During the two-hour lunch break, Zhou Likai carefully explained the situation of the troublemakers on the list to Xu Zifan, identified a few people he was confident he could persuade, and decided not to contact those he wasn't so sure he could handle. He had to be absolutely certain that things would go smoothly, otherwise, it would be troublesome if someone reported him.
Xu Zifan had two more days of rest. He didn't need to go to the afternoon assembly, as everyone else was gathering. He went to the restroom to fully charge his phone, then hid around the corner again to observe the training on the field. Someone had made a mistake again today; it was a student in class 1011, a nine-year-old girl. Xu Zifan had seen her in the archives before, and because she was only nine, he had paid special attention to her. The principal passed by the field and gave the students a few words of instruction. The little girl lost her balance and swayed slightly. After being reprimanded, she angrily retorted, resulting in the instructor forcing her to kneel on the ground and punishing her with fifty strokes of a ruler!
Xu Zifan was recording a video. Upon seeing this, he hid his phone and went outside. "Little sister, what are you doing here? Your aunt has been looking for you so worriedly."
Everyone froze for a moment. His roommates immediately tensed up, glaring at him fiercely to stop him from causing trouble. Instructor Li pointed his stun gun at him and shouted, "1018! What are you doing out here?"
Xu Zifan raised his hands and continued walking forward. "I'm dizzy, and my vision keeps going black. I want to ask the instructor if I can go to the infirmary for an IV drip."
"No! Go back!"
Xu Zifan looked at the little girl, pointed at her and said, "I'm not going back! She's my cousin, my aunt's darling. Last week, my aunt said my cousin was missing and couldn't be found. How could she be here? My aunt has already called the police, and they'll probably find her soon. You should contact my aunt quickly and return my cousin to her. Human trafficking is illegal."
The principal, a greasy 56-year-old man, frowned and looked at Xu Zifan suspiciously. "What human trafficking? All the students who come here are sent by their parents." He sized Xu Zifan up and down. "1018? You're new here? Don't you know that other people can't interrupt when the instructors are teaching?"
Xu Zifan's face was deathly pale, and he looked extremely weak. He shook his head, "I was critically ill last night, and I slept for most of the day after returning to my dorm today. I haven't even had time to go to school yet. But she is my aunt's daughter. If you don't believe me, call my aunt. She's almost frantic with worry."
Xu Zifan looked at the little girl, his voice full of reassurance, "Little sister, don't be afraid, your brother is here. Your aunt will definitely bring the police to find you soon."
The little girl was terrified; her knee had hit the ground and she was crying from the pain. Now, hearing Xu Zifan's words, she nodded repeatedly. She didn't know Xu Zifan, but she knew he was saving her. If Xu Zifan hadn't come out, she would have been beaten. That iron ruler was terrifying!
The principal hesitated for a moment. The students were brought in by their parents, some of whom had even signed waivers, so they weren't afraid to discipline them. But if it was really as Xu Zifan said, that the little girl was brought in by her stepmother and her biological mother had already called the police, then it would be a bit troublesome. At the very least, they couldn't let the girl be found looking like a child who had been severely beaten.
The principal nodded to the instructor with his hands behind his back, "Go find out the truth, and lock him in the solitary confinement room first."
Xu Zifan hurriedly said, "I'll go too, Principal. Please let me stay with my little sister. She has epilepsy, and I'm afraid she'll have a seizure."
Xu Zifan's performance was so genuine, it was as if he were a brother seeing his sister, that the principal didn't even bother to reprimand him. Upon hearing that the girl had epilepsy, he waved his hand in agreement. The crucial point was that audio recordings of screams and beatings at their school had surfaced online; this was a critical time, and they didn't want to cause any trouble. If Xu Zifan was lying, once the truth was revealed, these two liars would certainly face double the punishment; there was no one in the school they couldn't handle.
Xu Zifan stepped forward, took the little girl's hand, and whispered, "Little sister, don't be afraid, come with your brother." As he turned around, he and Zhou Likai exchanged a glance, and Zhou Likai nodded almost imperceptibly. Then, he was pushed away by Instructor Li.
The two were locked in a small, dark room. The little girl started to cry in fear. Xu Zifan patted her back and said softly, "Be good, don't cry. If someone hears you, they'll beat you. Be good, I'll protect you, okay?"
The little girl nodded hurriedly, too afraid to speak, and nestled in Xu Zifan's arms, trying to stifle her sobs. Xu Zifan comforted her for a while, and the sudden sense of security after her excessive fright quickly put her to sleep. With his back to the door, Xu Zifan took out his phone and quickly bypassed network restrictions, uploading the list of the deceased that he had found in the encrypted folder.
He blurred the deceased's name, but the deceased's age, gender, time of death, and compensation amount were clearly stated. The audio recording of the screams he previously shared has firmly held the top spot on the trending topics list after a day and a night of discussion, with countless netizens commenting and sharing, hoping for an official explanation and urging the person who released the audio to bravely come forward and tell the truth. Whether it's a fabrication or a genuine incident, they need to know the truth.
Seeing the death list at this point was like adding fuel to the fire. Although some people thought that audio recordings and tables, which are so easily forged, were unreliable, most people chose to believe it. Especially since they had found news reports of deaths at internet addiction treatment centers over the years, and several of them now matched the information on the list, it was chilling and the calls for a thorough government investigation of the Huaxia Youth Special Training School grew even louder!
The cyber police immediately traced the IP address of the account that posted the form, but still found nothing. They also consulted their superiors about whether to investigate the situation at the Huaxia Youth Special Training School. However, their superiors had not yet given approval, so they could only check relevant documents from previous years and did not take any further action. In the eyes of netizens, this was blatant inaction, which further fueled their anger and resentment.
The school headmaster quickly received the news and was severely reprimanded by several honorary principals over the phone. He hurriedly convened a meeting of all staff to discuss the matter and ordered the trainees to pull weeds on the playground. Zhou Likai subtly took this opportunity to contact their chosen teammates. Without instructors watching or surveillance cameras, all the trainees were much more relaxed and spoke in hushed tones. Zhou Likai's actions went completely unnoticed. This was also because he was usually so obedient that no one suspected him of anything he might do.
If it were just Zhou Likai alone who persuaded those troublemakers, they probably wouldn't agree, since Zhou Likai was usually very well-behaved. But when Zhou Likai mentioned Xu Zifan, they became interested. In all their time at the school, Xu Zifan was the first person to have managed to rescue someone from those beasts—that was real skill! When the little girl was being beaten, they were indignant and almost couldn't help but speak up, but they knew the consequences wouldn't be good; they would only be punished along with the little girl, possibly even more severely, and suffer another beating.
But Xu Zifan did it! Even if Xu Zifan really was that little girl's cousin, his ability to do it made them look at him in a different light. And Zhou Likai's statement that the principals' current anxiety was also due to Xu Zifan's work rekindled their hopes, and they agreed to Zhou Likai's alliance without hesitation.
Even in the depths of hell, they are willing to fight desperately for even the slightest glimmer of hope!
The principal and staff had a meeting all afternoon, and Zhou Likai's side had been contacted almost completely. The next step was to wait for Xu Zifan to explain the plan, but Xu Zifan went into the dark room, which made them a little anxious. They couldn't wait to rush into the dark room to ask Xu Zifan.
Xu Zifan had been closely monitoring online public opinion, occasionally posting comments to guide the narrative and intensify the online outcry against the school. After sensing that the second piece of evidence had already been widely discussed, he posted ten sex videos, or rather, rape videos!
The victims' heads and torsos were completely obscured by thick mosaics; only their exposed hands and feet revealed their gender and suggested they were young teenagers. The perpetrators were chosen from the clearest available video footage, including the principal, Dr. Yang, instructors, and several involved in threesomes—all the honorary principals were included. The headline read: "[The principal, honorary principals, doctors, and instructors of the Huaxia Youth Training School are all depraved beasts, without exception!!!]"
Everyone who saw these videos was outraged! This wasn't some falsifiable list or audio recording; it was solid video footage! The victims, their faces blurred, were crying, struggling, and screaming—it was so horrific that many viewers couldn't bear to watch. The ugly, perverted faces of the principal and his accomplices were clearly visible in the videos. Several skilled editors have reviewed them, proving they are not fake; this is irrefutable, undeniable evidence!
The official Weibo accounts of various government departments were flooded with comments. The official Weibo accounts of the L County government and the Public Security Bureau, where the Huaxia Youth Training School is located, were overwhelmed with messages. Their phones were so busy that they had to unplug them, otherwise, every call would be met with accusations. They were locals and knew that several deaths had occurred at the Huaxia Youth Training School, but the families of the deceased had all accepted private settlements. Therefore, they were unaware of whether the school actually treated students in this way.
This video is absolute evidence. The mayor convened an emergency meeting and ordered people to bring the individuals appearing in the video to the government to explain the situation. The video cannot be deleted from the internet, confirming that a skilled hacker is manipulating this incident. The impact of this event is extremely negative, and it has become a hot topic of national concern. They must resolve it quickly; there can be no delay.
The principal, Dr. Yang, and two instructors were taken away, causing some panic among the school staff. All the students were locked in their dormitories, forbidden to come out, and dinner was cut off. The staff gathered in the large conference room, monitoring online updates and discussing what to do. Even when the death list was leaked before, they hadn't felt afraid, but now that the video had been released, they were truly terrified.
Who exactly is targeting them? And how did they obtain this video?
At this time, the rest of the school was empty and deserted. Xu Zifan called Dr. Liu, his voice low, "Doctor, it's 7:30."
The words "7:30" acted like a command key, triggering a deep hypnosis in Dr. Liu. He was momentarily dazed when he heard Xu Zifan command, "Go to the restroom and avoid other people."
Dr. Liu got up, greeted the others, and left the meeting room. Everyone was irritated and ignored him. Xu Zifan said, "You need to take all the cash to open the door to the small dark room."
Dr. Liu walked quickly to the small, dark room. The key was hanging on the outside wall, and he opened it quickly. He saw Xu Zifan, who had hung up the phone and said to him, "Give me the cash and go back. You only went to the bathroom when you came out; you didn't do anything else."
Dr. Liu looked dazed. After handing over the five hundred yuan, he put away his phone and slowly walked back. Xu Zifan picked up the little girl, closed the small dark room, and strode towards the student dormitories. He had hacked all the school's surveillance cameras; now they would only show a quiet, normal scene. He had also turned off the alarms in every dormitory. In other words, unless an instructor suddenly appeared and saw them, they were completely free!
This was the perfect opportunity to escape; it was the least likely time for the instructors to spot them. Xu Zifan changed his clothes, put on a hat and mask, placed the little girl in the bathroom, and then took the key to open his dormitory door. Luckily, the instructors had left a large bunch of keys on the wall opposite the bathroom for convenience; otherwise, he would have had to steal them.
All the students knew something seemed to have happened at the school, and as soon as they saw someone arrive, they all rushed to the windows to look. Xu Zifan gestured to Zhou Likai, their pre-arranged code signal—it meant escape. Zhou Likai stared in shock, his eyes wide, and pulled Xu Zifan outside, urgently asking, "Leave now? How?"
"Where to go?"
Xu Zifan lowered his voice, "Just leave like this, no one will stop us, no surveillance cameras, no alarms." He shoved the keys into Zhou Likai's hand, "Find the people you contacted, hurry up."
Zhou Likai quickly glanced around and saw that everyone he had contacted was anxiously peering out the windows. He gritted his teeth, quickly found the key, and went to open the door for them. Many trainees asked what was going on, but Zhou Likai didn't answer a single question. After finding the people he had arranged to escape with, he led them to gather around Xu Zifan.
Xu Zifan said, "Carry all the seriously injured people here and come with me, and be quick!"
There was a student unconscious in Xu Zifan's dorm. Zhou Likai rushed in first, carried him on his back, and even tied a bed sheet tightly around himself to prevent him from falling. The other students in the dorm asked, bewildered, "516, what's wrong? What are you doing?"
Zhou Likai glanced at them, seemingly wanting to say something, but held back. He didn't know if he could escape, and couldn't worry about anything else; he could only follow Xu Zifan's orders. He carried 1009 on his back and ran out, while the others found several seriously injured people, each carrying one. Their expressions could almost be described as resigned to their fate!
Finally, some trainees realized they were trying to escape and started making a fuss. Some even pressed the alarm bell, only to find it was malfunctioning. The trainees became even more chaotic, especially those in the dormitories whose doors were still locked. They were banging on windows and doors. Xu Zifan couldn't gamble on whether they would stop him, so he didn't open the doors for them. He went to the bathroom, picked up the little girl, and placed her on a girl's back. The little girl woke up at this point, a little scared, but after Xu Zifan comforted her a couple of times, she didn't dare to make a sound.
Zhou Likai contacted a total of 16 people. Xu Zifan called on one of the people who wasn't carrying anyone to go to another small dark room and rescue 1017, who had failed to commit suicide. Then, he found a wire, walked to the front door alone, knocked out the guard unexpectedly, and began to pick the lock.
Zhou Likai and the others hid by the wall, staring intently at Xu Zifan, not daring to breathe. Finally, five minutes later, Xu Zifan opened the door! They immediately rushed over at top speed, faster than they had ever been in their lives!
Xu Zifan stopped them and said solemnly, "This matter is not over yet. Remember, you're not going out for revenge, but for your own future. I will contact you. Don't let your hands get stained with blood for those beasts! Zhou Likai, here's five hundred yuan. After you get out, take them to rent a car and go to the city, or better yet, the province, to file a complaint with the government. Tell them everything that happened here. Don't rush to contact your family, lest you get arrested again. I'll come find you in a few days."
Zhou Likai was startled. "You're not leaving? You...you'll be beaten to death if you're discovered!"
"No, you guys go ahead. Take some time to read the news online. The beast's end is near." Xu Zifan's expression and tone were remarkably calm, which reassured the boys. They thanked Xu Zifan in unison, gave him one last look, and quickly ran away from the school.
The school is located in a remote area, and they may have to run a long way to see a car or a person, but at this moment they are like a tightly wound top, with inexhaustible energy and unlimited motivation!
Xu Zifan wiped away all the fingerprints, went back to the corridor outside the dormitory, and shouted, "The school's bad behavior has been exposed online. The instructors are in the conference room now, and the gate is open. I'm letting you out. You can run if you want, stay if you want, or go find the instructors to settle scores. But remember, don't kill anyone. A fracture is only a minor injury, but if someone dies, you'll go to jail. The choice is yours. Protect your lives; only by living can you have hope!"
After Xu Zifan finished speaking, he opened all the dormitory doors as quickly as possible, turned around and ran out of their sight, returning to the small dark room.
The trainees hesitated as they left their dormitories, exchanging bewildered glances. No one spoke. After a few minutes, one trainee suddenly ran out, excitedly rushing out as the gate opened. One followed, and soon over a hundred trainees had run out. Everyone went to the training ground, and seeing them run away without anyone stopping them, everyone was filled with disbelief. They remembered what Xu Zifan had just said—that the instructors were in the conference room. A dozen or so troublemakers who hadn't been contacted by Zhou Likai gleamed with malice, gathered their roommates—more than fifty in total—who were willing to follow them, broke off some tree branches, grabbed bricks, and stormed into the conference room.
The remaining hundreds of people didn't dare to run. They were afraid, afraid this was just a school trap. They were terrified, so terrified that even seeing the gate open, they didn't dare to run out, gathering near the gate and whispering amongst themselves. Slowly, groups of three or five cautiously stepped out of the gate. Seeing the unconscious guard and the vast sky outside, they panicked and ran. Some tentatively followed, and finding they weren't caught, they laughed and cried as they sped up.
They were free! They were free! At that moment, they couldn't think of anything; their minds were blank. All they knew was that they had escaped that cannibalistic hell! They ran frantically, wanting only to get as far away from hell as possible!
Of the hundreds of trainees, some ran away and some stayed. Their personalities were uncertain, and Xu Zifan didn't tell them what to do, only giving them the freedom to choose. Whatever they chose, they would walk their own paths. As for the future, he had a list of all the trainees and could contact them later to see if they needed help.
At this moment, the fifty-odd people had already rushed into the conference room. As soon as they entered, they smashed several instructors' heads with bricks! Then, while they were stunned or bleeding from their heads, they snatched their stun guns and started fighting with the others. The trainees were all like enraged lions, and each blow to the instructors seemed to vent a little of their hatred, their eyes growing redder and redder with each fight.
The conference room also contained female psychologists and female instructors, all emitting piercing screams. The female trainees had no intention of letting them off the hook; it was these women who, every time they captured a female trainee, would strip her naked and search her body, bathe her in front of everyone, and crush her...
The students' self-esteem. Now it was their turn! Several female students rushed up and stripped them naked, pulling their hair hard and beating them until their faces were bruised and swollen.
The boy who was leading the fight went berserk. He straddled Instructor Li, grabbed a brick, and was about to smash it over his head when another boy quickly pulled him back. "Have you forgotten? Minor injuries don't matter, but if someone dies, you'll have to pay with your life! It's not worth it!"
His shout brought Xu Zifan's words to many people's minds. They continued to beat him fiercely, but avoided vital organs. Someone ran to get an iron ruler and a dragon whip, so that all the beasts here could taste the bitterness of torture!
The staff didn't have a chance to call the police, so for a while, no one knew what kind of twist had happened at the school. Xu Zifan found a laptop, sat in the small dark room, and monitored the online public opinion. When the discussion subsided slightly, he posted three pieces of evidence at once.
One was an audio recording he made that morning in the infirmary, showing 1017 attempting suicide by swallowing toothpaste. Despite being critically ill, Dr. Yang ordered him to force-feed water to induce vomiting. The recording also included his questions, their responses, conversations, and attitudes. He had adjusted the audio quality to make it exceptionally clear; every sentence was perfectly audible.
One video he filmed showed students in class, where anyone who misremembered a sentence was dragged to the podium and beaten. The iron ruler was used to break the skin on the student's hands before stopping. In another video, four instructors ganged up on a student, humiliatingly holding him down and hitting him with the iron ruler before handcuffing him and taking him away. It was extremely cruel.
Another one is the film he shot of a nine-year-old girl who was forced to kneel down for talking back. The little girl's cries were so innocent and so heart-wrenching. The principal and so many instructors actually took out iron rulers to beat her. No normal person would be unmoved!
Xu Zifan blurred the faces of all the students, leaving none out. These three pieces of evidence quickly sparked a new round of heated discussion, and public sentiment was at its peak. No one doubted that it was fake anymore. This time was different. Before, there was no concrete evidence; it was all based on what this student said, that student said—it could easily be used to frame someone, and couldn't be considered irrefutable proof. But this time, these videos were the most direct evidence, allowing everyone to see everything that happened in this school without any concealment!
Xu Zifan noticed some comments online saying that this school was really like this. Their children or relatives were in this school, and they wanted to come to the school to find them as soon as possible. These people are probably really stupid. They saw some promotional advertisements, visited the "peaceful" school, saw some banners hanging on the school, and thought it was a good place, so they heartlessly sent their children here.
Even if they were ignorant, their mistakes have already been made. Whether their children forgive them or not, they have to bear it; regret is useless.
A small minority agreed with the school's management, saying that some unfilial children, problem teenagers, and troublemakers needed a place to be disciplined. They argued that most students were well-behaved in class, and this was the result of reform. Xu Zifan directly doxxed these idiots; if they were keyboard warriors, he implanted viruses into all their electronic devices, endlessly looping terrifying scenes. For those whose parents were confirmed to be shameless, he exposed their information online without reservation, also revealing the original owner's parents' information as well.
Doxxing is wrong; he's never done anything like that before. But for these people, this is just a small retaliation. He has many more gifts in store for them.
These shameless parents quickly felt the power of being doxxed. Countless people called to curse them, some even getting suspended from their jobs. Neighbors looked at them with strange eyes, and relatives and friends who disagreed called to reprimand them, while those who agreed called to urge them to resolve the matter quickly and not embarrass their family. They were too afraid to answer the phone and didn't even dare to leave their house!
Xu Zifan opportunely posted news about the Huaxia Youth Training School on the e-sports forum, saying that the male voice asking questions in the infirmary recording sounded a lot like "Qingfeng Xulai". The original main character used to speak with his microphone on, and many game videos were saved. People quickly compared the posts and found they were indeed identical, even the rhythm and tone of voice were the same. Could it be that "Qingfeng Xulai" had been sent to an internet addiction treatment center?
Those who play e-sports all know "Qingfeng Xulai". Upon seeing this news, they immediately took action and quickly discovered that Xu Zifan's parents' names were on the list of scumbag parents exposed. The speculation that Xu Zifan was sent to that school is very likely true!
The game Xu Zifan uploaded was also trending on social media. The initial discussion was about how fun the game was and how eagerly people wanted the developers to update it. Seeing this information now suddenly connects the two.
"Qingfengxulai" suddenly disappeared while playing a game, and the game he uploaded was promised to be updated in three days but there was no progress. This is all because this e-sports genius and game-making genius was sent to an internet addiction treatment school by his scumbag parents!
Sending an ordinary person there evokes sympathy and anger; sending a little girl there is heartbreaking and distressing; sending a rising genius there is utterly outrageous! How could anyone be so ignorant as to do such a thing? Why does the country allow such a school that stifles genius? How did this school even pass the approval process and get established? What connections are behind it?
One sharp question after another was raised, geniuses were sent in to be tortured, and no one said that unfilial children should be disciplined anymore. Everyone knew that this was ignorance, cold-blooded cruelty, and that the parents who were like "gentle breezes" were brain-dead!
Xu Zifan's parents were taking their youngest son for a walk in their neighborhood after dinner when they suddenly received a barrage of abusive phone calls, which infuriated them. They then noticed that everyone in the neighborhood avoided them and pointed at them, saying things like they were mentally ill and that having a younger son meant they were trying to kill their older son. When they confronted the people, they were met with ridicule and sarcasm, and only then did they learn about the online uproar.
The two returned home and quickly learned what had happened. Their first reaction after watching the videos was...
"Useless is useless, and will always embarrass us!"
They don't care how their eldest son is doing. What difference does it make? Aren't many people in the video attending class properly? Those who are being disciplined deserve it; what's there to be angry about? What angers them is that they spent so much money sending Xu Zifan away so they wouldn't be ashamed of their son skipping school and being addicted to games anymore. Who knew they'd be even more ashamed now, and their shame would be felt nationwide! Now everyone knows their phone number, everyone knows they sent their son to an internet addiction treatment center, and everyone is calling them scum and beasts. They have nowhere to vent their anger; they're absolutely furious!
As for those online saying Xu Zifan is a genius, what a load of rubbish! People still idolize him for playing games; they think those people are just brainless.
Then another short video was discovered by people on WeChat Moments and went viral, quickly spreading to various platforms and trending on social media. The video showed a drunk man in a police uniform; from his words, it was clear he was an instructor at the Huaxia Youth Special Training School. Holding a bottle of alcohol, he drank and talked to his friends about things at the school, extremely proudly boasting about how he abused those bastards, how he'd slept with two pretty girls, and how he wasn't afraid of anyone dying at the school because he had connections. His arrogant and smug tone made you want to kill him!
Perhaps a friend couldn't stand it anymore and recorded this short video, posting it to their WeChat Moments, which was then discovered by netizens and became yet another piece of evidence. When Xu Zifan hypnotized the instructor, he instructed him to find a few gossipy friends to tell them these things; this outcome was within his expectations. The chain of revelations finally attracted the attention of the Beijing municipal government. Orders were relayed down to L County, and the mayor and secretary of L County have essentially been implicated and punished; they will lose their positions and be demoted to other locations.
They were demoted, so naturally they vented their anger on the principal. Now that the evidence was irrefutable, the principal couldn't explain himself no matter what he said, and he and the people in the video were immediately locked up.
The school security guard woke up and was terrified to see hundreds of students at the main gate. Sensing something was wrong, he rushed to the conference room, only to hear screams coming from inside. He ran into a room, locked the door, and trembling, called the police. The police were extremely surprised to hear that there had been a student riot, many had fled, and many were assaulting instructors.
Without a second thought, they reported to their superiors and dispatched thirty armed police officers to the school to handle the situation. As soon as the police sirens approached, Xu Zifan erased all traces and fingerprints from the computer, placed the computer and phone in another room, and then quickly ran to the conference room, shouting, "The police are here! Go back to your dorms! Weren't you sleeping in your dorms? Wipe away your fingerprints!"
Xu Zifan tossed them a bunch of wet wipes, which he had just taken from the infirmary. Everyone was startled by the mention of the police and instinctively did as Xu Zifan instructed, hurriedly wiping up everything they had touched and following him back to the dormitory. None of the staff members who had been beaten in the conference room could get up; they were all groaning weakly, and some had even fainted.
Xu Zifan led them back to the dormitory area. Everyone took off their clothes, turned on the shower, and washed themselves off to remove the small amount of blood. At that moment, the police were running towards the conference room and didn't notice them. Xu Zifan set their clothes on fire, and everyone helped. Once the clothes were almost burned, they rushed into the toilet, then quickly ran back to their respective dorm rooms, put on their clothes, and lay down.
They train every day, and their physical fitness is far superior to that of their peers. They did all of this in just a few minutes, and the police only entered the conference room when they lay down.
The horrific scene in the conference room left the police speechless. They cautiously searched several rooms but found no trainees; instead, they found the guards. The guards said the assailants had run back to their dormitories and led them to the dormitory area. They carefully approached and discovered that over fifty trainees were actually sleeping!
They were called out of their dorm room and made to stand together. They were asked if they were the ones who had attacked the people in the meeting room. They were still quite bewildered, somewhat unable to believe they had just beaten up those bastards, and looking at the police in front of them with confusion. The police were here; were they saved? But when the police asked if they had assaulted anyone, would they be arrested? For a moment, they forgot to answer; their minds were completely blank.
Xu Zifan slowly raised his head and said weakly, "I don't know where the conference room is. I was just sleeping. Are you here to rescue me? Can I leave here? I don't want to die, I want to go to the hospital!"
A dozen or so troublemakers were the first to react, and then asked the police with hopeful eyes if they were there to rescue people. They had no idea about any beating. The others also begged the police to take them away, saying they didn't want to die there. Several girls cried terribly, collapsing to the ground and covering their faces, saying they were finally saved.
They looked like a group of long-term abused victims; how could anyone beat someone so badly? The police captain leading the team asked the guard, "Do you know who did the beating? Was it really them?"
The guards nodded repeatedly, "Yes, it's them!"
Xu Zifan looked at him in surprise, "What did you do to frame me? I didn't do anything! I've never even seen you before, how could you have seen me hit anyone?"
Several people joined in, asking, "Why did you harm us?"
The captain frowned and asked the guard, "Did you see it? Who hit the person, and where did they run off to? Talking nonsense is an obstruction of justice."
The guard was quite frightened today, and being asked this question made him even more afraid. After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said, "I didn't see anything. I just heard someone scream in the conference room, then I hid in that room and called the police. I heard someone say to go back to the dormitory, and then a lot of people were running in the corridor. I... I don't know..."
"So you mean you didn't see anything?"
"N-nothing..."
Of course, you can't arrest people without evidence. Later, the people at the door said that the fifty-odd people had run away, and then those fifty-odd people said they were afraid of being re-educated.
The officer caught him, so he ran back to his dormitory. All the school's surveillance cameras were turned off around 8 PM, so they didn't capture anything.
The team leader consulted with his superiors and had no choice but to send the staff members to the hospital. Since there were too many students at the school, they were temporarily housed on campus under police supervision. At this point, there were no school staff members left at the school.
