Chapter 220 The Coal Thief



So they decided that they must find this person, but how?

One of the students came up with an idea.

"We just need to sit back and wait. If he only does it once, we can pretend nothing happened. But if he comes again and tries to steal, we will absolutely not tolerate him."

The squad leader also agreed, so several people began to divide the work and guard it, hiding in a small corner. Anyway, you squat for half an hour, and I squat for half an hour. Because it was next to the stove, it was not too cold, and there were no mosquitoes or the like, so this half an hour was not too difficult to endure.

They waited for several days but still didn't find anyone.

"I'll guard the last half hour."

The squad leader felt that it was not possible to continue guarding like this. It seemed that the man would not come.

Several other students also turned over a few more pieces of evidence. At first, they were still full of passion and excitement, but now, they all wanted to lie on their beds. Squatting was not as comfortable as lying down. Such a small place was enough to cramp them.

"Or you can stop guarding it."

Seeing that the monitor was still on guard, a classmate advised him, "It's useless to keep on guarding. It's better not to guard at all."

"No, I have to keep guarding."

The squad leader was a stubborn man. He said it was his last chance to guard the place, so he would guard it. He would be unwilling to not do so.

Seeing that they couldn't persuade the squad leader, the others went back to the dormitory. It would only take half an hour anyway, and the squad leader would come back by himself after he finished his duty.

The squad leader walked to the place where people could hide and stuffed his entire body in.

He was bored and snapped his fingers, not knowing what he was thinking about, until he heard a sound next to his ear. He couldn't help but hum, this is a good brother, how could he leave a good brother here alone and lonely.

Just as he was about to come out, he found a strange student holding a snakeskin bag and putting charcoal into the bag.

Good, the squad leader clenched his fingers, he finally waited for this little thief.

When the student had filled most of the bag and felt that it was enough and was about to leave, the class worker suddenly rushed out from the side, which scared the boy so much that he dropped the bag and ran away.

And can the class monitor let him get away like this?

After waiting for so many days and going through so much trouble, he finally caught the thief. How could he let him go?

The boy ran fast, but the class monitor was not slow either. Besides, this was a school, and there were people everywhere. Where could he run to? Could he even fly?

They say you can run away from the monk but you can’t run away from the temple.

Since he is a student in the school, he can't run away, and he has already memorized his face. Even if he really ran away, wouldn't he look for him in every class?

The boy was still running forward desperately and almost bumped into a girl.

The girl staggered several times before finally standing up straight. Fortunately, she did not fall to the ground.

"Hey, Guan Peng, why are you running?"

The girl was so angry that she stomped her foot at the boy who was running like a rabbit in front of her, and didn't even say sorry. Is that acceptable?

"Classmate, do you know him?"

At this time, the class monitor stopped chasing the person. He had just bumped into a few students, so he had already lost sight of the person. But he was not worried because he knew him.

Run, run as much as you want.

He'll find it soon enough anyway.

"You mean him?"

The girl patted the corner of her clothes and said, "He's from the class next to ours, Guan Peng, Class 1, Grade 2. What's wrong? What do you want to see him about?"

"It's okay, thank you."

The monitor said to the girl with a smile, that smile was like sunshine, which made the girl blush.

The children at this time.

The squad leader staggered back to his dormitory first. He didn't need to worry about the stove anymore. He was caught red-handed. Would he dare to come and steal again?

After he returned to the dormitory, he told the other people in the dormitory about this matter.

When those students heard that the coal thief had been found, they were eager to go to the high school class to catch the thief.

"Let's discuss this with Teacher Zhang first."

The squad leader felt it was not a good idea to just let it go.

Although Guan Peng stole charcoal, if it became known to everyone, his life would be ruined. Besides, Class 1 is considered a top class. What if something happens to his family?

When the other students heard this, they also agreed and stopped arguing with the class monitor. Instead, they went to find their teacher Zhang and let him decide how to deal with the matter.

The class monitor immediately went to find Teacher Zhang. Teacher Zhang frowned when he heard this, but later he was very pleased with the class monitor's actions and did not tell anyone about it.

"You've done a lot this time. We can't ruin a student's future just because of half a bag of charcoal without asking the reason. Besides, those who can enter the top class are not bad students."

There are no bad kids nowadays. They have not been exposed to society and have not experienced the complexity of human nature. Their minds are still simple. That student really didn't do anything harmful to others. It was just half a bag of charcoal.

You really don't have to do that.

"Don't worry about this matter for now. Let the teacher find him and find out the situation first."

Teacher Zhang had never thought of revealing this matter, but now that he knew who it was, he had to ask.

Not knowing and knowing are two different things. Even if he has decided not to pursue the matter, he still needs to know the reasons why he should know.

Just like that, Teacher Zhang returned to his dormitory and asked someone to call Guan Peng from Class 1, Grade 2 over.

Guan Peng seemed to know what Teacher Zhang wanted to talk to him about. His face was pale, without even a trace of blood.

"Do you know why I'm looking for you?"

Teacher Zhang asked Guan Peng.

Guan Peng nodded, then lowered his head and didn't dare to speak.

"You don't have to be afraid."

Instead of blaming him, Teacher Zhang was patient and kind in comforting him.

"We've studied this matter and won't pursue you. Of course, we won't tell anyone else either."

Guan Peng's body trembled slightly, and his eyes turned red.

"But you have to tell the teacher why you want to take the charcoal. It's not worth anything. If your family is really in trouble, you can tell the teacher. Although the teacher is not your homeroom teacher, he is still a teacher at the school. If he can help you, he will definitely help you."

It’s too trivial to mention, but if something really happens, we really can’t just stand by and watch someone die.

"Teacher, I'm sorry."

Guan Peng lowered his head more and more, feeling very ashamed. He was still very ashamed.
