Yama

After the conversation, the effect was quite obvious. At least Yan Cheng felt that Ji Qiao's indifference towards him had softened a little bit. Sure enough, Ji Qiao's sincere attitude could still buy it. Yan Cheng decided that he should focus his efforts in this direction in the future. .

The next morning after three classes, the physics representative of the class suddenly came to call Ji Qiao, saying that the old lady was looking for him. Ji Qiao thought that Yan Cheng and Yang Xiao would go there, but he was the only one there.

The devil old lady Wu had a complicated expression when she saw Yang Xiao, and there were two teachers, a man and a woman standing beside her.

The old lady asked, "Ji Qiao, did you go to the laboratory yesterday?"

Ji quietly nodded.

"About when did you go?"

"Afternoon, self-study class."

"Who else was there then?"

Ji Qiao thought for a while, "There are quite a few freshmen in high school."

"When did they leave?"

"When school is over."

"What about you?"

"About eight o'clock."

"Is the door locked?"

"locked."

"Where's the key?"

"I'll hand it back to Teacher Deng later." Ji Qiao pointed to the middle-aged woman standing next to the old lady. She also taught physics in the second year of high school, but she taught the next few classes.

Teacher Deng nodded, "He gave it to me, and no one came to ask me to take it after that."

"That is to say, you were the last one to leave?" Another male teacher said at this time.

Ji Qiao didn't answer, he looked at Mrs. Wu with a questioning gaze.

Mrs. Wu's heart is still towards her students, "Don't rush to judge, I will ask."

"Were you there when the first grade did the experiment yesterday?"

Ji Qiao said, "I'm outside."

"Didn't see the process inside them?"

"No."

"Then was there anyone else around when you were doing the experiment?"

"No……"

Mrs. Wu was speechless.

The male teacher said, "Do you know that a microgravity experimental device in the laboratory is broken. It was caused by a program error caused by improper use, and the internal power supply was short-circuited. There was a small fire yesterday, but fortunately it went out after a while. It has not spread to other places, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous."

The male teacher looked at Ji Qiao's face, "We asked a few first-year students before that they don't need to use this device for their extracurricular projects, and everyone confirmed that they had never touched that machine before, but they used it yesterday. Yes, only you."

Ji Qiao was very calm, "I didn't break it."

"Can anyone else prove it?"

Ji Qiao, "..."

Mrs. Wu frowned, "There is no one else to prove that it is Ji Qiao's improper operation."

The male teacher said, "You are wrong. There are only two groups of people who have touched this machine, and one of them is always the cause of the damage. The maintenance personnel also said that this accident was completely caused by human beings. Since it is not a first-grade Yes, that’s the only remaining possibility.” Although he is not the physics teacher teaching the first grade group, he is the leader of the first grade group, and he will be held accountable for any problems, so his tone is particularly tense.

Mrs. Wu scowled, but couldn't find anything to refute for a moment.

The male teacher said to Ji Qiao again, "We didn't say that you did it on purpose. Sometimes a carelessness or not following the correct order of operations can cause unnecessary consequences. Maybe you didn't realize it yourself. Understandable, but you have to be honest."

Ji Qiao's eyes became cold, and she still said the same words, "I didn't break it, it was still good when I left."

The male teacher was not very happy when he saw his attitude, "We can't talk about you like this, let your parents come over."

Ji Qiao was taken aback, and then she heard Teacher Deng say, "There is no monitoring system in the laboratory, but I remember that there is a corridor outside the corner, so you may not be able to directly see what happened, but you can also check it." Check to see if anyone else has been there after Ji Qing left?"

But Ji Qiao's complexion turned paler because of this sentence.

And this expression was being noticed by the male teacher, who immediately thought that Ji Qiao was showing a guilty conscience, and he said loudly, "Then go to the security department to investigate and monitor to see if there is a third group of people. Well, everyone is fair."

"Alright." Mrs. Wu nodded.

Ji Qiao watched as Teacher Deng was about to turn around and leave, she gritted her teeth secretly, and suddenly made a sound after a while.

"and many more……"

……

When Ji Qiao returned to the classroom, the fourth class had already started for 10 minutes. Yan Cheng waited for him to sit down and asked, "Where did you go?"

Ji Qiao paused, "Toilet."

Ji Qiao didn't say anything all afternoon, even though he usually seldom talks, but Yan Cheng just felt that Ji Qiao seemed to be a little out of spirits, thinking that he stayed in the toilet for so long in the morning, might it be because of a stomach upset? Okay, Yan Cheng went to the canteen downstairs to buy a cup of hot drink for Ji Qiao.

Ji Qiao looked at the drink brought to her, and took a sip silently for a moment.

Seeing this, Yan Cheng smiled like a flower.

Before the last class, the old lady called Ji Qiao to the office again.

"I've discussed with the higher-ups. There are two punishment measures. One is to give a written inspection, explain the process of the matter and realize my careless mistakes. The other is monetary compensation," it turned out The male teacher wanted to give Ji Qiao another small punishment, but Teacher Wu firmly opposed it.

"I don't know about your situation, but this device is not cheap, so you don't need to pay the full amount. It has been used for a year. The school finally decided that the teaching and research team will pay 20.00% and you will pay 50.00%." ​​The old lady finished. , looking at Ji Qiao's face, "Is there any difficulty? If there is any inconvenience, you can tell me, and I will fight for it, or let me tell your parents?"

Ji Qiao came back to her senses and shook her head, "No, I can bring the money tomorrow." After hesitating for a while, she added, "However, I have a request."

"You said."

"I want this to be kept private."

After a little thought, Mrs. Wu understood Ji Qiao's thoughts. Whether it was spread among teachers or students, it would not be very good. A few of us related people know about it, and I will try my best to keep it from spreading to other people.”

Ji quietly nodded.

The old lady sighed, and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't affect your state because of this matter, there is still a bonus in this competition, a lot, it must be more than the compensation, and you just need to strive for this result, teacher At the end of the semester, I will tell your head teacher to apply for a scholarship for you."

The coldness on Ji Qiao's face faded a lot, she looked at Teacher Wu, "Thank you."

After school, Ji Qiao didn't go to the library with Yan Cheng. He said he was not feeling well and wanted to go back to the dormitory early. Of course Yan Cheng was nervous, but Ji Qiao also let him take her downstairs to the dormitory. He told him not to eat too much cold food, and pay attention to cover the quilt at night, until the crowds who came and went noticed them, so he reluctantly left.

Ji Qiao went to the dormitory to get her bank card, and after making sure that Yan Cheng had gone far, she left the school.

Standing in front of the ATM, Ji Qiao counted her savings.

This microgravity experimental device is indeed not cheap, even if the wholesale price of the school is 5000 to [-], Ji Qiao has to pay half of it, that is to say, it will cost [-] at once. Last time he drew ten thousand for the publishing house. One manuscript, one in color, and the rest in black and white, the total is more than [-]. After removing the living expenses of these hours, and putting together the previous earnings, it is almost perfect.

Ji Qiao looked at the remaining single digits in the account, and silently stuffed the money into her pocket.

Ji Qiao's original plan was to use the 1000 yuan to buy a new mobile phone for herself. The high-end brand in his hand was brought back from Korea by Chi Shuxuan. Because it was out of stock, he only took two phones at that time. Zhen don't want it, because the color is too ugly. At that time, Ji Qiao's cell phone was broken, Jiang Zhen threw it to him, saying that if Ji Qiao didn't use it, just throw it away. Ji Qiao took this as a transition, but he I always want to buy a new one myself, not so good.

But now this idea will definitely not be realized for the time being.

……

The next day Ji Qiao got up as usual, but she went out 10 minutes late, Sun Xiaojun was surprised.

"Ji Qiao, aren't you going to buy breakfast?"

Ji Qiao didn't respond.

Sun Xiaojun broke off half of the pancake he was biting into his mouth and gave it to him. Ji Qiao looked at the wet saliva on it, but finally didn't reach out.

After class all morning, Yan Cheng saw that Ji Qiao's expression was still not good, so he proposed to go to the cafeteria to eat. He ordered a vegetable porridge for Ji Qiao, but Ji Qiao didn't reject it, so she picked up the chopsticks and ate it in a hurry. Afterwards, he never mentioned money to Yan Cheng.

Yan Cheng was happy to see the results, and thought to himself that yesterday's conversation really had an effect, but after a few days he found that it didn't seem to be the case.

Ji Qiao's skin is fair, and his temperament is rather gloomy, but Yan Cheng knows that he is still quite healthy, and there are parts of his whole body that should have flesh, especially the buttocks and lower back, which are very firm and feel good to the touch.But today when he hugged it up, he found that there was always a bit of emptiness in his arms.

Ji Qiao lost weight?

It's only been a few days?

In the empty classroom, Yan Cheng hugged him and did not let go, and asked cautiously, "Do you want to see a doctor?" He thought Ji Qiao had a stomach upset.

Ji Qiao said, "I'm not sick."

"Just checking."

Ji Qiao squinted at him, Yan Cheng could only say, "Okay, I won't check if I don't check."

He held Ji Qiao's head and kissed the corner of his mouth, as if to comfort him.

……

Sun Xiaojun was studying hard, and when he heard that someone was looking for him, he ran out to have a look, and was quite frightened.

Yan Cheng cut straight to the point, "What's wrong with Ji Qiao?"

Sun Xiaojun was stunned, "Huh?"

Yan Cheng was impatient, "Ask you?"

Sun Xiaojun's brain turned a few times before he realized, "Probably not..."

Yan Cheng, "Think about it again, I have made a series of study plans here, and he is going to be sick, who can I ask for help in the physics competition."

Sun Xiaojun suddenly realized, "This...looks okay," he tried to recall, "but his appetite is not very good, it seems that he doesn't eat much for breakfast and dinner."

No breakfast, no dinner, just lunch?

Yan Cheng frowned.

And following Yan Cheng's observations in the next few days, he found that Ji Qiao ate a lot of lunch, and there was no sign of a bad appetite, so why was he?

Yan Cheng finally couldn't bear to ask the truth.

"Are you short of money?"
