After resting at home for a night, Ma Long got up early the next morning. After exercising in the yard, he finished breakfast and planned to go to the school to take a look. He hadn't been to school for several days, although he knew there wouldn't be anything big there.
Something happened, but I still miss it.
Zhou Qingqing and Lily Frances are still left at home.
When a group of people went to work or school, Zhou Qingqing even joked, "I really want to go to school too. I will have to visit the school another day."
"Why don't we go together?" Ma Long opened the car door and said, "The campus is big anyway, would you like Yaoyao to accompany you around it?"
Zhou Qingqing smiled and thought about it, but still refused: "Forget it, I won't disturb the students there. When the weekend comes, you will go with me, okay?"
"Okay, this Saturday, we will be driving to the campus to play, and there will be fewer students at that time." Malone got into the car, and Sansa and others also got in one after another. The car slowly drove out of the yard, and everyone waved and stood there.
Zhou Qingqing said goodbye at the gate.
Zhou Qingqing returned to the room with a smile and said to herself: "I have to step up my self-study. Maybe I will have a chance to go to college. Lily, are you right?"
Lily Frances walked behind her, said "Hmm" absently, and then closed the door.
Driving to school for the first time saved a lot of time on the road. However, Malone had to send Susan to the police station first, and then drove back to school. When he arrived at the school gate, he calculated the time and it was almost the same as walking.
too much.
Today, the entrance of the school seemed a little deserted. The original lively scene was gone. Every student entered and left the school in silence. Ma Long knew that it must be because the news of Director Qian's suicide had spread throughout the campus.
"Brother Xiao Ma, have you heard..." Li Fu saw Ma Long entering the door and quickly leaned in to gossip.
"I heard." Ma Long replied before the other party finished speaking.
"Huh?" Li Fu was surprised and asked, "Brother Xiao Ma, do you know what I want to say?"
Ma Long entered the guard room, and Li Fu followed him. After changing clothes, Ma Long said, "Don't you just want to tell me the news about Director Qian's suicide? I understand."
Li Fu was surprised again and exclaimed: "Brother Ma, you really have the ability to predict the future. By the way, last time you told me to buy a lottery ticket, I listened to you, bought a bet, and sure enough I won.
A third prize is worth tens of thousands of dollars! You are amazing!" He told Ma Long excitedly, and then asked, "Brother Ma, when do you think I can win another big prize? Not more, just win the first prize once.
Got it!"
Ma Long rolled his eyes at him and said, "Winning the third prize once is a sign of your character. Aren't you satisfied?" He secretly used physiognomy to look at his face, and then shook his head, "How has your fortune been lately?"
In general, don’t waste your money on random lottery tickets. It’s the right thing to give up and work hard!”
Li Fu retracted his intention to buy lottery tickets and brought the topic back to Director Qian: "Why did you think he was so good and then suddenly committed suicide? Even if he has to go to jail, he won't commit suicide, right?"
"I think the gap must be unbearable." Zhang Jian on the side analyzed, "In the past, Director Qian was very prestigious in the school, and the Minister of Finance was a veteran. Even the newly appointed principal had to look up to him.
His expression. Not only can he be brought down all at once this time, but he will also have to spend more than ten years in prison. Who else could bear it?"
The two got together and had a heated discussion in the guard room. Ma Long did not participate, but he felt that what they both said made sense. Whether it was the "conspiracy theory" analyzed by Susan yesterday or the "conspiracy theory" that Zhang Jian said just now
"Gap theory" may be one of the reasons why Director Qian committed suicide. However, I am afraid only the deceased himself knows the specific reasons best.
After changing clothes, I returned to the school gate. After standing there for a while, Niu Gao, the security captain, ran over in a hurry. He saw Ma Long standing at the gate and felt that he was coming over.
"Brother Xiao Ma, have you heard..." Niu Gao opened his mouth and said.
After hearing this, Ma Long smiled bitterly in his heart. Why did everyone mention this topic first when meeting people today? "I heard it, I heard it."
"Oh?" Niu Gao originally thought that Ma Long had not come to school for many days, so there should be no news in this regard, and wanted to tell Ma Long the ins and outs of the matter in detail. Hearing that Ma Long already knew, he approached Ma Long and whispered, "After school last night
At that time, the principal came to talk to me."
"What are you talking about?" Malone asked.
Niu Gao continued in a low voice: "Following your instructions, I conducted a detailed investigation into the leaked fish in the school and planned to catch all Director Qian's remaining members. It turned out that the principal also heard about it. But since what happened yesterday,
After that, the principal asked to stop the investigation and let the matter rest for a while."
Ma Long nodded: "Then you listen to the principal and don't investigate this matter yet. The most important thing is to let the principal understand that you are on his side."
"Okay, I just want to hear Brother Xiao Ma's opinion." Niu Gao smiled with relief, "I feel relieved when you say that." Then Niu Gao called out Li Fu and Zhang Jian in the guard room, and clicked
After taking my name, I happily returned to the office.
Daily campus life has begun again. Although the incident of Director Qian has cast a shadow on the campus, it has also become a hot topic of discussion in private. For example, Li Fu and Zhang Jian in the guard room theorized that Director Qian committed suicide one day
The motivation made Ma Long dumbfounded. As for Yaoyao, although she was a little depressed because of the loss of her sister just now, she came to the big family of the school and was accompanied by her trained Guards. Soon, she
She also smiled happily.
The day ended quickly, and when it was time to relax after get off work, Ma Long drove into his car again and took Shen Bingbing, Qin Xue and Yaoyao home with him.
The courtyard door outside the villa was tightly closed, and Ma Long pressed the car horn many times but there was no response. He had to get out of the car and get the key to open the door.
"That's weird, doesn't Lily usually leave the courtyard door waiting for us to come back?" Shen Bingbing also got out of the car, waited for the door to open, and walked directly back to the door of her house.
Ma Long got in the car again and drove into the courtyard. Qin Xue waited at the door and then closed the courtyard door.
Climbing the steps of the villa, Shen Bingbing was standing at the door knocking on the door, but no one opened the door.
"What's going on?" Ma Long asked strangely, "There's no one at home?" He took out the key again and opened the door.
The room was deserted. Ma Long and others went in and called for a long time, but no one answered.
Shen Bingbing guessed: "Maybe you went out to buy something?"
But after a while, the attentive Qin Xue came out of the kitchen and said uneasily: "There is no meal prepared at home, not even lunch, only a little breakfast. It seems that after we left, there was no one at home during the day."
"
Ma Long glanced at the coffee table. There was nothing on it. Zhou Qingqing usually liked to sit in front of the sofa with Lily, drinking tea and chatting. Could it be that the two of them went out to play? Ma Long remembered that when he left in the morning, Zhou Qingqing also wanted to follow him.
Go around the school, maybe visit other schools with Lily.
Despite such optimistic thoughts, the two of them had never played so late without going home. It was almost six o'clock now, and for some reason, Ma Long's heart was cast with a shadow of uneasiness.
Yaoyao stayed at the gate and circled around, sniffing and looking around. Finally, she came back and said to Ma Long worriedly: "It seems like there have been outsiders at home..."
