Stronger Every Time I Die
As Arthur approached Finley, he paused intentionally to let Finley see more clearly. His voice, clear and striking, made everyone's scalp tingle. "Ladies and gentlemen, do you doubt that the video I showed earlier was fake? Well, let me show you just how real my videos are!" Everyone at the scene, including Hugo, Mateo, and Taylor, were profoundly shocked by Arthur! Inside his jacket, unbelievably, were countless pinhole cameras! These cameras, blending seamlessly with his black suit, had been recording everything happening outside. Without the faint glow of their lights and unless one looked closely, they were utterly undetectable! Arthur picked up his phone again and casually opened another video. Instantly, the footage from that angle appeared on the big screen! At that moment, Finley's face was paler than a ghost who had been dead for three days; his throat was so dry he couldn't make a sound. His limbs were stiff and numb, as if they no longer obeyed his commands, and he didn't even know how to react or what expression to make! And Kent, he had already collapsed to the ground in disbelief. How could this happen! Oh my god! How could this be! But Arthur didn't give them much time to react. He casually opened the video of the moment Kent fell near him and fast-forwarded to that exact moment. Suddenly, the footage shot from another angle displayed on the big screen. There was Kent, sneaking around by Arthur’s side, clutching something tightly in his hand. It was then Kent suddenly fell near Arthur. At that moment. The hand Kent was clutching reached towards Arthur's pocket! Again, a flash of light, the same familiar blue. Only this time, the footage from this angle was much clearer! It was Finley’s ring! The unique pale blue sheen, the size, it matched exactly the ring that Arthur was holding in his other hand! Following that, Arthur pulled up footage from dozens of micro-cameras capturing that moment. It was a comprehensive coverage, catching every angle, and where the details weren't clear, Arthur replayed the footage repeatedly! He made sure everyone saw everything clearly, not missing a single detail! Even Kent’s eye movements, facial expressions, and every detail of his body language were captured clearly! After watching for several hours, everyone at the venue was numbed.Due to the repeated playback of similar footage from the same location, their minds were now filled with images of Kent sneaking around, falling, and then secretly placing the ring into Arthur’s pocket. The venue fell into an eerie silence, as people no longer knew what to say. They had never imagined that the outcome would be like this! Even though many had suspected something was off with Finley and that Arthur was being framed, no one expected the truth to be revealed in such a clear manner! Yes, so clear, unbelievably clear, so clear that they felt they would dream of these repeatedly viewed images tonight. These were clearer than if they had seen it in person—infinitely clearer! They were truly stunned. After all, who would come to a welcome party rigged with pinhole cameras all over themselves? Is he here for a party, or Is he on a spy mission? Suddenly a thought flashed through their minds, if Arthur became a journalist, he would definitely be sensational! Hugo was so shocked he didn't know what to say. Before this, he had even planned to use his connections to pull Arthur out of this mess. Taylor had even prepared himself to go to jail with Arthur, feeling responsible for Arthur’s predicament and wanting to keep him company. Mateo had been brainstorming how to clear Arthur’s name, not just to save him but also to preserve the reputation of Governance University and their patron, Hugo. Sage had been ready at the door, with his thesis ideas all planned out, intending to use his pen to the fullest to save Arthur. But they had never imagined they would learn the truth and touch Arthur's crisis in such a clear way! After a while, Hugo finally managed to say, “Arthur, you are amazing!” Hearing this, Arthur almost burst out laughing!
