Early Thursday morning, Lu Shiyi rode his bike to take Su Jin to work. As soon as he arrived at the door, he found Liu Chuchang and his men standing far away from the school gate.
"Shi Yi, sister-in-law, please wait a moment." Liu Chuchang looked at the two of them, "I have something to ask sister-in-law. I just asked sister-in-law Yunfeng."
Su Jin's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. The elders of the two children were involved.
"Sister Yunfeng and you went with them to send Qi Tongen and Wang Shuqu home?" Liu Chuchang asked in front of the team members, "Did you go into their house?"
"My sister-in-law and I will send him to the door." Su Jin shook her head directly. She was unable to pull back her right hand which was tightly held by Lu Shiyi, so she had to let him do it.
"It only takes 20 minutes to get from the school to your homes. I heard from the people in the alley that your arrival time is 15 minutes longer." Liu Chuchang continued to ask questions. Someone from the Pigeon Committee was listening secretly. If Yunfeng and Su Jin's statements were slightly different, both families would be in trouble.
"My two children have a fever. On the way, I asked them if they had any antipyretics at home, but they said they were busy at home and could only take care of themselves," Su Jin told me truthfully. "My sister-in-law and I were worried that their condition would worsen if it continued, so we took them to the clinic. The doctor should be able to provide us with evidence. They received fever-reducing injections and medication at the clinic."
"Did you give your child White Rabbit candy?" Liu Chuchang frowned slightly after reading the question.
"I gave it to him. I like to eat candy when I take medicine. My two children are only 11 years old. I used my salary to buy White Rabbit candy. Can't I give it to others?" Su Jin looked suspicious. "Every month, there is a ticket for half a pound of White Rabbit candy in my salary. Most teachers are reluctant to buy it, so I will exchange it with other tickets."
Liu Chuchang had a smile in his eyes. Su Jin's explanation was so flawless that no one could frame him.
"Sister-in-law, Qi Tongen and Wang Shuqu have gone to work on the farm in Mohe with their parents and will no longer be attending school," Liu Chuchang explained. "That's why I brought the team here to check on them. Sister-in-law, please get back to work."
Liu Chuchang gave way to the road, and Lu Shiyi rode his bike with Su Jin to school.
"Captain Liu, both teachers are good, there's no reason," the team member had just spoken when Su Jin asked Lu Shiyi to turn back.
"Sister-in-law, is there anything wrong?" Liu Chuchang saw Su Jin coming over, curious about the reason why she came back.
"Captain Liu, Mr. Fan from the office asked me a strange question yesterday, and I think I should report it," Su Jin looked at Liu Chuchang seriously. "Mr. Fan asked me if an elderly person had come to the family compound. I hadn't heard about it, so Mr. Fan mentioned it, and someone from the family compound told him privately."
After he finished speaking, Liu Chuchang's face darkened, and he decided to go back and report the situation to his superiors.
"Sister-in-law, is this Fan Rusen from the second grade of junior high school?" Liu Chuchang asked, holding a pen in his right hand and writing down the name in the notebook.
"Yes!" Su Jin nodded, "I'll go to work first."
Liu Chuchang looked at the name on the notebook in deep thought. Fan Rushen was a teacher transferred from Yunnan Province. He said that his deceased wife's family lived here, and he wanted to find his lost father-in-law and mother-in-law and help his wife take care of them.
"Captain Liu, could the person we have been keeping an eye on be this..." The team member stepped forward.
The team members received news that many misleading rumors in the county were spread from the school, and Teacher Fan had early on been included in Liu Chuchang's list of suspects.
Su Jin reached out and tugged at his clothes: "My sister-in-law resigned from her position as principal of the junior high school. Is it related to this person?"
"Old Lin said he got the news that a lot of rumors are coming out of school." Lu Shiyi whispered to her, "Don't show any strangeness in the office. Wait for me to pick you up after class."
Lu Shiyi plans to take her home on Tuesday or Thursday. Except in the family compound, he will always be by her side.
Su Jin chuckled: "I'll wait for you in the office."
In just two days, both Qi and Wang were sent away. Their classmates found out yesterday. Their families thought the two teachers were very good and repeatedly told their children to respect them.
When she stepped into the office, Teacher Fan looked at her with a face full of joy. After learning about the situation of the two students, Teacher Fan secretly reported it to the pigeon committee.
Before going to work, Teacher Fan took a detour to take a look at the road that the two of them had to take, and found that Liu Chuchang was leading the team members standing on the road.
"Teacher Su, I told you, it's better not to do some good things." Teacher Fan said sarcastically.
"I was just asking about what happened that day. I haven't done anything wrong, so there's nothing to worry about." Su Jin sneered, "On the contrary, Teacher Fan, have you done too many wrong things? Are you always looking for more trouble?"
Fan Rusen stared at Su Jin for a while, holding the pen tightly in his right hand, and looked at her angrily.
Su Jin went to the classroom with her schoolbag on her back. She didn't understand why Fan Rusen Wenhe always targeted her.
During class, the corridor was in chaos and students heard the noise outside and looked out through the open classroom doors.
"Okay, everyone take out your homework books and copy the questions on the blackboard." Su Jin found that the students' attention was not in class, so she assigned homework in advance.
The students came back to their senses, looked up at the clock on the wall above the classroom podium and said, "Teacher, please continue teaching. There are still 15 minutes before the get out of class ends."
"Since everyone's attention is limited, let's copy and do the exercises first." Su Jin looked at the students. "Everyone needs to concentrate to learn well. If you can't concentrate, try doing something else. Efficiency is the most important thing."
The students remembered what Su Jin said and benefited from it later, and their admiration for Su Jin increased further.
When Su Jin turned around to copy the questions, Liu Chuchang appeared at the front door of the classroom.
"Teacher Su, I'm looking for two classmates in our class, Fan Yin and Fan Zhinan. You two come out." The two boys stood up and went to the front door of the classroom with nervous expressions.
"Captain Liu, the two children are fine. Please send them back." Su Jin looked at Liu Chuchang calmly, "After all, children also need reputation."
"Okay!" Liu Chuchang agreed.
Brothers Fan Yin and Fan Zhinan looked at Su Jin with gratitude, and when they reached the door, they turned around and bowed to her.
"Teacher Su, thank you for speaking up for us." Fan Yin knew that his uncle Fan Rushen was acting strangely, and even his grandfather had hinted that this was an unusually high-stakes gamble.
Su Jin noticed that the two of them looked normal, and lamented that everyone's children started to interfere in family affairs at a young age.
After the two left, the classmate started copying questions again, not taking the previous incident to heart.
It was not until noon when school was over and the two boys had not returned that the students began to murmur. Then they remembered that Su Jin had told them not to spread rumors outside and to wait until the news was confirmed before discussing it.
After class, Su Jin returned to the office and began to mark the homework handed in in the morning. She copied down the students' wrong questions and summarized them to prepare the final exam paper.
