Under the organization of the school youth league committee, the students held a birthday party for Zhang Qian and bought a double-layered cake with nineteen candles on it. Zhang Qian was very popular and hundreds of classmates came to pay their respects. Downstairs of the boys' dormitory
A sea of candles.
With so many people sharing the grief of losing their loved ones, the Zhang family's grief has eased slightly, but the topic of compensation has never been mentioned. Maybe they were too sad and forgot about it, or maybe they were too kind and didn't even think of it. Liu Handong sent them off in the evening
After returning to the hotel to rest, I couldn't help but offer that the school could provide some compensation. Please tell me how much.
Father Zhang said quietly: "That's the price of a child's life, and you can't buy it for anything."
Liu Handong said: "If a student dies in school, the school must bear some responsibility. Don't worry, just make demands."
Zhang’s father thought about it seriously and said, “Then let’s refund the child’s tuition fees for the past few years.”
Only then did Liu Handong realize that this family is really kind. Looking at Zhang's father and Zhang's mother, they are the most honest type in the countryside who dare not cause trouble and are bullied by village cadres to the end. Although Zhang Yan is in the dust, she is not a sharp-tongued person.
.
"Then what are your plans?" Liu Handong asked.
"The Zhang family cannot have offspring, so let's try to raise a child. If that doesn't work, just buy one." Zhang's father said, he was not joking. In the minds of rural people, buying a child to continue the family life is a matter of course and has nothing to do with breaking the law.
.
Zhang Yan's eyes were red, and she choked and said: "Dad, it is against the law to buy a child. Don't worry. I have quit my job. I will never marry in this life. I will provide for you in your old age. We will not go back to the village. We will rent a house in the county."
I have a house to live in. I have saved some money from working over the years, which is enough to open a small clothing store."
The family was discussing their future life plans, and Liu Handong didn't want to interrupt, so he said goodbye and left. After leaving the hotel, he saw Kan Wanlin squatting on the roadside smoking. When he saw him coming out, he winked and said: "Brother Dong, that little girl is quite interesting.
.”
Liu Handong said: "Stop making decisions, it's not your cup of tea."
Kan Wanlin said: "Brother Dong, you also leave a way for your brothers to survive. You can't take them all."
Liu Handong said, "Where are you thinking? This is the sister of the student who was killed. She is here to hold a funeral. Why are you making fun of her?"
Kan Wanlin scratched his head and said, "It must have been a case a few days ago. A student was stabbed more than a dozen times, and his clothes were soaked with blood. I know that. The murderer came in my car."
Liu Handong was very interested: "Is there any inside story?"
Kan Wanlin said: "There is no inside story. Everything that needs to be said has been told to the police. The murderer is named Guo Hui, who also graduated from this school. He has no serious job. He helps people in nightclubs and is just a thug. He is Zhang Qian's son.
I was pregnant, and I didn’t know whose father the child was. Both parties didn’t admit it and they started having sex. As a result, a knife was used and someone died. If you want me to say one thing, you deserve to die!”
Liu Handong said: "If you don't speak harsh words, you won't die if you don't commit suicide. But don't say this in front of your family members. By the way, whose bastard is in that woman's belly?"
Kan Wanlin said: "That's not clear. Female students nowadays are very open-minded. Whoever comes with whomever comes is the fucking handler. If you don't test DNA, how can you check it?"
Liu Handong asked where the girl was now. Kan Wanlin spread his hands and said, "I'm not from the police station. I just drive a black car. If you ask me, I'll ask who to go to."
This was not a problem for Liu Handong. He returned to the office of the Academic Affairs Office, called his three assistants and a correspondent, and asked them about Zhang Qian's girlfriend. Whether things in the school should be kept secret or not, these are all open secrets. , Zhang Qian’s girlfriend is called He Ting. She is from this city. She is tall and fair-skinned. She is the goddess in the hearts of many losers. Zhang Qian spent a lot of effort to get her.
"What about the He Ting people?" Liu Handong asked.
"I don't know. I haven't seen Zhang Qian since her accident. I heard the police station is also looking for her," Shen Han said.
Liu Handong slapped the table: "Mobilize the members to find He Ting even if they dig through the mouse holes."
The power of the masses is infinite. It happened to be the weekend the next day and the students had a holiday. Scouts from the Youth League Committee were out in all directions. In the evening, intelligence feedback came back, saying that He Ting was surfing the Internet at the Dihao Internet Cafe at the south end of Tiezha Street.
At this time, Liu Handong was reading in the library of Jiangdong University. He had multiple jobs. He was the Dean of Students of the School of Transportation and a student of the History Department of Jiangdong University. His personality was almost split. He had no time to study during the day, so he had to come to Jiangdong University on his days off. Reading, after receiving the information, he immediately rode his motorcycle back to Tiezha Street.
There was already a group of students waiting downstairs in the Internet cafe. When Liu Handong arrived, he hurriedly reported: "He Ting is playing games up there. We were afraid that she would run away, so we didn't alert her, so we were guarding down below."
"Well done." Liu Handong led everyone upstairs. The Dihao Internet Cafe has two floors and hundreds of machines. The first floor is ordinary machines. The second floor has private rooms with air conditioning. It can also provide hot water, instant noodles, bedding, and even Condoms, there are many gamers who live in private rooms all year round, and they can go for months without leaving the house.
As soon as we went up to the second floor, a mixed smell of various smells hit our faces. The smell of stinky feet, instant noodles, and JY was so suffocating that people were suffocated. However, the players were happy with it. They were wearing clothes that they hadn't changed in several weeks. Pulling on her slippers and wearing headphones, she worked hard in front of the screen.
"Where's He Ting?" Liu Handong asked, standing in front of an empty private room. There were NutriExpress bottles, empty cigarette boxes and instant noodle cups on the table, but there was no one around.
"I seem to have gone to the bathroom." The network administrator ran over and said.
The restroom on the second floor was for both men and women, and the door was closed. Liu Handong signaled the network administrator to knock on the door, but no one answered after knocking for a few times. Liu Handong was moved in his heart, and kicked the door open. He saw a girl in a skirt sitting in the blood. A newly delivered baby is thrown into a pit.
"Stop!" Liu Handong stepped forward and grabbed the baby. The umbilical cord was still connected. He Ting was dripping with sweat, her face was pale, and she asked weakly: "Who are you?"
Liu Handong ignored her, took out the Swiss Army knife he carried with him, cut the umbilical cord, asked the network administrator to bring a clean towel, and then called an ambulance.
The baby's face was blue and purple, and he didn't say a word. In desperation, Liu Handong hung him upside down and slapped him a few times. Then the baby spit out a mouthful of blood and cried loudly.
The network administrator was dumbfounded. Dihao Internet Cafe has always had a lot of weird things, but this was the first time I had given birth here.
"Go quickly!" Liu Handong kicked him over.
Twenty minutes later, the ambulance came and picked up the mother and the baby. Liu Handong went with the car to the hospital. However, it was not convenient for him as an old man to take care of him, so he asked Shen Han to find a few girls to take care of him. The baby was born prematurely when he was under a month old. , it was expensive to put her in an incubator. He Ting was penniless and her parents did not show up, so Liu Handong had to pay the hospitalization deposit in advance.
"What the hell is this?" Liu Handong complained as he smoked a cigarette in the corridor. This dean of students was not easy to do, and he almost had to do obstetrics and gynecology at the same time.
"Family members of bed 25 are not allowed to smoke in the corridor." the nurse shouted.
Liu Handong hurriedly put out his cigarette butt, and the nurse came forward and handed over a bill of expenses: "We owe money again."
"Didn't you just pay a deposit of three thousand?" Liu Handong asked.
"Your child's brain is hypoxic. He needs hyperbaric oxygen and needs to live in an incubator. Three thousand is not enough, so he has to pay another five thousand." The nurse was very rude, because He Ting's ID card showed that he was only seventeen years old and was a minor. Liu Handong
Ruining a little girl to produce a child is a scumbag in the eyes of a hateful nurse.
"Nurse, you are mistaken. I am not the child's father. I am this girl's teacher and dean of students." Liu Handong explained in vain.
It was okay if he didn't explain. Once he did, the nurse looked at him with even more contempt: "You are just a teacher, you are just like a beast!" After the nurse finished scolding him, she walked away with her head held high.
Liu Handong shrugged helplessly, and turned around to see She Xiaoqing standing at the elevator entrance, looking at him in astonishment with a pair of big eyes, as if looking at a stranger.
"Assistant She, I was wronged." Liu Handong said with a sad face.
She Xiaoqing came to visit her classmates, but unexpectedly she saw this scene. Of course she believed that Liu Handong was unjust, because Liu Handong had only been appointed as the dean of students for less than a week, and rabbits did not have the time to eat grass from the side of their nests.
Liu Handong finally found someone to complain to, and dragged She Xiaoqing to complain. It was so difficult to be the dean of disciplines. It was simply not a job for human beings. Director Xia still refused to delegate power, and his school colleagues did not support him. He was hampered by everything, making everything difficult.
"Liu Er, thank you for your hard work." She Xiaoqing smiled playfully, "Hurry up and pay your child's fees."
"Who is the father of this child? I'm afraid it will be an eternal mystery." Liu Handong sighed and went to pay the bill again. When he came back, She Xiaoqing had already left.
He Ting's parents still haven't shown up. It is said that her father is serving a sentence in prison, her mother has remarried and moved out of town, and there is only one grandmother in the family. She is over eighty years old and can't walk, let alone take care of her granddaughter.
After all, He Ting was young and in good health. She was in good spirits after taking two bottles of nutrient solution. Liu Handong sat by the bed and asked her: "Why did you drown the child?"
"He shouldn't have come to this world in the first place." He Ting turned her head, not looking into the eyes of the dean of students.
This girl is very delicate, with a straight nose, double eyelids and dimples, a slender white neck, but her expression is irritable, confused, hesitant and fierce.
"Who is the father of the child?" Liu Handong asked.
He Ting bit her lip: "It's not you anyway."
"Do you know that Zhang Qian is dead? Guo Hui is listed as a wanted criminal. It will be a matter of time before he is caught and shot. Do you know this?" Liu Handong continued to ask.
He Ting didn't answer and looked out the window. After a long while, a crystal teardrop fell from the corner of her eye.
"I don't know who the child's father is. It might be Zhang Qian or Guo Hui. Neither of them admits their guilt and doesn't want to take responsibility. I don't even have the money for an abortion. I can only give birth to a child and I can't support him."
It's better to kill him." He Ting finally spoke, her voice a little hoarse, "Teacher, do you have a cigarette?"
