George easily agreed to Quintis' request. Since he needed to attend a meeting, Quintis did not join Emily when she drove over to Alnewgo University. She was determined to unravel the mystery of the situation with her own hands.
When she arrived at the university, Emily was warmly welcomed by the staff with open arms. George had initially planned to accompany Emily to the infirmary himself, but Emily had rejected his offer. With Laura by her side, Emily made her way toward the infirmary that was bustling with activity.
Emily requested the infirmary supervisor to show her the surveillance tapes. After being given permission, the supervisor did as Emily asked and pulled up the tapes.
Fortunately, although there weren't many cameras in the infirmary itself, there were cameras installed in the corridors of every level of the building. The recordings had also been saved.
The supervisor scanned through the recordings. After searching for a while, they stopped at a scene where a man dressed in black entered the infirmary. Not long after, the same man exited the infirmary and left the area.
The supervisor informed Emily, "This was the last student who participated in the blood test."
Emily nodded and asked softly, "Do you remember his name?"
"Vaguely. I think his last name was Holland," the supervisor answered.
Emily continued her line of questioning. "Can you recall his height and weight?"
"Hmm… He looked pretty average and had some acne on his face. His height is about five feet and two inches, not taller than five feet and five inches," the supervisor replied.
Emily pinned the supervisor with an unwavering stare. "Are you certain?"
