The school building is bright and green.
Lin Zhaoxi was wearing the school uniform of Hongxing Primary School, standing at the gate of Anning Experimental Primary School, looking inside.
The sun is pouring down, and there are vibrant faces inside the gate.
Boys suits and ties, girls skirts and white socks. At that time, schools carried out school uniform reform one after another, but only the best elementary schools would allow students to wear a complete set.
If the previous loneliness belonged to Xiaolin Zhaoxi, then the current loneliness must belong to Dalin Chaoxi.
The beautiful small courtyard in front of her was her former school, but now, she couldn't get in.
Because this is Shishi Primary School, the best elementary school in the city. And the elementary school in the Red Star Welfare Institute is Hongxing Elementary School, which is on the other side of the street, and it is not ranked in the city.
A few hours ago, she complained that Pei Zhi and Pei Zhi were in the same school and in different classes, and that their lives had no intersection. Well now, even the setting of the same school is gone, this is really no intersection.
The world of cheese can be brutal.
Slapped in the face by reality, she was so depressed that she bumped her head against the stainless steel railing, making a loud bang.
The uncle guard of the Experimental Primary School was not far away. He was taken aback and waved to her, telling her to leave quickly.
She lowered her head, glanced at her red school pants and gray sneakers, which had been washed into pink, and turned away silently.
Even though it is the distance between streets and alleys, with a distance of seven or eight hundred meters, there is a world of difference between the friendship school and the experimental primary school.
Hongxing Primary School is neither the city's key nor the district's key point. It is a normal Xincun primary school, covering a large area. There are many students, the school buildings are in short supply, and everything looks dilapidated.
She also stood at the entrance of Hongxing Primary School for a while, during which time she encountered senior students blackmailing lower grade students.
She turned her head and left without hesitation, continuing her journey to find her father.
She is a college student, and skipping classes is as common as eating and drinking for her, and she doesn't feel guilty at all.
…
Zhuanzhu Lane is very close to the two schools, a five-minute walk.
In the past, Lao Lin spent tens of thousands of dollars in school selection fees to let her go to the experimental primary school. After all his savings were exhausted, he rented a small yard next to the experimental primary school, so that she could sleep more every day. .
When renting a house back then, Lao Lin immediately fell in love with Zhuan Zhuxiang.
Zhuan Zhu was an ancient assassin who stabbed Wang Liao with a sword hidden in his belly.
Lao Lin is a mathematician and lacks literary literacy.
At that time, the rental agency was telling the story of "Zhuzhu", boasting that this alley has a long history, and Lao Lin said with emotion, "There used to be a river nearby, but I didn't see it just now."
The intermediary reacted for a few seconds, his face was livid, and he was angry with the landlord, and almost didn't rent the house to them.
Walking along the alley, there are exactly the same white walls and black tiles everywhere. The footsteps slowed down, and Lin Zhaoxi was stunned again.
She is not a road idiot, but she is not good at keeping track of the family. When she first moved in, she knocked on the wrong door twice and was sent back by neighbors. Lao Lin thought of a way, wrote a mathematical formula on the door with red paint, and made it a signpost for her.
Walking from No. 1 Zhuanzhu Lane to No. 299, Lin Zhaoxi didn't see the door with mathematical formulas painted on it, so she was in a delicate mood.
I am disappointed that I may not be able to find Lao Lin here, and I am glad that there may not be another Lin Zhaoxi in the cheese world.
Walking around again, she finally found the small courtyard where Lao Lin once lived with by forcefully remembering people.
The door looked similar to what I remembered, it was a tin door with copper nails. The family next door raised a chihuahua, which is still barking every day.
Accompanied by the chihuahua's cry, she took a step back, raised her head, and continued to observe the small courtyard, comparing it with what she remembered.
The color of frosted window paper? Can not remember.
The style of the door lock? Can not remember.
Moss shapes on the wall? How could this be remembered!
Finally, she looked at the vines sprouting from the courtyard wall for a long time...
It's green and shiny, and it sways when the wind blows. Well, this one seems to be similar to what I remember.
But it's hard to tell what's going on just by looking at the outside. Lin Zhaoxi noticed with sharp eyes that there was a hole in the window paper.
She moved a few bricks, and after confirming that no one was around like a thief, she stepped on the bricks and leaned on the window sill, swaying her head, and looked into the hole.
The rooms are dark and simply furnished.
A bed, a desk, and a very old wardrobe, but nothing else.
In other words, no one was inside.
In the past, although Lao Lin lived in this room, it was full of her useless textbooks and children's books, like a garbage dump. Now, seeing the clean and tidy appearance of the room, she suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
But if you think about it from another angle, there seems to be no trace of the little girl living here.
Even if Lao Lin still lives here, he has no other daughters!
Lin Zhaoxi forced herself to comfort herself.
…
From the scorching sun to the setting sun. Lin Zhaoxi has been guarding the gate of the courtyard, not even seeing the owner, let alone her own father.
During such a long time of waiting, Lin Zhaoxi gradually came to her senses.
If you can't wait for Lao Lin here, then the most likely thing is that Lao Lin has already studied abroad, right
Not bad, she thought.
This is the life Lao Lin should have.
Moreover, maybe the future plot line will become the rich second generation recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors
She thought to herself, the sky was about to get dark, and she knew she had to go back.
When he was about to walk to the entrance of the orphanage, Lin Zhaoxi felt the aura of rain coming.
It's not that she has any supernatural powers, but that when she dragged her heavy steps to the alley, the little boy squatting under the street lamp let out a shocking roar: "Lin Zhaoxi! Come back, come, la!"
Lin Zhaoxi was taken aback and turned around to run.
The little boy had sharp eyes and quick hands, and rushed to hug his leg, and shouted while hugging: "Brother Xi is running away, everyone, come and catch her!"
Lin Zhaoxi lowered her head, looking at the boy rolling at her feet, wondering. It was agreed that every day she was rebellious, how could she have such no prestige among the children in the orphanage.
She stood still, then shook her feet and said, "Lin Aimin, it's almost ready."
"No, my aunt said, whoever catches you first can exchange for five pine nut candies."
Just as Lin Zhaoxi was about to curse, a big hand came from behind and grabbed the back of her neck.
She was in so much pain that she wanted to yell, but when she turned her head and saw a gloomy face, she swallowed all the cries of pain.
Five minutes later, the dean's office.
The orphanage didn't turn on many lights, and the garden outside the window looked dark, except for the warm yellow light in the office.
There are group photos on the surrounding walls, and the bookcases against the walls are filled with certificates and trophies. Most of the certificates are outdated, and most of them are meaningless small awards, such as the third prize in some school's reading competition.
But regardless of their size, they will be well displayed in frames, representing the mood of the exhibitors.
Lin Zhaoxi stood silently, her eyes swept over each certificate and the names of their winners.
She looked at it for a long time, until the master of the office put down his pen and interrupted her with a soft sound.
She hurriedly raised her head, with a acknowledging smile on her face first.
Seeing the little girl's obviously flattering smile, Dang Aiping was very disappointed.
This afternoon, she received a call from Lin Zhaoxi's homeroom teacher, thinking that there was something wrong with her ears. She was not surprised to hit someone, but skipped class, how could this be possible
Because every child here knows that the orphanage also has elementary school courses, so it is not easy for them to go to study outside.
She can say that she has worked here for more than 20 years, and she has only seen many children go to school with a high fever of 40 degrees, but she has never encountered a child who skipped school because of a trivial matter.
She was angry in her heart, but she knew that Lin Zhaoxi had a strong self-esteem, so she calmed down.
Staring into the little girl's dark eyes, she said slowly, "Today, I made a lot of calls."
Lin Zhaoxi was stunned.
Of course she knew it was wrong to skip class, and she was ready to be scolded.
But for her, no matter how terrible the following reprimand and punishment were, it was no match for her urge to find Lao Lin.
But now. There was neither scolding nor anger, the atmosphere in the office was peaceful, and the dean himself didn't look angry at all, instead she felt uneasy.
"I have called all the hospitals in the city, including the traffic police. They all said that no 12-year-old girl was sent to the hospital in a car accident today, so I felt relieved."
The lady at the desk is over 40 years old and wears a cotton shirt with black checks on a yellow background. When she spoke, she was not in a hurry. After she finished speaking, she pushed her glasses and looked over with peaceful eyes.
Even though everything was quiet, Lin Zhaoxi's mind suddenly became chaotic.
That's right, if the child didn't show up at school, the parents' first reaction was that something happened. In the past few hours, the dean's mother must have made a lot of phone calls to find a lot of people.
She wanted to be cute and say a few funny words, but the words were stuck in her throat, so she shouldn't say anything.
At this moment, the dean spoke again.
"It's fine, let's go back."
Lin Zhaoxi raised her head abruptly.
In fact, before she came here, she had already thought of something similar to saying that the school called her parents because she had a fight with her classmates today, so she dared not come back.
But when I heard such a plain and ordinary sentence. All the casual excuses were suddenly blocked in her throat, and she couldn't speak a word.
"sorry."
After thinking for a while, she stood upright, apologized seriously.
"Where did you go wrong?" asked the dean.
"Shouldn't skip class and make you worry." She honestly expressed her thoughts.
"No." The dean shook his head.
"I skipped classes and failed to cherish the hard-won learning opportunities. I am sorry for myself."
Still shaking his head.
Now, Lin Zhaoxi understands the eternal problem when a boyfriend coaxes his girlfriend - what did you do wrong
She will never get it right.
She sniffed, wondering if she should cry. But this feeling was just uncomfortable, but she couldn't cry.
There was a stalemate for a while.
Finally, the woman behind the desk sighed softly, and said to her: "It's okay, just forget it if you can't think of it, go back."
Lin Zhaoxi's legs and feet were frozen in place, she couldn't move anyhow.
At this time, a gentle voice sounded: "If you don't leave, then I will leave work."
After speaking, the mother of the dean of the Red Star Welfare Institute stood up. She picked up the bag on the hanger, and really just left the room, leaving get off work.
