After Beating the Game, I Became the Villain BOSS-Chapter 182 - 154: Kindhearted Children

[October 3rd, 9:02 PM]

[Moonlight Mansion in the Lakefront Business District, Xinghai Cinema]

315 teachers and students from Chiyang Attached Primary School were trapped inside Xinghai Cinema. None of the students or teachers had ever experienced anything like this. Everyone was terrified and at a loss, with the sound of soft sobbing echoing everywhere.

Nannan had always been sensitive to the beauty of nature. She loved the rustling sound of leaves in the breeze in the early morning and the rhythm of the stars in the night sky after the sunset.

People who are sensitive to the beauty of nature are often kind because they understand how precious this beauty is and how much it deserves to be cherished.

Among so many teachers and students, Nannan was one of the few who didn't cry. Even though she started school early, making her a year younger than most of her classmates, she didn't shed a tear at this moment.

Because she sensitively realized that everyone was crying, everyone was scared.

If she also cried, it would make everyone even more frightened.

With this thought, Nannan took out candies that she brought from home and began to distribute them to her classmates around her, gently saying, "Come on, don't cry, are you hungry? I'll share some candies with you."

"Miaocui Jiao, you have low blood sugar, right? Here's the sweetest one for you, it's really tasty."

"Zhuangzhuang, you love eating candy the most, always stealing mine. Here, I'll give you two today~"

"Umm... the candy is running out... Yu Zai, I still have one strawberry-flavored one here, would you like it? Hmph, if you want it, wipe away your tears. If you keep crying, I'll eat it myself~"

The children, while sobbing, tremulously took the candies from Nannan.

With candy in their mouths, their crying did subside quite a bit. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

After distributing the candies and calming her classmates, Nannan walked over to Teacher Xiao Mei, who was curled up in the corner.

Nannan stroked her head and said sweetly, "Teacher Xiao Mei, don't be afraid. Our parents and the sheriff are outside, they'll find a way to save us."

"Teacher, I remember you talked about something in class today. You said that those shining stars in the sky, many of them are celestial bodies like the sun."

"Are there planets like ours near these stars? With people like us on them? Will we meet them in the future? Can we be friends with them?"

Teacher Xiao Mei could tell that Nannan wasn't really asking questions but was trying to distract her, to make her less scared.

Teacher Xiao Mei tried to go along with this kind child, but thinking about the many bloodthirsty thugs nearby, her sobbing soon overcame her again, and she whimpered, "I'm sorry, Nannan... teacher is too scared now... I can't answer your questions..."

Nannan held Teacher Xiao Mei's head in her arms, softly saying, "Oh, it's okay, it's okay, then I'll save this question for class, when Teacher Xiao Mei teaches the general knowledge lesson again, I'll ask, okay?"

Teacher Xiao Mei hugged Nannan's waist, crying, "Thank you, Nannan... teacher is all grown up and still crying, so useless..."

Nannan gently patted her head, like caring for a big child: "Shh... no, Teacher Xiao Mei is very brave. Last time when a little snake came into the classroom, it was you who chased it away. Teacher Xiao Mei is the bravest person, don't cry, don't cry."

As Nannan comforted Teacher Xiao Mei, a Crow's Nest thug came over and kicked her aside: "Why so much talking? Shut up! Or I'll shoot you!"

Nannan held her arm and bowed to the Crow's Nest thug, softly saying, "Sorry, uncle, for causing you trouble..."

Seeing her being so polite and cooperative, the Crow's Nest thug didn't bother her, snorted coldly, and continued to patrol.

Nannan squatted beside Teacher Xiao Mei, holding her swollen arm without making a sound.

A moment later, Teacher Xiao Mei suddenly clutched her stomach, her face looking a bit unwell.

Nannan quietly asked, "What's wrong?"

Seeing Teacher Xiao Mei hesitating, Nannan realized, "Does the teacher need to use the bathroom?"

Teacher Xiao Mei nodded, her face burning red.

"I'll go ask for the teacher." Nannan said, raising her hand.

"Nannan!..." Teacher Xiao Mei was startled, unable to stop her in time.

A Crow's Nest thug saw Nannan raising her hand and walked over with a cold face: "What?"

Nannan cautiously asked, "Uncle, the teacher's stomach is uncomfortable, can she go to the bathroom?"

The Crow's Nest thug glanced at Teacher Xiao Mei and said coldly, "Hold it, or do it right here."

Teacher Xiao Mei was a traditional woman; doing such a thing in front of so many people was impossible for her.

Seeing Teacher Xiao Mei's face becoming increasingly strained, Nannan thought of a solution.

She whispered to the classmates around her, "Everyone, give me your jackets."

Nannan gathered up the jackets, piling them to form a clothing pile that could absorb moisture.

Then she pulled some classmates together, holding hands to form a human wall around the clothing pile to block the view.

She turned back to Teacher Xiao Mei and said, "Teacher, you can use the bathroom here."

Teacher Xiao Mei, although feeling very embarrassed, couldn't hold it any longer and squatted on the clothing pile.

The Crow's Nest thug didn't interfere. After all, it wouldn't be beneficial to make someone sick from holding it too long.

But a few minutes went by, and the surroundings were silent except for faint sobbing.

Nannan realized it was too quiet, so Teacher Xiao Mei was afraid of making embarrassing sounds. She tightened her grip on the classmates' hands and began to lead them in singing a nursery rhyme:

"In the sunny morning, little birds sing cheerful songs. Flowers gently sway in the breeze, and we dance together. Butterflies flutter on the grass, chasing the rainbow's tail. Laughter drifts through the air; the joy of childhood never ends."

Finally, under the cover of Nannan and the others, with the singing, Teacher Xiao Mei finished using the bathroom, stood up with her skirt, and tearfully thanked these kind children.

After a few minutes, Muto Dongying strode into the cinema.

A thug approached him and asked, "Mr. Muto, how's the situation?"

Muto Dongying's hawk-like eyes scanned the crowd, finally landing on Teacher Xiao Mei.

He pointed at Teacher Xiao Mei.

The thug understood and went over to grab Teacher Xiao Mei by the hair, dragging her out.

"Ah! What are you doing?!" Teacher Xiao Mei immediately burst into tears, collapsing and struggling as she was dragged towards the exit, like a lamb to the slaughter.

The sudden change caused screams to erupt in the cinema, and the children, terrified, huddled together, wailing.

Nannan also started crying anxiously. She quickly caught up with Muto Dongying, grabbing the hem of his kimono and looking up with teary eyes, said, "Don't bully Teacher Xiao Mei!"

Muto Dongying stopped, turned to look at Nannan, his eyes full of depth.

"Oh~ Don't bully Teacher Xiao Mei, huh?" He grinned, revealing his white teeth, smiling like a devil.

"Then I'll take you instead."
