A classmate expressed his dissatisfaction loudly.

"So what? Why do we care anything about evidence? Let me outta here. I got things to do."

“Right! You're so weird!" another classmate shouted.

Putting the computer on the podium, Erica said loudly, “I'm going to clear my name. I don't want people dragging my name through the dirt! I didn't hand in Aaron's photos, and my work was stolen. I can prove it now! Listen up, okay?"

The people who were protesting all fell silent. They knew Erica was right. They would spread it about, Like any other rumor. After all, it was related to Mrs. Hilton, and she was a person of interest.

Erica turned to Professor Faulkner and threatened him.

"Professor

Faulkner, you're our teacher. Because of this, you're responsible to the students. You could have shut this down, and you didn't. If I can't get this matter resolved right now, I'll have to report you."

She was right. The teacher couldn't sit by and watch something Like that go down without stepping in. Professor Faulkner opened his mouth but had nothing to say back. Finally, he had to say, “Erica, if you have evidence, show it to us, then."

Then he raised his hand to the students who had stood up and said, "Sit down, class. This should be educational. Please be patient."

With Professor Faulkner's help, Erica plugged in her laptop, and connected her HDMI cable to the big screen. Sheffield was controlling the computer remotely, and all the photos on the computer and camera had been restored.

Erica opened the first photo she took. It was about nine o'clock yesterday morning.

The caption on the photo also included the model of the camera she was using, the Tl4 by Blue Sky Technology.

And the email she sent Luther was also restored. That was time stamped at two o'clock in the afternoon.

She then opened the original pictures Kaitlyn shot. The first one was three twenty in the afternoon, and the time gap was enough for Kaitlyn and Luther to arrive at Archaic Street to take photos.

After that, Erica asked Kaitlyn when she emailed Luther, but Kaitlyn refused, "I didn't bring my computer with me."

Erica wasn't going to give up.

"You mean you can't get email on your phone? Come on, who doesn't do that?"

Knowing she was going to be found out, Kaitlyn bit her lower lip and told Erica, "Sorry, I wasn't thinking clearly. I saw your homework on

Luther's screen once. I'm not as smart as you, so I came up with this idea..."

When Erica released a slew of evidence to prove her innocence, everyone basically knew that she was in the clear. But still, when they heard

Kaitlyn admit it herself, they couldn't control themselves. The noise level in the room had gotten pretty bad.

Hearing the accusations leveled against Kaitlyn and Luther, Erica finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She looked at Professor Faulkner and asked, “Professor, I have a question. Now that we know what he was up to, can you really say Luther is the best guy for class monitor? I think we need a better role model to represent our class."

Someone immediately seconded, "Yeah, teach. I totally agree. He shouldn't have done that. We need someone else. Lucky for us, Erica's smart and knows some pretty good people. I don't think we'd be able to dodge the bullet if they decided to frame us."
