Chapter 501: E
Dawn was prepared. He could have handled Simone on his own but he was going to take it anyhow.
The claw fell on his chest, and Simone’s fingers moved so fast that they tore through Dawn’s shirt. The young man leaned back to avoid the attack, but the claw still drew a faint trace of blood. Dawn let out a low shout, watching Simone still coming at him. He crossed his arm before his chest.
Simone hit him with a strong kick. Dawn could have withstood the attack, but he pushed himself off with the impact of the kick. It appeared to the people that the attack threw off Dawn. The students gasped, and some screamed from fear. However, Simone was still unfinished, and he rushed over to the fallen boy.
He sat down on Dawn’s chest and shot punch after punch at the boy’s face. However, Dawn guarded his face with a smirk on his lips. He also swayed his forearms to shake off the attack. This technique was successful in helping him avoid the attacks, but the forearms suffered some damage.
Simone’s ferocious moves scared the students. Saffron was still recording, but she told Grace to rush and find the principal and the other teachers. The class beauty was in tears as she dashed away.
...
Asta had just finished presenting the report to the principal with the economics teacher beside her, and the trio was happy that a student from their school had written such a report. At this point, they were thinking of Dawn as a treasure. They had the plan to give him focus coaching.
Asta was about to say something when the room door was flung open from the outside. The trio was surprised, and when they looked at the door, they found Grace crying.
The principal was about to scold the girl, but when he saw her tears, he stood up and asked, "Student, what is the matter? Are you alright?"
Asta took the queue and rushed over to Grace’s side. The latter was crying, and her breath was all over the place. Asta frowned and said sternly, "Grace, get a grip of yourself and tell us what happened."
Grace wiped her tears hurriedly and said, "Instructor Simone is beating Dawn Celestus ferociously in the ground."
The trio was shocked, and Asta asked, "What happened?"
Grace said, "I will tell you everything on the way, ma’am. Please save Dawn, and I am afraid that he will die."
She was insistent that they rush over quickly. The principal was an old man, but his eyes were still lively. He picked up the receiver of his intercom, and after pressing a button, he said, "Get to the ground and break up the fight. I will come over in a minute."
He looked up and said, "Do not worry. I have informed the school’s security guards to take action. Student Grace, tell me what is going on."
Grace nodded and began telling them what had transpired in the ground. The principal was enraged and picked up his cane. He said, "Lead the way."
Grace hurried along the corridors with the trio in tow. The people arrived at the stadium quickly and saw the Security guards trying extensively to get Simone away from Dawn. The young man was lying on the ground with his eyes closed, and Simone was kicking his abdomen with all his power.
Saffron was dragging Dawn away with the help of other students. The principal said coldly, "Officer Malone, taze this beast and put him in the detention room. Miss Asta, please bring Student Dawn to the infirmary and take him to the hospital if needed."
Then he turned to look at the students and spoke loudly, "All of you! Get back to class and give your statements to Mr. Dec0. Do you understand?"
The students nodded and quickly returned to the class with the economics teacher. Grace and Saffron did not move, and the Principal asked, "Do I have to invite you separately?"
Saffron replied, "Dawn is a ward of the state, and we are his closest friends. We are all he has, so we have the right to stay here and watch how you handle things, Principal Jennings."
She was enraged, and it was visible on her face. The security guard followed the instructions and took out a tazer machine to make Simone calm down. Grace and Saffron followed another guard who brought Dawn to the infirmary under Asta’s supervision.
The nurse was alarmed by the situation when she saw the traces of blood and swollen arms. She raised her brow and asked, "Who did this?"
She quickly picked up a few cotton swabs and cleaned the blood seeping from the claw wounds. She heard that no one answered her, and she turned to stare at Asta as she asked, "I asked, who beat up this kid?"
Asta was intimidated and replied, "Sister Konnie, it seemed that Instructor Simone lost control and.."
Sister Konnie raised her hand and said, "This is a police case, Miss Asta; either you call the cops right now, or you can take him to the hospital, but I will not do it."
Asta was shocked and asked, "Is the matter really that serious?"
Konnie glared and said, "The claw mark on his shirt is from the basic killing technique attack from the military. This was an attempted murder. So tell me if you and the Old Principal want to avoid this so that cuckold Simone could attack some other student again?"
Asta shivered and quickly took out her phone, but Saffron said, "Do not bother about it, Ma’am. I have already informed them. This time, that guy will not get away from his action."
The old principal was also standing outside, and when he heard this, he asked, "Do you have any proof that can acquit Simone of this crime?"
Saffron gazed at him and said, "Do you think the testimony of forty children and a video footage from the start to the end would suffice?"
Principal Jennings was stunned by this girl’s sarcastic demeanor. He asked, "What is your name, student?"
Saffron replied to him, and a few minutes later, while Sister Konnie finished cleaning Dawn up and was applying medicine, the cops arrived. The officer in the lead came to greet the principal, "I am Inspector Talon. Principle Jennings, why was I called here?"
The old man narrated the situation as he knew it and said, "The children have video evidence of the event, and they are also volunteering for a statement."
Inspector Talon was surprised and then asked, "Can you show me the video?"
Saffron said, "I can show you the video, Sir. But I will not hand over the device."
Inspector Talon furrowed his brows, and Principle Jennings asked, "What do you mean?"
Saffron replied, "In the past, whenever Instructor Simone punished any student excessively and left them injured, he was forgiven because there was no evidence. Let us not bluff each other; we both know that the Hymn family pulls strings in the shadows, this involves my brother. I will not trust anyone on this."
Her voice was calm, and her posture was strong. Jennings, Asta, and Inspector Talon were surprised, and Inspector Talon even wanted to come forward and coax her with lip service, but Sister Konnie said, "I agree with her. This is not my first time patching up a child who suffered his wrath. Simone used to punish children. Some were pushed to the situation where they could not walk and would crawl back here. I never said a word, but this guy has become more rampant over the years. Because we were in the same unit in the military.
Look at this boy. How old is he? What is his story? We all know that a few days ago, he almost died in a lightning strike. Why did Simone beat him up like this?"
Inspector Talon sighed and said, "Fine, you can hold the device, but please show me the video." ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Saffron nodded and showed him the video. She did not cut anything out, and they watched from the point where Dawn was punished to run ten laps. They were surprised why that happened, and Saffron told them a few things, like how Trevor likes to bully Dawn and was jealous of the recent changes.
The more the trip watched, the angrier they became. Principal Jennings was a white man whose face looked like a ripe tomato. He said, "Inspector Talon, I want this animal caged for his deeds. This bastard wants to bring my school down with him."
Asta was surprised by the old man’s outburst. Jennings was quite a gentleman, so it was unexpected. Inspector Talon said, "I will definitely do my best in this matter, Principal. My daughter and son happen to be students here, too. I do not feel safe leaving them under this guy’s watch. My deputy will record the statements here. In the meantime, bring me to see this animal."
Jennings nodded and led the Inspector away while a petite lady police officer was left behind to record statements. When she was about to begin, they all heard a groaning sound. Dawn had woken up.
