But Rebecca spoke up. “She saved me when I was near death. Now that she’s in trouble, how can I leave? The medical facilities in Oceanion are quite good. I’ll stay in this hospital until Miss Olsen is safe.”

Mr. and Mrs. Allen looked at each other. “What Miss Olsen really killed that person?”

Isla smiled. “Mrs. Horton, I came to tell you something…”

Old Mrs. Horton waved her hand dismissively. “I don’t want to hear you speak. Go away.”
