Tong Tong's "corporal punishment" by Teacher Meng soon spread among his classmates. After he returned to the classroom, Geng Xiaoqing glanced at him coldly and said mockingly: "Heh, it's rare for you to listen to the teacher like this." ”

Tong Tong ignored her, and just sat down in her seat, a few dead friends came up and teased her. The chubby Sun Chengcai has the best relationship with him and ridicules him the most. In the past, Tong Tong didn't take the teacher seriously, and when he was the most rebellious, he took pleasure in making fun of the teacher. This time he was so obedient, could it be that he was moved by that beautiful teacher?

"Nonsense!" Tong Tong slapped him with his notebook, and his face turned red instantly: "Listen to the teacher, isn't that what you should do? If you don't listen to the teacher, beware of being arrested by the police uncle!"

"Hey, who said that I don't like teachers in my life??" Sun Chengcai laughed, ignoring his defense at all: "I just learned the information, Teacher Meng's family lives in Xingyue Bay. The point is, she lives there alone! People are the best white and rich beauty, don't be a toad! Swan meat is not something you can eat if you want to. ”

"Xingyue Bay" is one of the top luxury residential areas in Hong Kong City, and Tong Tong has also heard of it. Teacher Meng actually lives alone in a mansion, which shows his family background. But he couldn't understand why Teacher Meng was beautiful, very capable, and had a good family background, so why did he teach in such a broken school that was at the bottom of the city?

"Maybe she just wants to experience the suffering of mortals!"

The person who spoke was Chen Zeping, who was also one of Tong Tong's good friends. He was tall, lanky, bespectacled, and most enthusiastic about all kinds of fast-food novels and street food. Although he didn't do anything serious and his grades were not good, he was the most knowledgeable person in Tong Tong's circle of friends, except for Geng Xiaoqing.

Listening to his words, Tong Tong was thoughtful and a little lost. Chen Zeping laughed again: "Do you feel disillusioned with life?"

"Don't talk nonsense. Tong Tong straightened his face and said, "From last night to now, Teacher Meng has saved me twice, and I am very grateful to her." ”

If they are allowed to talk nonsense any longer, they are likely to be able to say even more unbearable words, Tong Tong's expression turned cold, and they each restrained themselves. On the contrary, it was Geng Xiaoqing, as if because Tong Tong listened to Teacher Meng's words, she was always angry.

In the past, when she was angry, Tong Tong could always sense that although he was not good at comforting, as long as he thought of him by his side, Geng Xiaoqing felt that it was a great comfort. But now she was angry all morning, and Tong Tong ignored her, which made her even more hurt and irritable-that fool should have forgotten about Teacher Meng when he saw her, right?

It wasn't until evening self-study that Tong Tong took the initiative to care about her and asked her if she had dinner. Geng Xiaoqing broke out with grievances, and said angrily: "You don't have to worry about starving." ”

"You haven't lived like a human being yet, how can you be willing to die?"

......

Alas, it is even harder to hear nutritious comfort from the mouth of a straightforward boy than to ascend to the sky.

Geng Xiaoqing gave up seeking comfort, and continued to ask angrily: "Why did you go to physical education class in the afternoon? Why didn't I see you?"

"I've helped Mr. Meng move the office, and I'm asking for leave from the physical education teacher!"

It was Teacher Meng who opened and closed his mouth, and Geng Xiaoqing became more and more annoyed. Tong Tong buried his head and returned to his seat, it was really a rare thing, he didn't even skip the evening self-study.

Tong Tong sat in his seat, in fact, he had been pressing one thing in his heart. In the afternoon, when he helped Ms. Meng move things, he found that her laptop was still open, and it was obvious that she was looking up something on Baidu. Tong Tong took a closer look and found that she had only typed two keywords "Zeng Taekwondo" into the search engine.

Tong Tong understood that she was checking his master, a taekwondo master surnamed Zeng.

In the past few years, Tong Tong has also been curious about Lao Zeng's origins, but Lao Zeng has always refused to disclose it. A neighbor joked with him and said, "Lao Zeng, are you a wanted criminal by the police? If you don't have all the ability, how can you go to this shabby place?"

Lao Zeng smoked a cigarette and joked: "Then you hurry up to the police station to report the case, maybe you can get a bounty." ”

I have the impression that Lao Zeng likes to lean against the door and smoke. He's not very old, but he always exudes an old-fashioned vibe. He is shabby, sloppy and sloppy, and likes to squint when he smokes.

Although he is a very ordinary middle-aged uncle, in Tong Tong's opinion, Lao Zeng is really unruly, like Zhang Yaoyao's group, if he cultivates for another twenty years, he may not be able to catch up with one-tenth of his bearing.

Tong Tong stared at the computer screen intently, Teacher Meng obviously saw it, she had always been calm and closed the notebook in a panic, but she still said honestly: "I think there are too many mysteries in you, and it is one to solve one." Of course, if you don't like me helping you, I won't look it up anymore. ”

Tong Tong shook his head: "It's okay, you can't find it out." ”

"It's man-made, as long as you try to track it down, you can always find some clues. ”

When Lao Zeng was engaged in sports, the Internet was still very underdeveloped, and Mr. Meng searched a lot of web pages before he found a former taekwondo athlete surnamed Zeng, and she told Tong Tong about the result, but Tong Tong said: "He is indeed from the Northeast, and his accent has not changed much." But he didn't tell me his real name, and my grandmother suspected him of being a fugitive. Later, Uncle Niu investigated him, but he only knew that his name was Zeng Haiming, and he had no criminal record, so he couldn't find out anything else. ”

"Uncle Niu, who is he?"

"It's the same cop who beat me at the police station that night. Except for the fact that he likes to hit me, everything else is fine. ”

So that's the case, no wonder after being beaten, Tong Tong didn't get angry with him, let alone fight back. Tong Tong said that Officer Niu used to live very close to his family, that is, he moved out three or four years ago.

In this way, the person found on the Internet is indeed not him, and Mr. Meng was slightly frustrated. Tong Tong comforted her in turn: "Teacher Meng, my grandmother often said that when you want to find something, you can't find it, and if you can't find it, it will come out by itself." It's the same with mysteries, some mysteries can't be found no matter how you look them, maybe when we give up, it will solve them on its own!"

"You're so open-minded. Do you think the same way, including your background? Don't you wonder what kind of people your parents are?"

"Curious, I was always bullied when I was a child, and I thought, if I had my parents, they would definitely protect me, right? But I don't have parents, and my father in my household registration book never cares about me...... So I had to fight back on my own and protect myself. ”

After Tong Tong finished speaking, he looked a little lonely, and pretended to smile: "I heard other classmates say that when they are sick, they are the most vulnerable, and they want their parents to be by their side." Luckily, I was strong and didn't get sick much. ”

Teacher Meng suddenly felt sad, she hurriedly lowered her head and pretended to tidy up things. After her emotions stabilized, she said, "Regarding your life experience, didn't that Uncle Niu help you investigate?"

"I checked, every time a child trafficker was caught in the city, he would take a photo of me when I was a child and ask for it, but there was no result for so many years. Uncle Niu said, I am a healthy boy, and I am a sought-after commodity in the eyes of human traffickers, if I am really abducted by human traffickers, then they can easily sell me for a large price, how can they throw me in the garbage heap?"

Teacher Meng nodded, agreeing deeply with his words. Tong Tong said: "When my grandmother brought me home, although I was dirty all over my body, the clothes I wore seemed to be quite expensive. My grandmother said that judging by the way I dressed, my parents should have been very attentive to me, and I didn't look like I was thrown away by them. ”

It's not trafficking, it's not like abandonment, so how did Tong Tong come to this street? Teacher Meng is full of doubts, but the suspenseful case that no one can investigate clearly, what can she, a teacher who has just joined, find out?

Teacher Meng was very worried, and Tong Tong couldn't calm down that night, but he didn't skip the evening self-study, but slept quietly on the table. Teacher Meng walked around the classroom, patted him on the shoulder, and woke him up. Tong Tong was ignorant, opened a book randomly, and then stunned at the book.

They are all in their third year of high school, and except for the top ten in the class, the other students either sleep or desert. Ms. Meng recalls her high school career, which was a time when even sleeping was a luxury. Seeing this group of inactive students, a strong sense of powerlessness welled up in my heart. She knows that she can't save everyone, and if she can pull one, it's one!

The next morning for self-study, Tong Tong was not late, but he still slept on the table. Teacher Meng beckoned to him and motioned for him to follow. After arriving at the office, she took out a notebook from the drawer, and took out a book of selected ancient poems, she handed these two things to Tong Tong, and said: "Don't you think it's a pity that the good years are used to sleep? ”

Teacher Meng is not the first person to want to save him, but Tong Tong has become numb to this kind of "rescue". Still, he took the two things and thanked them.

Teacher Meng looked at his eyes and knew that he would not change easily. Alas, communicating with adolescent children, even if they are spoken, may not be effective.

Despite this, Teacher Meng still said, "Tong Tong, have you imagined your life in the future?"

"Nope. ”

It's neat, I really haven't thought about it.

Teacher Meng's brain hurt, she rubbed her temples, and said: "You said, I saved you twice, you give me a face, even if it's pretending, don't sleep in self-study class, okay?"

"Okay. ”

He agreed neatly again, but he also didn't have a brain, and there was definitely no change.

He has let himself go for too long, where can it be so easy to change? Looking at his back, Mr. Meng felt tired.

But Tong Tong quickly turned back again, and he pointed to a line of words on the notebook and asked, "Teacher Meng, did you write these two sentences?"

"No, it was written by a poet, and I liked it so much that I copied it in almost every notebook. ”

"Oh......" Tong Tong scratched his head and said, "Then I want to copy this poet's poem, can you lend it to me?"

It seems that he still has some hope, Teacher Meng smiled secretly, but said with a straight face: "As for whose poem it is, you have to check it yourself, while you still have the desire to learn." ”

"Then I found out, will there be any reward?"

......

When it was over, as soon as the words came out, Tong Tong felt that he was rash, and he immediately said, "I'm joking." ”

Teacher Meng didn't get angry, but smiled indifferently and said, "It's too easy to find a poet, it's more difficult to change it." The origin of my name is in the selection of ancient poems I just gave you, if you can find out, then talk about rewards. ”

Tong Tong smiled and walked out of the office happily. It was dawn, and the sun shone on the corridor and on the notebook on Tong Tong's hand.

Tong Tong stopped for the sunshine for the first time, he groped for the two lines of poetry on the notebook, and silently recited: "You come to the world, you want to see the sun." ”
