The University of Delaware is located in Delaware on the west coast of the United States, between the HSD Special Administrative Region and New York City, is a public university, of course, it cannot be compared with Harvard, Yale and other world famous universities in terms of fame, but its comprehensive ranking of many universities in the United States can enter the top 100, and some disciplines are ranked in the top 10.

The top 100 sounds a bit low, but in fact, the University of Delaware is located in Delaware, and if you can use the name of Delaware, you can roughly see some of its status, maybe not the top, at least it can be ranked in the upper echelons.

Showing off his rather lame spoken language all the way, Gu Heng stumbled, and finally came to Delaware, which was known as the first state because it was the first to join the Union.

If you have to say a few points of difference from the domestic one, you can probably summarize a few points at first glance: the rice country, which has a land area about the same as China, but only about one-third of the population of China, seems to be vast and sparsely populated in comparison, and as the economic and cultural center of the world, this developed country has completed the industrialization process early, and has completed the road of sacrificing the environment in exchange for the speed of development, the air is fresher, and the sky is bluer......

It is not denied that this developed country has its good side, but it is not a paradise, there is also a gap between the poor, there are also some uncivilized phenomena, and there is also a high crime rate......

Looking at it all the way, Gu Heng was not shocked by the high-rise buildings rising from the ground, nor was he intoxicated by the occasional glimpse of the lakes and mountains, this country has only one feeling for him: a foreign land!

Even if this is the most developed country in the world, has the most powerful military capabilities, and is the center of the world's economy, culture and other fields, I have heard that as long as you have money, this is a paradise on earth.

But for the more traditional Gu Heng, he felt that it was good to visit here, but if the immigrants settled here, he would definitely not be able to adapt to it. The language barrier, the difference in thinking, the lack of adaptation to the diet, and the lack of recognizable black and white faces all made it difficult for him to find a sense of belonging.

The son is not ugly to the mother, the dog is not poor at home, although it is just a quick glance, but he still feels that the water and soil that gave birth to him and raised him are closer, as a Chinese who is used to drinking porridge and eating steamed buns and noodles for breakfast, it is really difficult to adapt to the life of milk and bread.

It was already afternoon when Gu Heng arrived near the Delaware campus in Newark, and the rhetoric that had been thought of many times before coming here was already a little chaotic as she got closer.

He thought that he was ruthless enough to untie the knot, but when he saw that delicate face appear in front of him again, and when he saw her rushing towards him with an unconcealable surprise, he couldn't bear to refuse a hug after all.

"Why are you here?"

Xu Tingting hugged him, greedily breathing in the smell of his body, and didn't seem to come back to his senses.

The beauty was in her arms, with a majestic heart, Gu Heng rarely had no desire, gently brushed her hair, and said, "I promised to come and see you." ”

Breaking free of her embrace, Xu Tingting took two steps back, stared at Gu Heng for a long time, and said, "It seems to be a little darker, and it has grown a little taller." ”

As she spoke, she took a step closer, gestured with her hand to the top of her head, and said, "I used to be tall enough to reach the bridge of your nose, but now it's only up to your lips." ”

Then, she touched Gu Heng's chin again, and continued: "Well, the beard is also rougher than before, and he is dressed up and looks like a bit of a successful person......

In one breath, she said a lot, about Gu Heng's changes in every detail, about his career and success...... It seems that in the past year or so, she has hidden too many things in her heart to say to him.

All the calculations in Gu Heng's heart, with this sentence, were completely blocked in his throat.

The most difficult to accept the grace of the beauty, he is not a hard-hearted person, in the face of such a girl, he found that he could not do what he imagined, turn around in a chic way, and never look back.

Standing for a moment, there was only a soft greeting on his lips: "What about you, are you still comfortable living here?"

Xu Tingting smiled slyly and said, "Everything else is fine, but I don't have you as a bodyguard by my side, so I'm a little uncomfortable." ”

The first thing after the meeting, Xu Tingting took Gu Heng to visit her nest, the University of Delaware has tens of thousands of students, but the student dormitory only has more than 7,000 dormitories, so that once the lottery fails, the senior students will have to transfer to rent their own rooms outside the school, Xu Tingting is one of them.

The house she rented was in an apartment not far from the school, in a small room, with everything she needed, including a TV, a refrigerator, pots and pans, and a small sparrow.

"Speaking of renting a house, there is a little story in it, when I first came, I was stupid when I heard that the school had to be lucky to draw a lot to have a dormitory arrangement. Fortunately, this girl is smart and knows how to ask for help, and then I found this apartment recommended by others on a website, and there happened to be two Chinese students who were also ready to rent a house, and then we totaled, and we rented together, and the two of them shared a house, just next door. ”

Xu Tingting put Gu Heng's luggage away, and pulled him out: "Go to the supermarket to buy some ingredients, I will make something for you later, I have not learned anything else for more than a year, but my cooking skills have made great progress, and we are not used to eating hamburger steak, so we will do it ourselves and have enough food and clothing." ”

Far away, without relatives and no reason, driven by life, she has to learn more survival skills in this unfamiliar environment.

Since she was a child, she has been far more mature than her peers, and she quickly adapted to this place, made new friends, and had a new way of life. The only inappropriateness is that there is no person here who promised to be her personal bodyguard.

If Xu Tingting used to give Gu Heng a sense of elegance and nobility cultivated in a privileged home, but during the more than a year of studying abroad, she seemed more down-to-earth, whether it was speaking or habits.

When she returned from shopping at the supermarket, when Xu Tingting was about to show off her cooking skills, the door was pushed open and a young girl walked in.

"Wow, there is a big meal to eat, Tingting, you are so good, I love you!"

As she spoke, the girl was about to pounce on Xu Tingting, and as soon as she took two steps, out of the corner of her eye, she saw Gu Heng who was talking on the phone outside the balcony.

"Well, since Tengxun has the intention of cooperating, then you come up with a plan as soon as possible and make an appointment with the other party, and then I will go directly from Mi Guo to Shenzhen City to meet you, and what people do you need to find Josie or Jiang Cheng and let them cooperate with you." ”

Listening to Gu Heng's tone of giving orders on the balcony, the girl was stunned, walked to Xu Tingting's side lightly, snorted angrily out of the window, and whispered: "Tingting, who is that?"

"The one I told you about. ”

"Your boyfriend? Didn't you say that he was still one year younger than you, and there should be no holidays in the universities in China, right? No, I have to call Xiaowan back for such a hot thing, and let her come over to witness it. ”

Xu Tingting's hand cutting meat paused slightly, and said: "By the way, speaking of Xiaowan, I remember something, she seems to have told me this morning that she has a friend who has lost contact, and it seems that she is also a Chinese student, will she be contacted?"

"I've also heard that it seems to be a Shanghai girl who only enrolled this year, and I'll ask later, there shouldn't be any problems. ”

Gu Heng finished making the phone call and entered the house, looked at the back of the girl who turned to leave, and asked, "That is the alumni who lives next door to you just now?"

"Well, her name is Ma Qingqing, and I recognized this friend as her name at that time, a Tingting, a Qingqing, and I was fated to meet in this foreign country, what a fate. There is also a girl named Xu Xiaowan......"

Xu Tingting, who seemed to have endless words, began to talk about some things since she studied abroad, life, study, circle of friends, and some of her experiences in the United States, knowing that Gu Heng would not stay too long this time, she cherished this little time together, and just wanted to talk to him more, which was also a very happy thing.

Chatting and chatting, Xu Tingting talked about the loss of contact with Ma Qingqing just now.

After Gu Heng listened, he asked, "Have you lost contact for a long time?" If that's the case, it's best to call and report ......."

In the middle of speaking, Ma Qingqing broke in, his face pale, as if he had encountered something extremely terrible.

Xu Tingting got up, walked over and asked, "Qingqing, what's wrong, what's going on?"

"Something happened, I just called Xiaowan and asked about the friend she knew, saying that she was killed, and she was murdered after being violently assaulted. ”

"Ahh

Xu Tingting exclaimed in surprise, and Gu Heng couldn't help but be surprised in his heart.

Xu Tingting was both shocked and scared, such a thing happened around her, and it was someone her friend knew, which made her feel terrible when she thought about it.

This is also normal, in today's legal society, ordinary people may come into contact with moral turpitude, but it is still far from this kind of criminal incident that carelessly disregards people's lives, even if you hear about it, most of them are on TV, and now they are staged alive around you, how can you not be afraid?

And Gu Heng is more worried, although he also regrets the loss of a young life, but after all, it has little intersection with his own life, not to mention how sad it is. He was just worried about Xu Tingting, since this kind of thing can happen to other international students, and it happens to her, if there is a ......

He didn't dare to think about it anymore.

If this happened suddenly, the two girls were still a little frightened, if this matter was not found, if the murderer had not been arrested, they would not have dared to go to school.

had a happy dinner party, but spent it in a dull atmosphere, and not long after the meal, Xu Tingting's other neighbor, Xu Xiaowan, came back and brought the truth.

The incident started when the schoolgirl went out for a morning jog and was stopped by a girl who said she needed help with something. Unexpectedly, what awaited her was a nightmare, the girl who asked her to help, actually teamed up with her boyfriend to commit violence to her, and finally tied her hands and feet, sealed her mouth and nose, and abandoned her in a wasteland when she was still breathing......

The bloody tragedy happened in front of people's eyes, which not only made people feel sorry for the loss of a young life, but also angry at the cruelty of the perpetrators, and at the same time, there was also a kind of fear, after all, they were all international students studying abroad, and this same identity made a group of girls feel cold.

"It's okay, there are only a few psychopathic criminals like this after all, and if the matter is clear, the murderer will definitely be punished. ”

Gu Heng looked at the slightly trembling body of the girl beside him, gently hugged it in his arms, an inexplicable anger burned in his heart, and asked Xu Xiaowan, "Did the murderer catch it?"

Xu Xiaowan bit her lip and said: "It doesn't seem to be yet, I heard that the mother of the man who committed the crime is from the local police station, things may be reversed, the school has notified Xiaomei's parents, and I don't know if the murderer can be brought to justice in the end, this is not a country after all." ”

It's not domestic, a few words, revealing a kind of sadness of people leaving their hometowns. It's not that this kind of thing doesn't happen at home, it's just that if you encounter this kind of thing in your own country, there is still some way to think about it, but abroad, you are completely helpless.

"I'll make a call!"

Gu Heng's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly got up.

If this kind of thing didn't happen, it would be okay, since he had met it and witnessed it with his own eyes, whether it was to seek a kind of justice that was uneven, or the identity of the victim who was also Chinese, he couldn't turn a blind eye within the scope of his ability.

The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, the poor will be good to themselves, and the good will help the world, this is a universal value that everyone in the world is pursuing, standing in Gu Heng's perspective today, he wants to stand up and do something.

In addition to upholding the axioms and justice that he recognizes, he also has a sense of responsibility, when a compatriot encounters difficulties, if he does not stand up, when he encounters difficulties in the future, what qualifications does he have to expect others to stand up and support him?

In the long run, a value in the heart will inevitably collapse, and people will live in the world, and there will be a lot less meaning.

Of course, he is not strong, although he has nothing to do with it in the United States, but he himself does not have it, it does not mean that others do not.

"Hey, Mr. Gu, is there anything else you have to explain about the cooperation with Teng Xun?"

Gu Heng took a deep breath and said, "No, it's a bit of a private matter, Tang Jun, are you a well-known lawyer in Mi Country?"

Tang Jun was silent for a moment, but finally restrained his curiosity very well, and asked, "Which aspect, economic case?"

"For criminal cases, you give me a contact information first, and I may use it then. ”

Tang Jun asked, "Do you need me to come over?"

"Not necessarily yet, I'll let you know if it's really necessary. ”
