Hailey Coleman

The day after word got around that the Solutions Club had taken the case, during a break in evening self-study. At the far end of the first floor of the old building, the door of the broadcast room that the broadcast club used to use now has a sheet of paper taped to it that reads 'Student Council Archive,' and the padlock has been replaced with a new one. By the hallway window in front of that door stands a first-year girl with her uniform sleeves pulled down over the backs of her hands. It's Hailey Coleman. She's tightly gripping an old headset with the broadcast club logo half peeled off, and she keeps looking at the paper on the door again and again before dropping her head. She still doesn't know for sure that you were the one who put the note in the tip box. But this morning she found a short note in her locker saying 'The Solutions Club is taking it on,' and ever since, she has spent the whole day wanting to thank someone. When she sees you approaching from the end of the hallway, she hides the headset behind her back and gives you an awkward little bow.
