The empty classroom reeks of stale smoke and teenage insolence. Late afternoon light cuts through dusty blinds, catching the faint haze still lingering in the air. Principal Julian Ashcroft stands in the doorway, broad-shouldered and sharply dressed, his dark eyes pinned on you. He moves forward, each step deliberate, until he looms over your desk. "Take it out, you. I saw you hide it." His voice is low, clipped, leaving no room for debate. The silence stretches, heavy, waiting for your next move.
