Superiors make subordinates wait, leaders make employees wait, teachers make students wait... it's probably a habit.
Even though he arrived at the school and the Academic Affairs Office on time, Luo Qiu did not see the teacher he was looking for.
But he saw his only classmate.
Zhang Qinrui sat with him on a chair outside the Academic Affairs Office. Luo Qiu sat on the left side, and Miss Zhang sat on the right side.
The two of them did not deliberately distance themselves from each other, nor did they intend to close the distance. Sitting like this, they felt as if they were sitting in an ordinary classroom.
It was raining moderately outside, and the corridor outside the Academic Affairs Office was dim and dull at the moment.
Naturally, it is inconvenient to read the account book when outside. Remembering that Luo Qiu, who had not logged into his Zhihu account for a while, opened it, he found that there were new responses to the questions he had posted before.
It was the same ‘Golden Eyes’ who suggested to him last time that he might be the ‘Gospel of Judas’.
The general meaning is that it has been confirmed that there are no sources for those ancient characters. Jin Tong said that he is a student of ancient characters. He was recently thinking about doing a research project on ancient characters and became interested in the characters posted by Luo Qiu.
‘Golden Eyes’ left his email contact information.
Luo Qiu did not rush to respond to Golden Eyes' request, but suddenly had an inexplicable feeling that if he established a connection with Golden Eyes, something unexpected might happen.
He pondered for a moment, and did not choose to proactively greet Golden Eyes. Instead, he registered an ordinary email address and sent his email address.
Snap, snap, snap... snap.
There seemed to be some sound coming, which made Miss Zhang look around curiously. She first glanced at Luo Qiu casually, but saw that he seemed to have no reaction, so she looked in Luo Qiu's direction.
At 3:30 in the afternoon, in the dim corridor of the school building, Zhang Qingrui saw a little girl. She was probably only six or seven years old.
The little girl was wearing a plaid blue and white dress, and her face was a little pale... Zhang Qingrui couldn't see the little girl's appearance, he could only see her side face, and the little girl's actions at this time.
The little girl lowered her head and hit a dark red ball one by one.
Snap, snap, snap, snap.
The ball was bouncing, and the sound was steady and rhythmic. But the little girl's clothes were soaked, and with her head lowered, water could still be seen dripping from her hair.
Zhang Qingrui frowned and was about to walk over, but the little girl turned around while holding the ball in her hand.
"ah……"
Miss Zhang suddenly let out a low scream, and even her body couldn't help but take a small step back.
The little girl's big eyes, the wet hair sticking to her face, and the hairband with a bow, were not as impressive to Miss Zhang as the little girl's mouth.
Her mouth... was bloody and bloody, and was actually sewn together by needles and threads, stitch by stitch!
…
The frightened Miss Zhang tightly covered her mouth with her hands, but in the blink of an eye, the little girl with her mouth sewn shut was thrown away from her.
"Luo, Luo Qiu, you, have you seen it?" Zhang Qingrui turned pale and looked at Luo Qiu at the end of the chair.
But Luo Qiu was still looking at his phone, as if he hadn't raised his head.
"What did you see?" Luo Qiu didn't even look up.
"Just now..." Zhang Qingrui was stunned for a moment and looked at the floor where the little girl was just now that should have been wet by the water on her body, but now it looked dry.
Zhang Qingrui suddenly felt a chill running down her body. In front of her eyes, the scene of the little girl's mouth being sutured was entangled in her mind, and she couldn't get rid of it.
"Sound, didn't you hear the sound just now?"
Luo Qiu then raised his head and looked at the door of the teaching office directly in front of him. He stood up and said, "I heard it, go in."
"Two classmates, come in!"
That was the voice of the teacher in the teaching office. Zhang Qingrui subconsciously glanced at the teaching office, and had the urge to say that it was not the teacher's voice, but when the words reached her lips, she swallowed them back.
Full of thoughts, she followed Luo Qiu and walked into the teaching office together.
A teacher in the teaching office, surnamed Wang. Teacher Wang led the two of them to a small room in the teaching office and sat down.
Teacher Wang, who is in his thirties, wears glasses and has short, sleek hair. Women of this age can generally maintain their hair very well as long as they take good care of themselves in today's era.
Zhang Qingrui glanced at the ring finger of Teacher Wang's left hand. There was a light ring mark on it. It must have been just a short time since the ring was taken off, and the original skin color had not recovered.
Have you just divorced...
"In the past two days, we have received reports from the family of Professor Qin Fang..." Teacher Wang was silent for a while and then said: "That is, the tutor of two classmates. According to his family, Professor Qin suddenly passed away due to a heart attack. We
We also received the professor’s death report.”
Zhang Qingrui frowned. She recalled what happened in the underground cemetery in Ulaanbaatar, but what she thought of at this time was his family members...how on earth did they get this death report.
It seems that the only relative of the professor is Qin Chuyu, Miss Qin?
"We are also very sad about what happened to Professor Qin Fang. However, people cannot be resurrected. Although the two students are students of the professor, don't be too sad." Teacher Wang said slowly: "Today we will send two students to
The reason for calling here is mainly to listen to your opinions."
Teacher Wang said: "You should also understand the majors of the two students. The school has arranged it this way. We can help you transfer departments. If you transfer, we can set up make-up courses for you during the summer vacation. Try to let them
Be able to keep up with the progress of study in the next semester..."
Luo Qiu said, "Are there any other arrangements?"
Teacher Wang nodded and said: "The other thing is that we will try our best to arrange a new teacher for you. Although you are in the second year, due to the special nature of the majors of the two classmates, basically a tutor is taking care of the students. Three or four
Students of the same age are now carrying out some research in other places under the leadership of other tutors... Or let the first-year teachers lead you. We can communicate as much as possible here. Otherwise, I'm afraid we can only
We can wait to hire new teachers, but it may take longer.”
Teacher Wang smiled and said: "Of course, the school will also give the two students time to think about it."
Luo Qiu nodded.
Zhang Qingrui suddenly said at this time: "Teacher...that thing..."
She pointed at a cabinet in the small room. Inside that cabinet, there was a small, dark red... ball! (To be continued.)
