Second Chances Protecting Mrs. Hall

Chapter 154
'It would be great if I could see photos of Dummy participating in the competition, Emma thought.
1.a
Dummy was a top student at Charon Military School. Years ago, she represented
Charon in the Krot Competition, a global trainee event, also where she died.
It wasn't hard for Emma to sneak into the archives. With a steel wire, she easily unlocked the door.
The school archives were not secretive and were only accessible to the public during important events. Typically, students did not have the opportunity to enter the school archives.
Upon entering, Emma noticed a display of photography materials on the wall. It showcased the school's history, interviews with past outstanding students, and interviews with students who had won international competitions.
Dummy had hoped to win the Krot Competition's championship but tragically died of a heart attack while crossing the low pile net, missing the opportunity to be the champion.
After Justine's death, the school did not make this matter public. All information about her was slowly removed. Emma did not find Justine's interview on the wall, but she saw her in a photo.
It was a group photo taken many years ago on Justine's first day of school. The photo of Justine's Class was not on display. However, Emma saw a blurry figure in front of the camera.
No one else could recognize the bright smile and fair skin, but Emma, who had gone through life and death with her, immediately knew she was Justine. 'My Dummy!' she thought.
Seeing Justine's photo, even if it was just a blurry shadow, caused Emma's mood to fluctuate greatly.
Her eyes were slightly red, and her slender hand trembled as she slowly approached, longing to touch the face she
had missed so much.
At this moment, a strong voice came from outside the door. "Who's there!" Emma quickly pulled back her hand before touching Justine's face. She swiftly turned around and leaped out of the window, effortlessly climbing up a large tree outside.
Leaves are the perfect hiding place,
She believed that by doing this, she could easily evade the person who found out about her. However, the person's skills were just as good as hers!
The man followed her footsteps, broke out of the window, and climbed up the
tree.

Chapter 154
Emma hurriedly ran, but the man closely pursued her. She soon realized that his skills matched hers!
She gritted her teeth. Just as she was about to jump down from a steep slope to escape, the guy suddenly called
out, "Emma?"
Emma was also stunned when she heard that.
The way he called her reminded her of Liam and Sean, and she inexplicably recalled the letter Richard had recently
written to her.
Emma stopped, and so did the guy.
A tall and handsome man in black military boots slowly walked towards her through the branches of the ancient
tree.
Emma gazed at him. His eyes reminded her of her eldest uncle. She called out skeptically, "Uncle Richard?"
When Richard heard her call him uncle, he immediately beamed with joy. "Yes! It's me!"
Emma also laughed out loud! She finally met her second uncle! She didn't expect it to be this way!
There were not many people who could catch up to her speed, and Richard was
one.
Luckily, it was Richard who caught her tonight. If it was someone else, she would be expelled from Charon, and she wouldn't be able to find the truth of Dummy's death.
"But, Emma, what are you doing here so late at night?"
Emma trusted her uncle, as she knew in her past life that there were only her four uncles and Liam would never
abandon her.
So, she told Richard why she had come to Charon, which was to uncover the truth behind Justine's death.
After Richard heard this, not only did he not deny her actions, he was even very sure of her. "Good girl. We are
proud of you."
Richard, being a military member, naturally admired Emma's loyal character.
"I have friends in the international sporting circle. Although the participant list and competition records of every Krot Competition are not publicly available, I can try to ask them for you," he said.
"Really?" Emma's eyes sparkled. "It would be great if you could help me, uncle!" "Don't worry," Richard reassured her, gazing at her with love. A hint of sadness
flickered in his eyes.

As a soldier, he had official duties and couldn't prevent Stella from taking her own life. Despite his pride, this was the greatest pain of his life.
He decided to compensate his niece double for their incomplete kinship. "I don't plan to get married and have children in this lifetime. I simply want to serve our country. Starting today, you are my daughter," he declared.
Emma looked at Richard and felt touched!
Richard was older than Sean but only in his thirties. He was too young to be her
father. However, when he spoke
those words, Emma, who had never felt fatherly love, felt touched.
"Thank you, Uncle Richard!" Emma said.
"Go back, get some rest, and stay focused on your training!" Richard said.
"Yes!" Emma replied.
No one else besides Richard knew about what happened in the school archives.
With Richard's help, Emma once again devoted herself to training.
In the evening, after the tiring training session, Emma walked to the mailroom at
the school gate to pick up the
package.
Ida's local specialties had arrived. Emma suddenly saw a familiar figure in the
mailroom. It was Riley.
Emma was uncertain about how much Riley had overheard from her phone call with Josiah that day. If Riley heard everything, things could become complicated.
Riley had obviously seen her too.
The two of them looked at each other, and the atmosphere was a little strange. At this moment, one of Riley's best friends stood up and exclaimed, "Hey, I was wondering who it was. So it's you, our champion! I was really worried when you almost fell off the bridge, but you handled it well. The way you stood on one leg
was very impressive."
Emma could tell that the girl was being sarcastic. During that time, rumors circulated at Charon Military School suggesting that
Emma had purposely gone easy on Riley that day to surpass her more gracefully
later on.
Of course, Emma's skill was unquestionable, so these people created such
rumors to attack her.
Emma ignored her and walked around to look for the package.
Chapter 154 "Can't you hear me? are you deaf?" Before that person could finish speaking,
she suddenly screamed!
Emma held a military saber, pointing the handle at the woman. Her presence was
commanding as she warned, "If you want to keep your tongue, stay quiet!"
