In which Badger...
- Talks to the Chief Librarian of the Chala Opium School, who complains about the school going through hard times because it is under scrutiny, blamed for a string of deaths at rival Lotus Flora Academy.
- Offers to investigate the murders for a fee, which he is granted.
- Visits the Lotus Flora Academy, where he discovers the killings had started just a few days ago, with the individuals being brutally mauled and there being significant property vandalism.
- Discovers a Chala Opium School uniform, torn on the floor - but realizes it looks planted.
- Tries to talk to students or investigate for more clues but finds nothing.
- Stakes out the school at night, waiting to see if someone arrives.
- Starts to nod off when someone strikes a blow to the back of his head and he's knocked out cold.
- Wakes up in a basement, tied to a chair by a harried looking man in spectacles.
- Learns the man is an admissions counselor for the Lotus Flora Academy named Kanar, whose job is under threat due to the popularity of the more profitable venture of Opium farming causing more admissions heading to the Chala Opium School.
- Discovers the killings are a plot to bring down Chala Opium School by draining its funds in a murder investigation so that the Lotus Flora Academy has no more competition, thus increasing admissions.
- Waits till Kanar leaves before tipping the chair and dragging himself to the Rope of Climb.
- Commands the rope of climb to knot him and crawl up to the rafters, allowing him to rise up and then fall smashing the chair he's tied to into smithereens.
- Rushes to stop Kanar from killing the next student, fighting him and killing him in the process.
- Has the student the late Kanar was attacking provide proof as he reveals the plot to the heads of the schools.
- Takes his pay and his leave as he goes to rest healing up from his wounds for another week at the tea house.
