Chapter 218: The Shadow in the Kitchen
Lu Dongye didn't know.
What Director Wu said to the little boy was true or false.
After all, he and Officer Sun are relatives, even if he really has no father or mother, he must have received a lot of care from relatives when he was a child.
Not exactly, with the help of well-wishers in society.
And what about white lies, of course?
Saved a broken child's heart, gave courage to a child who was struggling, and filled him with hope.
This is already the best in the world.
Lu Dongye is really happy today.
It's not because I know that there are officials who are secretly helping me.
It's not because the situation at Nanling Primary School is gradually improving.
It's not because I've met old classmates I haven't seen for many years.
It's because ...... Suddenly, I realized that I was not alone.
In this world, there are still people like themselves and the old principal, who are willing to sacrifice their own interests to help others.
Isn't that what Director Wu is?
At this moment, Lu Dongye began to have some respect for this dedicated official.
He believes that in this world, there must be more people like Director Wu, who are silently shining in a corner.
Give everything you can.
In this world, the beauty of kindness will never wither.
Back at school, Lu Dongye had already adjusted his state.
With Gao Jianchun, the abrupt loss after the conversation has completely disappeared.
In his heart, there is only infinite passion and motivation to fight for the future.
"Eh, Granny Wang?"
As soon as Lu Dongye jumped out of the car, he saw that in the kitchen, Granny Wang was lying on the edge of the stove, as if she was asleep.
He hurriedly walked in and approached before calling, "...... Granny Wang?"
“...... Huh?"
Granny Wang squeaked.
Sleepy-eyed opened his eyes, looking a little dazed: "Oh, how did you fall asleep...... It's really old, and the bones of the body are getting worse and worse. ”
Lu Dongye breathed a sigh of relief.
He also thought that something had happened to Granny Wang, but fortunately she was just tired and fell asleep.
"Granny Wang, are you chopping vegetables? I'll do the rest, you can go back and rest." ”
Lu Dongye saw that on the cutting board next to him, there were still some uncut vegetables.
Granny Wang has always been most afraid of being regarded as a useless person.
Immediately became anxious: "Oh, no, no, I don't need Principal Lu to help me! Just now I suddenly felt a little tired and wanted to lie down for a while, but I didn't expect to fall asleep!"
Lu Dongye didn't want to make it difficult for others, he knew that this was the spiritual pillar of Granny Wang.
Then he was no longer reluctant: "Then I'll go!"
"Let's go, let's go, don't worry. ”
As she spoke, Granny Wang had already gotten up and came back to the chopping board.
Lu Dongye observed for a while, and saw that Granny Wang was really fine, so he walked out of the kitchen.
Just after taking two steps, Lu Dongye suddenly felt a slight dizziness in front of him, and a feeling of fatigue suddenly came to his heart.
If it had been placed in the past, Lu Dongye might have yawned and walked away.
But...... Now, he suddenly became vigilant in his heart!!
Because, since +1 energy, he hasn't experienced the feeling of tiredness again.
Even when I fall asleep every night, I am forced to sleep.
Besides, no matter how much physical labor he had, Lu Dongye didn't feel much tired.
Right now, how can you suddenly feel a little dizzy?
As soon as he realized this, Lu Dongye couldn't help but glance at Granny Wang.
Granny Wang was still a little sleepy-eyed, cutting vegetables there, rubbing her eyes, and yawning.
She also felt tired just now, and then fell asleep.
How can there be such a coincidence?
Lu Dongye immediately walked in again and asked, "Granny Wang, do you remember how long you slept?"
Granny Wang looked up, looked at the clock hanging on the top of the kitchen, frowned, and said, "It seems to be less than half an hour, right?"
"Oh, it's okay, I'll just ask. ”
Lu Dongye didn't say much, and changed the topic: "How many dishes do you have to cut?"
"There's not much, that's all. ”
Granny Wang pointed to the ground next to her, washed and packed in the frame, and suddenly smiled: "Principal Lu! Mother-in-law is fine!
Lu Dongye saw that there were indeed not many dishes left, so he left with a smile.
But he didn't really leave.
Instead, I went to the car, just unloaded the food I had purchased today, and carried it into the kitchen.
"Granny Wang, these dishes are newly bought today, you don't need to wash them, you won't need them tomorrow, and they will be more likely to spoil if you wash them. ”
Lu Dongye carried it in and said, "There is some meat and other food, I just tidy it up." ”
Granny Wang smiled: "Eh, it's good that you're busy." ”
On the surface, Lu Dongye was busy sorting out and packing up the food, but in fact, secretly, he was looking at all corners of the kitchen.
He could faintly smell a strange fragrance in the kitchen air.
It's just that the smell of the meat is cloudy, and some of the tastes of other foods are a little difficult to distinguish.
Lu Dongye deliberately sorted it out very slowly.
He carefully scanned all the locations, even the most difficult corners, he didn't let go.
Suddenly, Lu Dongye found that there was a little white powder on the edge of the water tank in the kitchen.
It's hard to notice unless you look closely.
He deliberately pretended to go to the water tank to clean up.
Walking up to him, he wiped off the little bit of white powder with his hand, and Lu Dongye put it under his nose and sniffed it lightly.
There is no taste.
But Lu Dongye was sure that it could never be flour!
Because dry flour is the most susceptible to moisture, Lu Dongye never put the flour bag and the water tank together.
"Granny Wang, what kind of food did the children eat in the afternoon?"
Lu Dongye was out in the afternoon, eating with Gao Jianchun, and it was normal to ask this question.
"Dry rice, lotus leaf porridge, stir-fried cabbage with meat, and a rotten stewed soybean sprouts. ”
Granny Wang smiled: "What about you, Principal Lu?"
Lu Dongye is fighting on the surface, but the vigilance in his heart is a little higher!
There was no flour in the afternoon, so what was the white powder on the edge of the water tank?
Where did it come from?
While chatting with Granny Wang, Lu Dongye continued to pay attention to her surroundings.
His eyes lit up, and he saw that behind the water tank, in an inconspicuous corner, there was a small pinch of ashes.
This small pinch of ashes, apparently left by the burning, still bears the shape it had before the burning.
"Principal Lu, I've finished cutting and cleaning up the dishes, I'll go back and rest!"
Granny Wang's voice came again.
"Okay. ”
Lu Dongye hurriedly responded: "Granny Wang, go back and rest, I'll leave after cleaning up." ”
"Okay!"
With the footsteps of Granny Wang, it gradually weakened.
Lu Dongye also put down his disguise, squatted down, and carefully looked at the ashes.
It looks a bit like a cone, but half a finger high.
As Lu Dongye squatted down, the breeze had already made it begin to collapse a little.
Lu Dongye was about to pinch it up and take a closer look.
Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly noticed...... There was a shadow that shook from the depths of the kitchen to the cafeteria.
Subconsciously, Lu Dongye immediately got up and turned his head and shouted, "Who?!"
