After they learned that Mike had beaten that big, dumb Sam into the hospital, their gaze towards him changed.

Being so handsome and good at fighting gives me a real sense of security.

Regina felt inexplicably irritated when she saw the glares of those little bitches around her, who seemed to want to devour Mike.

Mike, her "prey," is clearly about to slip out of her control.

Over there, Coach George nodded slightly upon seeing Mike's clever answer and said, "Alright, you'd better think carefully about how to deal with the principal. This matter is probably not over yet..."

After subtly reminding Mike a few more times, and seeing that it was almost time, Coach George told everyone to stop discussing the matter and then officially announced the end of today's training.

Mike dealt with the team members who came to get closer to him with a few words, then pulled George aside and said, "Come on, come with me to the infirmary."

Seeing Mike's calm expression, little George couldn't figure out what he was thinking and exclaimed in surprise, "You've already sent Sam to the hospital, and you're still not going to let him go? You're a devil!"

"What are you talking about? Do I look like that kind of villain?" Mike patted George on the shoulder speechlessly and explained, "I'm going to get a medical examination to assess my injuries so I can explain it to the school leaders later."

After saying that, Mike lifted his jersey, revealing large bruises on his ribs and waist.

"Hiss~" Seeing the severe bruises, little George glanced at Mike, who seemed completely unaffected, and exclaimed admiringly, "You... you're tough!"

Mike said nonchalantly, "It's nothing, Sam is more seriously injured than me."

With his "Demon Body" trait, Mike's minor injury is really nothing. A good meal when he gets back might heal on his own.

When Mike arrived at the infirmary with George, he didn't see Sam, and even the infirmary staff were getting ready to leave.

Seeing the football team uniforms worn by Mike and his companion, the infirmary doctor asked, "What's wrong? Your injured teammate has already been taken to the town hospital."

The infirmary nurse, seeing the clothes Mike and the other person were wearing, clearly misunderstood and thought they were Sam's friends.

"We're not here to visit the wounded, but to conduct a medical examination to assess their injuries," Mike explained.

After saying that, he lifted up his team uniform again.

The infirmary teacher vividly remembered Sam's previous injury, and now seeing another player injured on the football team, she exclaimed, "Football is such a dangerous sport!"

Then, the school nurse gave Mike a quick check-up and said with a smile, "Student, this looks serious, but it's just a superficial injury. You'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Compared to the previous football player who suffered a "vital" injury, Mike's bruise is indeed only a minor injury.

Upon hearing this, Mike stretched out his arm and said, "Teacher, I think I might have a fracture in my arm. I need you to take a good look at it."

Seeing Mike's previous behavior, it didn't seem like he had a broken arm. The infirmary teacher frowned and took out a small hammer.

Next, no matter where the teacher tapped on his arm, Mike insisted that it hurt.

After several repetitions, the infirmary teacher's furrowed brows relaxed, and she looked at Mike with a strange gaze.

"Do you have a conflict with that injured rugby player from before?" the infirmary teacher asked.

Seeing that the infirmary doctor had guessed the answer, Mike didn't try to hide it. He said frankly, "That Sam wanted to teach me, the newcomer on the team, a lesson. Because of our differing philosophies, we did have some minor disagreements."

The infirmary teacher was a little surprised by Mike's candor.

However, relatively speaking, Mike, who is handsome, is indeed more likable.

At this point, George Jr. also fanned the flames, talking about Sam's usual misdeeds.

At the same time, Mike also took the time to ask about Sam's injury.

According to the infirmary teacher, Sam's injury wasn't too serious; he would be fine once his missing tooth was replaced.

"Teacher, do I need a cast for my arm?" Mike asked suggestively after learning about Sam's injury.

The infirmary doctor immediately saw through the other person's intentions. He shook his head and said, "I'll write you a medical report in a bit. As for the injury on your arm, a bandage should be enough."

Mike was very grateful for the understanding and kindness of the infirmary teacher.

Finally, Mike, with an exaggerated bandage around his neck and a medical report in his hand, left the school clinic satisfied.

When they got home, seeing Mike's exaggerated appearance, Connie's grandma excitedly asked why.

This time, Mike didn't hide anything and told Sam about what happened during the day.

As Mike's temporary guardian, Connie's grandmother immediately declared that she would go to Sam to seek justice.

In order to appease Connie's agitated grandmother, Mike had no choice but to tell her the "truth" and his plans.

Finally, he removed the bandages and moved his arms a few times to show that he was really okay.

"What a little rascal!" Knowing that Mike hadn't suffered any loss, Grandma Connie chuckled and scolded him, adding that even at school, she would stand up for Mike.

That evening, Mike and Connie's grandmother didn't go to Sheldon's house for dinner again.

At the restaurant, to express his apology, Mike personally cooked several specialty stir-fries.

The meal ended with Connie's grandma praising her.

Before going to bed, Mike received a phone call from Dennis.

The other party had already returned to São Paulo and was calling to let Mike know he was safe. He also asked if Mike was adjusting well to his new environment.

Mike naturally assured her that everything was fine with him there, and that Grandma Connie and the Sheldon family had been very kind to him.

After reassuring Denise, Mike called Aunt Kelly (Denise's partner) to say hello before hanging up.

For the next two days, Mike went all out, using his injury as an excuse to skip team training.

The conflict between Mike and Sam on the football field was not suppressed despite Coach George's warning.

Because of Sam's past misdeeds at school, after learning that he had been sent to the hospital, the students who had been bullied by him now regarded Mike as a hero.

Even the bandage around Mike's neck was seen as his medal.

Many female students, unaware of the situation, used the excuse of caring about Mike to gather around him again.

"Mike, the class has already formed a support group for you. If the school or Sam causes you any trouble, we'll find a way to help you..." During self-study, Lina, a pretty girl in the same class, came up to Mike and whispered.

For a while, these female classmates, out of fear of Regina's prowess, stopped bothering Mike.

Now, because of the assault incident, Mike has become a prominent figure at school.

As Mike's popularity at school increased, his female supporters became less afraid of Regina.

Meanwhile, in the principal's office, Principal Tom also called together all of Mike's teachers and asked them about Mike's performance in class.

Chapter 18 Trial

Although Mike has only been at the school for a few days, his excellent performance in class has already earned him the recognition of all his teachers.

In addition, Mike, a genius, had a friendly personality and wasn't as annoying as Sheldon. This made several of his teachers even more fond of him.

I know that Principal Tom called several people here to deal with the school violence incident that occurred two days ago.

Several of the teachers selectively said some good things about Mike.

Even Mike's homeroom teacher, Ms. Victoria, said that Mike was a good boy.

After collecting their opinions, Principal Tom nodded and dismissed the teachers.

Then, Mike was also called to the principal's office.

“Sam will be bringing your parents to school tomorrow to accuse you of intentional assault. I hope you’re prepared.” Principal Tom pinched the bridge of his nose with a headache, and seeing Mike’s obedient look, continued, “Of course, if it turns out you are innocent, the school will stand up for you.”

In the past two days, Principal Tom has also learned about Sam, a 12th-grade student, and his behavior at school can be described as that of a "scoundrel".

Therefore, the principal was more willing to help Mike, a good student, than the villain.

"Thank you for your concern, Principal." Mike, having received the other party's kindness, said, "I will prove my innocence."

Seeing Mike's confidence, Principal Tom didn't ask any more questions. He nodded and saw Mike out of the office.

The next day, someone leaked the news that the school was about to "try" Mike.

As a result, many students spontaneously gathered at the school gate.

After Mike and his guardian, Grandma Connie, entered the school, both sides of the road were filled with students from all grades.

Of course, most of them are girls.

"Mike, we support you!!!"

Lina, accompanied by Mike's supporters, cheered as if welcoming a victorious general.

Inspired by them, some students who had been bullied by Sam and some people who enjoyed watching the drama all cheered.

The scene was very lively.

Grandma Connie dressed up specially today, wearing the wide-brimmed sun hat that Mike gave her.

Seeing the lively scene on both sides, she smiled happily and waved to greet her enthusiastic classmates.

After having had her fill of being a "star," Grandma Connie whispered, "Mike, I didn't expect you to be so popular with the girls at school. You're much more popular than little George."

Mike hadn't expected Connie's grandmother to be so carefree, so he could only nod reservedly.

“Look at those three over there, their temperament and figures are really good, no less than female celebrities…” Grandma Connie said, raising an eyebrow at Mike and revealing a smile that any man would understand.

Mike followed her gaze and saw that the three women with stunning figures in the crowd were indeed very eye-catching.

When she saw Mike looking over, Karen smiled and waved to him, causing her chest to heave.

Amid cheers from his classmates, Mike and Connie's grandmother entered the principal's office.

Sam hadn't arrived yet. At this moment, besides the principal, only Coach George and Ms. Victoria, who had a stern face, were in the office.

Upon seeing the principal, Connie's grandmother immediately changed her demeanor, and she began to seriously accuse Mike of the unfair treatment he had received at school.

Principal Tom was a few years younger than Connie's grandmother, and he was no match for her when she was at full power.

Just then, Sam arrived at the school with his father, Grit.

Compared to Mike, who only had a bandage on, Sam looked much worse.

Because of the severe injury to his groin, he could only walk with his legs spread apart, swaying as he moved forward, looking just like a clumsy Donald Duck.

Moreover, the injuries on his face had not subsided; half of his face was swollen like a pig's head.

However, Sam's pitiful appearance did not elicit any sympathy from the students.

Those classmates who had been bullied by him and had silently endured it shouted words like "coward" and "softie" in the crowd.

These students believe that going to their parents after being bullied is a shameful act and a sign of weakness.

Sam's father, Grit, felt the scornful glances from both sides. He looked at his son, who walked like a duck, and muttered disgustedly, "Useless thing!"

Then, leaving behind the dawdling Sam, he strode towards the teaching building.

Seeing Sam abandoned by his father, the students present cheered loudly as if they had won another victory.

Meanwhile, as Connie's grandmother was scolding the school for not protecting Mike, Gritt pushed open the door and walked in.

This burly man, over six feet tall, exuded a strong sense of intimidation. He looked around the office, then glared at Mike and said angrily, "You're the one who beat my son into that grotesque state?"

Upon seeing the main character arrive, Grandma Connie, showing no fear, pulled Mike forward and scolded, "Sam is your son! Look at what your son has done..."

Grandma Connie pointed to the bandage on Mike's neck and continued, "Mike is such a good kid, and because of your son, his arm was almost ruined. Who knows what kind of long-term effects it might have! You have to take responsibility for this!"

Gretel had come on strong, but after being rebuked by Grandma Connie, his momentum weakened.

However, when he saw that Mike was completely unharmed, and even the bandage on his neck was tied in a neat bow.

This made the burly man, who was over 1.9 meters tall, feel somewhat comical and a little aggrieved.

Just then, the office door was pushed open again. Sam walked in, his eyes misty and his face looking pitiful.

Gretel ignored the humiliation his son had just suffered outside; seeing Sam's miserable state, he felt like he had found a "savior."

Pulling Sam forward as he entered, Gretel retorted sharply, "Look at my son, look what he's been done to..."

He first pointed to the injury on Sam's face, then pried open his son's mouth to reveal a mouth missing several teeth.

If circumstances allowed, Gretel even considered taking off Sam's pants and playing the victim again.

Grandma Connie was initially startled by Sam's pitiful appearance, but after regaining her composure, she quietly gave Mike a thumbs up.

Then, Connie's grandmother argued, "Your son only lost a few teeth, but Mike almost lost his arm..."

For a moment, only the sounds of Connie's grandmother and Gretel arguing filled the principal's office.

"Enough!" Principal Tom, whose head was buzzing from the noise, slammed his hand on the table to quiet the two men down. Then he looked at Gretel: "How do you plan to resolve your son's matter?"

Gretel glared at Connie's grandmother, then looked at Mike and said, "I want the school to expel this abuser and make him pay all my son's medical expenses and compensation for emotional distress."

Upon hearing that the other party wanted the school to expel McConnie's grandmother, she exploded, "That's impossible!"
