Chapter 29
Mei Shu felt uncomfortable seeing Mei He’s stereotypical behavior and forced herself to continue with a smile, “Xiao He, you just said don’t hit you. Did someone hit you here?”
Mei He suddenly stood up, looking shocked, and started to repeat the phrase “don’t hit me” while holding his head and spinning around.
Mei Shu was frightened and quickly exchanged a Placating Magical Candy for Meihu. After Mei He calmed down, Mei Shu pulled up his sleeves and saw several old and new red marks on his arms. Mei Shu’s anger immediately rose to the top, but fortunately, only his arms had scars after she checked his body.
After taking a photo, Mei Shu suppressed her anger and went to the teacher’s office, where several teachers were sitting.
“Excuse me, who is Mei He’s homeroom teacher?”
The people in the office looked towards the sound and saw a 16-17 year old girl standing at the door with a cold expression.
An older female teacher stood up and said, “Mei He’s homeroom teacher is off today. We are the on-duty teachers today. May I ask who you are?”
Mei Shu directly said, “I am Mei He’s sister. I want to know what happened to my brother’s hand. I hope you can give me a perfect explanation, otherwise…”
This special school had a good reputation, and these teachers were shocked to hear Mei Shu’s words. After briefly understanding the situation, they quickly called Mei He’s homeroom teacher and principal.
Half an hour later, the two teachers arrived at the office one after another.
Mei He’s homeroom teacher, Ms. Huang, was surprised when she saw the photo and quickly explained, “I have never physically punished any students!”
Mei Shu watched her expression and felt that she didn’t seem to fake it. Mei Shu frowned and asked, “Then how can you explain the injury on his hand?!”
The principal asked the teacher on duty to summon the life teacher who was in charge of Mei He’s dormitory.
The life teacher’s surname was Chen, a middle-aged woman who looked honest and kind. When she knew that Mei Shu was Mei He’s sister, her eyes flashed a moment of avoidance, which was caught by Mei Shu.
Ms. Chen appeared anxious and tried to defend herself, saying, “Fellow teachers, and Mei He’s sister, I wasn’t really sure about the injury. I thought it was caused by his fight with another child. Ms. Huang, can you help me testify that Mei He has a history of fighting with others?!”
Mei Shu frowned when she heard Ms Chen say that Mei He liked fighting. As she didn’t know the truth of this statement, she continued to ask about the problem she needed to solve, “So it seems that Ms. Chen knew about the injury early on, but if it wasn’t caused by you, why didn’t you report it?”
When Ms. Huang heard this, she also reprimanded, “Ms. Chen, you’re not a newcomer anymore. If you can’t handle it, you should tell me. How could you keep it hidden?”
Mei Shu took a step forward and stared at Ms. Chen with a cold smile. “I’m afraid it’s not just a matter of concealing it, is it, Ms. Chen”
Chen retreated several steps when she was stared at by Mei Shu, but she felt relieved thinking that every time she hit Mei He, it was in the dead corner of the surveillance camera. She couldn’t admit it. Otherwise her daughter would definitely be fired too. So she swallowed and said with a strong voice, “I admit that I didn’t do my job well, but I really don’t know how he got hurt!”
Seeing the situation, Mei Shu knew that Ms. Chen would definitely not admit it on her own. She clenched her fists to suppress the urge to hit someone, and calmly said, “I think we should report this to the police. There must be some clues left behind from the surveillance footage, witness testimonies, and physical evidence.”
As soon as Mei Shu finished speaking, the principal remembered Mei Shu’s family background. If she reported the incident to the police and it escalated, it would definitely affect the reputation of the school. The principal quickly stepped forward and stopped Mei Shu from dialing.
“Wait, wait, wait, Miss Mei, we understand how you feel, and we will definitely give you an explanation. But right now, we don’t have any concrete evidence, and if we call the police, Mei He will definitely be questioned as a party involved. It will not be good for this special child.”
Mei Shu was just trying to scare them. She was also worried that the school would hide the evidence in order to protect their reputation. If that happened, the police might not have enough evidence to close the case in the end. When she heard this, she pretended to put down her hand. “Alright, deal with it now. If this matter isn’t resolved, I won’t let it go today!”
Although Mie Shu looked young, her manner when she spoke made everyone feel that they could not underestimate her because of her age.
[Congratulations, Master, for winning the respect of others. Reputation +1]
Suddenly, everyone felt that Mei Shu’s aura had become even stronger.
