Trick No. 4: Prophetic Dream Chapter 12 The Headmaster
Qi Xueshan cast a suspicious glance at her.
Wei Xiaofeng, who was swept by his gaze, couldn't help but panic a little, and secretly blamed himself for his frizziness. Some unpleasant things have happened to the students of the junior high school of this school in the past period of time, how can her direct question not arouse the vigilance and suspicion of the school leaders?
Wu Yun hurriedly relieved her and said, "Director Qi, that's the case, one of Miss Wei's aunts' daughter is studying in the junior high school of this school, so she asked so, and I want to take her aunt's daughter to see her later." ”
Qi Xueshan put away his suspicious gaze at this time, and said nonchalantly: "I will see the principal later, and after explaining some things, I will take you over." ”
After secretly breathing a sigh of relief, Wu Yun quietly pinched Xiao Feng's arm, signaling her not to be impetuous.
Wei Xiaofeng nodded guiltily and decided not to ask anything later.
The five-storey, boxy administrative building is a bit like the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D.C., except that the white columns at the entrance are not as stout.
The principal's office was located at the end of the left-hand corridor on the fifth floor, and after Qi Xueshan took Wu Yun and Wei Xiaofeng to the coffee-colored double security door, he rang the walkie-talkie next to the door.
Two seconds later, a slightly vicissitudes of voice came out of the walkie-talkie: "Who is it?" ”
Qi Xueshan said respectfully: "Headmaster, it's me, Qi Xueshan." I brought a reporter from the magazine with me. ”
"Okay, I'll open the door right away."
As soon as the words fell, he heard the sound of unlocking, Qi Xueshan opened the double doors, and motioned for Wu Yun and Wei Xiaofeng to enter the house with him.
The room inside the door is spacious and atmospheric, with bright white ceilings, pale yellow wallpaper, and a scarlet carpet on the floor. In the middle is a set of dark brown solid wood leather modular sofas, surrounded by a coffee table made of the entire tree stump, and a large sea of tea on it, on which is fully equipped for drinking kung fu tea. There was also a row of solid wood screens inlaid with stained glass on the opposite door, and the principal's desk should be behind the screens.
"Where does this look like a principal's office? It's more like the office of the chairman of a large company. Wei Xiaofeng secretly sighed in Wu Yun's ear.
Wu Yun showed an expected smile and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "It is not unreasonable for this school to charge high tuition fees every year. ”
Qi Xueshan didn't hear it, nor did he notice that the two people behind him were secretly chewing their tongues, and he shouted in a moderate voice, "Principal Song, I brought the guests here." ”
As soon as the words fell, as if stepping on the point, a figure slowly paced out from behind the screen. Wu Yun and Wei Xiaofeng carefully looked at him from head to foot: he was around sixty years old, half green silk and half white snow combed into a back and lay neatly on his head. There were a few deep wrinkles on his face, and there were tiny lines crawling around him, but his face was ruddy and his eyes were shining. A foot-long soapy white beard hung down under his chin. The body is stiff, the waist is straight, and he walks unhurriedly, with a kind of humility that only a pine can be found up and down.
Before the old principal could walk up to them, Wu Yun and Wei Xiaofeng couldn't help but greet him humbly: "Principal Song, hello. ”
Principal Song squinted his eyes and smiled, looking like an Antarctic fairy between his eyebrows. He stretched out his hand to the sofa in the center of the room and said, "Comrade reporters, please sit down when you come to the school." ”
"Headmaster, please too." The two replied politely, and it was not until they saw Principal Song sit down first that they sat down with a little restraint.
Principal Song glanced at Qi Xueshan, and Qi Xueshan hurriedly poured a glass of boiling water for the three of them, and poured himself a cup before sitting down.
"Your surname is Song, your name is Pingjiang, and you are ashamed of the position of the principal of the school. I don't know what the two journalist comrades call them? ”
Principal Song's way of speaking in such a literary manner really made Wu Yun and Wei Xiaofeng feel a little unaccustomed. Wu Yun cleared his throat and introduced, "My name is Wu Yun, and she is my assistant, Wei Xiaofeng. ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Song Pingjiang's eyes: "Wu Yun? Isn't he the author of the article in the latest issue of the journal "Green Shoots" describing the scenery and customs of the lake? ”
"It's really not talented." The way Wu Yun spoke couldn't help but be brought over.
"Your masterpiece has been read no less than three times, and its words are beautiful and your descriptions are vivid, and it is truly a masterpiece. To tell you the truth, the reason why our school chose your magazine to write and publish an article about our school is not unrelated to this Huahan article. ”
Wu Yun's face showed a look of pride, but he still said modestly: "Principal, you have a good reputation, this article can be written well, purely because of the many advantages of Lianhu itself, I just wrote down some of them realistically, and it is not worth so many praises." ”
"You're too modest." After Principal Song took a sip of water, Zhengse said, "Then let's get down to business, about the school's invitation to write an article this time, you can discuss the specific details with Director Qi, and if you have any requests, you can also ask him, and the school will try to meet them." The old man invites you to sit here, for there is something that must be said in front of you. ”
Wu Yun's expression was also a little more serious, and he bowed his head lightly and said, "You say." ”
Song Pingjiang raised his eyes and slanted at the corner between the ceiling and the wall opposite, as if he was reminiscing and missing something, and said eloquently: "Donghai Experimental School has gone through eighteen years since its establishment. Although it lacks the cultural accumulation compared with those schools with a history of fifty or sixty years, or even nearly a hundred years, with its strong faculty, top-ranked hardware configuration and rigorous teaching management, the school has become a provincial key school with a high admission rate in the city in just 18 years, creating a large teaching myth, and its reputation in the outside world is also rising. Even though the cost is slightly more expensive than other schools, every year, more parents who want their children to become Jackie Chan are relieved to leave their children to us. I am not boasting, but in the eyes of these parents, their children's admission to our school means a good prospect of further education and a bright future. ”
"However......" Song Pingjiang withdrew his gaze that seemed to be looking at a bright future, focused his serious gaze on the faces of Wu Yun and Wei Xiaofeng, and continued, "Recently, there have been students of this school who have been involved in unfortunate tragedies. You should have also seen the news, the day before yesterday at noon, a second-year junior high school boy was hit by a car at the crosswalk southwest of Tiandi Square because of running a red light, and he is still unconscious. A week earlier, a second-year junior high school girl in the same class committed suicide by using gas at home due to academic pressure......"
Wu Yun and Wei Xiaofeng's brows jumped involuntarily at the same time, they didn't expect that Principal Song would actually reveal this matter that was covered up by the school represented by him without concealing it.
"Heh, judging by your reactions, it seems that you already know the news." Song Pingjiang's eyebrows showed a hint of surprise, but it quickly disappeared, "That's right, after all, you are people in the media circle, and you can hear a little bit of rumors." It is not uncommon in the country for students to commit suicide due to academic pressure, but it is the first case in the 18 years since the establishment of our school, so in order not to panic students and parents, we deliberately concealed this incident, and lied that the girl had only transferred to another school due to family reasons, which was also a means that had not been resorted. ”
If it weren't for the fact that they had a general understanding of some of the details of the girl's suicide in advance, Wu Yun and Wei Xiaofeng would have almost been coaxed by Song Pingjiang's kind eyebrows and eloquent telling. They couldn't help but sarcastically say in their hearts at the same time: What an old fox.
Song Jiangping continued his performance and speech that had changed in the eyes of the two people in front of him: "Although these two unfortunate accidents happened outside the school and had nothing to do with the school, after all, they all involved the students of the school, which had a certain negative impact on the image of the school in the outside world. So ......"
Wu Yun didn't want to listen to his pretending words anymore, so he interrupted: "Okay, Principal Song, I understand what you mean. As a professional magazine journalist, I will definitely do my best in the next half month. ”
Song Jiangping did not show a displeased look on his face, but had a hint of relief, and said: "After all, you are a professional, so it is inconvenient for you to say anything more." In the next six months, you and your assistant can enter and leave the school freely, and if you need to enter certain areas, you can inform Director Qi to let him enter or send someone to accompany you to enter and exit. You can interview students, faculty, and staff on campus, as long as they do not interfere with normal instruction. Later, Director Qi will also give each of you a temporary campus card, which you can use to eat in the cafeteria and buy goods in the store, and the cost of the card will be provided by our school. If you have other special needs, you can contact Director Qi at any time and ask him to make arrangements. ”
The convenience that Principal Song could provide them with was exhaustive, and Wu Yun nodded without objection: "Okay, thank you." ”
"Next, let Director Qi accompany you to visit the campus, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany you." Principal Song stood up and said politely.
Wu Yun, Wei Xiaofeng, and Director Qi also stood up. Wu Yun said, "Principal Song, you are busy, let's go first." I'll send it to you when the first draft of the article is finished? ”
"It couldn't be better." Song Jiangping nodded expressionlessly, and then instructed Qi Xueshan, "Director Qi, greet the two guests well." ”
Qi Xueshan bowed his head humbly and responded, "Yes, principal, let's go first." ”
The three of them went out of the principal's office, first went down to the dean's office on the fourth floor, and after Qi Xueshan handed them the two temporary campus cards, he took them to the No. 3 teaching building of the junior high school located on the west side of the administration building.
Building 3 looks much the same as Buildings 1 and 2, and during the break between classes 3 and 4, students can be seen wearing Scottish-style uniforms in the corridors on each floor.
Staring at the arc-shaped teaching building and listening to the noisy and noisy voices in her ears, Wei Xiaofeng suddenly appeared in a trance in front of her eyes, and a sense of déjà vu once again crept into her heart without a trace.
- Again......
Wei Xiaofeng couldn't help but stop, his body shaking......
