Chapter 100 Troublemaker
After practicing for a while, Chase seemed to calm down a bit.
So he had them run laps around the grass field to loosen up their muscles.
When his colleagues from other classes noticed Chase had some free time to kill, they also made their students run. Then they gathered around him to gossip. “What just happened? Did you lose in the race?”
“Don’t tell me you did. She’s just a young girl; she’s not even agile on her feet. You’re a retired member of the Inferno Special Forces, with injuries to your arms, but your legs are fine.”
“Chase, spill the beans. What’s the situation? Curious as hell, bro.”
Facing his colleagues who were eager to gossip, Chase remained silent with a grim expression. His gaze fixed on the petite figure running steadily among the students.
“It’s nothing, just a troublemaker,” he said.
“A troublemaker? That girl?” His colleagues were surprised by the revelation.
They never expected that the former troublemaker of the Inferno Special Forces would one day address someone else as a troublemaker.
Wasn’t this troublemaker too lively?
Chase’s thoughts went back to the race.
How much was he behind her? Because he never caught up with her, he had no idea. All he knew was that when he arrived at the dorm, it was quiet, and he heard no sound of footsteps.
When he went upstairs, she was already waiting for him at the dormitory door, breathing evenly and looking calm.
In contrast to her, he was panting and in a much more depressed state.
The scary part was that he was clueless as to how long she had been waiting for him.
From the grass field to the dormitory, let’s say it was a kilometer. How long did they run? According to military standards, his unit was considered exceptional for finishing within ten minutes.
How about her?
He didn’t know, but Chase was aware that no one could run faster than her.
If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have believed that such a slender girl could run so fast.
A student hurriedly ran over and reported, ‘Instructor Dittman, a classmate fell down and can’t get up because of the pain.”
Chase snapped out of his thoughts and quickly went over them.
When he pushed through the crowd, he saw Erin sitting on the ground and crying out in pain. Erin’s pants rolled up, revealing a large, swollen bruise on her calf

Chapter 100 Troublemaker
After squatting down to check on it, Chase found her injury was quite serious.
He asked, “How did it get this bad?” Clearly, a fall did not cause this.
“It’s her fault. She deliberately tripped Erin, accused Candice as she pointed at Isabelle.
Chase frowned at her.
Isabelle stood with her hands in her pockets. Her expression was calm and showed no signs of panic. She looked down at Erin, who was crying, with disdain and said, “Didn’t you trip yourself while trying to trip
me?”
Isabelle had kicked Erin’s calf.
Isabelle then turned to Candice, her tone light but slightly cold. She said, “You were quick to put your foot down. If you were any slower, you’d be sitting on the ground crying next to her.”
“Why would she look for trouble and trip you?” Several boys stepped forward to speak up for Isabelle.
“Why would we try to trip her if she wasn’t looking for trouble with us?” Candice immediately retorted.
“Jealousy! Isn’t it obvious?”
Those boys chimed in.
“Hey! You…
When they exposed her, Candice was both angry and unable to refute it.
“Instructor Dittman, I saw everything. Those two deliberately approached Isabelle. The boy, who had sat next to Isabelle on the bus earlier, mustered up the courage to speak.
After speaking, he quickly glanced at Isabelle, and his face turned red again.
“Stop with that nonsense of yours! Obviously, you’re all helping her because she’s pretty. Candice denied it, but she was clearly guilty.
“Shut up, all of you! Keep running! Don’t you want to have breakfast?” With one command from Chase, the students scattered away.
He could see through these girls tricks,
Chase lifted Erin, who was in excruciating pain, onto his back. After he cast a glance at Isabelle, he proceeded to carry Erin to the infirmary.
He was away for a long time.
