Chapter Eight: Survive[]
Lisa Lavender reports on Roman Torchwick's activities after he robs the First Bank of Vale. She interviews Zhu, one of Roman's pickpocket victims who had his wallet replaced with a calling card. After questioning the criminal's motive and describing the aftermath, Lisa introduces Professor Ozpin, Beacon Academy's Headmaster, who comments on the crime and addresses Roman directly, warning him that Huntsmen would be watching for him. After Ozpin is finished speaking, Lisa wraps up the report on the robbery and begins talking about the fire at the Vanille Estate. The next morning, Lisa receives a bouquet of flowers, courtesy of Roman Torchwick.
Chapter Twenty-Five: Smoke and Mirrors[]
Lisa is contacted in the middle of the night by Roman Torchwick, who promises that he has an incredibly valuable scoop for her. After she sasses him to give the police time to trace the call, Roman reveals that Lady Browning's Preparatory Academy For Girls, in cooperation with Lil' Miss Malachite, had planted cameras inside of the triskelion pins adorned by students and graduates, prompting Lisa to throw away her own pin.[1] He offers to prove it by uploading the entirety of the spy network's footage directly to the Vale News Network, and Lisa gives him the login information to the network's server while thanking him for the flowers he'd sent her months earlier. With this information, Lisa is able to expose Beatrix Browning's misdeeds, which ruined the headmistress' career and forced Lil' Miss and Spider to retreat back to Mistral.
