Chapter 47: Pity, You’re Not The Tough One

“Student, is it true what he said? Did you break into the school’s computer room?” The middle-aged man turned directly to Finn Lewis. Finn glanced at him, wondering whether he was being foolish or if he thought Finn was. Even if it were true, was he really going to admit it?

“Sir, let’s be clear. If you make baseless accusations, I can sue you for defamation! When something like this happens, there’s only one explanation culprits should have no place to hide.” Finn replied defiantly.

“It was him! It must have been him! He’s just retaliating. I gave him a school discipline warning this morning, and then all this happened. How could it be so just coincidental?!” Robert Thomp was disregarding everything now, with so many pieces of evidence, he couldn’t escape anyway.

“Oh, you know, if I hadn’t got into this mess today, I would have loved to dig up some evidence against you. But someone beat me to it. A school discipline warning you say? You doled that out yourself, didn’t you? Did the school discipline me? Do you think you’re so tough that you can run things single-handedly at this school? Unfortunately, the real tough guy is not you! You’re just like a homeless dog now, tsk tsk.” Finn said with a smirk.

Thomp’s face turned beet red, Finn wondered if his blood vessels would burst. Seeing him about to say something, Finn waved him off, pointing at the surrounding students and yelled, “Do you fucking see this? Do you know why so many students are gathering here? Do you think they’re here to defend you? Let me tell you, they’re all here to celebrate! To celebrate the fact that you, you son of a bitch, are finally getting what you deserve!”

Finn spoke out loud enough for everyone around him to hear. Feeling unsatisfied, he jumped onto the hood of his car and shouted, “Fellows, tell me, are we here to see this bastard get taken down today or not!” By the end, he was almost screaming.

‘Yes!”

“Well said! We support you. We’ve been sick of this old bastard for a while

“Well put! I regret not putting a bag over his head when he was heading back home at night!”

Choruses of approval echoed around them, followed by loud cheering. Finn bowed to the crowd. The middle-aged man couldn’t help but smile; he, of course, knew Thomp was crooked, but he had no idea Finn could be so outspoken, especially given the youthful energy of the students around.

“Young man, come down quickly. This is just an investigation, nothing’s settled yet! When it is possible to spare someone’s feelings, then those feelings should be spared,” the middle-aged man responded helplessly.

“Sir, sparing people is not said for someone like him! I won’t let him go. I’m going to tell everyone here. I believe some might know the victims personally, so I’ll just say it! Whoever can contact the victim, willing to testify in court, proving that Robert Thomp harassed her, I’ll personally pay out 20,000 Flame Nation coins as compensation for the victim! No limit! Everyone look, Headmaster Green is here, and I’ll donate 20 million Flame Nation coins to the school as a starting fund! If that’s not enough, I’ll top it up! If anyone can provide direct evidence, I’ll personally give an extra 50,000 as a reward!”

Finn shouted at all the students around him. Robert Green and others were initially preparing to talk Finn down when they heard his earlier words, but before they could reach him, they were shocked by what they just heard.

“You!” The middle-aged man below was also dumbfounded. He never expected Finn to take such steps. This had nothing to do with him, yet he was giving away 20 million! This wasn’t two hundred, or twenty thousand, this was twenty million! How many people even make this much money in their whole lives, and here he was just throwing it out there!

“Look, man, we won’t take your money. Rest assured, as long as there’s evidence, we’ll definitely hand it over to the police! But for the victim compensation, we should thank you on behalf of the victims!” Another strong voice echoed from the crowd, sounding like a northerner.

“Haha, that’s straightforward! But, I’m a victim too, oddly enough, given a punishment. But, I’ve decided to pay, after all, there’s a saying – I’m rich and I can be willful!” Finn laughed heartily.

Inside the car, Finn’s roommates were astonished, almost dropping their jaws. “Holy shit, is this the same Finn who could barely let out a fart in a day? This is some gap, isn’t it?” Daniel Pan stuttered.

“I mean, bro, no words, Finn is just… Awesome!”

Finn had already jumped down from the hood of the car amidst the applause.

Seeing Headmaster Green up close, Finn walked over and said, “Headmaster Green, could you please give me the school’s account? I’ll transfer 20 million there in a bit.”

“This…” Headmaster Green couldn’t help but smile bitterly. A 20 million donation, to be honest, the school had never received such a large amount from a single person. The question was, wasn’t this putting the school on a hot plate? There was such a big problem in the school and it was the students who were paying for it?

Problem was, if he didn’t accept it, his reputation would probably be ruined. “Alright, I’ll have my secretary tell you the school’s account in a while. Also, students, please disperse. This serious incident occurred, and as the headmaster, I bear inescapable responsibility. I don’t have as much money as Finn, but if the related departments confirm that these incidents are true, I will personally donate 200,000 as compensation to the affected students. The amount might not be much, but it’s a token of my apology.”

Green’s words were sincere and heartfelt. Finn rolled his eyes at him, man, politicians sure know how to gain favor. The momentum Finn had gathered was half snatched away by Green’s words. But Headmaster Green was a decent man, so Finn didn’t take it to heart.

Two middle-aged men flanked a faint Thomp, due to anger, and started walking towards their car. Finally, the leading middle-aged man walked up to Finn with a peculiar look on his face and said, “Young man, you’ve got some spirit. But even if you’ve got money, you can’t be so prodigal. Do more useful things for society.”

Unable to hold back, Finn burst out laughing. “Uncle, we’re still young, if we don’t go crazy now, when would we? Besides, this money I’m offering is

compensation for the victims, that counts as doing something useful for society, right? As for being prodigal or not, I earned this money myself, I’m happy to spend it.”

The middle-aged man choked on his words, not saying anything further, waving his hand and walking away..
