Not only were the students dumbfounded, but even I, who had always been calm, was also dumbfounded. I felt that something was wrong with the baton, and there was a hidden killing intent. If I had held the baton for a few more seconds, I wouldn't have been able to escape death even if I had three heads and six arms.
The spacious sports field was silent. Only my baton had exploded. The others were fine. This was enough to prove that someone was messing with me. I was furious. Fortunately, I had entered the middle stage of Clear Jing not long ago. My senses and consciousness had improved a little. Otherwise, I would have been blown up beyond recognition.
Due to the unexpected situation, the sports field was also stopped. It wasn't a case of being targeted, but murder. I didn't hesitate to contact Chief Qu, and he was also shocked when he heard about it. In our country, the regulation of guns and ammunition was very strict, let alone explosives. If he didn't handle it well, he might not be able to keep his position as the Chief.
Soon, Chief Qu arrived with his men. The school was also locked down, and the students were temporarily evacuated. After all, no one knew if there were more bombs.
Then, they started to investigate from the video recordings. Of course, the best clue was the surveillance camera in the equipment room. However, according to my memory, the baton was orange. From the video recordings, the box of equipment, including the baton, didn't have this color.
It seemed that the suspect was the teacher who had taken the equipment. Although he refused to admit it, I could feel that his heart was beating fast.
Moreover, Chief Qu had brought an interrogator with him. After some analysis, the teacher revealed a flaw. The time and place he had given were different from the video recordings. There was a three-minute gap in between, which was enough for him to do something.
Soon, Chief Qu personally came to negotiate with the teacher. Finally, he couldn't bear the pressure and confessed. It turned out that Director Fang had threatened and bribed him, and he had provided him with the explosive baton!
The suspect, Director Fang, was also arrested, but he still refused to admit it. Chief Qu was furious. He took out his pistol and pointed it at Director Fang's head.
"Damn it. The person who took the equipment has confessed. Do you want to eat bullets?"
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and the aura of a superior burst out. Director Fang panicked and kneeled on the ground. His face was full of remorse.
"Oh, don't shoot, don't shoot, I say."
Director Fang was a coward, and bullets didn't have eyes. He pulled a long face. It turned out that he had been bewitched by Second High School's Principal Wang. Sports was Second High School's specialty, but I had crushed them. It was beyond Principal Wang's tolerance. He seized the chance to discuss with Director Fang. That was why he had swapped the baton. It was a small explosive bag that could be controlled. When Principal Wang saw me, he couldn't wait to activate it.
Director Fang already had a grudge against me, so it wasn't strange that he was willing to take the risk. Last time, he had come to talk to me. He told me that he wouldn't allow the peddlers to send their goods to the school. He had even offered me two hundred thousand renminbi, but I had been rejected. The next day, before I could go to school, Director Fang stopped me. He thought that the Blood Wolf Gang wanted to kill me. In the end, not only was he slapped in the face, but he also humiliated his relative, Captain Fang.
Because of this, Director Fang had been holding a grudge against me. He couldn't raise his head in school, but he didn't dare to take revenge. After Principal Wang understood the situation, he decided to ask him to do something. It was a wise choice.
However, I found it strange that Director Fang wanted to deal with me. Why was Principal Wang so narrow-minded? Didn't he just lose two matches? It shouldn't affect Second High School. Moreover, he had purposely brought the baton with the explosive bag. It was obvious that he had come prepared.
Obviously, Director Qu had also considered this point. He had interrogated Principal Wang alone. The crime of intentional murder wasn't something to be trifled with. However, Principal Wang didn't seem to be afraid of anything.
"Director Qu, I advise you not to meddle in other people's business," Principal Wang said fearlessly. He was the one who complained first. Director Qu was surprised and frowned.
"Old Wang, what do you mean?"
Director Qu was a little worried. He didn't need to worry when dealing with Director Fang, but he didn't need to be so arrogant when dealing with Principal Wang.
"Anyway, I have reminded you. It's up to you to decide what to do. This matter can be big or small. If you want to make a fuss, I don't mind." Principal Wang smiled. He was relatively calm.
I was annoyed when I saw his pretentious expression. Pak! I slapped him. Pak!
The crisp sound echoed in the small room. A bright red palm print appeared on Principal Wang's face. He couldn't help but groan. He glared at me and shouted angrily, "Brat, even Director Qu is polite to me. Is it your turn to be arrogant?"
"What? I can't stand you taking advantage of your seniority, so I want to hit you. Can't I?" I shrugged and said casually.
Then, Director Qu waved his hand and brought me to the door. He sighed. "Xiao Zhuang, you don't know this. This Principal Wang is actually the son-in-law of the Zhao family. His wife is the daughter of Old Zhao …" I was stunned at first.
Then, I came to a sudden realization. So, he was also a member of the Zhao family. Now, I understood. The Zhao family was really sinister and cunning. Yesterday, they were humiliated by me. Today, they thought of a way to blow me up. Motherf * cker. If I wasn't lucky, my head would have been separated from my body.
Even if my physique was extraordinary, I wouldn't be able to withstand the baptism of a bomb. However, they used such a despicable method. Not only was the success rate high, even if they failed, the Zhao family wouldn't be implicated.
As the saying goes, a married daughter is like spilled water. No wonder Principal Wang was so calm. If the Zhao family wanted to protect him, it wouldn't be difficult.
Director Qu was a smart person. He was stuck in the middle, so it was hard for him to deal with this matter. I was puzzled as to why the Second High School suddenly came to disrupt the Third High School's Sports Day. What was even stranger was that this year's Sports Day was a new precedent. They gave me an exemption from the test. I felt like it was made for me. Now, I understood that Director Fang had pushed for it.
