Same crime

"That's the end of today's class, get out of class is over!" As soon as Gong Yuechao finished speaking, the classroom became chaotic.It's really difficult for these half-grown children who are at the most positive stage of thinking to sit in a class honestly and listen to him rambling.Several mischievous boys bowed to him, shouted "Teacher Xiaochao" in unison, and pushed one by one to go out. As soon as they walked out of the classroom door, the one walking in front suddenly stopped, and the one behind A series of them all collided.The bastard at the back was the thorny head of the class, and he yelled at the first one: "Luo Xuwei, fuck off, you killed me!" He exaggeratedly rubbed his forehead.

The boy who was called Luo Xuwei didn't speak, but the people behind Luo Xuwei laughed and said, "Luo Xuwei met the girl from class two, please be considerate."

"Oh..." Ci'ertou prolonged his voice deliberately, just in time for the whole class to hear it, and bursts of laughter filled the classroom.

Gong Yue looked at them with a smile on his face, and lamented how good it is to be young, although sometimes these people are really annoying, once he was so angry that after class, he sat on a chair in the office to relax for a long time, and his head was buzzing , but if you really get along with them for a long time, you will feel that they are really innocent and cute.

Suijiang City Fifth Senior High School is a local non-key high school located in Lixia District of Suijiang City. Gong Yuechao has been teaching in this high school for five full years.This year, he taught three classes of Chinese in the first year of senior high school, and basically had three classes every day. He liked the school, but he had some resistance to the school because of his childhood experience. What he likes is that the school environment is relatively closed and the interpersonal relationship is relatively simple. , although there are intrigues, it is much better than the outside.He has a very easy-going personality, but he doesn’t have many true friends. The psychologist said that he has a moderate communication barrier. He knows it is because his good friend Chen Yusheng is always in the role of giving and tolerance in this friendship. .Perhaps because of his professional relationship, he will take the initiative to show a certain amount of care to strangers, but when the other party wants to get close to him, he consciously keeps a certain distance from them. Some people who don't know him say that he is aloof and not easy to contact, but People who have been with him for a long time will help him argue that Mr. Gong is very nice when they hear such words.He is well-known for his good temper in the teaching and research group. He digests everything he says and never complains. He basically laughs off jokes. Coupled with his harmless appearance, he is very cute. The eldest sister and aunts of this Chinese teaching and research group with yin and yang decline.

After washing his hands, he put down the rolled-up shirt sleeves, patted the chalk dust on his body, fastened the cuff buttons, and took the overcoat hanging on the chair and the handout on the podium, calmly go to the office.He met several students on the road and said hello to him, and he responded one by one. The office is not far from the classroom. He went in and put his clothes on the chair. He drank the water that was left to dry before class. When talking about the recent gossip, Gong Yuechao was willing to listen to the teachers at the school talk about it, but he didn't participate in it, mainly because it was interesting, and it was a channel for him to get in touch with the outside world, which could open his lonely heart.Seeing him coming, an enthusiastic female teacher took out a few green peel oranges from a plastic bag on the table and threw them to him, "Mr. Gong, get out of class is over, come and eat oranges, they are so sweet."

No wonder the office is filled with a unique refreshing aroma of oranges. There are orange peels that are about to be dried on the radiator in the office as an air freshener, adding a little fun to this boring winter day.

He smiled and thanked: "Thank you, Teacher Zhang." He was not polite, took one and pulled it out, carefully picked off the orange string and put it on the orange peel, and then sent a piece to his mouth.

The teacher surnamed Zhang who gave him the oranges saw it and said, "Mr. Gong, you are really meticulous. You even picked the oranges that reduce the fire."

He said, "I don't like that, it's a little bit bitter." He still didn't stop picking the orange stalks. Apart from this reason, he also hates it in his heart, but he can't say it, which seems hypocritical.

Unsurprisingly, Teacher Zhang laughed at him again: "Big man, are you still afraid of suffering? And it's not bitter..."

Gong Yuezhao is notoriously afraid of bitter taste, and his tongue is very sensitive. He usually drinks plain water, and he doesn't touch coffee, tea, or chocolate. He even takes a detour from the bitter gourd made in the cafeteria. He doesn't eat oranges because they feel bitter. Grapefruit is also not eaten, and no one knows why.Gong Yuechao knew that what Teacher Zhang said was a joke, she lowered her head with a smile and continued to pick at the tangerines without any excuse.

As they talked, they talked about the recent social incidents. One teacher suddenly lowered his voice, and showed the mysterious expression that would be specially shown when telling secrets, as if this matter was not enough for outsiders. Come on, or what a big event, usually open the mouth such as "Do you know?" This time is no exception, she said this first, and then said: "The recent news is not Did you say that there have been several injury cases in our city?" After she finished speaking, she was satisfied to see other people's curiosity, and then said in a mysterious way: "Two days ago, another person was attacked, and it seems to be the chief secretary of the district government. , the leaders above couldn’t see that the people below were injured, and the deputy district chief in charge of public security paid special attention to it, and ordered them to solve the case, hey, you don’t know, my husband hasn’t been home for several days.” The speaker’s husband is Lixia District Public Security Bureau, she is particularly sensitive to such social incidents, and can always share some internal information, and she doesn't know whether the police need to abide by the confidentiality agreement.

Gong Yuechao listened to their chat quietly, put the clean orange slices in his mouth and chewed carefully, the slightly sour juice seeped into his throat along the teeth, nourishing him. After three lectures, he finished eating. He patted the things on his hands, took out a red pen from the pen container, and began to correct the homework received today.

A teacher asked: "Hey, who is so mad?"

"I don't know." The teacher shook his head first, and then said: "The chief secretary was not seriously injured, and there were almost no clues left at the scene. I feel that the perpetrator has a high IQ."

"Hey... the current society..." Before the exclamation was finished, the class bell rang, and the female teacher who said about the social incident suddenly remembered that she had a class, grabbed the lesson plan on the table and ran to the classroom.The class bell seemed to be a sharp weapon to restrain the teachers. Several teachers returned to their seats one after another, chatting one after another while preparing lessons or correcting homework.

The food in the school cafeteria is really bland and tasteless, and after the leaves turn yellow and start to fall, the menu becomes monotonous. The dishes on the dining table are cabbage, radish, tofu, and potatoes, which alternate with each other, sometimes every week. Can't see any green, Gong Yuechao has the kind of body that is easy to lose weight, if he doesn't eat well, he will drop off the scale, so he has to go home at night to give himself extra meals, and he is not very good at cooking, so he takes care of himself to a mess.Some teachers quietly commented that the principal contracted the canteen to relatives at home, and the monthly food expenses they paid would not be refunded, but the principal and his good relatives coveted it, which is why they ate so poorly. Three people become tigers, everyone thinks so.Today I made stewed tofu with cabbage. In a large pot of vegetables, there were a few pieces of fat meat that had been smelted with meat oil, and there were not a few oil stars in the turbid soup. It will be used to make buns, and it will make people's head numb when they eat it in one bite.

The cafeteria is such a place where people lose their appetite. Gong Yuechao usually talks less and doesn't complain. After eating half a bowl of rice with radish and pickles, he put down his chopsticks. The female teacher at the same table was full of anger and chanted I will definitely bring a bottle of Laoganma to dinner tomorrow.

Just as Gong Yuezhao stood up and walked out, the mobile phone in his pocket rang. Seeing that it was his mother, he picked it up: "Hello, Mom."

He was not close to his mother. When he was in the second year of junior high school, his father who had been paralyzed for more than two years and continued to drink alcohol finally passed away. Not long after, his mother remarried.Gong Yuechao didn't hate her mother, she even felt that her father had dragged her down, she also had the right to pursue her own happy life, her mother gave birth to a daughter with her stepfather in the second year of marriage, her stepfather treated him lukewarm, and his sister was born Afterwards, he became even more unfamiliar. In fact, he also understood that with a biological child, who would give his heart to a fool.

At that time, Gong Yuezhao had low self-esteem, and tried to reduce his sense of existence in that family.In the college entrance examination, he chose a normal class with a lower tuition fee, and went to Zhangzhou, the provincial capital. He did not rely on his family for four years in college. He relied on tutoring to earn living expenses. He occasionally bought clothes and snacks for his younger sister. Stretched.Fortunately, he was lucky. After graduation, he returned to Suijiang and was admitted as a teacher. He originally lived in his stepfather's house, but later he planned to move because he was far away from the school.As his younger sister grew older, it was really hard for a family of four to squeeze into the small house of less than [-] square meters, and he couldn't see the closeness of the three of them, as if he was an outsider, he wanted to rent a house, Unexpectedly, his stepfather took [-] yuan to him, and said something sincere and sincere: "Yue Chao, look at these years, uncle has not given you any care, and your mother's thoughts are all on Juan'er, what about your tuition fees?" Living expenses are all earned by myself. I don’t have much money here. There are still many places to spend money. I can only spend so much. I guess it’s enough for you to buy a second-hand small house and pay a down payment. You live on your own first. When you find someone to get married in the future, uncle will give you money in exchange for the older one."

Gong Yuechao never knew his stepfather, or in other words, he never thought of trying to understand him. He had never changed his name to "Dad" after being an oil bottle for so many years. What he had experienced before was too lazy to tell others, and it made him He remained somewhat unfamiliar with everyone. Hearing what his stepfather said, tears welled up in the circles of his eyes a few times, but he held back them and said "thank you" bluntly.He didn't know if it was his stepfather's sincerity or his mother's private money contributed to pull this weak family relationship, but he was really grateful in his heart.

Now he doesn't have much contact with his mother, let alone being close. He is afraid of being disturbed, so he basically doesn't take the initiative to call. Occasionally, his mother will call him, and most of them ask him to go back to eat. This time it must be the same thing .

The mother's voice was a little excited, "Xiao Chao, your uncle brought some river crabs from Lingquan, wow, you are very fat, come back to have dinner tonight." Gong Yuezhao didn't like his mother calling him Xiao Chao, because I always feel like I am calling the little maid who hangs around Zhang Wuji.Before he could resist, it seemed that a lively crab ran out. Before he could respond, his mother yelled: "Hey, where are you going? Old Xie, go catch that crab, left, left, run again went to the right..."

Gong Yuechao left the cafeteria and waited patiently for his mother and stepfather to finish catching crabs before he had time to talk to him. "Xiao Chao, this river crab is really good, running around all over the place, remember to come back!"

"...Well, good." Gong Yuechao agreed.
