As graduation season approached, Capital Preparatory Academy had arranged numerous opportunities for its seniors.
Today’s event featured several high-achieving Capital University students answering questions through a live audio call.
No video.
Audio only.
Sophie Bennett sat beside Iris in the auditorium and stared at the dark projection
screen.
“The school is evil.”
She sighed dramatically.
“They invite talented upperclassmen to mentor us and won’t even let us see what they look like.”
Iris barely looked up from her phone.
“Weren’t you supposed to be at your tutoring session today?”
“Don’t remind me.” Sophie groaned. “The private tutor my dad hired got poached by someone offering double the rate. Now we’re searching for a replacement.”
They chatted idly until a burst of static came from the speakers.
Instantly, the auditorium fell silent.
A ringing tone echoed through the hall.
Then the first call connected.
“Hello, everyone.”

A warm, refined male voice filled the room.

“My name is Ethan Vaughn. I’m a sophomore in Capital University’s School of Fine Arts.”
Whispers immediately broke out among the girls.
“That voice is unfairly attractive.”
“I know who he is!”
“He graduated directly from Capital Preparatory Academy. Apparently he’s an incredible violinist.”
Iris frowned slightly.
The voice sounded familiar.
She just couldn’t place it.
Several students asked questions.
Ethan patiently answered every one.
Finally, he said,
“Before we finish, I’d like to play a game.”
The auditorium grew interested.
“A game?”
“What kind?”
Ethan smiled.
“I’ll randomly select a student.”
“I’ll give them a problem.”

“It’s something every Capital University freshman can solve.”
“If they answer correctly, they win.”
“If they lose, they must fulfill one request from the winner.”
Excitement spread through the hall.
This sounded far more entertaining than a normal Q&A session.
Ethan continued.
“For fairness, I’ll choose a random class and student number.”
Then he read the question.

“Two department stores independently decide whether to hold a daily sale.”
“The probability of either store holding a sale on any given operating day is one- half.”
“Store A operates seven days this week.”
“Store B operates six days and is closed one day.”
“What is the probability that Store A has more sale days than Store B during the week?”
The auditorium instantly fell silent.
Hundreds of students stared blankly ahead.
What kind of insane question was that?
Was this what Capital University considered easy?
Ethan pretended to think for a moment.
Then he announced the target he had already chosen in advance.

“Foundation Class.”
A small smile appeared on his face.
“Student number forty-one.”
Seat forty-one belonged to Iris Noir.

For a brief moment, she simply stared at the stage.
The odds of being selected by pure chance were practically nonexistent.
Clearly this wasn’t random.
On the other end of the call, Ethan was already smiling.
There was no way she could solve the problem.
Not after what she’d done to Olivia.
Then he delivered the real reason he’d come.
“If you can’t answer…”
His voice echoed through the speakers.

“I want you to call your sister, Olivia, in front of the entire school and apologize.”
The auditorium exploded.
Everyone instantly connected the dots.
The rumors from Kingsley.
Olivia Sutton.
The mayor’s son.
He hadn’t come here to mentor students.

He’d come to stand up for Olivia.
“Oh my God.”
“That’s actually kind of romantic.”
“Her boyfriend came all the way here to defend her.”

Several students turned around and looked at Iris with obvious schadenfreude.
One of them even muttered,
“Serves her right.”
Then, in the middle of the growing noise, Iris finally spoke.
Her voice was calm.
Matter-of-fact.
As if she were answering a question from a middle-school textbook.
“One-half.”
The entire auditorium froze.
Iris held the microphone loosely in one hand.
Her cool, clear voice echoed through the auditorium.
“One-half.”
The answer cut through the noise like a blade.
The hall, which had been buzzing moments earlier, instantly fell silent.
Then-
The room erupted.

“No way!”
“She actually solved it?”
“Wait, is that even the right answer?”
“What if she just guessed?”

On the other end of the call, Ethan Vaughn froze. He was still holding the sheet of paper containing the problem.
Below the detailed solution, the answer was written clearly:
1/2
His face stiffened.
How was that possible?
This wasn’t even high-school-level material.
Had she somehow guessed correctly?
The thought had barely crossed his mind before he blurted out: “How did you solve it?”
Iris leaned back in her seat.
“By introducing variables.”
Her tone was completely calm.
