472 The Full Picture
Lana bristled, and her eyes widened at whatever sudden memory crossed her mind.
Wynter continued, “Because the case details didn’t quite add up, there were rumors that the couple
found raising twin daughters burdensome in light of the birth of their son.
“That was never verified, of course. But after the incident, the couple fled town with their son, citing
privacy concerns.
“The strange thing was, the father refused a post–mortem for his daughters, and the mother didn’t want
to talk about the incident. No other details of note came to light, save that the couple got quite a hefty
amount in compensation from the washing machine’s manufacturer,
“The manufacturer tried to reenact the incident and concluded that two grown children couldn’t fall into
the washing machine simultaneously. I’m sure you’ve recalled the truth by now.”
Lana was shaking after hearing Wynter piece the story together. An accidental death could not result in
such a terrible grudge on the children’s part, and Wynter did not believe in coincidences.
She had noticed the Earthbound Formation the moment the show started filming, which could only
mean
one thing.
“Your father is among us today,” Wynter declared as she glanced at the shadows behind Lana. “Your
sister must have sensed his presence today, hence her anguish.”
The audience could not see the shadow, which was why they were bewildered by Wynter’s statement.
*Sister?” someone asked in the comments
Another viewer summarized, “Number five just said the twins didn’t fall into the washing machine by
accident, which means their father…”
At once, the comment section fell silent. After all, the story was never verified.
Just as the audience thought story time was over, Wynter handed Lana a photograph she had found.
Even though you were twins, your sister was malnourished since birth.
“She didn’t care that her parents didn’t love her because she knew you would always stand by her,
which was why she would look at you in pictures.”
Lana took the photograph and stared at it with red–rimmed eyes. “Yes. My sister was always an angel.
She didn’t eat much at meals, either.”
“Let’s go,” Lana’s reflection suddenly urged. “We can’t touch him! If we do, you won’t be able to go to
your new family.”
Lana gritted her teeth. “Then so be it! Who cares about being reborn anyway?”
“Please,” her reflection begged, lowering her gaze. “We forgot what he looked like because we were
terrified of him. There was nothing we could have done.”

At this, the audience felt their hearts wrench over the twins‘ tragedy. They had seen the twins‘
photograph. They were an adorable pair.
The younger twin stared at her older sister in adoration, a coy smile on her lips. The older twin stared
into the camera, beaming as she put up her index and middle fingers in a peace sign while holding her
sister’s hand.
It was a normal enough photograph. But what was infuriating was how they did not have individual
portraits, unlike other children.
Even the photograph depicted the younger sister in crumpled clothes like she had been hastily dressed
for an unplanned photoshoot.
It was hard to imagine that these incidents could occur in this time and age.
But as reality would have it, some grown–ups still thought of their children as stepping stones. Others
simply favored sons over daughters to the point of madness,
The article in the newspaper was receiving more attention than it ever had.
Although the audience did not understand the full story, at least not enough to determine its truth, they
understood how much women suffered since the moment they were born.
As such, compassion and righteousness seized the audience as they took to the comment section
once
more.
“Number five said one of the guests is responsible for the twins‘ tragedy! Which one is he? Show us the
inhumane bastard!”
