Shen Bai raised an eyebrow. "If that's the case, then everything makes sense."
A look of confusion appeared on Feng Zheng's face.
Shen Bai continued, "Lord Feng, and everyone else, you've focused all your attention on the exam participants. Naturally, you couldn't have paid attention to your own people—for example, the Observatory members maintaining order. It's very likely the real mole is among them."
Feng Zheng's brow furrowed even deeper. "But then how did that strange incident happen during the first stage?"
Shen Bai said, "As the ones responsible for maintaining order, they might have had a way to pull something off while on duty. After all, once we knew there was a mole, everyone's eyes were fixed on the exam participants."
With Shen Bai's explanation, many things started to fall into place.
Feng Zheng's head snapped up. "Who was the one that came to call for Lord Shen?"
Shen Bai's gaze swept over the numerous Observatory members.
