Perhaps Teacher Liu is too kind. Even though she has spent half her life in poverty, she always has a warm heart in the small village. There are many almost inhuman crimes in Wanghai, but more than that, she still believes in the innate simplicity and enthusiasm of this land.
She still believes that there are no pure, cold-blooded, profit-oriented evil people in this world.
Moreover, Teacher Liu believed that the man who was full of enthusiasm, provided free help to the children of Hope Primary School, and worked hard to make dinner was sincere, so she looked for Wang Kai, hoping that he would turn back.
Unfortunately, the conscience of an intellectual mistakenly portrayed an incorrigible villain as a prodigal son.
This brought her fatal disaster.
Another car accident, carefully planned and flawless, buried a passionate heart that was selflessly dedicated to the future. However, there was still a child who believed in this teacher and was looking forward to putting an end to his family tragedy, and then start moving forward and starting a new life.
Later, Ji Yanghai heard that Teacher Liu had passed away. Because the Hope Primary School could no longer continue, she left this still poor little village and went to the provincial capital to continue her teaching career in a key high school with better treatment.
It was obvious that they were separated forever, but in the children's ears, it became a promotion. No one knew whether it was a coincidence or a deliberate conspiracy. In short, Ji Yanghai seemed to be abandoned by everything in the world at the same time. Even Wang Kai did not kill him for various considerations.
Ji Yanghai became a man trapped in time. He never walked out of the mud ditch where his parents' bodies lay.
He hated the murderer, but he hated Teacher Liu even more for making a promise to him and then walking away.
After all, what did Teacher Liu mean to him? She was the sun. With her, Ji Yanghai learned to look at the world, his family, and his parents in a healthy way. She even caused conflicts with his family because of her kindness.
But the sun suddenly went out.
......
Later, on a whim, he decided he couldn't hold onto the past until his death, so Ji Yanghai returned to his hometown, visited his parents' graves, met with his impoverished relatives, and then walked around the old house, in the room where his teacher had taught. Things had changed, and the old tables and chairs had long since corroded and been replaced with new ones, which were no longer interesting.
Afterwards, he went to the Hope Primary School in Shangpo Village. He just looked at it from a distance and did not go in. After all, this place had no special meaning to him.
The primary school has no high-rise buildings, it is actually just a courtyard house. For some reason, it has never been reopened and the land and courtyard have been abandoned. From a distance, it looks clean and tidy, probably because it was cleaned by the villagers.
He came here with thoughts of Teacher Liu, so of course she couldn't be there. Later, Ji Yanghai started to check with local public institutions to find out which school Teacher Liu went to teach in Wanghai City, but he didn't find out. However, he got the contact information of her family.
Ji Yanghai thought he had finally found a clue and called.
In fact, after so many years, he no longer had any resentment in his heart. He just wanted an explanation. After all, he also felt confused. Deep down, Ji Yanghai did not think that Teacher Liu was such an irresponsible person. Even if he really felt that it was dangerous, troublesome, or a burden, he would not just leave and could not be contacted, as if he had disappeared from the world as if he was avoiding the plague.
With this thought in mind, he chatted with the person on the other end of the phone for a while. The person who answered the phone was Teacher Liu's father. The old man told him that in addition to Teacher Liu's former student, there were other people who would call to express their condolences.
The old man was very pleased to know that Ji Yanghai was also her student, but he was surprised when he heard that Ji Yanghai wanted to meet with Teacher Liu.
Because Teacher Liu has passed away for many years.
She died in a car accident.
The same way Ji Yanghai's parents died. Teacher Liu wasn't the Ji couple. Back then, she was highly respected and a well-known teacher in the town and the village. Some restaurants would even refuse to charge her for meals. Her "accidental death" left countless people tossing and turning, unable to sleep, and denouncing the injustice of heaven and the short lifespan of good people.
I don’t even know how many people attended her funeral and expressed their condolences.
How did such a big thing reach his ears and turn into Teacher Liu being promoted and going to teach at a key university?
......
......
Second life, now.
February 2015.
The deep winter in Wanghai is as lifeless as ever. Students are about to have their last exam of the first half of the school year. As the New Year approaches, the festive atmosphere on the streets becomes stronger. In most cases, people on the roadside are leisurely and comfortable.
It was only in those corners that people rarely noticed, with venues and shops closed, that some people were taken away in their sleep. At first, this wasn't surprising, until some drunks, wanting to have a drink at their usual shops at night, found the doors closed. Some prostitutes seeking pleasure scoured the streets and alleys, unable to find a single open massage or foot massage parlor. Even those shops with signs advertising blind massage and emitting the aroma of traditional Chinese medicine were not spared.
After failing to get through to an "old acquaintance", no matter how good his temper was, he could only shake his head helplessly, cursing the heavens and the earth, cursing the world for not even giving people a bit of warmth when it was almost the New Year.
Not many people noticed that a silent storm swept across the entire Wanghai. It was unknown how many people would not be able to survive the peaceful years of the past 15 years, whether they were above or below.
