Chapter 225 Six hours later, Quinlyn was being interrogated alone, Quinlyn said, making her stance very clear, "I will not make the final antidote." Curtis sat across the table with his fingers interlaced and his brow furrowed.
Curtis said, "Quinlyn, you know that you have violated the law. You will be charged with attempted murder and manipulation of others, and the number of people has reached 43.
"The Juvenile Act has just been revised. Do you know what you are facing?" "Yes," Quinlyn nodded with a calm expression. "I'll be sentenced to life." She had read through the regulations and even helped to revise them. Curtis said, "Then why?" "I am guilty." Quinlyn looked up at Curtis. "Curtis, lockup." Curtis stormed out, forbidding visitors to Quinlyn.
People cand went downstairs.
100% (+68 Because there were too many people imprisoned on the island, even Bennett and the others were forcing themselves to help settle the people and count and register them.
When Howard arrived, he saw a floor full of cigarette butts.
Howard said, "Curtis, Glenn called. He said he couldn't reach you." Curtis said, "The battery's dead." Curtis instantly lied with the phone lying beside him with its battery removed.
Howard looked away with a weird expression.
He said, "Did you stop the spread of the news, refuse to answer calls, and not request backup because of Quinlyn?" Curtis asked, "What? Are you going to tell on me?" He raised an eyebrow and glanced at Howard.
Howard quickly waved his hand in surrender. "No, no, no.
"I was just curious why you did it. Quinlyn is a good girl. I know it.
"She's been out there trying to rescue us while we're locked up. It must have been very difficult for her.
"If possible, I hope you can show mercy." Curtis was surprised by his words.
Curtis said, "I heard Quinlyn didn't like you. She even hung you up. It's so nice of you to plead for her.
Howard could tell that the old man genuinely cared for Quinlyn so he sat down, ready to tell him the whole story. "At that time, she had no other choice.

"You have no idea how I felt at that time.
"Perhaps after dealing with so many major cases, I had becnumb.
"My heart suddenly ached because of her. I felt it was worth being hanged even a few more times." Curtis snorted, disdainful of his despicable test. But he soon sighed.
Curtis said, "I was worried that she was too soft-hearted at first. I thought she would fail without a cruel heart.
"But now, it's even better. She even shocked me. I really don't know what to do with this girl." He felt like he had several more silver hairs.
Howard said, "Actually, she's just not good at expressing herself. They were not necessarily all her fault.
"Anyway, we still have stime. I'll try my best to stall Glenn. Once we find evidence, we should be able to seek leniency in court." Although Howard didn't know the details, he had a pretty good guess based on the ease with which they landed on the island.
But this did not comfort Curtis. He thought, 'She is going to be on trial!' On the third day, the statistics and list of names were finally released.
Everyone gasped when they read the report.
Survivors: 56,750 Deaths(Incomplete): 15,273 Of the more than fifty thousand people, half were subjects of experiments and half were laborers. Any of these people could be selected at any tto play the game.
If this list were to be made public, it would surely shock the whole world.
But the trial would also be an extremely tough one.
Curtis said, "The mastermind, William, is the head of an old and powerful aristocratic family in Eagle Island, wielding considerable influence in the House and Senate.
"The accomplices include prominent figures from politics, business, academia, and entertainment. Sof them were not present. The list was extensive, encompassing people from various countries.
"They were all incredibly influential, making prosecution very difficult.
"They had the government's support so I am not optimistic about the lawsuit." It was actually worse. Anyone with sexperience could see that once this blew up, it would most likely end in a stalemate, dragging on for a while before people forgot everything about it.
Curtis would have lit up a cigarette if they hadn't been in a meeting.
Curtis asked, "What about the victims' families?" 68 100% Chapter 225 Someone replied, “Many of the subjects of the experiments cwith their families. They signed the agreement.
"While it pains them, all they want now is compensation to move on with their lives.

After a long tin that kind of environment under constant pressure of privileges, they understood how the world worked and no longer trusted the law.
Curtis said, "Although the workload is heavy, I need you to make detailed transcripts. Appease everyone and contact their families first." Someone answered, "Yes, sir After the meeting, Curtis went to the central control room.
Quinlyn was currently being held here in solitary confinement.
She was reading a file.
Curtis asked, "You've been holding that file. What's in it?” As soon as Curtis entered the door, he saw her close the file.
Quinlyn said, "It's Xena's file. I want to know how she's been doing these past few years.
Curtis murmured Xena's name.
He remembered that Xena was the head of the island's hunter group, responsible for finding new victims, usually young girls, for the island.
She was about the sage as Quinlyn.
Her crimes were heinous. If she had been alive, she would definitely face a life sentence.
Curtis asked, "So what did you find? Did she live a good life?" He asked it as he observed Quinlyn's face, trying to find a breakthrough.
