Chapter 395: I’ll Make You Feel the Pain of Being Burned
The other students had already left, and there was a school fence nearby. Therefore, for a while, no adults saw them. They only vaguely heard sounds of crying. Fortunately, an adult came then and finally put out the fire.
However, the matter had blown up. As Mu Jingzhe listened to the police report about the incident and rushed to the hospital, her hands couldn’t help but tremble. She was only concerned about one thing.
“Is Xiao Wu alright? Did he get burned?”
She hadn’t expected such a thing to happen. What were those kids thinking?!
“We were notified that the burns aren’t very serious, but we won’t know the details until we get to the hospital.”
Mu Jingzhe felt increasingly worried when she heard that. As she rushed to the hospital, her heart skipped a beat. Fortunately, the injuries on Xiao Wu’s body weren’t serious. “There are some burns. He should recover after applying medicine for a while. The same goes for the scalp wound on the back of his head.”
“Mommy, I’m fine. Don’t worry too much.”
Xiao Wu had a hospital blanket draped over his shoulders. The medicine had already been applied to his back, and it was slowly taking effect. He had already recovered from the shock and could even comfort Mu Jingzhe. However, he was still a little disheveled. His hair was messy, and a lot of the hair on the back of his head had been burned off. When one got closer, one could even detect a faint burnt smell.
Just like Ji Buwang, who had never had a short hairstyle before, Xiao Wu’s hair actually looked better when it was longer. Xiao Wu didn’t mind if his hair was longer, but he hadn’t expected it to be burned.
“You scared me to death. How did this happen?”
Mu Jingzhe felt lingering fear in her heart, and her legs were limp. At the thought that Xiao Wu could have suffered burns on a large part of his body and be put in danger, she felt regret.
“I should have picked you up.”
“There was no need, Mommy. This was just an accident.” Xiao Wu was helpless as he stroked Mu Jingzhe’s face and wiped the sweat off her palms. “Mommy, don’t worry too much. I’m fine.”
The county city wasn’t big. Starting from elementary school, the students would either go home together or play together. Although some kids were playful and didn’t go back on time, no major problems had occurred.
The parents of the brats who had gotten into trouble also rushed over when they heard the news. All of them were ashamed and said that they hadn’t taught their children well. They brought Xiao Wu nutritional supplements and offered to pay his hospital bills, not shirking responsibility or anything like that.
“I’ll break his legs later. I’m sorry, I’m really sorry.”
The parents knew Xiao Wu and were very glad that their children could be in the same class as him. They had kept asking their children to learn from him.
Since Xiao Wu was promising, they thought that their kids might be imperceptibly influenced by him and learn from him. At the very least, it would be good for them to get to know Xiao Wu. Becoming classmates also required the help of fate.
Who would have thought that their children would cause such an incident? They didn’t even dare imagine something happening to this exquisite little person.
They were all adults and they were aware of Xiao Wu’s value, so the more afraid they were, the more they apologized. They were so anxious that their faces were covered in sweat and filled with regret.
“It’s all my fault for smoking. I didn’t notice that he stole the lighter. I’ll definitely quit smoking in the future.”
Mu Jingzhe was initially furious, but when she saw their sweaty faces, she couldn’t bring herself to say nasty words.
However, just because they had a good attitude, it didn’t mean that she would let their children off easily. Mu Jingzhe made up her mind. She had to show the brats the severity of this matter and make them feel the pain of being burned.
Xiao Wu’s injuries weren’t severe, so they followed the police back to the station. Mu Jingzhe quickly saw the children, just like she wished. However, the children in the police station were in a different state than she had imagined. They were standing like quails with their messy hair. It was obvious that they had been taught a lesson by their parents, and each of them was more miserable than the last.
The pants of the brat who had set the fire were wet. It was unknown if it was because he was frightened or because he had peed himself due to the beating, but his eyes were swollen from crying and he even burped.
When the group of them returned and saw their parents, the children couldn’t help but tremble. As soon as they spotted Xiao Wu and saw that he was fine, they heaved a sigh of relief and felt guilty and fearful.
Seeing that they had been taught a lesson, Mu Jingzhe finally calmed down a little and suppressed the urge to go forward and tear the children apart or set them on fire.
However, Mu Jingzhe still felt that this wasn’t enough. She had to show them how terrifying fire was.
Although Mu Jingzhe didn’t tear them apart, the brats were still frightened by her sinister gaze.
They had an impression of Mu Jingzhe, who was one of the parents. She was probably the most special parent among those who often picked up and brought their children to school. In addition, she could drive and she looked pretty, so many students were envious of Xiao Wu.
However, Mu Jingzhe’s current appearance was terrifying. What Mu Jingzhe said and did next left a deep trauma in the children’s hearts.
She picked up the lighter they had used before. “This is the lighter that was lit previously. Fellow parents and police officers, can you let me play a small game with them to show them how terrifying fire is by letting them experience it personally?”
When they saw Mu Jingzhe’s expression, the hearts of the parents and the policemen skipped a beat. A policeman quickly shouted, “Don’t be rash! I know you are the student’s mother, but please calm down. Don’t burn the children.”
Mu Jingzhe shook her head. “I didn’t say that I wanted to burn the children. Although I said that I wanted them to experience it themselves, I can’t burn them directly. I know my limits.”
After Mu Jingzhe denied it, she switched on the lighter and squatted beside the child who had set the fire. She grabbed his hand and pulled it toward the flame. His parent’s expression changed, and the brat also started struggling. Soon, he broke free and burst into tears. “It hurts. Auntie, don’t burn me.”
“You feel pain too? How dare you play with fire when you know it hurts!”
“I’m sorry, Auntie. I’m sorry. I won’t dare do it again. I now know it hurts…” The child looked at Mu Jingzhe and cried uncontrollably.
“It’s good that you know. Just think about it. It hurts even after that short while. Do you know how much the fire burning one’s body hurts?”
The children were forced to feel the intensity of the fire by Mu Jingzhe, who was holding their hands. The parents were ashamed and uneasy as they watched from the side. Mu Jingzhe said directly, “As parents, your attitude is not bad, so I won’t do much. However, if your attitude is wrong, I won’t mind teaching your kids a lesson on your behalf and letting them roast by the fire a little longer.”
The children wailed in fear. Later on, they had nightmares about Mu Jingzhe holding their hands and roasting them. In the end, their hands were roasted until they were sizzling with oil.
They were frightened badly. Although they had just been beaten up, they still looked for their parents out of habit, wanting to find some comfort.
In the end, just as they threw themselves into their parents’ arms, before they could say a word, they were beaten up by their father and mother again. “Who told you to bully your classmates? Who told you to play with fire? Do you know how serious it is to set a fire? To think you actually did it. I should just beat you to death!”
Seeing that the parents kept hitting them, the police wanted to stop them, but the parents said that they didn’t have to. “If we don’t teach them a lesson today, they’ll have to spend the rest of their lives in jail. Why don’t we just beat them to death instead?”
The entire police station was filled with wails and apologetic cries. After the beatings finally stopped, the school intervened. First, it was the form teacher and the teacher-in-charge. Then, the principal, the vice-principal, and the dean.
