The head teacher, Mr. Suo, walked into the teaching building with charming steps, and the corridor sounded the sound of leather shoes hitting the ground, passing through the hall, echoing everywhere, and stopped in front of the door of the first class of the third year of high school. The classroom door was wide open and you could see the male and female students doing their homework with their heads down. Teacher Suo's gaze stayed in one place and hesitated. I can't bear to bother, and I have to bother.
"Zhang Jixiang, go and answer the call from your neighbor" Teacher Suo lowered his voice and shouted in a low voice, Teacher Suo's soft voice still sounded as loud as thunder in the silent classroom, and the startled students raised their heads one after another and looked at the voice. The eyes of the students are like a sword, there are all kinds of swords, some are vicious, some blame, some are playful, some are gentle, some are ridiculed, and some are complex and changeable, especially the eyes of female students are like gentle soft swords, slapping Teacher Suo's red puffy face, Teacher Suo is uncomfortable.
"Teacher Suo, call me?" Zhang Jixiang heard someone shouting at the door of the classroom, looked up and saw that it was Teacher Suo, looking at him embarrassedly, the classmates scattered their eyes gathered on Zhang Jixiang's face, and their eyes poked Zhang Jixiang's face red, Zhang Jixiang lowered his head and dodged to get up from his seat, and hurriedly ran to Teacher Suo who was standing at the door of the classroom and asked,
"Zhang Jixiang, hurry up and pick up your call in the duty room" Teacher Suo replied in a panic when he saw Zhang Jixiang come out,

"Hurry ... Come home ... Go out... It's over... The woman said slowly,
"Ahh What's going on at home? When Zhang Jixiang heard this, he panicked, his heart chuckled, and he jumped frequently, Zhang Jixiang took a deep breath, and then exhaled, only to stabilize his rapid heartbeat, and asked anxiously,
"Hey! Feed! Zhang Jixiang shouted loudly, and then there was a beep of electricity on the phone, and the woman hung up the phone. Zhang Jixiang put down the phone, panicked out of the door of the school duty room, and almost bumped into Li Daming who came back, leaving Li Daming in surprise, guessing that he didn't know what was going on.
