On the third day, the county's decision came through.
Alexander Lee and Eleanor Smith both received a reprimand, which didn't have much effect. Matthew Carter was directly transferred to a department within the county to carry out duties.
Peter figured that someone influential must have pulled strings for Matthew behind the scenes.

After the incident, the ghost haunting became a major issue, while Matthew's use of sex workers turned into a minor one.
Upon learning the outcome, Peter was speechless. This situation made him realize once again that the significance of an incident depended on its context. Other events may overshadow what would normally be considered a major event, rendering it insignificant.
