Chapter 19 - Evidence found

(Student's council office, TOP's trial commences.)

SHELLY

Why don't we found out if they're injuries real or not?

TREVOR, PATRICK & STEVE

JAEJUN

That might be a good idea. Mr. Ken. I believe that if your students got into an injury they might have visited the hospital.

KEN

Yes, they did. Here are some X-rays on their injuries.

(Jaejun takes a look.)

JAEJUN

I see. Trevor got a broken nose. Patrick got a broken arm and Steve got a broken leg. Hanna, you can take a look on those X-rays.

(He hands them over to Hanna.)

HANNA

They're real injuries. They might not be faking it.

TOP

I also got an injury. Can't you see what those bastards did to my face.

KEN

You see there you have it. Even if you said TOP doesn't have the physique to beat up 3 guys all alone. He might have outside help. Like Kevin or Sukini.

SHELLY

I don't think Sukini can hurt anyone. He's paperweight.

HANNA

And he's built like a mosquito.

SUKINI

Hey!

HANNA

And Kevin doesn't look the type to beat up neither Trevor, Patrick or Steve.

KEN

Then it all goes back to TOP being the prime suspect. We should suspend him or give him detention. And get this class be done with. Do you have anything else to defend TOP, Hanna?

HANNA

KEN

Time is money.

HANNA

[I can't think of anything. I've tried to defend TOP but it's leading to nowhere. The recording we claimed it was AI. But that led us to nowhere. The injuries of those Class C students are real and they do serve as a good evidence against TOP. If I don't do anything, TOP might get suspended or be given detention. And that would put our class to risk. What should I do Juwon? Help me.]

KEN

Well, do you have anything else to say?

(At the security room, Juwon, Justin, Khloe, Lisa and Alicia are looking through the monitors.)

JUWON

Come on where is it? We need some good evidence.

ALICIA

You sure know how to handle this stuff. Have you ever done cybersecurity before?

JUWON

I just used to play around with CCTV cameras at my dad's company.

LISA

What does your father's company do?

JUWON

Some tech stuff.

KHLOE

Hey! Can you rewind I think I see something?

JUSTIN

Where?

KHLOE

At that classroom.

LISA

Aren't those the 3 Class C students?

ALICIA

And they're the same over here.

JUWON

Yeah, they do look the same. This one shows the 3 of them picking on TOP, Kevin and Sukini. And if we look closely TOP seems to have blocked the punch from hurting Kevin.

JUSTIN

And then TOP threw the 1st punch.

LISA

If we show this to the council, this would be strong evidence against TOP.

JUWON

What if we rig the evidence?

JUSTIN

We can't do that.

JUWON

Those morons already framed TOP with some fake recording. And look in the next one. Those 2 decided to injure themselves to make TOP the bad guy. So if we edit these recordings here. It will seem that these 3 from Class C started to bully TOP, Kevin and Sukini and beat up TOP because he was trying to defend Kevin. And then we add this footage of them injuring themselves to make TOP the bad guy.

ALICIA

That's kind of genius. I knew I chose the right guy. Not only are you handsome but also a genius. Should I give you a kiss?

LISA

You're not doing that here.

JUSTIN

I still don't like this. It's not noble. We should be fair.

JUWON

Justin. I feel like I should punch you in the face,

KHLOE

You're not punching his face, Juwon! What if you scar his face?

JUWON

If we don't do this… TOP will get suspended and that will put our class in a bad shape. And also we'll never reach Class A. You do want to reach Class A, don't you?

JUSTIN

Yeah. But not like this. There has to be another way.

JUWON

This is the only way. Trust me. It is for the greater good. If Class C plays dirty against us. We do the same to outsmart them.

LISA

For once I agree with Juwon.

JUSTIN

I'm not onboard with this. I'm leaving.

(He takes his leave.)

KHLOE

Justin, wait.

(She follows after him.)

ALICIA

Looks like he went back to class. You guys have a weak class president. He's not going to survive this school if he tries to act like a honor student.

JUWON

Leave that pussy alone. Let's start editing.

LISA

Okay.

ALICIA

[Scott, you better watch out. I think you might have underestimated Class D.]
