Organized crime, premeditated murder, and spreading evil thoughts resulted in a death sentence. The man

didn’t die from his arrogant killing skills but from his website’s influence.

“The network administrators caught were struggling in life. Anonymously online, they boasted and gathered a

group of people.”

“X was a hardcore follower of Zane, wanting to lead a section, and when rejected, he turned murderous. That

day, he filmed the whole crprocess on a DVD, hoping to kill right in front of Zane.”

“But Zane had taken his medication and didn’t hear the noise, which becsolid evidence of his innocence”

Two days later, Quinlyn received a call from Bennett, detailing the final verdict.

Thinking of reduced sentences, Quinlyn asked, “What if he invents something?”

Bennett chuckled. “You think a little trickery can reduce a sentence?”

“Zane invented a prison defense system, a sympathetic reaction device, and smart surveillance. His innovations

pushed the government to consider leniency; his intelligence was measured at 130.”

“It wasn’t due to the severity of the crimes; they even wanted him on board. These inventions were kept as

classified projects, so they were never publicly revealed, which gave reckless people like X a false sense of

confidence.”

“Many countries impose heavy penalties for mental crbecause individual acts don’t have widespread impact.

But imagine if a group’s beliefs go awry; that’s terrifying.”

Quinlyn listened closely but struggled to understand since she didn’t believe in gods or spirits.

Even if the invention details weren't released, the live stream revealing the main conspirators of domestic

violence already helped the public understand Zane’s sentencing. Sbelieved his 14-year sentence was too

long.

The title of ‘hero’ rested upon him once again.

Meanwhile, numerous complaints flooded the Jelasica government website, with netizens petitioning to free the

main conspirators, giving these unfortunate people a chance.

Of course, there were voices on the side of victims, arguing that the families couldn't be forgiven for murder,

fearing distortion of humanity. Others, without media coverage, angrily pursued criminal accountability.

The situation spiraled into chaos, leaving the court deliberating awkwardly amidst public outcry.

Quinlyn also received a video call from Brynton; it was Glenn.

His hair was grayer, and his eyes showed many more wrinkles since seeing Zebulon at the airport. He seemed to

have aged years in just a few days and sat alone in an empty living room.

He said, “But your homecoming for the winter vacation caused such a stir!”

Quinlyn was taken aback. “Huh?” She didn’t quite catch that.

Noticing her confusion, Glenn chuckled and moved the camera, revealing others in the room.

About ten familiar faces filled the living room, all from the original team.

“In the last two days, various national petition offices received over 100,000 complaints, all advocating for

Zane’s main conspirators. Most petitioners had experienced domestic abuse, so Jelasica decided to revise the

laws regarding domestic

violence and criminal offenses.”

“As a participant in this event, | formally invite you, Quinlyn. Are you willing to join the legal revision plan?”

Upon hearing this, Quinlyn fluttered her eyelashes in surprise, understanding the implication.

Jelasica’s agreement indicated a relaxation of their vigilance toward her, perhaps due to her compliance during

winter break or her impartiality in Zane’s case.

“Sure.” She nodded.

Glenn smiled, the warmth brightening his eyes. Looking at the young girl across from him, he couldn’t help but

reflect.

‘She likely doesn’t realize that receiving such a remote invitation to revise legal clauses, paired with this team,

marked significant change in her status.’

Before, Quinlyn was a protected person; now, she had entered Jelasica’s core layer. When crucial decisions arose,

she would sit at the table with Curtis and Glenn as equals.

Quinlyn saw it as doing good. For several days, she stayed home, working on specific clause proposals until

Christmas when work wrapped up.

When she opened the door, she spotted Elowyn waiting outside, smiling gently at Quinlyn. “Finished? Let's eat

New Year's dinner together.”

Quinlyn realized it was dark outside. She hadn't left her room in a week.

At eight-thirty, everyone was downstairs waiting for her; they hadn't started eating.

Feeling guilty, she said, “Sorry, Elowyn.“We had planned to decorate the house together,’ she thought.

“Don’t say such silly things! You have no idea how happy | am,” Elowyn said, eyes misty but smiling.

“You're saving many people-women and children trapped in domestic struggles. If only the laws could be

enacted sooner, their suffering could end earlier.”

said, gently pulling her downstairs.

This was the most lively New Year's dinner the Wilson family had, with not only the An family present but also

Chester and the James father-daughter duo.

“Oh my! This big table is finally full! | hope we can do this every year,” Elowyn cheerfully welcomed everyone to

start eating.

appetite had increased significantly.

When she reached her third bowl, Joseph and Stanley stopped her from both sides.

“Aren’t you afraid you'll burst? Go play for a bit; you can eat more later. | bought fireworks, con!” Stanley

urged Quinlyn outside.

Rubbing her belly, Quinlyn realized she hadn't eaten enough. Luckily, Chester slipped her a handful of newly

developed candies, so she bundled up and stepped out.

Frank was now working with his brother Chester, and the pair was excitedly starting their business, benefiting

from Claude’s investment and improving their lives.

Quinlyn thought the fireworks were just sparklers but was shocked when a bunch of rich kids drove up in big

SUVs, wheeling in boxes of fireworks.

Leading them was Larry, so the display was bound to be grand. “Wait up, I'll call Cher and Zane to cjoin the

fun!”
