The Solution... Mr. Green is Saul Sheen's
father; he and Miss McGowan had a relationship in college.
Miss McGowan has always kept it a secret but after the last argument with Saul she plans to tell him the truth.
She tells Mr. Green about her plan and they argue.
![Page 22: Whodunnit Murder in the Classroom](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042503/577cc2d01a28aba711948c59/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
The Solution... Louise King hears them. Mr. Green is furious and it is he
who follows Miss McGowan to the classroom and hits her over the head.
He wasn't in his office when everyone heard the scream, that's why when Saul Sheen knocked on the door he got no answer.
