Chapter 655: Chapter 66: Fa and Reputation_2
In an instant, everyone surged toward Elizabeth, surrounding her completely.
“Keep orderly, and I can accept your interview,” Elizabeth said.
Imdiately, all the journalists showed excited expressions. Princess Elizabeth was willing to comnt on the matter, which was absolutely a bombshell.
The guards had everyone step back to the bottom of the steps, then stood in front to block them, while Elizabeth stood alone on the steps, causing the people inside Lucas to turn pale.
But, who would dare to lay a hand on the Royal Family’s Princess?
“I will first answer the question you are most concerned about. I have seen the news from yesterday, and although the wording is quite aggressive, the news itself is true and indeed happened within Lucas University,” Elizabeth began.
In a mont, there was an uproar.
Princess Elizabeth personally admitting the authenticity of the news ant the school’s denials were aningless now, and moreover, no one dared to suppress Princess Elizabeth’s statents.
“Princess Elizabeth, what is your view on this matter?” a reporter excitedly asked.
“I am extrely disappointed with everything Lucas University has done,” Elizabeth stated bluntly, causing the reporters below to erupt, never expecting to get such substantial news from waiting here.
Elizabeth continued, “Lucas University, as the top institution of Lucas Star, and even within the Star System Alliance, draws students from all major planets of the Star System Alliance, providing talent for the entire star system, which is a proud matter. As a mber of the Lucas Star Royal Family, I have always been proud to be a student at Lucas University, but this ti, I feel disgraced.”
“This world cannot achieve absolute fairness, and privilege exists everywhere. I admit, I have also enjoyed so special treatnt at Lucas University, but I have never thought that this privilege could override the laws of Lucas Star.”
“No one has the privilege to commit cris, not even . If I commit a cri, the law will punish ,” Elizabeth said. “I had never thought that a prince from Baloma could act so arrogantly and blatantly at Lucas University, deliberately injuring soone in public, nearly killing them, trampling the law. The school did not involve law enforcent, and his punishnt was rely a verbal apology.”
“The injured person is Wal, a freshman at Lucas University from the chanical Departnt, a genius, only eighteen years old. He almost beca disabled and can only use a chanical body as a substitute. His father, the head of the chanical Departnt at Lucas University, has dedicated himself to Lucas University, but for this, he was forced to take up arms to seek justice himself. The sa event occurred; Nilo was only warned, but Professor Luke was taken away.”
“I cannot imagine this happening on the campus of Lucas University, and it makes feel disheartened. Such an incident occurring at our highest institution, Lucas University, is disgraceful for Lucas University and for every student. As a student at Lucas University, I apologize to Professor Luke and to all who have contributed to Lucas University.”
“I do not know what cooperation exists between Lucas University and the Baloma Kingdom, nor do I know if the Lucas Star Federation Governnt is involved, but whatever the cooperation is about, it’s no excuse for Nilo to do whatever he wants at Lucas University. I will keep an eye on how this matter is handled, and I believe that Lucas University will recognize its mistakes and treat Professor Luke fairly, giving an explanation to everyone concerned about this incident.”
Elizabeth continued, “Additionally, I will, in my capacity as the Roy…
Princess Elizabeth finished speaking, ignored the crowd’s reaction, and headed straight back into the school.
The journalists were boiling with excitent. Everything Elizabeth had just said was absolutely explosive and sure to ignite public opinion. With Princess Elizabeth personally discussing the matter, those wanting to suppress the news probably wouldn’t dare.
The students of Lucas University, too, had heard Elizabeth’s rousing speech. So even captured it, and cheers erupted sporadically. The students’ gaze at Elizabeth changed, filled with admiration and reverence.
This is the revered Princess of Lucas Star, so divinely beautiful.
Inside and outside of Lucas University, everything erupted, with public opinion boiling over.
Locking down Lucas University had beco pointless. With Elizabeth personally stepping forward for the interview, those words had thrust Lucas University right into the heart of the storm, making further suppression useless.
Public opinion could no longer be contained.
Within half a day, the speech video of Princess Elizabeth appeared on the screens of various major cities on the Lucas Star, playing on countless screens in the Lucas Star Capital.
The people watching the screens admired the noble Princess, their eyes reflecting admiration. The citizens of Lucas Star all knew of the Royal Princess Elizabeth and had seen so of her profile photos, but this was the first ti Princess Elizabeth had publicly spoken, truly appearing before all the people.
At this mont, everyone felt that Princess Elizabeth was both noble and approachable, as if she were very close to them.
“Princess Elizabeth is so beautiful,” a young person said.
“Yes, Princess Elizabeth is not even 20 years old,” countless people thought as they watched the screen, and for a mont, Elizabeth beca the most noticed person, voted the most beautiful woman on the Lucas Star by many organizations.
She beca famous overnight, although she was already well-known, this speech had elevated Elizabeth’s fa to another level.
Countless people stepped forward, calling on the governnt to thoroughly investigate the matter, to scrutinize the managent of Lucas University, and to loudly declare Lucas’s innocence.
Inside Lucas University, Elizabeth had also beco the most noticed star, with everyone discussing it.
Izekat and Carter were extrely shocked inside. They felt soone was guiding Elizabeth from behind, but who could it be?
Izekat and Carter also did not know about “the gentleman’s” existence, but they had a premonition that this matter might be related to Xu Mo, one link leading to another.
However, this incident had made Elizabeth famous, sothing they had never anticipated.
Wal, upon hearing about the incident, sought Elizabeth to thank her, not knowing that the real person who helped him was soone else.
In the library, Xu Mo seed unaffected, still quietly reading books as if the storm outside had nothing to do with him; he was just a librarian.
At that mont, Nan Xiangyi, carrying several books, walked over and sat opposite Xu Mo. Zero was not there.
Nan Xiangyi put down the books she was holding, then opened them as if she was seriously reading.
Xu Mo glanced at Nan Xiangyi and heard her softly ask, “Was it you?”
She was filled with curiosity about the matter; she had overheard the conversation between Xu Mo and Izekat the day before, and what followed had greatly shocked her, actually, it might turn the tables.
First, the battle of public opinion, then Princess Elizabeth stepped forward, and Lucas University instantly beca the center of the storm, criticized vehently.
A huge storm surged outside, but inside the library, it was calm, as if it were another world. Yet, Nan Xiangyi felt that the person behind the storm was sitting right across from her.
“Miss Nan Xiangyi, what are you talking about?” Xu Mo looked up, his smiling eyes eting Nan Xiangyi’s, pretending he ‘didn’t understand’.
Nan Xiangyi looked into Xu Mo’s deep eyes, feeling a slight stir in her heart. It seed that Xu Mo would not admit to it, and besides, they were not that close, having only talked a few tis, not even friends.
“It’s nothing, could you recomnd a few books?” Nan Xiangyi did not continue to press, and since Xu Mo didn’t want to talk about it, pressing further was pointless.
“Certainly,” Xu Mo nodded.
