Schiller did not approve of dismantling the Blue Beetle for investigation.
As a teacher, Schiller understood that the first Blue Beetle had given this thing to Ted not only to strengthen Ted's abilities, but also because he believed the student he had taught could manage such a dangerous item and use it to benefit society. It was not only a gift, but also a responsibility.
Destroying it would certainly solve the problem once and for all, but it would naturally be better to keep such a powerful force in the hands of their own people.
The Blue Beetle's abilities were especially well-rounded, with almost no weaknesses. Ted was still too young and somewhat reckless, but he had good character. Given time, he could become an outstanding superhero. It truly would be a shame to give up on him like this.
It was unwise to kill the goose that laid the golden eggs whenever a crisis arose.
So now, what The Truth actually was did not matter. The key was to come up with an explanation that convinced everyone—one that could explain how Bonu had been killed while clearing Zan's name, thereby easing the conflict.
Schiller looked at Zan and said, "Start by telling us what happened to you. You must tell the truth. Don't hide anything. Just state the facts, without adding your own speculation."
At that moment, Jena reached through the bars and took her brother's hand. "Don't worry, brother. As long as I'm here, no one can falsely accuse you."
Jena seemed to have said more through telepathy. Zan barely steadied himself, took a deep breath, and began recounting what had happened to him.
There was nothing wrong with the timeline established through the security footage. Zan had indeed been the last one to arrive on that floor.
