This morning, I walked into school as usual, but unexpectedly found my head teacher standing at the door of the teachers' office, brows furrowed, shouting with a little anger.

"I have just asked Xiao Zhang, and he said that one of your teachers asked him to leave work early. When I came to school early in the morning, I saw the door was open and there was no one inside. Who was responsible for locking the door yesterday? What happened?" The head teacher's voice echoed in the corridor, attracting the attention of many teachers around.

At this time, Teacher Li hurried over and tried to calm the head teacher's anger: "Head teacher, please don't worry. I asked Xiao Zhang to go back first yesterday. After all, he had completed his work for the day. As for locking the door, the principal said before that it was a shift job. I don't think Xiao Zhang should be responsible for it every day."

The head teacher listened to Teacher Li's explanation, but his brows did not relax: "It's okay for you to let Xiao Zhang go off work first, but have you arranged for someone else to lock the door?"

Teacher Li smiled awkwardly: "This was notified by Teacher Wu, and the names of the people on duty are also written on our shift schedule on the wall. You only need to look at the schedule to know."

After hearing this, the head teacher turned to Teacher Wu and asked, "Teacher Wu, who did you tell to lock the door last yesterday?"

Teacher Wu looked innocent: "I have informed him. Isn't Teacher Wang here? Head teacher, please ask Teacher Wang if I have informed him."

The head teacher immediately turned to me and asked, "Teacher Wang, were you on duty yesterday? Did Teacher Wu notify you?"

I looked confused. "I don't know. Teacher Wu did tell me about the shift arrangement yesterday, but he didn't say much, so I didn't pay much attention to it. I really didn't know that I was responsible for locking the door yesterday."

Teacher Wu looked at me with a cold face and said, "Hey, Teacher Wang, you are wrong. When I talked about this in the office yesterday, Teacher Li and Teacher Wen were there, and they heard it."

At this time, Teacher Li and Teacher Wen also came over and echoed Teacher Wu's words: "Yes, yes, Teacher Wu did mention this shift arrangement yesterday. We also took a look at the shift schedule on the wall. The person on duty yesterday was indeed Teacher Wang."

The head teacher frowned and asked seriously, "Teacher Wang, what happened? Did we inform you yesterday?"

I looked a little uneasy at this point, and hesitated for a while before answering: "Teacher Wu did mention the shift arrangement to me yesterday, but it wasn't a formal notification. He just mentioned to me that there was a shift arrangement for locking the door, and then I didn't pay much attention to it. I didn't know that I was the one who locked the door yesterday."

Teacher Wu, who was standing at the side, interrupted and said, "Hey, Teacher Wang, how can we formally notify you? I told you yesterday, but you didn't take it seriously. When I left work yesterday, I told you that if you don't leave, Teacher Wang, I will lock the door. Is this what I said yesterday? If that doesn't work, you can go to our corridor and check our duty roster. I saw it when I passed by, and your name was on it. This is not formal. What else can make it formal?"

After hearing this, the head teacher became even angrier and raised his voice a few degrees: "Teacher Wang, you are too irresponsible! As a member of the school, each of us has the responsibility to ensure the safety of the school. If something is lost here at night due to your negligence, the consequences will be disastrous. How can you be so careless about this matter?"

I was speechless when asked. Yesterday, Teacher Wu did talk about the scheduling and locking of the door, and he also said that if I didn't leave, I would have to wait for the door to be locked. I thought he was deliberately making fun of me yesterday, but I never thought he was setting a trap for me.

Just when I was still feeling upset about what happened yesterday, Teacher Wu seemed to think that the situation was not serious enough and continued to add fuel to the fire. He pretended to be surprised and said, "Oh, yes, head teacher, let's check if there is anything missing. The door has been open all night."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the fat teacher in front of him screaming: "Oh, I lost an apple."

At this time, Teacher Wen couldn't bear to listen any more: "Stop it now, didn't you eat the last apple yesterday? You also told us that you wanted to lose weight and would not eat regular meals in the future, only eat one apple a day. But yesterday, you ate all the apples you prepared for a week in one day, and you were still looking for the last one. I saw that you had been rummaging around for a long time yesterday. Not a single apple in your bag was lost, they were all in your stomach. How can you lose weight like this?"

The fat teacher blushed at what Teacher Wen said, but he didn't seem to be willing to give up. He still said stubbornly, "Humph, Teacher Wen, don't look down on me. From today on, I will only eat one apple a day."

At this moment, Teacher Wu suddenly screamed, "Hey, where is my laptop?" This sudden voice startled me. Is he really going to frame me? He dug such a big trap for me yesterday, and he is going to do this again today?

I nervously observed Teacher Wu's expression, and saw him anxiously saying, "My laptop cost more than 10,000 yuan. If my laptop is lost, will the school compensate me? Will it be the school or the person responsible?"

The head teacher said helplessly: "This depends on our principal. It's useless for you to ask me, Teacher Wu."

After hearing what the head teacher said, Teacher Wu seemed unsatisfied. He turned his gaze to me again, with a half-smile on his face and a bit of teasing in his tone: "Teacher Wang, don't be afraid. If it is really lost, I will ask the principal to compensate. Even if the principal really asks you to be responsible, it doesn't matter. You teach so many courses here, and the tuition fees are so considerable. More than 10,000 yuan is just a drop in the bucket for you. But, if a few computers are really lost in the school, it will be troublesome, right, Teacher Wang?"

His words were full of provocation and hints, as if telling me that everything he did just now was intentional, just to test my reaction. I was annoyed, but I had to suppress my anger, not wanting to lose my composure in front of everyone.

At this time, he turned to the other teachers and asked with pretended concern: "Teacher Li, Teacher Wen, are your computers still there?"

Other teachers said that the computer was still there. When I heard that, the worry in my heart finally fell a little. I was secretly glad that they had not discussed in advance to deal with me together on this matter.

Teacher Wu seemed to have felt that he had had enough fun and suddenly let out a hearty laugh. His laughter revealed a lot of pride: "Oh, look at my memory, my computer was right at my feet, and I forgot about it. I'm really getting old and I always forget things. I'm sorry, Teacher Wang, you must have been scared just now." He patted his head as he spoke, as if he was really annoyed by his forgetfulness.

However, I saw a hint of cunning and complacency in his eyes. I cursed in my heart: "Teacher Wu, you are so irritating. You did this on purpose to embarrass me, right? Unfortunately, I can't do anything to you." Although I thought so in my heart, I still remained calm and smiled on the surface, not wanting him to see my true emotions.

At this time, Xiao Zhang ran over breathlessly, with a trace of tension and concern on his face. When he saw the head teacher, Mr. Wu, he quickly said, "Hey, head teacher, you are here, did you lose anything?

I think I should be the one to lock the door from now on. I’m used to being the last one to leave.

The principal asked me this just now, thinking I had some objection to locking the door.

I know the teachers are taking care of me, but I'm used to being locked up. Besides, I'm alone and have nothing to do if I go home early."

Teacher Li, who was standing next to him, also interrupted and said, "Hey, look at how good at talking and sensible Xiao Zhang is. Xiao Zhang, don't think too much. We all really want you to go home and rest early. But since you are willing to continue locking the door and the principal agrees, then this task will still be left to you in the future."

Xiao Zhang heard this and waved his hands quickly: "Teacher Li, you are too kind. I just think everyone works very hard, so it's okay for me to do more. Since the head teacher and the principal trust me, I will definitely continue to do a good job of locking the door."

The head teacher nodded and said to everyone, "Okay, each room just needs to check if there is anything missing and then go about doing what needs to be done."

After the head teacher finished speaking, all the teachers dispersed and returned to their classrooms to prepare for class. I stood there, but my heart was filled with indescribable emotions. Today's incident was obviously a carefully planned drama. They deliberately created chaos to embarrass me.

I couldn't help but sigh that these people are really experienced in the workplace. But I also learned a lesson from this: at work, you must stay vigilant and don't let them lead you by the nose.

The morning class finally came to an end. As I was packing up the laptop on the table and preparing to leave the classroom, the two lively students from yesterday came over again and invited me to have lunch together.

I thought about it and felt that this was a good opportunity to communicate with them and ask them if they knew anything about the remedial classes in the student dormitories that the principal mentioned yesterday. So I smiled and accepted their invitation.

"Where are we going to eat today?" I asked, looking forward to their answer.

The students from Province H immediately responded excitedly: "Come with me today. I know a newly opened restaurant that is offering a 50% discount today!"

When I heard that, I immediately became excited. It's a good idea to take advantage of a good deal. I smiled and responded, "Okay, let's go try this new restaurant together!"

So the three of us happily walked out of the school gate and headed towards the newly opened small restaurant. Along the way, we chatted and shared each other's daily lives, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

Soon after, we came to this small restaurant. It was a noodle shop, mainly selling ramen. But it was not Lanzhou ramen, just the most ordinary ramen.

When we walked into the store, the first thing that caught our eyes was a piece of red paper on the wall, which read "50% off for the opening of ramen, 5 yuan a bowl." I thought to myself, this is really cheap, only 5 yuan for a bowl of ramen, and judging by the portion, it will definitely fill you up.

So the three of us shouted in unison: "Boss, give me three bowls of ramen!"

After a while, three bowls of steaming ramen were placed in front of us.

As we were enjoying the aroma of ramen, the student from City A suddenly shouted, "Boss, bring me some napkins." He took the napkins and gave one to himself and one to each of us. Then, he carefully wiped his chopsticks and the table in front of him, and said to the student from Province H in a serious tone, "I tell you, if you hadn't said this place was newly opened, I wouldn't have wanted to come here. These small restaurants are usually very dirty, Teacher Wang, you have to clean it up as well."

After hearing this, the student from Province H couldn't help but complain: "Oh, well, you're the only one who's clean. This shop just opened yesterday, how could there be cockroaches?"

The student from City A was unmoved and retorted, "Well, that's hard to say. Don't be so absolute. This one might be even dirtier than the previous one."

Seeing that the student from Province H was dismissive of what he said, the student from City A continued, "Don't disbelieve me. I have more experience than you in eating."

I continued to eat my bowl of noodles while watching them bicker. Although the noodles weren't particularly tasty, they were only five yuan a bowl, so I didn't expect too much. I thought to myself, this kind of small restaurant is good value for money.

However, at this moment, my eyes accidentally swept across the soup in the bowl. This sight was not a big deal, but it almost made me vomit on the spot. I saw a melon seed-sized creature floating on the soup in my bowl. The shape and color looked familiar to me. Isn't this the kind of bug that the students from City A introduced to me last time, which often appears in the sewers?

I felt sick and quickly put down my chopsticks, frowning, trying to erase the horrible scene from my mind. At this moment, the two of them seemed to have noticed my abnormality, and they all stopped eating and asked me what was wrong, Teacher Wang. I pointed to the bugs in the bowl, and they both immediately showed expressions of surprise and disgust.

At this moment, the student from City A reacted extremely violently. He suddenly jumped up, pointed at the cockroach in my bowl, and shouted, "Look, what did I say? You still don't believe me, this place is dirtier than that one! Look for yourself, this disgusting thing has even run into the bowl!"

As soon as he finished speaking, I felt a strong nausea in my stomach, as if something was churning in my stomach. I immediately stood up and rushed to the trash can next to me, wanting to vomit out the discomfort in my stomach. However, apart from a few mouthfuls of acid, nothing came out. Despite this, my stomach seemed to be tightly gripped by something, churning in waves, making me feel extremely painful.

I retched and blamed myself in my heart. I was so busy listening to their conversation that I didn't pay attention to my bowl. I hoped that I just saw this disgusting creature and didn't actually eat it.

My series of actions immediately attracted the attention of the people around me. They looked at me with curiosity and surprise, and some even whispered to each other. Those who understood what was going on quickly put down their bowls and chopsticks and left the restaurant in a hurry. Those who didn't understand what was going on looked at each other in confusion, not knowing what was going on.
