Chapter 19: Xiaolan's Letter
"Principal Zhu, I have an urgent matter here...... Yun Duyu wanted to look at this side first, but Principal Zhu's voice was louder.
"Xiaoyun! What's the matter with you! You're still not a class teacher! Now that the child's parents have come to the door, you are still playing games at home! ”
Yun Duyu couldn't say anything, so he had to respond first: "Okay, okay Principal Zhu, I'll go over immediately." ”
"Hurry up!" Principal Zhu's tone was also a little hateful, and he hung up the phone directly.
Listening to the sound of "beep-toot-toot-toot-" from the phone, Yun Duyu's brows were about to end.
"Teacher Yun, you're still busy with your side." The owner of Xiaolan Restaurant realized that Yun Duyu's side was also in trouble, and he was embarrassed to ask Yun Duyu to help again.
"I'm so sorry, boss......" Yun Duyu said, "You left me a mobile phone number, I'll help you as soon as I'm done here!" ”
"That's good." It's still okay to leave a mobile phone number, and now one more person has more strength.
"I'll help too." Jia Ming suddenly said, "I'll also remember the mobile phone number." ”
"Thank you, this classmate ......," said the boss.
"My name is Jia Ming." Jia Ming said.
"Thank you, Mr. Jia Ming!" The boss said, "My name is Qi De, and my daughter's name is Qi Xiaolan." If I find my daughter's forehead, call this number......"
After Yun Duyu remembered the phone, he said to Jia Ming: "If you can help, you can help, and when you can't help, remember to call me, or call the police!" I'll go to you as soon as I'm done with my business. ”
Jia Ming nodded and didn't say anything more. Qi De still thanked Yun Duyu.
Yun Duyu nodded, and then left the hotel first, running towards the school principal's office. Jia Ming followed the hotel owner Qi out of the hotel, and then watched Qi De lock the hotel door.
"Boss Qi, where are you going next?" Jia Ming asked.
"I need to go home first!" "My wife is still crying at home, and I'm going to go back to see my daughter's ...... The letter ......"
"I'll go with you." Jia Ming said.
"Okay, good ......," Qi De nodded and said, "It's not far from here, let's just run back." ”
"Hmm." Jia Ming nodded.
I originally thought that Qi De's "running back" meant walking back, but I didn't expect Qi De, who was in a hurry, to run back in a hurry. Jia Ming knew that Qi De loved his daughter, so he didn't say anything, and ran back behind Qi De.
When I came to Qi De's house, it was as dilapidated as the small restaurant.
"You're finally back!" Seeing her husband come back, the proprietress immediately cried with red eyes, "It's all because you ignored Xiaolan last night, and now Xiaolan is gone!" ”
"I know, I know!" "What the hell is going on, and what's going on with that letter?" ”
"You, see for yourself......" The proprietress gave Qi De a piece of paper and went to cry on the other side.
Jia Ming was not idle, and came to Qi De's side to read the letter together.
It's a piece of stationery with only a few lines on it, but it's beautifully written.
Dear Dad, Mom,
I'm sorry, I'm leaving. Before I could repay you for my growth, I left, and I'm very sorry. Please don't come to me.
Probably, I will never be found again.
- Love your daughter, Qi Xiaolan.
This is not a suicide note. It's just that Xiaolan's last sentence "Probably, I can't be found anymore" is really a bit scary. It's hard to imagine a twelve or thirteen-year-old child who has just entered junior high school would write such words.
After reading this letter, Qi De's hands began to tremble, and then he pinched the letter and pointed to his wife and said, "You ......!" I felt that something was wrong with Xiaolan last night, it was all you, you had to settle any account, ignore Xiaolan, Xiaolan left! ”
"You didn't know how to watch TV last night, just know how to teach me a lesson, let me go to see Xiaolan, why don't you go yourself, woo woo woo ......"
didn't expect that these two people had already quarreled before they started looking for their daughter. Listening to the words of the two of them, something was wrong with Xiaolan last night, but one wanted to watch TV and the other to settle accounts, so they didn't go to see what happened to Xiaolan.
Jia Ming remembered that when he had dinner last night, he noticed the blue spot on Xiaolan's neck, so he interrupted the two and asked, "Was Xiaolan bullied?" Was it bullying at school? ”
"What?" Qi De didn't react for a while.
But Qi De's wife thought about it at this time: "Yes, yes!" When she came back yesterday, she told me the ...... too."
Jia Ming probably understood, so he said: "Xiaolan may have been bullied by the school people, and you didn't care too much, so she ran away from home." ”
When the couple heard this, they immediately quarreled again, but Jia Ming immediately asked again: "Have you contacted the school?" ”
"School...... We've been there several times......" Xiaolan's mother wiped her tears and said, "If it helps, I won't let her endure it......"
"What's the solution...... The family is poor, and the children of the poor will be bullied......" Qi De also said.
"When did Xiaolan disappear?" Jia Ming asked again.
"When did you disappear?" Qi had to ask his wife.
"No, I don't know when it ......," Xiaolan's mother said, "didn't she come down in the morning?" After you left, I cleaned up the house, and then kept knocking on Xiaolan's room door, but no one answered. I thought the kid was angry with us and deliberately didn't open the door...... When I went again at noon, I felt that something was wrong, and I knocked the door open, and then, and then I saw the letter......"
"Let's go out and find it first." Jia Ming said to the couple, "Ask the acquaintances around you and ask them if they have met Xiaolan, and if you can, ask them to help find it." If you can't find it, call the police as soon as possible. ”
"Good, good!" Qi De nodded and finished speaking, put down the letter, and said to his wife, "Don't cry!" Hurry up and get out there and find it! ”
Jia Ming left the house with the two of them, and when he saw that they didn't even lock the door, he went out to find Xiaolan.
To be honest, Jia Ming knew that there was a limit to what he could do. Not to mention this neighborhood, it is Wudong No. 1 Middle School, Jia Ming is not familiar with it yet. Familiar only are these buildings near Wudong No. 1 Middle School.
The current Xiaolan family is also the first time Jia Ming has come.
Most of the houses in this neighborhood are bungalows, and there are very few buildings. It should all be old buildings. Along with Wudong No. 1 Middle School, he was treated as an unwanted child by the county government. People who originally lived in this neighborhood probably thought that there must be a lot of convenience in the house next to the school at first, but who would have thought that a few decades later, such a development would be possible.
And since Xiaolan wrote such words, she should have the idea of looking for a short-term view...... What are the ways for a child in the first year of junior high school to commit suicide?
Jia Ming thought about it and began to return the same way.
