Chapter 2471
"Hey, wait!"
Renee patted the girl's shoulders.
"Holy crap!" The girls were already terrified from sneaking out at midnight. When someone suddenly patted one of their shoulders, she screamed in fear.
"Don't be afraid. I mean well. I just want to ask you about something." Renee realized how impudent she was. She raised her hands and expressed that she was not a bad person.
The girls sized Renee up. One of the girls from the senior class brightened. "I know you! You're the beautiful lady from the retention class and a genius in Maths. You also sought justice for another lady today and taught a bad guy a lesson, didn't you?"
"Yes, it was me." Renee looked at that girl vigilantly. "Do you know me?"
"I didn't at first, but I went to the retention class to watch the scene today. I saw how cool you looked when you slapped that man. I started admiring you. I even told my friends about you. You're a role model to us."
Renee became awkward and scratched her hair. "Haha! No, you're exaggerating. I just sought justice when I saw it. Don't copy me. Men are usually stronger than women. If you fight men, you might get in trouble."
"Miss, did you practice martial arts? How did you defeat that guy? You were awesome!" The girl's admiration for Renee grew. She looked at Renee with brightened eyes. "Can you teach me? I would like to learn. Then, I won't be scared if I run into bad guys who bully me!"
"Well, you can easily fight them if you sign up for any martial arts class. But that's not the point!"
Renee became speechless and wondered why her fans were everywhere. Undeniably, it would be easier for her to ask about Joanne's affairs.
"I would like to ask about the beautiful older lady who was locked up in the dark room. You guys talked about her. What happened?" Renee eagerly asked them about a few key points. It might be the only clue she could find.
"Oh, the beautiful older lady from the retention class! She got very famous the moment she started studying here. Many guys idolized her, and many guys in my class like her. They always went to the retention class just to see her," the girl explained jealously.
Renee felt that it was normal to have such a thought at such a young age. Usually, that kind of hostility wouldn't push them to harm the person involved.
"Did you guys see her tonight?" Renee kept asking questions.
"I did." A plump girl raised her hand and said carefully, "After the self-study session at night, she stood at the door of the class and kept looking around as if she were looking for someone."
"I wasn't back in the class at that time. She must be looking for me." Renee frowned and flexed her fingers as her anxiety grew. She was filled with deep self-reproach.
It would have been better if she had not left the class out of boredom and had waited for Joanne to leave together.
"Then, a guy from the sophomore class came to her and brought her to someplace else. He looked very anxious, and she left with him."
That plump girl told Renee everything she had witnessed.
"If that lady were locked up in a dark room, I'm sure that guy is the culprit!"
