Chapter 589 The Truth

After Catherine finished the final step of her calculation, she stood up and then approached these experts.

She glanced at the screen. As she watched the lines of code rapidly flickering, her mind processed the entire program in mere seconds. “Let me give it a try.”

Although her cold voice was not loud, it broke the quiet and tense atmosphere of the lab abruptly.

Instantly, everyone looked at Catherine, making her the center of focus.

Marshall hesitated and stared at Catherine. Although he didn’t know her too well, he believed Catherine wouldn’t make such a request without reason.

As Marshall pondered, one of the students who had been quietly discussing earlier stepped forward.

It was Brodie, who had clashed with Catherine before.

“Catherine, seeking the spotlight has its timing. What’s the point of causing a scene now?” Brodie confidently remarked, “Don’t you know time is more valuable than everything else? Is your expertise truly superior to these experts’?”

His voice reverberated through the entire lab, causing mixed expressions among the onlookers.

Many felt Brodie had a point. After all, these were among the best computer science experts at Styre University, top- notch across the country, while Catherine was just a freshman.

Facing Brodie’s challenge, Catherine glanced coldly at him. Her tone, though calm, held immense authority as she retorted, “Quiet down for a moment. No one is treating you like a mute.”

Brodie was infuriated. He pointed at Catherine and said to Marshall, Professor Hartley, see this. Catherine’s always this arrogant. Her attitude isn’t suitable for a research scientist.”

He aimed to reveal Catherine’s true nature to Marshall and ideally have her expelled from the lab.

Marshall looked at Catherine. Watching her composed demeanor, Marshall decided to take a risk.

He reached out and tapped the man still engrossed at the computer in front. “Winston, step aside. Let my student give it a try.”

Marshall’s words stunned everyone around, particularly Brodie. He didn’t expect Marshall to show such favoritism toward Catherine.

Incredulously, Brodie exclaimed, ” Professor Hartley, this is…”

“What is it?” Marshall shot him a cold 11 glance and rebuked in a hushed tone, ” Do I need you to teach me how to handle things?”

Hearing that, Brodie shivered and silently refrained from speaking further.

The person Marshall had called was a guest professor from Styre University’s computer science department. He was almost equal in status to Marshall, and the two of them were friends.

Understanding Marshall’s character, Winston didn’t hesitate and stood up.

He rose and gestured for Catherine to take the vacant spot. He smiled lightly and said, “Come on, freshman.”

Without hesitation, Catherine took her seat.

The moment Catherine sat down, her hands swiftly landed on the keyboard.

Her slender and graceful fingers moved across the square keys and danced swiftly.

As lines of code appeared on the screen, Winston, who had been spectating, turned increasingly serious.

Incredulously, he leaned closer and stared at the screen. He murmured, ” How is this possible? How?”

Hearing his voice, Marshall grew curious. “Winston, what do you mean?”

Winston turned to Marshall and asked with a grave expression, “Where did you find this gem? Take me there to dig a bit.”

Marshall smiled and was about to respond, but Catherine abruptly stopped and said coldly, “Done!”

Before anyone could comprehend, a lab researcher exclaimed in delight, “It’s done. My computer’s fixed!”

Others hurried to check their computers, and all were fixed too. Amelia rushed forward and found that even her computer was fixed and back to normal operation.

“Catherine, you’re incredible!”

As Brodie looked at his now functional computer, he was stunned and disbelieved in Catherine’s abilities.

After pondering, upon seeing Catherine’s computer, he found his answer.

The next moment, Brodie shouted angrily, “Catherine, you’re despicable! You actually use this method to boost yourself. Do you realize you’ve endangered the entire lab?”

Hearing this accusation, Catherine turned her head toward Brodie and frowned.

She coldly asked, “Why this intense desire for theatrics? Staying in this lab seems beneath you. You should aim to show business and bring glory to our country.”

The people around chuckled at Catherine’s response.

Amelia rarely witnessed Catherine’s humor and burst out laughing. Facing everyone’s laughter, Brodie felt embarrassed and redirected his accusation toward Catherine.

“Catherine, you’re the one skilled at acting. This whole incident was orchestrated by you. You created the virus, damaged these computers, and then repaired them. Do you think no one would notice?” Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ ꜰindNʘvel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Marshall looked at Brodie with a gloomy expression. “What are you implying? What do you mean by’ orchestrated’? Do you have evidence?”

“I do, Professor Hartley!” Brodie confidently stated and then walked to Catherine’s computer. “Catherine, your methods are impressive, but even the most meticulous plans slip up!”

Catherine crossed her arms and gazed at Brodie with curiosity. “Do you think you are Holmes?”

“Stop trying to justify yourself!” Brodie struck a righteous pose. “Let me ask you. Why did every computer get infected except yours? If this isn’t your doing, how is it so coincidental? Even Professor Warner couldn’t crack the virus. As a freshman, you actually managed to crack it.”

As Brodie spoke, everyone’s attention shifted to Catherine’s computer. Its screen was still on and displayed the document she had been working on.

The document was written during the virus attack. It proved Brodie wasn’t lying, and Catherine’s computer had indeed remained unscathed.

Combined with Catherine’s extraordinary abilities, the perception of her among the group instantly shifted.

Realizing this, Brodie turned to Marshall and shouted, “Professor Hartley, please give us the truth!”
