On Monday, Jian Jing went to school as usual, but fortunately, her classmates who went hiking with her publicized her great achievements. Her school account gained many more followers, but God knows, she never posted a status!
"Now you've really become a celebrity in school." Zuo Xin said, "Luckily people don't know what you look like."
Jian Jing couldn't help laughing.
It’s funny to say that the classmates all knew that “Jian Jing” encountered bank robbers, and the police even issued a notice - “With the assistance of the enthusiastic mayor Jian, the three fleeing robbers were successfully captured.”
But she sat in the library and no one knew she was the person involved.
It must be said that this was all thanks to the special filming of the haunted house. Under the red-light camera, her face was very clear, and people who had watched the show might not recognize her immediately.
"It's good this way." She needs fame, but she also wants to maintain a normal life. Otherwise, if she goes out and doesn't introduce herself, people will rush up to her and ask, "Hey, who are you?" She will have a hard time.
However, passers-by could not recognize her, and people who had seen her could find her.
Zhao Xuan walked over with a book in her arms, and when she saw them, she hesitantly greeted them, "Hi."
"Hi." Jian Jing nodded at her.
Zhao Xuan seemed to have received some recognition, and walked over and sat down: "I saw the haunted house, and I think the hotel that everyone was talking about before was the one you invented."
She was really convinced.
Before, when she heard Jian Jing say that she had encountered a robber, she was a little skeptical, suspecting that she was pretending to be cool and exaggerating the incident just by looking at her from a distance, so she made a special trip to check it out.
The first news on the search engine was a clip from "A Haunted Mansion".
It was only later that she admitted that her prejudice was groundless and too one-sided. Jian Jing was not the stereotypical literary young woman, who wore flowing skirts and barefoot sneakers, and had nothing to do with melancholy.
"You're pretty good." Zhao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, "No wonder Jiayou likes you."
Jian Jing: "Uh."
Zhao Xuan admitted it, but she let go of her pride and stood up to leave.
"We are just classmates." Jian Jing said quickly.
Zhao Xuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "If even someone like you doesn't like it, I'll have even more hope." She shook her head and suddenly lost interest.
Jian Jing was surprised: "Classmate Cheng and I have similar personalities. You are both in the student union, so you should have a lot in common."
"It existed before, is it possible that it will appear suddenly?" Zhao Xuan suddenly felt very interesting and waved her hand, "Thank you, I'll leave first."
She and Jian Jing were not familiar with each other, and after a while she felt there was no need to stay, so she left with the book.
Zuo Xin whispered: "She is reading the MBA tutorial book."
Jian Jing nodded silently and opened her mouth to say something, but suddenly she saw the girls at the table in front of her whispering and pointing at a figure that was gradually approaching.
She glanced sideways and was shocked: "I'll go."
"Hey, he's so handsome!" Zuo Xin whispered to her, "He's walking towards us... Hey, is he here to see you again?"
The man walked through the rows of long wooden tables, and under the gaze of other postgraduate entrance examination candidates, he pulled out a chair with a changed expression and sat opposite Jian Jing.
"Good afternoon, Teacher Jian." He greeted with a smile.
Zuo Xin looked at him and thought, half a month ago, Cheng Jiayou was also sitting on this chair.
"Something?" Jian Jing looked at Ji Feng who was sitting opposite her, wondering why he acted like this.
Ji Feng: "Can I come to you when I have something to do?"
Jian Jing: “Heh.”
It was the first day she met him again. This police officer was very busy on weekdays, working 370 days out of 365 days a year, and the extra time was a dream.
He came to her for no reason. He went to investigate a case and catch a criminal, but he came all the way to see her. Who would believe it
Having said that, the monsoon was indeed quite strange today.
Every time she saw him, he was wearing either a uniform or neat and simple casual clothes. Although he had a good-looking face, he never took care of his appearance and had never been seen with an untidy appearance.
Today, however, he had dressed well. His clothes were neat and clean, and smelled of detergent. His hair had just been shaved, and there were a few strands of hair on his collar, but he had swept them clean, and he looked very energetic.
Zuo Xin also got angry and poked her waist madly, her eyes darting around.
Jian Jing pretended nothing happened. She knew that according to Zuo Xin's theory, this proved that Ji Feng valued her very much, but unfortunately, she didn't believe it at all.
This guy probably just woke up and cleaned up, and came here by chance.
"You're so mean to me." Ji Feng stroked his chin back and forth, "Did you shave clean?"
"What the hell are you up to?" Jian Jing said, "Don't tell me you want to ask me for 'help' again today."
Solving crimes was fun, but she probably wanted something to happen at her school.
"Don't make me sound like a plague." He laughed.
Jane stared at him.
Ji Feng laughed, seeming to find it very interesting: "Okay, I'll just say it straight."
"Please." For some reason, Jian Jing had a feeling that he was planning something bad.
But Ji Feng didn't say anything. He just shrugged and took out a jewelry box from his pocket. It was a velvet box with gorgeous colors and a square shape. It was a piece of jewelry that girls were very familiar with.
Zuo Xin let out a short, sharp breath, which was more shocking because she tried hard to hold it in. She said nothing, packed up the books in front of her at the fastest speed in her life, stuffed them all into her schoolbag, dodged to another place, and disappeared without a trace.
"Open it." Ji Feng flattened the corners of his mouth, but there was a gleam of mischief in his eyes.
Jian Jing: "Boring."
She opened the jewelry box readily.
On the bottom is a gold coin.
"A silver commemorative coin, 999 pure gold." He finally said what he meant. "You recovered their gold, and this is part of it. They gave it out as a thank you gift."
Jian Jing thought that the prize money was gone, but she was happy to have such a souvenir so she could take it out and look at it carefully.
The golden sun radiates a gentle and bright halo, and the smell of money makes people intoxicated.
"I'll take it." She immediately put the gold coins into her pocket.
Ji Feng: "... Can you be a little more modest? Writers must be short of money."
"This is what I deserve." She raised her chin, a smile of pleasure on her lips, "Catching criminals is your job, and it's the same for me."
"Look how proud you are." Ji Feng sneered and said earnestly, "Teacher Jian, pride makes people fall, and humility makes people progress."
Jian Jingli ignored him: "Anything else?"
"I originally wanted to give you something else, but since you like gold coins so much, leave this to me." He stretched out his hand and vaguely grasped something in his palm.
Jane was quiet and reached out to take it.
He quickly took it back: "It belongs to me."
"Hey!" she called. "Give it to me."
Ji Feng leaned back in his chair calmly and said with a smile, "Here you go." He waved his hand, "Come and grab it."
Jian Jing couldn't help but roll her eyes and said, "Men are really childish."
"I'll just use one hand." He tempted her, "Want to try it?"
"This is a library." Jian Jing was fooled. It would be a miracle if a beginner fighting card could beat such a professional. "Besides, it's mine, you can take it away."
Ji Feng hesitated: "Are you sure? Well, guess what it is and I'll give it to you."
Jian Jing glanced at him: "Thank you card."
He raised his eyebrows.
"A thank-you card from Officer Gao's daughter." She curled her lips slightly, "Did I guess right?"
"Tell me your reasons." He habitually adopted an interrogative tone.
For a moment, Jian Jing recalled how she was forced to retreat step by step while taking a statement when she was just reborn, but after so much time, she was no longer afraid.
Even, lack of joy.
When you have prepared everything and are called by the teacher to do a question, and you are the only one in the class who got one question right, and the teacher asks you to present it on stage, it is undoubtedly satisfying and proud.
She said: "Although I only saw a piece of paper, it is obviously a silver card. The color is very bright, it seems to be red, blue and green, and the colors are very coordinated. When I fanned it, I smelled a little crayon. It's easy to guess that it is a card made by a child.
"Given that you used Officer Gao's child to play the emotional card with me before, the answer is obvious."
Jian Jing stretched out her hand to him: "Give it to me."
"Your reasoning is not wrong, but I have to tell you that I deserve half of it." Ji Feng handed her the card and emphasized, "Remember to return it to me."
Jian Jing unfolded the card. On the card was a childlike painting, flamboyant yet abstract enough. A short letter was written in pencil.
"Uncle Ji, Sister Jian, thank you for saving my dad. I wish you good health and safety."
Although the word "jie" is missing a horizontal line, the word "xie" is written in a larger font and has pinyin, everyone who receives this greeting card will not care about it.
Jian Jing's expression softened consciously, a smile showing in her eyes.
"That's it." Ji Feng took the card and put it away carefully. "I was the one who saved Lao Gao. You just helped him along."
Jian Jing didn't argue with him. This greeting card was just as important to Ji Feng. She just laughed at him, "Uncle Ji."
Ji Feng showed an expression as if he had a toothache.
Children's words are the most heartbreaking. Jian Jing was in a good mood: "Staying up late makes people old."
"Are you urging me to leave quickly?" Ji Feng exhaled and said, "Well, it's time for me to go too. You can take your time to guess the third thing. Teacher Jian is so smart, she will definitely guess it right."
Jian Jing was stunned for a moment: "Anything else?"
He asked in return: "Do I really need to make a special trip just for these?"
Jian Jing thought: "What did you do for me?"
The gold coins and greeting cards can be given privately. If there is really no need to come to the school specifically, he must have a reason to show up in person.
"I just remembered it." Ji Feng was in a hurry to go to work. "Are you taking the postgraduate entrance examination? I'll give you extra points if I can. Okay, I'm really leaving. I'll treat you to dinner when Lao Gao is discharged from the hospital."
He waved his hand, strode away, and disappeared in a moment.
Zuo Xin moved back, eyes sparkling: "Who is this?"
"Friend." Jian Jing answered casually, opened her palms, and said impatiently, "Hurry up."
Zuo Xin was dumbfounded: "Why should I give you a commemorative coin?" She had just seen it from a distance and thought it was jewelry.
"It was given by the silversmith." She blinked, "One of the stolen gold coins."
Zuo Xin immediately threw the gossip out of her mind and exclaimed sincerely: "Wow!"
Jian Jing: "That's very wrong, right?"
Zuo Xin nodded rapidly. She had read many detective novels about treasure theft and robbery, and there were always golden treasures that the protagonists had to find. Every time she read them, she would get excited.
But they are all fake.
What is before your eyes is real, genuine gold, real treasure.
“This smells so good.”
The next day, Jian Jing learned from the counselor that the police had sent a commendation for "heroic acts" to the school.
The award certificate paper clip contains the certificate itself, and the cost of processing is 1 yuan, maybe more, but it is worth 3 credits, which can add 5 points if you take the postgraduate entrance examination.
She had to admit that Ji Feng was usually very reliable and thoughtful. This was much better than money, and it was also very cost-effective for them to spend.
Declining the school's suggestion to publicize the event, Jian Jing only agreed to let the school issue a notice and put up photos. The school did not insist, after all, in this world, it is not uncommon to see people doing things that are righteous and brave.
Jian Jing put the certificate into the drawer, but put the gold coins into the makeup box.
She feels refreshed every day after going to bed.
Of course, the weekend is over.
Jiang Yanyan made an appointment with her three days in advance and scheduled it for Saturday afternoon.
The location is a well-known coffee shop, which is well hidden and not easily photographed, but it is still a public place, so there is no need to worry about rumors. It can be said that all aspects have been taken into consideration.
Jian Jing went to the gym in the morning, wrote a manuscript for two hours after coming back, and went out to keep an appointment at two o'clock in the afternoon.
The coffee shop Jiang Yan chose was called Orange Cat Coffee, which was quiet in a busy city and had very convenient transportation. She declined the other party's suggestion to send an assistant to pick her up and drove there herself.
Jian Jing arrived ten minutes early, thinking that Jiang Yanyan arrived earlier than her.
