Chapter 45: The Scapegoat
The two girls walked into the school and paused as they walked across the playground. Because, Alice met several classmates.
"Yo, isn't this our 'Cinderella' Alice? I heard you were fired? ”
"Alice, where is your prince? Why didn't he come to pick you up? ”
"Hmph, what prince? That's just an 11-year-old child, and what about a prince? Maybe that child has forgotten our Cinderella a long time ago, aren't all children so forgetful? Huh-"
……
Lucy looked at several of Alice's classmates and was very angry.
"What are you doing? Why are you making such a mockery of Alice, is there a classmate like you? Don't you know that Alice is also a victim? ”
"Forget it, Lucy!" Alice stopped Lucy and didn't let her continue.
After a few classmates sneered, they passed the two girls and left.
After all, they are college students, not ruffians, and they can't be as unrelenting as stupid.
As for why they laughed at Alice, it's simple. Because their families are from Leeds, their father's company suffered heavy losses in this cyber attack.
Blocking people's financial means is like killing their parents, they can't find watermelons to scold, they can only laugh at Alice.
Of course, they are just verbally venting, and they are not enough to do anything else to Alice. After all, in this world, stupidity is still uncommon, let alone these highly educated college students.
……
"Alice, you're too weak!" Lucy said indignantly to Alice.
Hearing this, Alice was relieved: "Forget it, forget it, they don't have a heart." Let's go! ”
Lucy had no choice but to continue to walk with Alice towards the administration building......
Administration Building.
"Knock knock!"
Alice knocked on the door of the executive office. After hearing the sound of "please come in", the two women pushed the door and walked in.
"You are ......" Behind the desk, the administrative director looked up at the two women, and swallowed the words before he could finish the question. Because, he saw Alice.
Recent news every day is putting the prodigy Ike (2) dǐng (2) diǎn (2) small (2) said, .●.←os_ (); , and even took him to note Alice's appearance.
"Alice, you're finally here! Have a seat! The executive pointed to the chair in front of the desk and invited the two women to sit down.
But the two girls didn't sit down.
"Sir, can you speak to the Headmaster? Can you please not fire me, please! I really love this school! Alice pleaded, her eyes full of anticipation.
Beside her, Lucy also spoke for her best friend: "Sir, Alice is also a victim! And Alice usually works hard, please don't fire her, okay? ”
Hearing the two women's words begging for mercy, the administrative director shook his head.
"This is the decision of the school board! Even the headmaster was helpless! ”
What the? School Board of Trustees? Why do they want to embarrass us ordinary people? Why, why?
"Please, sir, I really don't want to leave school! I'm only a sophomore in college, and if I left school now and went looking for a job, no company would want me! Please, please, please, sir......"
Alice was weeping and pleading. She didn't want to give up the slightest hope.
Lucy also intercedes with Alice.
Unfortunately, this qiē is useless. The director of administration still shook his head and said, "Alice, I sympathize with what happened to you. However, there really wasn't much I could do. After the incident, I also carefully read your information. Although your academic performance is only average, you work very, very hard, which I admire very much. ”
"If it weren't for the order from above, the headmaster and I would never have fired you. Unfortunately, we can't resist the decision made by the school board. ”
With that, the Director of Administration stood up and bowed his head to Alice in a rare apology.
"Alice, I'm sorry the school failed to protect its students. This apology was conveyed to you on behalf of the principal. ”
"Why? Why would the Board of Trustees embarrass an ordinary student like me? Alice asked reluctantly.
Hearing this question, the administrative director sighed in his heart, these two girls are still not deeply involved in the world.
"It's because of capital and politics! The board of trustees are big capitalists whose assets have been heavily lost in the Leeds incident. On the political side, because of the strength of the US government, there has been no news of Leeds' compensation plan until now. ”
"The capitalists couldn't find that kid out of anger, and they didn't dare to look for it! Our government also has no way to deal with the United States! So—"
"You've become a scapegoat!"
As soon as these words came out, Alice's eyes were full of despair, despair.
It turns out that this is the anger of the entire Leeds capital community, how can I bear it? Maybe he is not dead now, and he is already lucky.
30 billion pounds, hehe, how can I afford to pay it?
Alice smiled self-deprecatingly, then bowed to the Director of Administration, "Sir, thank you for your explanation!" I understand! ”
Lucy, who was next to her, stopped talking, because it was useless to say anything.
At this time, the administrative director took out a piece of paper from the drawer, and the words "withdrawal application" at the top were extremely glaring.
"Alice, here's a withdrawal request, you can sign it. If you are directly expelled, the filth will stay with you for the rest of your life. That's the only thing the school can do for you. ”
Alice diǎndiǎn head, indicating that she understood, then picked up a pen and signed her name on the application.
With the last stroke, Alice has had nothing to do with Leeds Metropolitan University ever since. The "dropout" resume will stay with her for the rest of her life.
……
After saying goodbye to the administrative director, the two women walked out of the office and headed for the dormitory. She was going to pack up her personal belongings and leave school......
Alice walked and stopped, looking around. Those beautiful eyes were full of reluctance, and she wanted to engrave the scenery of the school in her heart forever.
Lucy, who accompanied Alice, was about to cry.
Why is this happening? Why did that watermelon hurt Alice like this?
Time passes minute by minute, no matter how slow the two girls walk, the road will always be over.
The two girls went back to the dormitory to pack their things.
Alice's belongings were few, and all of her clothes were only packed in a suitcase except for one diǎn toiletries.
Dragged the suitcase downstairs and walked through the playground and out of the school.
In front of the school gates. Alice couldn't help but look back again, one last look at her alma mater.
At this moment, crystal tears flowed from Alice's eyes, and then quietly slid across her beautiful face, dripping to the ground......
Farewell, my teacher; Farewell, my alma mater!
……
At this moment, suddenly!
