The Dean Hua mentioned by Peeling is one of the two deans who defected.
It was right before the catastrophe arrived that he revealed his intentions, noticed by Cheng Jing.
No one really suspected these two before.
Especially Dean Hua, who was merely an acquaintance of the former Dean Wu, with hardly any interaction.
He was the kind of dean captivated by his own world to the point of neglect, not even participating in duties.
Such people are actually the most numerous.
The projects he studied weren't sensitive; they were all projects open for students, with little danger involved.
The Langya Institute faced numerous incidents, none of which involved him.
But this time, before the catastrophe struck, Dean Hua was the most decisive, defecting without waiting for the Langya Institute's official declaration to leave or seek refuge.
Subsequent events didn't spiral out of control, nor did they become widely known.
