I live next door and my surname is Jiang

"I'm asking one last time, does anyone know where the kid went?"

Jiang Mianchi rarely showed such a serious expression to these children, but he felt that only by being serious can they really realize the seriousness of this matter.

Qin Zixiu stood aside with his lips pursed, as if silently supporting him, which gave Jiang Mianchi a lot of courage.

His voice was slow and firm, "I hope you all know that everyone in a class is a part of you. No matter who encounters this, I hope everyone can treat it as their own business."

"I know that many of you are very kind, but in order not to cause trouble, you dare not speak."

"But as long as one of you stands up now, maybe this child will be saved."

As soon as he finished speaking, he could clearly feel that the atmosphere in the classroom had changed. Although it was still very quiet, it didn't have the numb feeling before, but a dark surge gradually emerged.

Jiang Mian watched them patiently and waited.

After a while, a little girl raised her hand tremblingly, "Teacher, actually a few students didn't come today, but... maybe they know something."

Although he didn't directly tell the information about the missing little girl, but giving a clear clue is already quite remarkable. Jiang Mianchi gave her a grateful smile.

He and Qin Zixiu looked at each other, confirming each other's guess.

They exchanged eye contact, and were going to go to the homes of those students who didn't come to class to ask first, and most of them would be able to find out the result, but they were afraid that they would be a bunch of thorns and would not say anything.

Qin Zixiu nodded at Jiang Mianchi, motioning him to go and have a look first.

"Teacher, I may know where that girl is."

An immature voice sounded, his voice was trembling and hesitant, Jiang Mianchi looked towards the place where the voice came from, and saw Dai You's body like a small tree standing straight, staring blankly. Sleeping late with ginger.

Jiang Mian was stunned for a moment, then nodded, did not ask how he knew, but waved to him, "Go, take us there."

Dai You walked out under all the gazes. He didn't pay much attention to the scrutiny of others, but said to Jiang Mianchi, "I'm not sure, so I can only take you to take a look first."

Jiang Mianchi stretched out his hand to him, he was obviously stunned for a moment, then hesitantly put his hand on his hand, Jiang Mianchi shook his little hand, with a serious face, "Then please. "

This kind of concentration may have infected Dai You, so he also nodded cautiously, as if he was about to do something great.

Dai You took them to a deserted forest outside the village. Few people had ever entered that forest, so the child's parents naturally would not think of looking there.

Jiang Mianchi followed Dai You, looking around, getting more and more frightened as he walked.

Although the surrounding area can't be said to be dark and scary, but there are weeds and overgrown branches everywhere, Dai You took Jiang Mianchi and Qin Zixiu to shuttle between here with ease.

He looked back at Jiang Mianchi from time to time, and reminded him in a low voice that the ground was slippery and there were branches and thorns that would catch his clothes and hair. This made Jiang Mianchi, who was taken care of, funny and moved.

I didn't expect him to be so considerate at such a young age.

Dai You didn't stop until they reached a place where they couldn't feel the smoke and fire of the village at all.

There is a dead end in front of them, the branches and vines are entangled, and there is no way to move forward.

Jiang Mianchi looked at Dai You suspiciously, but Dai You let go of his hand, "wait for me," and then he got into the branch and disappeared completely.

Jiang Mianchi was very worried about him, but he didn't dare to run around, so he had to wait for him where he was.

Qin Zixiu dismissed a branch that made his hair messy, "You really believe him, how could the little girl be here in such a desolate place."

As soon as the words finished, Dai You came out. He didn't know if he didn't hear Qin Zixiu's words or he didn't bother to talk to him at all. He went straight to Jiang Mianchi, "She's inside."

Jiang Mianchi was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the vines in front, "You said she was inside?"

Dai You nodded lightly, "Come with me."

He took Jiang Mianchi's hand, and pushed aside the vines to reveal a hole for one person to pass through. Jiang Mianchi drilled in only to find that there was something strange here.

The vines actually grew on a mountain pass, and if you pull the vines away, you can enter a cave inside.

The sunlight came through the cracks in the stone, so the cave was not very dark. Jiang Mianchi looked around for a week, and he could roughly see the situation in the cave.

He saw a little girl curled up in a corner shivering.

Jiang Mianchi hurried over and put her hand gently on her shoulder. The little girl raised her head with a dazed expression. It took her a long time to react, and she just fainted when she was about to say something.

Jiang Mianchi straightened her body and let her lean on him.

Dai You looked at the little girl leaning against Jiang Mianchi blankly, wondering what he was thinking.

After a while, he opened his mouth, as if he was talking about something unrelated to him, "This is the "secret base" they discovered by accident once, and later it became a special place to punish "betrayers". Children who come here have to stay for ten hours, and they will be beaten if they go back early. I have stayed here several times, so I am more familiar with the way.”

As he spoke, he glanced lightly at the little girl in his arms, "It's probably the first time she's come to this place, she doesn't know how to get back, and no one came to pick her up, so she can only stay here."

Jiang Mianchi was terrified when he heard it, his face was dull, and Qin Zixiu beside him also frowned tightly.

He originally thought it was just ordinary campus bullying, but he didn't expect it to be so serious.

Jiang Mianchi was stuck in the shell for a while, and asked, "What is a betrayer?"

Dai You's voice was a bit contemptuous, as if he was mocking those school bully kids, and also seemed to be mocking himself, "Who knows, the so-called betrayers are all defined by them, and we have no right to speak."

It hurts to speak so sophisticatedly.

Jiang Mianchi thought of Dai You's familiar attitude when he brought them here just now, and clenched his fists, the resentment in his heart could not be suppressed.

His heart seemed to be grabbed by a big hand, which made him a little out of breath.

Fortunately, Qin Zixiu reacted quickly, and squeezed Jiang Mianchi's shoulder comfortingly, "Take the child home first, she must be terrified."

Jiang Mianchi raised his head blankly and nodded mechanically.

Qin Zixiu hugged the little girl in his arms with one hand, and tightly held his cold wrist with one hand.

They personally sent the little girl back home. The little girl's parents rushed forward to see the little girl with gratitude, but her brother had a normal attitude, standing lazily and smoking, looking at his sister with disgusted eyes, as if Not really looking forward to her coming back the same way.

He looked at Jiang Mianchi with frivolous and lewd eyes. If Qin Zixiu who was standing next to him hadn't been stopped by Jiang Mianchi, he would probably have to educate him in front of his parents. This is organized exclusively by Yuxi, so stay tuned for more highlights.

Jiang Mianchi was not interested in the little girl's brother, and even taking a second look was a waste, so he just dragged Qin Zixiu to the homes of those children who did not go to school.

Those children hid in the room and refused to come out after knowing the teacher was coming, but Jiang Mianchi didn't come to find them.

After he entered someone's house, he didn't make a long speech, but just asked their parents to follow him.

Jiang Mianchi took them to the cave that the children discovered, and told them the whole story.

Their first reaction was to refuse to believe it, but several children came forward to accuse them, so they had to believe that their children really did such a bad thing.

An old woman was quite old, with tears streaming down her cheeks, pulling Jiang Mian to apologize incoherently, "My children are not disciplined well, what a crime."

Jiang Mian thought about it for a long time, and finally told so many parents what she was thinking, "Some kindness should be cultivated from an early age, and it is not something that can be fooled by a joke between children, nor is it shirked by irresponsible parents. excuse for responsibility."

Among them were middle-aged women and old people with rotten thoughts, but they were not stubborn this time, and they all expressed that they would educate their children well when they returned home.

Jiang Mianchi saw that what they said was almost done, and then asked Dai You to take them back.

After everyone had left, he found a place in the cave and sat down by himself.

Qin Zixiu saw his movements, didn't ask any more questions, but sat down next to him as if he didn't pay attention at all.

Jiang Mian stared blankly at the top of the cave, and a few rays of sunlight came through.

He imagined what the teenagers were thinking when they were forced to stay here.

They will definitely be afraid, and they will also think about why it is themselves, they will doubt life, doubt their own value, those are not what Jiang Mianchi wants to see.

After a while, Qin Zixiu touched his hand and pulled him back, "Are you leaving soon?"

Jiang Mianchi counted the time, only to realize that he was indeed going to leave here soon, but he was actually very reluctant, completely worried about these children.

Qin Zixiu also saw his depressed mood, hooked the corners of his lips, and followed his gaze to look at the cave roof, "Go back, leave the rest to me, you've done a good job."

Jiang Mianchi was stunned for a moment.

After a while, he smiled, put aside the messy thoughts in his heart, and said sincerely, "Thank you."

Qin Zixiu knew that he was already worried here, so he took care of all his worries so that he could go back with peace of mind.

Seeing that he finally smiled, Qin Zixiu felt relieved.

He subconsciously took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, and when he realized that Jiang Mianchi was by his side, he wanted to put the cigarettes back in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, Jiang Mianchi took the cigarette and lighter in his hand and lit one for him. The root stuffed into his mouth.

Qin Zixiu squinted at his face through the smoke, "Don't you like the smell of smoke?"

Jiang Mianchi stuffed the cigarette case in his pocket, "I feel fine now."

Qin Zixiu took a deep breath of the cigarette and exhaled it in the air. The smell of the cigarette spread between the two of them, and even Jiang Mianchi's body was a little tainted.

After thinking about it, he took out a small clip from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Mianchi.

Jiang Mianchi looked it over and over again, and found that it was a tie clip made of brass. The design was very unique, and it was specific at first glance. He was a little flattered, "Give it to me?"

Qin Zixiu nodded indifferently, "I often wear this when I'm at home. I don't wear shirts much after I come here. I'll leave it for you as a souvenir."

Jiang Mianchi nodded, without further evasion, and obediently put away the tie clip.

Qin Zixiu twitched the corner of his mouth slightly when he saw his precious movement.

"I don't seem to have ever said why I came here?"

Jiang Mianchi gave him a puzzled look.

Qin Zixiu looked pale, and he stubbed out the cigarette, "My dad forced me to come here, saying that he wanted me to come here for a few months to try and test. At first I was very reluctant, but later I found out that life here is not bad."

Jiang Mianchi nodded.

Although the infrastructure here is not as good as that of the city, the slow-paced life is very pleasant, allowing people to forget their troubles and anxiety and calm down slowly.

Qin Zixiu looked at him blankly, with a face that didn't get what he meant, and patted his forehead, "I have to go back in a month, wait for me."

Jiang Mianchi hesitated for a moment, but said nothing, just nodded.

Qin Zixiu hooked the corners of his mouth in satisfaction, and lifted him up with his big hands, "Let's go."

The little girl who was brought back woke up after a few hours.

It's just that she called Teacher Jiang's name as soon as she woke up, and she lay back quietly until he saw that the person in front of him was not Teacher Jiang but his parents.

She closed her eyes and muttered to herself.

It seems to have had a good dream.
