Chapter 141

Katniss raised an eyebrow and shot a look at Cecil, who was standing next to Daryl.

Cecil's eyes were cold and arrogant. "Ignoring me to chase after some girl? Are you doubting my skills?"

Daryl scratched his head, stammering, "I..."

Cecil cut him off, "What do you mean 'I'? Tonight, bring me all your past inspection reports." His voice was icy.

Then Cecil turned to Katniss, his wild face showing a faint smile, but his tone was challenging, "What do you think, Katniss?"

"Perfect, I'm thrilled," Katniss replied with a forced, fake smile.

Cecil's face darkened immediately.

He got up and walked out without looking back, not caring about the ongoing class.

Daryl, used to Cecil's temper, grinned at Katniss, "Don't mind him, Katniss. He's just losing it."

With that, he hurried off to catch up with Cecil.

Katniss didn't care what they talked about; Cecil and Daryl, both being guys, found it easier to communicate with each other than with her.

After the morning class, Katniss was supposed to eat in the cafeteria but decided to take a lunchbox to the school clinic to check on Cecilia.

Cecilia was wearing a black down jacket over a basketball uniform. Her pant legs were rolled up, showing red and swollen ankles with some bruises.

Katniss glanced at her, "Did basketball do this?"

Cecilia nodded, talking with her mouth full, "Yeah, the guy on the other team was dirty! He bumped into me on purpose. Next time I see him, I'm gonna block him and get revenge!"
