The Fearsome Dragon Warrior

Chapter 22

"Shut up if you don't know anything! You can tell that those three are here to cause trouble with just a glance!" A parent who knew what was going on yelled.

"From what I can see, those thugs tried to hit on this pretty lady over there and found out that she was with someone who they could mess around with!" Another parent who had witnessed it all gloated out loud.

"But what's with this guy? I know him. He is the father of my daughter's classmate." Someone asked in confusion.

Several fathers winked amongst themselves. "He's obviously up to no good." One of them whispered.

Listening to the discussion happening around him, that Jackie fellow puffed out his chest and said proudly, "Why haven't you detained him yet? School is almost over. Will you take responsibility if this frightens our children?"

At the mention of school ending, the parents could no longer stand by and watch.

That's right. It didn't matter who was in the right or wrong, that youngster easily took down those three men. He must be dangerous. What if he went crazy and hurt their children…

The parents suddenly couldn't take it any longer. "How about calling the police? You can settle this at the police station, no matter what the issue is between all of you."

"Yes! Call the police! This public disturbance has disrupted our peace! Arrest them!" Some anxious parents cried out. NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.

Jackie gave the man who was still sitting on the floor a reassuring glance, as if to say, 'Don't worry. I've got this.' He yelled at the guards, "Why are you guards still standing there! Take him away!"

"You have no right to detain him without any cause!" Moira stood out from the crowd. "They were the ones who harassed us!"

The fathers watching turned green with envy and the pretty lady's anxiety. They didn't doubt what she said but it would have been more accurate if she had said 'he' instead of 'they'.

Jacob grew warm at the sight of her slight form standing in front of him.

His eyes took on a sly glint as he glanced at Jackie. So, he's trying to incite the parents into putting pressure on them? Hmph! They are nothing more than ants in the face of his power.

Jacob narrowed his eyes coldly. He gestured at the captain, "He's right. We don't want to scare the children. Drag them to the alley over there and take care of them."

"Yes, big bro- I mean, sir!"

The captain immediately nodded and followed orders. He waved his hand and the rest of the guards rushed out in formation. They grabbed the three thugs and dragged them into the alley.

Jackie was dumfounded at the sight. "Hey! What are you doing?!"

The parents watching were also shocked. Why were the security guards detaining the perceived victims?

"What's going on now?" She asked softly in bewilderment. Her fair features revealed just how confused she was at this turn of events.

It was more important for the captain to obey Jacob's order.

He took two steps and stood in front of Jackie. His face was as if it had been carved from stone. He said with a voice that left no room for argument, "Are you going to leave, or do I have to make you leave?"

"You…" Jackie looked outraged. But his eyes suddenly brightened.

He exhaled angrily and glared at the captain. "Who do you think you are? You're just a guard dog for this kindergarten. You're making a big mistake!"

The captain's eyes became like shards of ice. He was just about to educate this man who didn't know when to give up when an unyielding voice yelled out from the entrance, "What's going on here?!"
