Chapter 760: Afraid of Discovering Something
He only picks on weaklings like Cheng Lin and Duan Wenguang.
He knew that Cheng Lin and Duan Wenguang were both from rural families and had no support. Even if they suffered losses, they could only endure it silently.
Wu Qiuyun quickly reached out and tried to pull up the woman who was kneeling on the ground.
"You get up first. Duan Wenguang's matter..." She was stuck for a moment.
She didn't know how to tell the woman in front of her that she was just an ordinary teacher and didn't have much power.
She didn't even know how to start the conversation. Even the police were helpless in Duan Wenguang's case.
The woman's simple eyes made Wu Qiuyun feel uncomfortable in his chest.
They were willing to kneel down to her for the sake of their son.
Moreover, it should not be just her who knelt down.
"Auntie, please get up first and talk later." Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward, grabbed Duan Wenguang's mother's arm, and pulled her up from the ground.
Ji Yuanyuan was very strong, and the woman was pulled up. She looked at Ji Yuanyuan in confusion.
Duan Wenguang's father was still being held by two security guards. Wu Qiuyun looked at the two security guards and said, "Let him go!"
Several security guards looked at each other, and one of them said in embarrassment: "Teacher Wu, please don't make things difficult for us. We are just a few security guards. We have to do whatever the leader says. There are so many people in the second cafeteria. If the students see us..."
Wu Qiuyun frowned and wanted to say something, but Ji Yuanyuan stepped forward in time: "Okay, we won't embarrass you, and you don't have to embarrass them either, and understand each other. You return the banner to them, and we promise that they won't cause trouble again later."
The security guards naturally realized that there was a loophole in Ji Yuanyuan's words.
There will be no more trouble later, not that there will be no more trouble in the future.
But even if the security guard heard it, he could only take advantage of the situation to back off.
If there is a conflict with the teachers at school, they are the ones who will be punished.
"Get out of here as soon as possible."
The security guard let go of Duan Wenguang's father and the banner.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Duan Wenguang's father and reminded him, "Uncle, please put away the banner. It's useless to hang it here."
Once the school leaders found out, they would send security guards to drive them away. After one or two times, they couldn't even get into the school.
Moreover, even if they could get in, what could the students and teachers do when they saw their banners?
After a few days of discussion and gossip, when the heat dies down, they may not even look at the banner again.
This is human nature.
Duan Wenguang's father quickly put away the banner.
Wu Qiuyun asked in a low voice: "Have you eaten?"
Duan Wenguang's father shook his head silently.
Wu Qiuyun sighed: "Let's go eat first."
Wu Qiuyun had difficulty moving, so Cao Xiaorui jogged back to the laboratory and pushed her bicycle over.
Wu Qiuyun was sitting on a bicycle and being pushed by Cao Xiaorui.
Several people took Duan Wenguang's parents to a small restaurant behind the school.
It was dinner time, so there were quite a lot of people in the restaurant.
With so many people coming and going, it's inconvenient to say anything.
Wu Qiuyun ordered three dishes for the couple, "Let's talk about it after we finish eating. Let's eat first."
The couple seemed to be hesitant to talk. When the food came, they took a few bites and then put down their chopsticks.
It's normal for his son to not be able to eat after something like this happened to him.
But seeing the two people's haggard appearance, Wu Qiuyun subconsciously pushed the plate in front of them: "Eat more, if it's not enough, order more."
Mother Duan shook her head and said, "I can't eat anymore."
Mr. Duan rubbed his hands helplessly and looked at Wu Qiuyun: "You are a teacher at the medical school. Do you know our Xiaoguang?"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Duan looked at Wu Qiuyun with an earnest look.
Wu Qiuyun nodded without any hesitation: "Although he is not my student, he is very good. I often hear his name, so I know him."
Mr. and Mrs. Duan's eyes suddenly turned red.
"Our Xiaoguang is very capable. He is the first college student in the village, and he is from a B university. He is the pride of our village. His uncles and aunts all hope that he will have a bright future. It was they who raised the tuition for his college."
As Cao Xiaorui listened to what the two people said, her eyes became a little red.
She raised her hand and wiped the corners of her eyes.
"Our Xiaoguang is a very capable boy who can endure hardships. It is impossible for him to commit suicide because of too much pressure from studying as they said. Something must have happened." Father Duan pursed his lips and said, "It's all my fault. I signed the document without thinking the day before yesterday. They have already burned Xiaoguang..."
Wu Qiuyun was a little surprised: "Student Duan Wenguang's body is already..."
Mother Duan sobbed quietly, and Father Duan nodded: "We arrived in the early morning of the day Xiaoguang had the accident. We heard that Xiaoguang had the accident, so we took an eight-hour bus ride to get here. I didn't sleep all night, and my brain was not working properly. They said that Xiaoguang fell from a great height and his body was not even good to look at. They urged us to cremate him as soon as possible and take Xiaoguang back for burial. I..."
As he was speaking, Mr. Duan choked up and couldn't continue.
Wu Qiuyun pulled a tissue off the table and handed it to Mr. Duan.
Mr. Duan stretched out his rough and cracked hands to take the tissue, and wiped the turbid tears from the corners of his eyes.
"I don't know what was wrong with my brain at that time, it just wouldn't listen to me, and I cremated Xiaoguang in the early morning. Until noon the day before yesterday, when I was about to get on the train, I suddenly came to my senses. Xiaoguang was such a hard-working child, how could he be so depressed as to commit suicide?" Mr. Duan clenched his fists in regret, and the blue veins on the back of his hands were clearly visible.
Mother Duan excitedly reached out and grabbed Wu Qiuyun's hand: "There must be something wrong here. They have been urging us to cremate Xiaoguang. They must be afraid that we will find out something. You are Xiaoguang's teacher, you must know that Xiaoguang would not commit suicide for no reason, right?"
Wu Qiuyun looked at the hands holding hers, and for a moment, she didn't know how to answer this question.
If she answered yes, Duan Wenguang's parents would be even more certain that there was something fishy about Duan Wenguang's death, and they would definitely continue to investigate.
But the current situation is that the police could not find any evidence at all, and Duan Wenguang’s death seemed to be just suicide.
So, what should Duan Wenguang’s parents do with the rest of their lives?
They will always be filled with regret, regretting why they agreed to cremate Duan Wenguang's body.
They regret why they are unable to seek justice and truth for Duan Wenguang.
If we tell Duan Wenguang's parents now that Duan Wenguang did commit suicide, then Duan Wenguang's parents may accept this fact and live a better life for the rest of their lives.
But, did this matter really just pass like this?
Just like Cheng Lin at the beginning, he died in obscurity.
