The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 679

Chapter 679: Chapter 679: Collective Suicide Three Days Later

Elias Quinn, a computer science student at Sea University.

Average grades, average looks, ordinary background.

He’s so unremarkable that it’s easy to overlook him at first glance.

When Scarlett Jennings first saw him, she didn’t sense anything unusual about his soul.

But that’s understandable.

According to the system, once a soul from the Otherworld fully merges with a body, not even a Master can detect anything abnormal.

Just like when she first saw Alicia Sharp, she never thought she was reborn.

Yet, for some reason, the person in front of her gave her a different feeling.

"I know you, you’re Scarlett Jennings, right?"

Elias Quinn seemed honest, but there was a glimmer in his eyes when he looked at her.

Just like those enthusiastic students she had encountered before,

"Can I take a picture with you?"

It was a usual request, one that Scarlett had agreed to before, but this time she didn’t respond immediately. Instead, she took out her phone and pulled up a screenshot.

"I came to find you mainly to ask about this."

What Scarlett showed him was the latest screenshot of the message he had sent to her, taken by Abigail Bryant.

"This is what you sent to Abigail Bryant, saying that three days later, there will be a mass student suicide incident on the Sea University campus. Can you tell me more about this?"

Adam Jennings, who had been listening casually next to her, suddenly turned his head towards Scarlett with a start upon hearing this news.

She had just mentioned coming to find someone but hadn’t said anything about such a matter.

Moreover, how does this guy named Elias Quinn know about something happening in three days?

His mind was racing, but he knew Scarlett wasn’t one to speak without reason, so he chose to remain silent and listen.

Elias didn’t seem too surprised when Scarlett showed him the screenshot.

Instead, he lowered his gaze slightly, as if he had anticipated it,

"I know you’re someone with skills. If you’re willing to get involved in this matter, I think you might be able to prevent the tragedy."

He spoke with a hint of self-mockery,

"Back then, I asked Abigail Bryant to write these yet-to-happen things into a novel, hoping that one day someone would take notice and take my words seriously."

Just as Scarlett suspected, Elias indeed was reborn from the Otherworld.

But unlike Alicia Sharp, he had no regrets from the past.

If this world was a novel, then he would be the most ordinary NPC in it.

A mundane life, a family neither too happy nor too cold, living step by step from childhood to adulthood.

He hadn’t faced any significant hardships, only trivial disputes; there was no change before and after his rebirth.

But he felt that since he was reborn, he should do something.

So he recalled all the social incidents that might occur at all the pivotal moments he could remember and tried to tell everyone about them.

His hope was that someone could prevent all of them from happening.

After all, he was just an ordinary person, not some savior.

"Regarding the mass student suicide, I don’t know much because, in my previous life, the police didn’t report the final investigation results. Some online speculated it might be related to campus loans, but there’s no conclusion."

To put it simply, this incident was also an unresolved case in the Otherworld.

"There were as many as eight people who jumped at the time, not simultaneously at one location but scattered across different dormitories, teaching buildings, and laboratory buildings, all at the same time, as if it had been planned."

The event was a sensational one back then because several buildings had deaths, causing panic among the students and severely damaging Sea University’s reputation.

"I only understood it online at the time, but since the police didn’t report specific names, I don’t even know who the eight people are specifically..."

Adam Jennings listened to Elias describing the situation, but upon hearing this point, he couldn’t help but speak,

"Wait a second, are you saying that besides knowing it’s three days later, you don’t know who is planning to jump, why they’re jumping, the exact locations, or even the precise timing...
