In shock, the teachers retreated as though they had been beaten back by some bad news. Jane would never have the bravery to say that! No matter how much they had harassed her, she had always borne it without any complaint!
Yet this time, she disclosed everything in front of the police and reporters!
The lead teacher charged to Jane's side, as if she had endured long enough, and tried to pull Jane's hair.
The police, who was scribbling in his notepad, immediately caught her hand and handcuffed her.
His face was cold. "What do you think the police are here for?!"
"Jane, you b*tch! How dare you talk about me like that, I will rip your mouth out! Do you know what would happen if you displease me?!"
The handcuffed woman was still sneering at Jane.
While the other women stood at the side conscientiously, unlike the lead teacher.
How were they to continue making a scene when they could not even imagine the punishments they would get from their family?
After the teachers were taken away, the reporters soon disbanded.
The headmaster looked at Jane and sighed in resignation. "Jane, the troubles you have been through! Were you the one who sent the text?"
Startled, Jane pressed her lips together as she remembered Ziggy's encouragement.
What actually happened should not be brought to light, or Ziggy would have to face the pressure of living in a society prematurely.
Jane nodded lightly. "Yes, I did send you the text."
The headmaster nodded. "You are brave. You should tell me sooner if things like this happen again in the future, okay? Compared to the teachers, the students here are the more precious ones, so we can't let them be hurt in any way, is that clear?"
Jane nodded seriously. "Mm-hmm! Yes, headmaster, I understand!"
After the headmaster had left, Jane tied her hair up into a simple braid.
When she returned to the tiny classroom, Ziggy sat at the same place, reading quietly with a book in his hand.
Feeling as if something had shifted, Ziggy set down the book slowly.
Jane sat lightly in front of Ziggy. "Excuse me, did I disturb your reading?"
Ziggy shook his head and grinned at Jane. "You didn't, Ms. Jane, you're so brave today."
Jane was a little taken aback by the comment, it was as if she was absorbed in the moment.
Ziggy gestured by lifting the phone in his hand with the screen fixed on the school violence in the Minnow Nursery School. The star of the news was Jane Woods.
"Ziggy, honestly, I should be thanking you. If it weren't for your encouragement and your text message to the headmaster, we would both be in danger."
Jane looked down helplessly.
She could not believe that someone her age was saved by some five-year-old child.
It mattered not if it was her first time saying 'no' to evil powers.
Ziggy was the one who gave her the courage; it was all Ziggy.
A five-year-old genius.
Ziggy slowly closed the book he was reading.
He understood what Jane meant, of course. If he did not word the text that way, the headmaster would have dealt with the situation more privately with his people.
That would not have solved the issue but rather, it would have exacerbated it.
With that voice recording, the result would have been the same with or without her testimony.
The difference was whether she was brave enough to make the change!
Jane set down her phone and said to Ziggy, "I'm not anyone to you, why would you help me with all your might?"
Ziggy raised his gaze to meet Jane's before he squinted a little.
"Because this incident started because of me."
Jane was speechless for a moment.
Ziggy continued, "They said you didn't buy them dinner yesterday, but you didn't have time after school, did you? You were following me to the Chapman building, didn't you?"
Hearing Ziggy's words, Jane shook.
'How did he find out? I thought I was being super discreet, but how did he know?!'
"How did you find out, Ziggy?"
Ziggy shook his head. "I knew from the moment you allowed me to leave."
"This means that it was me who triggered this incident, so I can't just leave it alone. My mommy said that to me once."
Seeing as Ziggy was serious, Jane felt tears welling in her eyes.
Unable to stop herself, she took Ziggy into her arms and nodded while feeling his warmth.
A single tear trickled down her cheek.
"Ziggy, thank you, thank you so much! Thank you for making me stand on my own and stand up for myself..."
