The situation within the school was becoming increasingly chaotic.
At the outset, due to the potential harm posed by tear gas, a decision was made to evacuate both students and teachers to the field.
However, inexplicably, as word spread, the rumors grew more and more absurd!
"Hurry, hurry! Someone brought a bomb to school. Let's evacuate to the field!"
"What? Are nukes allowed in school now?!"
"Quick, the aliens have confirmed an attack on Earth. Our school's their first target!"
The teachers worked hard to maintain order.
Moreover, the school regularly organized fire drills and earthquake drills to ensure the students evacuated rapidly and without incident.
Only once all the students had evacuated did the teachers finally join them on the field.
"This school handled the incident quite well!"
"Indeed, it was very impressive. The dedication to drills is evident!"
"What touched me the most was that the teachers waited for the students to evacuate before leaving!"
"It brings back memories of my former teachers. These are the real caretakers!"
"Look at that portly principal. He's drenched in sweat, yet he's still helping organize the students!"
"All this chaos was caused by the young girl who brought tear gas and a handgun to school!"
"When the police are done here, they might go after her father."
"She was just giving a speech about 'My Dad', and now she's going to watch her daddy get arrested!"
Despite Xia Zixin's relatively mature mindset, she remained a child. She was unaware of the current situation.
She wanted to ask around, yet upon seeing her homeroom teacher and Saa's anxious expressions, she hesitated to speak up.
By now, students were circulating rumors that the Earth was on the brink of explosion.
Many students were so frightened they began to cry.
Both the homeroom teacher and Saa felt helpless.
At that moment, their gazes happened to land on Xia Zixin.
She stood there while still in a daze. Her wide eyes were blinking innocently.
The two exchanged a wry smile.
The culprit responsible for this chaos was likely clueless.
Soon enough, police personnel arrived.
First, they cordoned off the school building to prevent unauthorized entry.
Then, they began to question Saa about the situation.
Upon learning that a student had arrived with a pistol and tear gas, the questioning officer was bewildered.
Wasn't this stretching the bounds of reason?
Could a lifelike model have been mistaken for real guns and tear gas?
Otherwise, how could a child possess these items?
Regardless, the situation was already out of control.
Even though the chances of them being fake were high, caution was necessary.
The captain leading the operation approached and asked Xia Zixin, "Little girl, did you bring a pistol and tear gas?"
Xia Zixin hesitated briefly before nodding. "Dad said the police are good people. You can't lie to them!"
The captain chuckled, "Alright then, I'm is going to ask you some questions. You have to tell the truth, okay?"
Xia Zixin nodded enthusiastically.
The captain took a deep breath and inquired, "Xia Zixin, how many tear gas canisters are in your bag?"
At his words, everyone's attention turned to her.
Saa and the homeroom teacher exchanged nervous glances while swallowing uneasily.
Even those watching the live broadcast joined in with excited comments.
"Finally, the moment of truth!"
"Now for the no-prize guessing game. How many weapons did Xia Zixin bring to school?"
"I bet her bag is full!"
"I think it's not just tear gas; there might be flashbangs or smoke grenades too!"
"Why no high-explosive grenades? I love those in games!"
"Are you really going to blow up the school?!"
Xia Zixin pondered for a moment before responding, "One tear gas canister, a handgun, a smoke grenade, a flashbang, and a Fragmentation Grenade..."
"A total of five weapons!"
Saa and the homeroom teacher almost collapsed in shock. Their legs felt weak, and they struggled to stay upright.
The faces of the other film crew turned pale.
They had never imagined this girl to be so heavily armed!
Moreover, among them were the highly potent Fragmentation Grenades!
Thankfully, they had evacuated swiftly. If an accident had occurred, everyone would likely have been propelled into the air!
The police captain couldn't help but feel tense.
"Are these weapons secured?" he asked involuntarily.
He regretted it the moment he opened his mouth.
How could a student possibly know about that?
However, Xia Zixin nodded emphatically. "Absolutely!"
The captain's eyes lit up. "Tell me, young lady, what safety measures are in place?"
Xia Zixin began explaining, almost boasting, "The Desert Eagle already has a safety mechanism. Without disengaging the safety, it can't be fired!
"Tear gas canisters, flashbangs, smoke grenades, and Fragmentation Grenades all have safety devices. They'll only explode once the fuse is pulled and released.
"My favorite is the F-1 Fragmentation Grenade. It's got a cute nickname: Lemon!"
"Under normal circumstances, they're effective at distances of 30 to 45 meters, with a blast radius of 30 meters."
Upon hearing her words, the captain couldn't help but gasp.
The F-1 Fragmentation Grenade was a highly active type of wartime ordinance.
Its potency lay in its ability to cause considerable enemy suppression due to its formidable destructive power!
Should it actually detonate, the entire classroom would be decimated!
Although Saa and the homeroom teacher were not well-versed in grenades, Xia Zixin's explanation left them flabbergasted.
Had they still been in the classroom, an accident involving those grenades would have been deadly!
Saa's naturally dark complexion turned as pale as a sheet of paper.
His gaze on Xia Zixin was filled with trepidation.
It was a 30-meter effective killing radius!
In other words, if the grenade wasn't thrown far enough, even he might be caught in the blast!
However, at that moment, Xia Zixin suddenly smiled.
"Don't worry, everyone!
"Dad assured me these grenades have been specially treated. They're similar to training grenades, producing smoke at worst."
However, no one present believed this.
It had to be a joke!
These were grenades. She claimed they'd been "specially treated" to emit smoke!
Even the police officers were unlikely to have encountered weapons as dangerous, let alone the teachers.
An accident involving such weaponry wouldn't be a matter of one or two lives!
Plus, she's just a first-year student.
How could she possibly discern whether these grenades had been tampered with?
