d basically admitted to everything.
Once she came to her senses, she glared at Alice, her voice shaking with fury..
“You did this on purpose!”
Nelson clutched his chest, the stress hitting him hard.
Byron rushed to call the university’s medical team.
But Alice seemed utterly unfazed.
She didn’t even blink at Pandora’s hateful glare.
“If you’ve done wrong, you have to face the consequences,” she said,
She opened a previously unviewed surveillance video.
The footage played.
It showed Pandora using her phone, texting someone.
Following the instructions, she downloaded an app.
But she didn’t notice her antivirus flashing a warning.
Even when prompted to uninstall the antivirus software, she followed through.

Her face in the video glowed with excitement.
The scene shifted, and campus network logs filled the screen.
Using Pandora’s phone, the other party tried to break into the university’s confidential system.
They failed.

Alice looked at Nelson and said, “Professor Clem, the student you cherish so much? She couldn’t even recognize a basic scam. Worse–she acted as an accomplice for a foreign organization. Doesn’t that make you feel ashamed of yourself?”
She let out a quiet laugh. “Haha, you had it coming.”
Nelson clutched his chest tighter, his face now pale.
The emotional blow was too much. He coughed, and blood splattered out from his mouth.
