Chapter 53 "Students are trapped in the swamp of tutor bullying, and the academic road is full of thorns?"
"Students are trapped in the swamp of tutor bullying, and the academic road is full of thorns?"
"Tutors' power is arbitrary: students are exploited, where is the academic dignity?"
"Shocked! A highly respected professor of Capital Medical University actually did such an ugly thing!"
"Take off the kind mask and you will see how many people have been deceived by the ugly face."
…
The eye-catching red letters and explosive title quickly attracted the attention of countless people. As the number of clicks continued to rise, the hot search terms soared, becoming a hit.
The cause was that many students from Capital Medical University came out to expose that their seemingly amiable mentors were actually the most fond of exploiting students, embezzling grants from higher authorities, snatching students' papers... every single one of these was outrageous.
Pages of shocking chat records, videos and photos were posted there, instantly sparking heated discussions among countless people.
"Is this true? This is too scary. I have heard of that academician's name, but I didn't expect him to be this kind of person."
"Really? My cousin's daughter followed that tutor at the time. She was tortured so hard over the years that she became so skinny. She was delayed for two years. How many two years are there in a lifetime? My cousin was so angry that he wanted to chop him up, but he finally resolved the matter by giving him a gift."
"Wq, such a beast in human form, why didn't you report him at the time and waited for so long?"
"How can you be so naive? Reporting is useless these days. He will find out in a minute and then use delayed graduation to kill you. These students either really can't survive or have finally escaped from his clutches, otherwise they wouldn't dare to do this. Believe it or not, the school will send someone to suppress such a scandal immediately."
Xu Luxi sat in front of the hospital bed, silently flipping through the trending searches on Weibo with her phone, and countless posts of condemnation and criticism entered her eyes, making her already aching head ache even more.
She rubbed her temples with a gloomy face. She was not surprised at all that the hot search entry with Capital Medical University had its "explosive" word deleted and quickly dropped down, directly falling out of the hot search list.
A hoarse laugh escaped from her throat, her dark long hair was scattered messily on her shoulders, and her white fingertips were ticking and sending messages rapidly. The dim light from the phone shone on her pale face, and her dead amber eyes were reflected even more strangely.
"Xu Luxi." Gu Ao Yu opened his eyes slightly and saw Xu Luxi with her head lowered. Her scattered black silk covered half of her face. Her whole body exuded a strong despair and deathly silence.
Her heart skipped a beat and she called Xu Luxi's name hoarsely, struggling to get up.
The girl looked up in surprise, and a slightly cool hand gently supported her arm and pushed her back.
"The doctor said that you are seriously injured. You need to rest for a week and can't move around." Xu Luxi reached out and tucked the hair that was stuck to Gu Ao Yu's face behind his ears, his voice as gentle as ever.
"Xu Luxi, I..." Gu Ao Yu explained anxiously, and pulled the wound in excitement. He frowned and took a breath of cold air, and his face turned paler.
She pressed her slender fingertips on Gu Ao Yu's dry mouth, stopping her from saying next.
"Okay, I've learned the details from the police. Don't worry, the drug dealers who hurt you have been arrested by the police, not a single one left. Based on the recordings in your phone, we traced xxx back to him, who had spent money there and was also arrested. As for his father, my mentor, I have my own way to deal with him. Leave the follow-up matters to me, don't worry."
A soft voice whispered everything that Gu Ao Yu was concerned about. Seeing that Xu Luxi's hand on her arm remained motionless, Gu Ao Yu raised his head with difficulty and leaned over to rub the back of her hand.
"Okay, I got it. I have you by my side in everything. How can I be worried?" Gu Ao Yu paused, blinking his big dark eyes, clearly reflecting Xu Luxi's gloomy face.
"Are you angry then?"
Xu Luxi's amber pupils trembled. She didn't say anything. She reached out and rubbed her head, coaxing softly:
"We'll talk about what happens next later. Go to sleep."
Gu Ao Yu blinked, listened to Xu Luxi's usual gentle tone, nodded obediently, closed his eyes and fell asleep again.
I'm glad you're not angry. When she opened her eyes just now, she thought Xu Luxi had entered into the state of self-harm again because he didn't do well in the exam. He looked so gloomy and a little scary.
If that were the case, she didn't know how to calm her down.
Looking at Gu Ao Yu's obedient sleeping face, Xu Luxi slowly reached out her hand and gently touched Gu Ao Yu's cheek. The slightly warm temperature penetrated into her limbs through her fingertips.
With a slight creaking sound, the ice slowly cracked. Boom, boom, boom, from weak to strong, gradually becoming more powerful. Like a baby breathing air for the first time, she burst into tears.
Xu Luxi bit her lips tightly, breathing heavily, hot tears kept pouring out of her eyes, and the mist made everything blurry. Xu Luxi wiped away her tears awkwardly, but as soon as she wiped away one, new tears came out again, and she couldn't wipe them all away.
Drops of blood oozed from between her white teeth and flowed into her mouth. The unpleasant smell of rust instantly filled the air, and she swallowed it, crying silently for a long time.
The boy in front of her was warm, clean, and alive, completely different from the one she saw the last time that night.
After crying for an unknown amount of time, the tears finally stopped. She reached out and gently pinched Gu Ao Yu's cheek. It was hazy and she couldn't see the emotion in her eyes.
Ao Yu is so well behaved and obedient only at times like this.
It would be great if it could always be like this.
"Capital Medical University Comprehensive Building... There are the latest revelations about Professor xxx, first come first served."
Text messages without signatures or addresses inexplicably appeared in the hands of reporters from major media outlets.
Countless reporters holding cameras and microphones blocked the president of the Medical University at the entrance of the building.
They swarmed over him, almost thrusting the microphone into his mouth.
"Principal Liu, what do you want to say about the new scandal that broke out in the school today?"
“Is what happened to Professor xxx true?”
"Did the school withdraw this morning's trending search?"
The chattering sound annoyed the principal. He coughed heavily, took the microphone and said righteously:
"Our school attaches great importance to today's incident and has set up a special investigation team immediately to conduct a comprehensive and in-depth investigation. We will give the public a satisfactory answer. The situation is uncertain now, so please do not disturb the normal teaching activities of our teachers and students."
The serious words immediately silenced the crowd. They looked at each other and wanted to ask something, but a reporter suddenly pointed up and screamed:
"Look, there seems to be someone there?"
What? Under the shocked gazes of countless people, Xu Luxi stood on the rooftop of the highest building. The rooftop was empty and there was no protection at all.
The weak and helpless girl seemed to be aware of everyone's gazes. She smiled faintly, took another step forward, and under the cardiac arrest gazes of everyone, sat on the ground only a dozen centimeters away from the edge, swinging her legs out of boredom.
"Ahhh, call the police, call the police immediately. Call her counselor and roommates." A sharp explosion came from the principal's mouth, and he almost crawled up the stairs.
A crowd of people timidly opened the door and approached Xu Luxi cautiously. The principal walked in front, sweating profusely, under the gaze of many cameras.
"Student, please listen to me..."
"Don't come over." Xu Luxi stood up suddenly, with the sharp blade in her hand facing the principal, and she took a step back uncontrollably.
"No, no. Everyone step back." The principal turned around and roared, then smiled ingratiatingly at Xu Luxi.
A shrill sirens rang in Xu Luxi's ears. A fire truck and many firefighters came down from the building. Half of them built a large buffer zone downstairs, and the other half rushed upstairs.
"Student, if you have anything to say, let's sit down and discuss it. Why do you have to do something so dangerous? Think about your parents and your teachers."
As if a key word had been triggered, tears silently slid down her cheeks. Her eyes were red, gray and lifeless. She pointed the blade at her neck and said in a hoarse voice:
"I don't have a father, and my mother remarried a long time ago. I study day and night just to finish college and have a peaceful life in the future. Why can't you even give me this simple request?"
"xxx, you are so heartless that you ask me to help you with chores and organize data day and night. If I don't answer the phone call, I will be warned of delayed graduation. What did I do wrong? Why did you choose me?"
Her messy black hair was flying wildly, her face was covered with tears, and her body was shaking uncontrollably. A dazzling silver light flashed by, and she ruthlessly picked up the knife and slashed at her left arm, blood splattering and dripping onto the ground.
She lowered her eyes to look at her arm, brought it to her mouth and licked it. Bright red blood dripped wetly from the corner of her mouth. Xu Luxi smiled faintly at them.
Everyone shuddered and couldn't help but look at her arm. There were dense scars, new and old, intertwined. Several red scars were turned outward, covered with a thin layer of scabs, and it was obvious that they were scratched just a few days ago.
"I have nothing left. I can't even graduate. What's the point of me living in this world? Let me die. When I go to the underworld, as a ghost, I will dig out his heart and pull out his intestines, so that he will never be reborn."
Amidst the shrill cries, the girl was wearing a white coat, her long hair sticky to her face, intertwined with the blood on her mouth, her pupils were lifeless, yet revealed a strange gaze, almost no different from a female ghost.
Everyone got goosebumps as she stared at them so quietly. She took another step back, only one step away from the edge.
"My dear student, I promise you in front of all the media now, on the honor of the principal, that if the situation is true, the school will punish you severely. If you fail to do so, I, as the principal, will not do it. My student, please don't do stupid things at such a young age."
Despite everyone's earnest advice, Xu Luxi ignored them and turned around to look down at the sky more than ten meters high. The people and cars on the ground turned into small black dots, and the streets looked like thick crisscrossing lines.
Suddenly, he felt dizzy. His heart was pounding and his stomach was churning. Xu Luxi was confused. Was this how Ao Yu felt when he jumped down from a high place?
Beside her, the firefighter approached her cautiously, his amber eyes flickered strangely for a moment, and then went out.
She gave up the idea of jumping down to accompany her. It was too high, and if she went down, Ao Yu would have no one to take care of her.
The slender girl swayed for a few times, and as everyone watched with bated breath, she fell backwards and fainted.
