Chapter 28 Punishment Notice Look at the Belly
The two young guests walked slowly and knocked on the door of the principal's office.
As if it had been expected, two cups of hot tea were already placed on the spotless desk.
The principal sat upright in the soft swivel chair behind his desk, his fingers folded on the tabletop, surveying the neatly arranged objects before him.
A spare key to the lounge, a video of the confession, patrol records, and... a lawyer's letter.
The indictment targets not only Ava Winters herself, but also Cagano's entire security department.
"Very well prepared, Mr. Vanser," the principal's voice was indistinct. His hawk-like gaze from behind his glasses scanned every piece of evidence, finally resting on the lawyer's letter. "But I didn't think things would develop to this point."
"Isn't that enough? The security of the lost spare key, the surveillance footage that was deleted for no reason..."
Lancelot counted on his fingers, paused, and raised his eyelids, revealing a sneer of contempt. "With such a poorly managed team, it seems Kagano is quite skilled at reducing costs and increasing efficiency. He should have no shortage of sponsorship money from the Vanser family."
The principal tapped his fingers lightly on the documents. He didn't respond immediately. He took a sip from his teacup and turned his gaze to Lancelot. "Winters will be punished for her jealousy and for trampling on Kagano's competitive spirit. Of course, the security department will also be cleaned up..."
Lancelot interrupted him and repeated with a smile: "Punishment?"
Enzo looked over nonchalantly and chuckled, as if he wasn't surprised at all.
The principal put down his teacup and said, "Punishment."
"You should reconsider this." Lancelot leaned forward, pushing the lawyer's letter toward him, and said calmly, "As you often say in your speeches, Kagano is a gathering place for talented people from all over the world. Countless eyes are watching here."
His Majesty and the Head of State, the Cabinet and the Military, even in the Senate, whether civilians or nobles, there are various factions, radical, conservative, neutral... Fortunately, the experience of unity in overcoming crises is enough to maintain balance for a long time.
but.
If this matter were to be exposed, no one could guarantee whether it would ferment to the point of breaking the balance.
The air in the office seemed to freeze. The principal raised his eyes, as if the young people in front of him were important enough for him to reconsider.
He leaned back in his chair, and behind him hung the golden griffin emblem of the Kagano school.
"It's a powerful bargaining chip, though I'd rather call it... a threat. It's a shame there's no need to submit this lawyer's letter to the Imperial Court. After all, bringing too much shame to the Winters family wouldn't be a good thing..."
The principal's eyes were like hooks, and with the heaviness of a man who saw through the world, he slowly added in a heavier tone, "For your friend."
Lancelot was still wagging his tail with a smile, but the smile in his eyes disappeared in an instant.
“Crack.”
The silence was broken by the sound of fruit being crushed.
"You know he's reckless when he's mad. Otherwise, Winters wouldn't have taken a year off to enroll this year. He's suffered one setback after another, so there's no reason to let him off lightly."
Enzo timely interrupted the increasingly tense conversation. He bent his knee, resting it on his other leg and shaking it, crunching on a red apple he had taken from the fruit bowl. "What's that saying? Oh, 'A cornered dog will jump over the wall.' He's not a dog, but a fox is in the canine family, so it's roughly the same..."
Mr. Principal: “…”
Lancelot tilted his head, narrowed his eyes and smiled kindly: "Thank you for the metaphor, but it is a derogatory term."
"My literary literacy is just that." Enzo threw the fruit core on the table and clapped his hands. His tone was firm and left no room for negotiation. "Ava Winters must leave Kagano, and all students deserve to know the reason."
The principal glanced at the table, his eyes becoming extremely sharp. "Is it necessary?"
Enzo: “Must.”
"Because you can't guarantee that in future actual combat matches or even in the interstellar league against the Federation, Winters won't once again cause trouble due to 'jealousy'."
Lancelot stood up and said, "For your own good," "Kagano's reputation is above all else. He won't allow anyone to trample on it, right?"
The best outcome is to keep hidden dangers within a controllable situation.
The principal laughed deeply, accepted all the evidence, and said that he would prepare a withdrawal document for the other party to sign. He also issued a valid document.
We promise that after this incident, Youan, a first-year student in the Department of Strategy, will not be affected in any way in terms of his eligibility for competitions, scholarships, or paper selection.
Lancelot frowned, but said nothing more, and they ended the conversation decently.
At this moment, the administrative district of Kagano was unusually quiet, and one could faintly smell the faint fragrance wafting from the surrounding flower beds.
Enzo stretched, as if to clear the turbid air from his lungs, took a deep breath and exhaled slowly: "Huh, done."
He scratched his hair in annoyance and sneered sarcastically while sending a message to Ji Qiao. "Given the annoying abilities of old-fashioned nobles like Winters, it's no wonder the elders are quarreling and fighting all day long."
Lancelot's cold and gloomy voice drifted from beside him: "The good news is that most of them are old men who are not in very good health."
"Ha, you're right." Enzo rarely agreed with his harshness in this regard. He glanced at him but didn't see the other person showing his usual smiling expression.
Enzo bumped his shoulder in confusion: "Hey, what's wrong with you?"
Lancelot was nearly knocked into the fountain beside him. After stabilizing himself, he swung his tail and replied nonchalantly, "Nothing."
Enzo stared at him for a while, then suddenly curled his lips: "You've done well enough, Vanser."
Lancelot paused.
"For people like us who are second-generation rich and only have family titles," the noble young master of Plankin shrugged and disappeared into the night before him.
Lancelot stood there for a moment, the cold night wind making his hair burn like wildfire.
He should indeed feel fortunate. If he were an ordinary student with no power or influence, he probably would not be able to successfully obtain the fairness he expected. Even his qualification to sit at the negotiating table only came from the resounding surname on his head.
Unfortunately, this is the extent of what we can do.
Lancelot lowered his eyes to look at his reflection in the fountain, a sarcastic arc appeared on the corner of his mouth.
The next morning, the news that Ava Winters had been expelled spread throughout Kagano, and the school's official bulletin board posted a notice that the Security Department was conducting a thorough investigation and reorganization.
Although there is no direct evidence pointing to this, the students in the school have already pieced together the events by associating them with the Rising Stars Competition that just ended.
When Ava appeared at the most remote school gate in Kagano with her luggage, her expression was terribly pale. She stared at the family members walking towards her for a moment and sneered, "Congratulations, my dear brother."
"There's nothing to congratulate."
Lorion nonchalantly helped her straighten the braids that hung down her chest. He raised his eyelids, a hint of pity in his eyes, as if he was looking at a fool. "It's just that the Winters family doesn't need an heir with low-level means."
Ava didn't hide the anger in her eyes and raised her hands.
But before her slap could land, Lorion had already pushed her towards the servants waiting beside her.
"Have a nice time in the Commonwealth, sister."
Subject: [So...was it really Sister Snowferret who broke the Bunny King's Hylama Harp?]
1L basically has solid evidence, and he won't be expelled unless he commits a serious offense. But I'm surprised that Kagano treats the noble so hard.
2L Tsk, don’t you see who you offended? Besides, Plankin and Vanser have always been of the same blood.
3L is a good start, at least it sets a precedent for ordinary students without backgrounds being suppressed in the future! Winters is really disgusting, and I guess the one who stayed is not a good person either!
4L loves the Rabbit King. So many people took the opportunity to scold him. Blast those bastards to death!
5L shark shark shark!
6L, stop being so critical. Can we discuss something practical, like how to catch up with the Bunny King?
7L I write love letters every day, my hands are sore, but I still haven’t received a reply!
8L, it's just a rabbit, who's into it? His family is poor, and he's being controlled by his aristocratic roommate who's like a dad. Why are you guys praising him so much? There's even someone selling his photos. Can you please sell me one? I'm begging you!
9L can't hold the gun, I will burn it for you when I have it
10L Oh, someone above reminded me, I almost forgot that he has a witch concubine who can bewitch the rabbit’s heart!
11L Does the Bunny King prefer fox-type beastmen? I'm white! Look at me, King! [Image]
…
Why did 74L suddenly release photos? The Bunny King's concubine selection building is next door!
75L Speaking of which, when will Bunny King go to the training ground again? His whip kick videos are so popular, it's so cheap for that guy Calix. Why can't he just kick me? (It would be even better if he wore black stockings!)
76L quick! Block this perverted @Administrator
77L XP Freedom! What's wrong with me wanting to give my baby □□!
…
285L So... there is really no constructive advice?
286L is so hard! I've been working all night to finish Bunny King's StarNet account, either doing raffles or solving puzzles... Oh, by the way, is that cake picture of him and his brother? Hmm... It makes me so sad. I want to buy him a hundred little cakes and feed him so much!
287L Oh, I think you want to feed yourself.
How to catch up with 288L? It’s easy. If you tell him that the Jiangxiang pancake you bought can do a backflip, he will definitely come running to you!
I wouldn't do that.
Youan tapped the screen showing the campus forum with his little paw and turned to the selfie of the white fox. He tilted his head and thought about it, and still felt that the red one looked better and more festive.
He was very satisfied with his aesthetic taste. He took a cheese stick made by Fiona as a reward, put it in his mouth and started chewing it.
Youan is not a picky eater. When there is enough food, he eats without restraint. He even eats all the snacks that You Tuantuan can't finish.
When Lancelot came out of the room, he saw a dwarf rabbit lying on the sofa in the middle, with its face pressed against the sandbag cushion (the smallest size), and its soft belly formed a rather round arc.
Tsk, she feels like she’s pregnant.
"Look at the belly."
Lancelot leaned over, smiled, and flicked his legs, trying to turn him over.
How can this be!
The usually docile dwarf rabbit suddenly turned over, and its hind legs kicked and kicked like a Hot Wheels, almost leaving a shadow.
Lancelot lost his temper after being kicked, and he threw down the glove: "Come on! Kick me to death!"
Youan's eyes widened in shock. He had never heard of such a request in his entire life.
He raised his plump hind paw and tentatively stepped on Lancelot's palm.
Like clouds falling from the sky, Lancelot subconsciously tightened his palms and held them tightly.
