She Dies - Season 1 - Episode 4

“I see.” Stephen interrupted. He looked at
Marcus who was already writing on the
notepad and turned back to Noel, “Forced to
save his life.” He repeated the phrase twice
and said calmly, “Noel, are you a security
guard or a student?”

Noel was completely taken aback by his
question, “A student of course.”

“And you saw two cultists with guns dragging a young man into an empty classroom and went to save his life?”

“Yes. I suspected what they would do to him.”

“And what happened when you eventually met the cultists?”

Noel recollected for a few seconds and told
them everything that happened in that
classroom.

“You took laws into your hands.” Marcus said with smiles, his gaze on Noel but his ballpoint still moving on the notepad, “There’re security
agents all over the campus and you didn’t
bother to alert any of them?”

“There was no time for that.” Noel said
quickly, “Moreover, no officer was at hand.”

“We’re done here.” Stephen said; his
expression, indifferent, “We shall come back
when your friend has regained consciousness.

He rose, Marcus followed suit and returned the ballpoint and notepad into his pocket. Noel
watched them until they left the ward and
closed the door after them.

It was after two days that Williams regained
consciousness. When he opened his eyes, he
saw his parents and Noel seated in the ward.

He tried to talk but slept off. In the evening,
he was awake again. His parents were gone
but Noel was still there. Noel introduced
himself to him and they discussed at length
about that particular incident and grew very
friendly with each other. Williams thanked him
for saving his life. The next day, the detectives
came back. This time around, they were in
uniform. They took Williams’ statement and
commended Noel for his bravery.

“Why not announce your candidacy for the
post of the students’ president?” Stephen
suggested and smiled, his eyes blinking
steadily. Noel guessed that smile must be his
first in his life. Stephen continued, “Your
courage will save many.” They shook hands
with them and left.

After Williams was discharged, he talked Noel
into taking the Inspector’s advice and he later
contested for the post. Williams stood solidly
behind him and greatly saw to his success.
