Yet Audrey was doing everything in her power to push Maeve out, all over petty romantic jealousy.
It seemed that for some women, dignity and reason vanished the moment emotions got involved.
Simon stayed out of the discussion entirely.
He kept his gaze fixed on Maeve.
Ever since her first trial, her emotional composure had been unshakable.
It was as if she could effortlessly brush off any setback.
Even with her winning ticket dead ahead of schedule, she didn't throw a fit or hysterically accuse the room.
She had merely requested a simple condition: an autopsy.
That kind of grace and sheer nerve was hardly something you'd expect from a twenty-year-old girl.
Across the room, Maeve suddenly looked up from the table.
"The results are in. Stetson Woods was intentionally murdered."
The group immediately crowded around.
Staring at the exposed internal organs, Connor gasped.
"What happened? Why is the tissue damage so severe?"
Audrey thought Connor was making a mountain out of a molehill.
"Did you forget that before she took over, his organs were already failing?"
"A critically ill patient in a deep coma waking up miraculously after being given special drugs is inherently suspicious."
She turned to glare at Maeve.
"I have every reason to suspect that this massive internal trauma is a direct result of the medication you pumped into him."
"Excessive use of certain hormonal drugs can trigger a horrific backlash."
"You're accusing someone else of murder, Maeve, but have you considered that you might be the killer?"
Audrey's deduction quickly earned nods of agreement from the crowd.
The sight of their shared understanding made Audrey bristle.
"What kind of absurd theory is that?"
Maeve's gaze swept across the room.
"There's no external trauma, yet the autopsy reveals massive rupturing across multiple internal organs."
"Based on these findings, the only thing capable of inflicting this kind of damage on a human body is an infrasound wave below twenty hertz."
Finally, her eyes locked onto Audrey.
"The natural frequency of human organs ranges from three to seventeen hertz. The head is eight to twelve, and the abdominal organs are four to six."
"When an infrasonic wave hits the resonant frequency of those organs, it triggers dysfunction, a severe spike in blood pressure, and ruptured blood vessels."
"If the wave penetrates the body and resonates with the heart, it perfectly mimics a myocardial infarction without an autopsy."
"I'm sure anyone qualified to work at Lab C is familiar with the concept of infrasonic weaponry."
"A highly intelligent killer can use low-frequency sound waves to execute a target without ever laying a finger on them."
