At the end of the first drill, everyone’s hearts were pounding, and the principal’s face turned pale.
However, the children looked at Blake with fearful and excited eyes!
The way he effortlessly threw the gangster to the ground was incredibly cool!
The principal approached Blake and whispered, “Instructor MacNeil, can you give everyone some preparation time in advance…”
Blake sneered, “Do you think gangsters would give you time to prepare?”
The principal was at a loss for words for a moment and said, “But you’re scaring the children like this.”
Blake didn’t even look at him. His gaze swept over the children who were lined up.
His tone was cold and unwavering, “I believe our children are not that fragile. Although they may seem delicate like flowers, they have a strong heart hidden inside.”
It was absurd to think that the children would be easily startled or traumatized by loud noises or sudden movements…
Blake disagreed with this kind of educational ideology. He believed that children didn’t have fragile hearts, and any fragility was induced by adults.
He had his own principles and knew what was appropriate and what wasn’t.
Wars, bloodshed, brutal killings, beatings… Those were things that shouldn’t be shown to children, but a mere gangster rushing in? If even that was deemed unacceptable, what would happen when real gangsters came? Would the children be so frightened that they couldn’t even run?
The principal was speechless for a while. Blake’s strong presence silenced him, leaving him unsure of what to say.
With a sorrowful expression, he said, “However, if the children tell their parents about this when they go home, the parents will be angry.”
Blake glanced at him, “So, because you’re afraid of parents getting upset, you’re sacrificing necessary education?”
The principal was speechless.
You’re noble, you’re powerful. It won’t be you getting scolded, it’ll be me!
The principal rolled his eyes in his mind, but he heard Blake say, “After the drill is over, it’s your responsibility to calm the children’s emotions.”
“And if there’s any trouble, just have the parents come to me.”
The principal quickly agreed, “Okay, okay…”
Blake stopped paying attention to him and waited until the children were lined up before asking, “Kids, were you scared just now?”
Some children admitted they were scared, while others said they weren’t.
Of course, some were still crying…
Blake smiled, “It’s normal to be scared. Only when we acknowledge our fear can we be humble and respectful to the world. But it’s also normal not to be scared, which means you’re very brave!”
A child sobbed and cried, “Then what about those of us who are crying…”
Blake reassured, “Crying is also normal. Instructor MacNeil cried when I was your age…”
The children gradually quieted down.
Lilly’s eyes sparkled as she looked up at her father.
Daddy is amazing… What an idol!
He continued, “All of you have great strength hidden in your hearts. So, when another gangster rushes in later, do you remember what to do?”
One by one, the children raised their hands. Some said they would run, while others said they would listen to the teacher’s instructions…
Lilly raised her hand and shouted, “Run forward and take him down!”
Her eyes gleamed, and she waved her small fists, filled with excitement.
When Hannah heard this, she fiercely waved her fist too, “Yes! Run forward! Screw him!”
Blake, “…”
Teachers, “…”
The corner of Blake’s mouth twitched. Now he dared not underestimate the strength of this gentle little girl.
He said, “Lilly is very brave, but remember what Instructor MacNeil said. Under normal circumstances, children’s strength is far inferior to that of adults. Our first priority is still to save our lives.”
Lilly nodded, understanding.
Under normal circumstances–
She felt that her circumstances were not normal.
She had a red rope, so she could also fend off Uncle Edward!
But for now, she couldn’t cause trouble for her daddy, so Lilly obediently nodded, “I understand!”
Blake secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was genuinely worried that Lilly and the others would actually go up and fight the gangsters.
If Lilly threw her fists forward, it would be uncontrollable, and Hannah would follow suit.
After clarifying his instructions and pointing out the issues with the teachers, the slow response of the school police, and the lack of practical skills, Blake concluded.
Immediately after the conclusion, the second drill began, and this time it went much smoother. As soon as the alarm sounded, the teachers were on high alert and immediately directed the children to evacuate.
The children also grasped what to do, no longer simply obeying the teacher’s orders, but developing their own thoughts and comprehending the reason behind their actions.
Blake felt a great sense of relief as he observed the school police forcefully removing the screaming Edward.
Edward was seething with anger, on the verge of exploding.
This time, he couldn’t even handle a few school policemen.
Edward fought with all his might, and so did the school police.
Edward was outnumbered, facing eight opponents, and it took a full two minutes before he was expelled. In truth, he possessed considerable strength.
After instructing the drill, Blake proceeded to the second phase, teaching the school police how to prevent riots.
The children sat cross-legged on the field, drenched in sweat but brimming with excitement, watching as Blake was surrounded by seven or eight school police officers on the practice field.
The children cheered, “Instructor MacNeil, come on!”
Lilly then shouted, “Instructor MacNeil, come on!”
A whistle blew, and seven or eight school police officers charged towards Blake simultaneously.
Blake’s eyes turned icy and electric…
In less than half a minute, everyone was knocked down!
Children exclaimed, “Wow”
Lilly exclaimed, “Wow!”
She felt immense pride and kept saying, “This is my daddy! Look, this is my daddy~”
Lilly instantly became the most conspicuous kid in the school!
Blake couldn’t help but smile, his heart melting as he looked at his proud little girl…
As Lilly proudly introduced, “This is my father,” Edward couldn’t help but feel envious.
He snorted coldly, raising his hand and declaring, “I’ll take him on!”
