Chapter Forty-Eight: The Theft Storm
The next day, Lin Ping took the children to the largest library in Linxi City, and after each child entered the library, it was like a bird flying into the forest, and he was so excited that he couldn't wait to touch every book.
For the first time, they had seen so many books, and there were endless shelves, and every row of shelves was full of books.
"Wow, my God, there are more books here than there is corn in my cornfield. Liu Weiguo, who has always been mature and steady, couldn't help but sigh when he saw these books.
"Yes, these rows look like the corn we grow in the field. Feng Xiao also said in surprise.
The conversation between the two drew the other readers to look at each other.
"Shhhh Lin Ping motioned for the students not to speak.
Here, Lin Ping bought a set of "Five-Year High School Entrance Examination Three-Year Simulation" for each of the five junior high school students, and then allowed each child to choose three of his favorite books, and Lin Ping also selected a dozen books for the children to read, such as "How Steel is Made", "The Biography of Yue Fei" and "Selected Short Stories of O. Henry".
"After these books go back, the teacher has to put them away, and only after attending the teacher's class every day and learning the knowledge taught by the teacher, can I borrow books from the teacher to read them in the fourth self-study class in the afternoon. Lin Ping said.
"Huh?"
The children made disgruntled voices.
"But, teacher, how do you know if we have learned what you taught?" asked Liu Qingmei.
Lin Ping smiled a little mysteriously: "The teacher knows everything, of course he can know." ”
At noon, Lin Ping took the children to the large supermarket, and they were even more shocked, they never imagined that there was such a place in the world, this was simply a paradise in their hearts.
Ten children followed Lin Ping like a small train in the shelves, attracting the attention of other customers, but Lin Ping didn't care.
What is it?
What is that?
The children kept asking, and Lin Ping answered them with a smile.
In the supermarket, Lin Ping fulfilled his previous promise to buy swim trunks for the boys, not favoring one over the other, Lin Ping also bought some simple cosmetics and hairpins and other small accessories for a few girls, in addition to the reserved fare, more than 9,000 yuan was spent.
"Teacher, can you buy this?" asked Liu Xiangqian, pointing to something.
"No!" Lin Ping clearly refused, he would not give this to any child, once he bought it for one child, other children would also compare and ask for what they wanted to buy.
Lin Ping said to the children: "You have to study hard, go to the city to make money in the future, and buy it yourself." ”
Although he has 20,000 yuan sponsored by Liu Wanlong, it is not a problem to meet some of the children's requirements, but he is going to keep the 20,000 yuan for the children as tuition and living expenses after they are admitted to high school, and he will not use it to buy useless snacks or toys for the students.
Liu Xiangqian pouted and said, "When I have the money, I'll buy this whole place!"
"Okay, you have ambition, but you can't do it just by thinking about raising pigs, you have to study hard with the teacher. Lin Ping said with a smile.
Soon Lin Ping took the child to buy things, because there were too many things to buy this time, and finally had to buy two small carts for convenience.
"Excuse me, sir, please stay with these children. ”
When he was about to leave the supermarket after queuing up to pay the fee from the supermarket cashier, he was suddenly stopped by several security guards and loss prevention officers of the supermarket.
The security guard's tone was quite polite, but he suddenly stopped Lin Ping and them, attracting the attention of many people around.
"What's wrong?" Lin Ping frowned.
"Excuse me, can I check your purchase and invoices?" said a man who looked like the head of the security guard.
Lin Ping frowned, and the children behind him were also nervous, at this time, King Xinming, who was waiting for them outside and looking at the clothes and books he had bought before, also ran over.
"What's wrong?" asked Ma Zhongguo anxiously.
"It's okay, Teacher Ma, Brother Xinming, you two go and look at the things you bought before, and I'll solve it here." Lin Ping said calmly.
Lin Ping looked at these people and said, "Let's talk about something directly." ”
"Okay, we see from the surveillance that you and your child have a tendency to steal items, so sorry, we need to verify. The head of the security guard said.
Lin Ping looked back at the ten students behind him, the ten students had different expressions, Lin Ping turned around and said, "Don't be here, there are many customers, the impact is not good, and it will be a shame for your supermarket, we will take the children to a more private place." ”
The head of the security guard nodded, and then under the watchful eye of a group of security guards, he made his way to the hallway outside the warehouse, where the customers stopped.
Lin Ping said, "Are you sure we took your things and didn't pay?"
"Yes. The security guard nodded, "I hope you can take the initiative to take out the stolen things, otherwise we will be searched." ”
"Brother, body search is illegal, and you security guards do not have this right. Lin Ping said righteously.
"Then you can only stay today, or we will call the police to deal with it. "The head of the security guard was tough.
Lin Ping himself would definitely not steal things from the supermarket, but seeing that the security guards were so resolute, the problem should be with the children.
Lin Ping took the initiative to show all his pockets to prove that he was fine, and then said: "The children let me interrogate first, I am responsible." ”
Several security guards looked at each other, then nodded in agreement with Lin Ping's approach.
[System: There is theft among your students, you can spend 500 points to directly see which classmate stole what items.] 】
"Students, did any of you take something from this supermarket and forget to tell the teacher?" Lin Ping said, "Take it out now, the teacher doesn't blame you." ”
The ten children looked left and right a little, some of them looked confused, and a little of their expressions were obviously wrong, Lin Ping could tell from their panicked expressions at a glance who had stolen the items, and they didn't need help from the system at all.
"The teacher was a little disappointed, and if he did something wrong, he should be brave enough to take it. In this way, I'll go inside, you guys come over one by one, and I'll talk to you one by one......" Lin Ping knew that these children might not want to lose face in front of other children, so he decided to have a private conversation and let them take out the stolen things.
"Teacher, I'm sorry, I took it. At this time, Liu Xiangqian stood up, and then took out the thing he wanted to buy just now from his trouser pocket, which was a piece of chocolate.
"Okay, Liu Xiangqian is very brave. Lin Ping didn't blame Liu Xiangqian much.
"Teacher, I took it too. At this time, Liu Yinglan also stood up, and then took out a pink cartoon character eraser from her trouser pocket.
"Is there anyone else?" asked Lin Ping, and the other children all shook their heads.
"It's just these two kids, right?" Lin Ping asked the security captain when he turned around.
The security captain and a plainclothes loss prevention officer next to him whispered two words, and then said, "Well, no, only these two children." ”
"Then what to do with these two things now?" Lin Ping asked.
"It should have been fined, but seeing that these two children admit their mistakes so well, they won't be fined, you can return the things to us." The head of the security guard said.
"Well, I'll buy these two things. Lin Ping said.
Lin Ping followed the security guard to the cashier to pay for the chocolates and erasers, and then returned to the children and handed over the chocolates and erasers to Liu Xiangqian and Liu Yinglan respectively.
"Now the teacher orders the two of you to break the things in your hands, and the eraser will be broken if it doesn't move. Lin Ping said very seriously.
Liu Xiangqian and Liu Yinglan lowered their heads and did so, and the other children looked at each other inexplicably.
"Okay, now throw them in the trash. Lin Ping said in an unquestioning tone.
"But, teacher, you've already paid. Liu Qingmei said distressedly on the side.
"Remember, a gentleman loves money and takes it in a proper way, and you can't ask for anything that is not legally obtained in any case, I paid the money and I paid it, but you will be punished for doing something wrong. And the punishment is that the teacher wants you to destroy the things you stole with your own hands, if it's not yours, it's not yours, and it's not yours in your hands!" Lin Ping was very strict at this time, "You won't be so lucky next time, and the police will arrest you if you steal things in the future." ”
