He puffed away, relaxed as could be.
“Walsh, honestly–what are you panicking for? She already said Ena will come back on her own in a couple of days. Did you hit her again? Is that why she doesn’t want to go home?
“How can you keep laying hands on your kid every day? That’s wrong. She’s grown. You don’t hit her anymore.”
The mayor went on and on after that.
Every word was a lecture aimed straight at Walsh.
Somehow, his attitude flipped completely–now, he was speaking for Scarlett.
The townsfolk around them nodded along, murmuring agreement.
Walsh, the mayor’s right. They just like Ena and want to keep her around a couple more days. And look at hat medical skill–ridiculous. If Ena learns even one or two things from a medical prodigy, who benefits In the end? Our whole town.”
Walsh blurted, “Weren’t you all saying we should drive outsiders out? What if they came here to steal our kids?“,
The townsfolk frowned. “Someone like her? Why would a medical prodigy steal kids from our town? With
kills like that, her status outside has to be high. Snatching children would be insane.”

This wasn’t what you were saying earlier.
Before this, everyone had been talking about how outsiders had no business meddling here–how they night be here to traffic children–and how they should be kicked out.

[Bro, aren’t you ScriptGuy? I recognize your ID. What, no “scripted” now? Switching to “unlicensed” slander? In an emergency, that’s not illegal, you clown.]
[Here–go read the law. On–site emergency rescue isn’t an illegal practice.
Finished
[Idiot. If you can save someone in that situation and you don’t, that’s just cold–blooded.]
This time, ScriptGuy got absolutely cooked.
The whole chat piled on.
He didn’t dare show his face again.
Scarlett took Ena and headed back to the school building with the other guests and staff.
On the way out. Carina’s mother–in–law pressed gifts into Scarlett’s hands.
Homegrown vegetables, potatoes, dried noodles, and a thick slab of pork belly.
Back at the building, Brianna and Zayden seemed to have just returned, too.
Both of them were covered in mud.
Brianna’s eyes were red–she’d been crying. Zayden’s face looked grim.
Seeing them like that, Selina muttered under her breath.
What happened to them?”
Scarlett, Selina, the other guests–and the viewers–were all curious what disaster had hit them on the way
Jack.
So, people jumped into their livestream. Two minutes later, they came right back.
I’m dead. Now I know what happened–Zayden is so unlucky it’s unreal.]
What happened to Brianna and Zayden on the way back?] Some viewers hadn’t switched streams and still didn’t know.
It wasn’t even that big of a deal They ran into a cow on the way back. It was lying in a mud pit totally chill -then it saw Zayden and suddenly charged.
