Greetings, Mister Principal

Chapter 127: Departure



Chapter 127: Departure

When everything was packed up, it was already noon the next day. Reiner visited Dr. Philip again, but they decided to leave the town on the afternoon train at the same time.

The steam train passing through the town of Sur ran every two days. The station was located in the east of the town. There were no people here on weekdays. For the townspeople, the outside world represented danger and terror.

Fina wore a dark brown dress with a small waistcoat. These were her mother's clothes. Combined with her glasses, Reiner suddenly felt that it was normal that Fina's father would fall in love with her mother.

She carried an old box in her hand, which was brought by her father when he came to this town. Now it contained her father's lifetime research.

Reiner went to the hospital with Fina first. Dr. Philip had already packed his luggage when they arrived. Philip had been in Sur for so many years, but he didn't have many things that he wanted to take away from this place. All he had in his two big suitcases were the documents about Fina's father's illness, and the data of all the patients he had contacted over the years.

Dr. Philip originally wanted to send those documents to a larger hospital for storage with the nurse first. But when he saw Reiner, he nodded slightly.

"Leave it to me."

Reiner cast the wizard's hand magic and lifted two large suitcases, which helped Dr. Philip a lot.

The group of four walked towards the station, but before they saw the shadow of the station, they saw a group of people first.

These were the townspeople led by the town mayor. Reiner saw several young people mixed in among them. He reached out and placed his hand gently on Fina's shoulder. He could feel that the girl was trembling slightly.

This was not timidity, but anger.

"Calm down, I'll deal with it."

Reiner whispered in Fina's ear, and then took a few steps forward.

His actions made the townspeople step back. These people still remembered Reiner's deterrence a few days ago, but they couldn't just watch these people leave under their noses.

"Are you here to see us off?"

Reiner asked. He looked at the town mayor and the people behind him. Perhaps it was one of these people who attacked Fina's father that day.

"You can't just leave like this, Fina Napishtim should stay in town."

The mayor said with no confidence. He was afraid, afraid that Fina would become stronger in the outside world, and then use other methods to retaliate against them.

"Why?"

Reiner thought it was a little funny. He had never met such a stupid guy.

"...She is a member of Sur Town, and I have a responsibility to protect her!"

The mayor seemed to have never expected Reiner to ask such a question. He was stunned before racking his brain to find out such a reason.

"From now on, she will no longer be a member of this town anymore."

Reiner took out a piece of paper. This was a contract letter he drafted yesterday. It said that Fina Napishtim would be hired as an assistant professor at Luna Nova Magical Academy, and according to the regulations of the Kingdom and Magic Association, a mage who was a professor in a school could live inside the school to facilitate management. In other words, Fina should now be considered a member of Luna Nova Magical Academy.

"I know that the mayor does not know how to read, so I will give you a simple explanation. If you have any objections, you can contact Lord Baron who is in charge of this place."

Reiner's words made the mayor blush.

'How dare he use the baron to suppress me! '

But for a while, the town mayor couldn't think of a way to retort him. He could only watch Reiner and Fina walk past them.

"Oh, right, there is one last thing."

Reiner stopped and said to the mayor.

"Mr. Napishtim lost a black box. I wonder if anyone has seen it?"

He asked, scanning the crowd. Several people's eyes were erratic, seeming to avoid Reiner's sight.

"How can we take his things?"

The mayor said with a look of disgust, and behind him, several people also responded the same way.

"Alright then, there are very precious gems in that box. It's such a pity."

Reiner sighed as if feeling helpless. He then turned around and led Fina to the station.

He wanted to give these people an opportunity but no one cherished them.

......

After Reiner left, the town of Sur seemed to have returned to its original calmness.

But a few young people were not so peaceful. As night fell, in a corner of the town, they gathered together.

"Kashin, we took it back together. It doesn't just belong to you."

A young man said. His words made everyone look at the town mayor's son who was leaning against the wall. He looked gloomy and looked around at the others.

"Wasn't it me who proposed to teach that old man a lesson? I was also the one who provided the information to you, right? The last suggestion to take away the black box was also made by me, right? So what made you think that you can have it?"

He had always been the leader of this group of people. As the town mayor's son, he felt that he was destined to lead these people. At that time, he decided to use Napishtim, whom his father didn't like the most, as his first training target. He led those people to sneak attack that weak old mage and snatched the black box he had been holding in his arms. At this time, the box was under his bed.

Normally, when Kashin said these things, no one would not want to argue with him. However, maybe because Reiner had made him lose his face in front of other people a few days ago, his prestige among this group of people had decreased a lot. His words actually didn't make them become silent.

"We want equal shares. Otherwise, we will report your murder to Lord Baron."

A woman said. She used to offer her body to please Kashin in the past, but at this moment, she decisively made up her mind and sided with the money.

"You are all responsible for Napishtim's death!"

Kashin threatened viciously. Several people seemed to be scared, but most of them were indifferent.

"Kashin, if you don't want to split it equally, I think we can use another method."

A tall man said indifferently. In the past, he would listen to Kashin because of his family background, but now he was also rebellious.

"What do you want to do..."

Kashin sensed that the atmosphere was not right, and secretly picked up a wooden stick by the wall.

But the others were faster. The tall man immediately grabbed Kashin's hand, and then other young people picked up the rocks on the ground and smashed them towards Kashin.

Ten minutes later, when they all realized that the stone in their hands had long been stained with blood, they stopped.

And Kashin in the middle of the crowd could no longer be called a human form, it was a filthy mixture of flesh and blood.

"We killed him..."

Until this time, someone realized what they had done.

"Don't panic, this is what he deserves."

The tall man trembled slightly, suppressing the fear in his heart, and said.

"Now we are all on the same boat. Next, we have to find the black box!"

Hearing what he said, the pale-faced people slowly turned their heads and looked at the mayor's house not far away
