Elyse turned to Vicky with a nod. The girl’s chance to compete was gone, and even if the organizers gave her another shot, it would only be in the Comeback Competition—a mere consolation.

“The person who locked the door from the outside this time is probably the same one who sabotaged the contestants’ violins last time,” Vicky speculated, her tone serious. “If the culprit is one of us contestants, their fate will be grim.”

Elyse sighed deeply. “If it really was a contestant, why would they do something so self-destructive? It’s just not worth it.”
