Chapter 6, Panic

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

However, once the excitement subsided, he first displayed a moment of confusion, then his mouth fell open in astonishment, leaving him in a daze as he gazed at everything before him

As Zhou Liming left, the classroom, which had just been so quiet that one could hear a pin drop, erupted with a "buzzing" sound, filled with whispers as everyone shared their gossiping opinions on the matter

The astonished headmaster, after regaining composure, became extremely agitated. He slammed the table and shouted: "This is absolutely unacceptable. A student like this should be expelled from our school immediately. Such blatant disregard for discipline and refusal to repent is simply..."

The blood vessels and veins crawled along the arm like centipedes, with dark green scales appearing one after another in a faint manner

When Zhou Liming heard the dean say he was to be expelled from school, his mind went blank with a "bang," and he could no longer absorb anything. The only voice echoing in his mind was: "Expelled from school, expelled from school..." His originally pale face turned an extreme shade of ashen, becoming a deep gray.

No ... ...

Upon hearing the sharp sound of the emergency alarms, Zhou Liming's body stiffened, and his face turned as pale as paper. The years of hard study leading up to his second year of high school were all aimed at gaining admission to university, in hopes of breaking free from his fate. Yet, who could have imagined that fate would play a trick on him? The future he once dreamed of seemed to dissipate like mist under the sun, vanishing in an instant

Zhou Liming, of course, could not hear any of this; his mind was completely blank. He only knew to follow the director of education to the academic affairs office. Then the director began to say something, occasionally interrupted by the homeroom teacher, with a few students nearby serving as witnesses. However, Zhou Liming did not hear what they were saying at all; he only kept nodding. The anxiety in his mind made his already insecure heart feel even more at a loss. Yet, Zhou Liming still did not hear what they were saying; he only kept nodding. The anxiety in his mind made his already insecure heart feel even more at a loss.

Few classmates in the class were aware of what was happening, all of them curiously staring at Zhou Liming, who was standing up. In their eyes, Zhou Liming, who was honest and unremarkable, how could he provoke such great anger from the homeroom teacher? Moreover, even the school’s director of education had come with two security guards, which certainly indicated that this was not a trivial matter

What should I do, what should I do...

Zhou Liming had never imagined that he would experience such a day; the moment he heard the sound of his bones fracturing, the initial sensation of exhilaration transformed into an endless state of fear

The ambulance quickly departed. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, Zhou Liming let out a quiet sigh of relief

Moments later, a cacophony of voices erupted from the playground, followed by the sharp wail of two ambulances rushing through the school gate, heading towards the direction of the restroom

Zhou Liming felt an overwhelming sense of regret, questioning why he had been so impulsive and why he could not control himself. Trembling slightly, Zhou Liming, filled with remorse and anxiety, walked out of his seat, resembling a child who had done something wrong, following the principal and others out of the classroom. The best outcome would still be a serious reprimand and being placed under school observation

The strength of these individuals is not insignificant, but when it strikes Zhou Liming, it feels as if it is hitting a steel plate, and Zhou Liming remains unfazed. However, as soon as they are hit by Zhou Liming... As soon as the sound of bones breaking is heard, one can understand how tragic their fate will be. Completely unaware of the severity of the situation, Zhou Liming only knows how to knock them all down.

At this moment, Zhou Liming was filled with an intense sense of excitement, completely devoid of the apprehension he felt during his first fight

I noticed the problem on Monday; he was running to the bathroom every day, though I couldn't tell what he was doing.

Did you see his face just now? He looked as pale as a sheet of paper, clearly having made a significant mistake

Zhou Liming, whose mind was in a chaotic state, did not hear the class bell at all. He was completely oblivious even when the vice class monitor called for everyone to stand up, remaining dazed and lost in thought. Fortunately, the teacher did not notice him. After greeting the students with "Hello, everyone!", the teacher began to open the textbook and started the lesson.

How could this happen? I just wanted to teach them a lesson... Cold sweat broke out on my forehead. Everything before my eyes exceeded the limits that Zhou Liming could accept. Having always abided by the law since childhood, he was regarded as a good child and a good student in the eyes of his teachers and the dean. Just thinking about the disappointed expression on the dean's face upon receiving this news made Zhou Liming feel as if he were being engulfed by endless fear

The conditional reflex caused Zhou Liming to stand up abruptly, his overly frantic movements jolting the table, causing the books on it to tumble to the ground with a clatter

After a lengthy discussion, the head of the teaching department said slowly: "The lightest consequence would be expulsion from the school. If the other party's parents pursue the matter, there may also be legal liability. Of course, this is just my personal opinion and still needs to be approved by the school meeting, but I don't think this will be a problem!"

Ah..." Zhou Liming cried out, the tearing pain in his head causing him to clutch his head.

Fleeing back to the classroom, Zhou Liming's face was pale to the point of being terrifying, his whole body trembling slightly, sitting in his seat as if pricked by needles, like an ant on a hot pan. To put it simply, Zhou Liming's character remained the same as before, but an unknown force in his blood had made him irritable and lost his senses. Once this force subsided and the true Zhou Liming was restored, how could he muster the courage to face all of this?

Director Jiao is a slender middle-aged man, with a very amiable appearance and gentle eyes. However, only those who have been reprimanded by him truly understand that the term "smiling tiger" refers to people like him

The most dangerous dog is actually the one that does not bark

The onlookers were all taken aback; Zhou Liming, looking thin and frail, who could have imagined that he would single-handedly take down seven or eight fierce-looking boys in the blink of an eye? What was even more chilling was the ruthlessness of his strikes, as if he had a deep-seated grudge against them. The two who were hit in the nose were covered in blood, their noses deeply sunken, and it was easy to guess that the distance to a comminuted fracture of the nasal bone was not far off.

A lingering sense of awareness compelled Zhou Liming to endure the pain as he turned and rushed out of the academic affairs office. Having witnessed the destructive power he exhibited in the orphanage room, Zhou Liming could not guarantee that in a state of loss of control, he would not tear the people here apart. Thus, he could only flee, escaping the school to find a place to calm himself down

Student Zhou Liming, please come with me to the Academic Affairs Office

The smile that the director just put on is quite terrifying. You have no idea, last time... In short, someone is going to be in big trouble this time.

Zhou Liming only felt his hair standing on end, his throat swallowing saliva as it moved, continuously murmuring: "It will be fine, it will be fine, it will not all ... ... "

This is a school, and fights are common, but at most they result in minor injuries. However, even minor injuries will incur severe penalties. Zhou Liming is aware of his status; he cannot be treated like some wealthy students who can be shielded by the school. With his ordinary, even somewhat lowly, status as an orphan, and having caused such harm to someone, there is only one outcome: expulsion and referral to the police station.

Let us proceed this way, Teacher Chen. The situation has been clarified. Although the fault does not lie entirely with Student Zhou Liming, as you have seen, nearly every student who was just sent to the hospital is injured. Furthermore, the doctors have reported that there are three cases of comminuted fractures, several broken ribs, and one case of a fractured nose. This incident has had a very detrimental impact

Zhou Liming shook his head vigorously, saying, "It wasn't me, it wasn't me..." and then he broke through the crowd of onlooking classmates as if he were fleeing

Those who seem to chatter incessantly and wear a smug expression are merely a group of superficial fools. After enduring for eighteen years, Zhou Liming, under the influence of indulgence, can only be imagined as being utterly frenzied. The power generated by internal genetic mutations transforms him, a person with no fighting experience, into a lion in front of these seven or eight tall boys.

In a casual remark, the fate of a student has already been determined

Zhou Liming, who took off running, almost vanished before everyone's eyes in the blink of an eye

The sound of footsteps disregarded the ongoing class and directly entered the classroom. Zhou Liming felt several gazes focused on him. Then, the homeroom teacher's rough voice rang out: "Zhou Liming, come out here." His expression was filled with disbelief, along with a kind of anger stemming from disappointment.

But before he could catch his breath, a cacophony of footsteps echoed from the staircase, accompanied by the voices of the head of instruction and the homeroom teacher, who were approaching the classroom.

A sudden roar erupted without warning, causing Zhou Liming to jump up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. Unable to accept it all, he let out a maniacal laugh. His emotions somewhat out of control, he felt an unknown, mysterious power surging within his blood once again. His blood ignited, emanating a bloodthirsty aura, resembling an enraged beast

In just two or three minutes, seven or eight boys all collapsed onto the floor, each one clutching their arms and legs, covering their chests and letting out agonizing cries. A few were even knocked unconscious, lying on the ground like dead pigs
