The incident happened suddenly, but Du Heng reacted quickly.
Seeing the boy get hit by the car, his heart tightened, and he immediately shouted, "Don't come over here! Just stand where you are!" Then he dashed towards the boy.
It had all happened too fast; he hadn't seen clearly whether the boy had been dragged by the car or hit squarely and thrown clear.
If he was dragged, that would be better—probably just local abrasions and fractures. But if he was hit directly by a car going at that speed, the young man could be torn to pieces.
The car that hit him had sped off quite a distance before braking, but the boy was close to Du Heng, having rolled only a few times, about seven or eight meters away.
"Classmate, are you okay?"
By the time Du Heng reached the boy, other students had already gathered around. Some wanted to help, while others were merely curious onlookers.
But Du Heng had no time for them now.
