Chapter 1286: Not our fault (2)
"Madam Kang, please calm down. We can discuss this matter thoroughly, if it turns out that your daughter is only hiding and she is not in any danger then you will be the one who will be embarrassed," Headmaster Fan said to Madam Kang who paused in her actions. She wanted to say something but then Headmaster Kang opened his mouth and stated, "This is not the first time she did something like this anyway."
Kang Qiao was a smart child but at the same time, she was problematic as well. Because she was doted on by both of her parents, her temper was not the best, she would run away from the house and was keen on skipping school. Kang Qiao was a notorious child and if not for the fact that she got good grades, she wouldn't be well-liked by her teachers.
Upon hearing the words of Headmaster Fan, Madam Kang frowned. She looked at him with a distasteful expression and questioned, "Are you threatening me?"
"I am not threatening you, Madam Kang. I am an educator, how can I threaten the parent of one of our students?" Headmaster Fan smiled politely at the words of Madam Kang. He did not seem offended instead he seemed rather calm. "I am just trying to make you understand that it is not clear to any of us whether your daughter is hiding and pulling a prank on all of us or is really in a dangerous situation."
He then turned to his teachers who then nodded as one of the teachers spoke up, "We have been looking for your daughter, Madam Kang and we haven't seen any signs of her. It's not sure if she is harmed in any way."
"So are you going to wait for her to get harmed and then start looking for her seriously?" Kang Jiu snapped at the teachers and Headmaster harshly.
"Believe it or not my uncle can ruin your career. You better bring my cousin safe and sound, if I see even a strand of her hair missing then you all can forget about teaching in this country!"
Her threats were not empty if the Kang family really made a move then there was a chance that they might lose their bread and butter. The teachers all looked at the headmaster who smiled at Kang Jiu and nodded. "I will make sure of that."
After Madam Kang left under Kang Jiu's insistence, all the teachers turned to look at Headmaster Fan and questioned him one by one.
"Why did you say something like this Headmaster?"
"That's right, we all know that Kang Qiao is gone for good. She is not missing for three days but a week!"
"Even if she was hiding from us for the sake of pulling a prank, she would have come back by now!"
"Silence! Do you think I am not aware of that? I know that too as well," Headmaster Fan said angrily. "But if you think that we can deal with this matter by telling the truth then you might as well try it. Did you not see how that woman threatened us? She would definitely ruin our lives if we were to tell the truth."
"Then what do you want us to do?" One of the teachers asked as he looked at Headmaster Fan.
"Since they want to look for her....then we might as well bring them along."
Headmaster Fan and the rest of the teachers were not having a good time either. They did not know what was going on but every night a single child would vanish from the training camp. At first, it was only those kids that did not have any backgrounds, thus HeadMaster Fan and the rest were not that worried.
They could always say that the child was lost while exploring the forest that was behind the training camp but it was a different case with the children who had a background behind them!
Just like Kang Qiao and the girl who went missing last night.
If things continued to escalate in this way, then Headmaster Fan was worried that along with college their entire career would be ruined as well!
"But.."
The teachers were not a fool. Even though they only admitted to the death of the girl who went missing after Kang Qiao, they did not forget the children who went missing and were never found. It was clear that something was wrong in the forest!
Even they did not dare to head inside the forest in the night. They only pretended to go inside before coming back. If they were to take two women with them, it was unknown whether they would come out of the forest or not.
"Do you think that we have any other choice?" Head Master Fan said to the teachers with an eye roll. "Though this sounds cruel, it's better to wash our hands on two lives rather than lose all our lives. Think about it carefully, if Madam Kang brings this matter to the police everyone will know that we could not protect the children and all kinds of questions would be raised against us. If that happens what would happen to your children and family? Do you want to watch them suffer?"
Headmaster Fan also wanted to look after the children with a sincere heart however as the situation continued to become more and more worse, he could only harden his heart and think of saving himself first.
No one could blame him for his decision, after all, he had two kids and a wife to take care of, how could he let these women ruin his life?
He could only hope that they would disappear along with the children, this way at least their lives would be safe!
He thought about it and said to the rest of the teachers, "Just bring them along. We will see what happens later on, it's not like we are killing them. If they die because of some unknown reasons, what does that have to do with us?"
