the years when i was in heaven

When Qiu Hai and the principal teacher arrived, they were stunned for a few seconds, and then they covered their eyes helplessly.

The boy tightly hugged Mingli's waist, and Mingli tried to peel him off like candy. Both of them were wet, and one of Mingli's leather shoes was thrown out in the entanglement.

Qiu Hai picked up the shoe, and the boy had already been pulled away by the teacher.

"What do you care about with a child in your thirties?" Qiu Hai walked over and squatted down, and put the shoes on for Ming Li.

Ming Li supported his shoulders, panting, "This bastard is plotting against me! Fortunately, I still want to comfort him kindly."

Under the stern voice of the teacher, the boy explained what had happened.The dean was terrified when he heard this, and seeing that Mingli's dignified and expensive uniform was almost drenched, he was startled and frightened, so he hurried over to apologize.

The teacher dragged the boy into the room, all of them looked bad.

"Xiao Lin has been mischievous since he was a child, and no one can control him." The headmaster looked at Mingli's uniform with shame on his face, thinking how much it was worth.He was heartbroken, rubbed his skinny hands, and stumbled, "Captain Ming, I will pay for your clothes to be dry-cleaned."

Mingli waved his hand.He had no reason to ask the dean to spend money. Besides, they came to visit the child, which made each other unhappy, and they couldn't explain to the leader when they went back.

This is how it went.

Fortunately, Mingli brought a suit of casual clothes, and changing into a sweater and sweatpants meant that he could not show his face in all shots and photos.Before the game was over, the captain was out first, and it was speechless to think about it.

Mingli simply moved a small bench to sit with the children and listen to Qiu Hai's lecture.

It has to be said that Qiu Hai's class perfectly inherited the characteristics of the teachers of the Flying Academy, and it was boring.With complex definitions and difficult technical terms, he speaks clearly and unequivocally.The children below were all holding pens and papers with confused faces, and they didn't know what to write down.

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected the classroom, and it was time for get out of class to end, followed by dinner time.

The orphanage does not have a separate private room for entertaining guests. Everyone eats in the small cafeteria, including the director. The only special treatment is that the teachers have a round table.

At this time, the crew sat with the teachers.Most of the teachers' attention was on the flight attendants, only the dean and an assistant teacher of the dean were chatting with Ming Li Qiu Hai.

The dean told them about the predecessor of this orphanage, how it was established, and what the life experience of the children here is.After the dean introduced it all over, Mingli looked around, "Why haven't you seen Xiaolin?"

One of the teachers said: "It's time to go to the river to play in the mud, and he will come back with a disheveled face. Hey, if he is a little more obedient, we won't always say that he punishes him."

After dinner, the crew was about to leave. The dean was so excited by the meal, and he felt like old friends at the first sight. He pulled Ming Li and Qiu Hai and refused to let them go. They insisted on having a long talk all night before having supper.

So the other crews went back, Qiu Hai also changed into casual clothes, and the two stayed behind.

At nine o'clock in the evening, the drunken dean personally sent the two of them to the door.The dean couldn't walk unsteadily and didn't need the teacher's help, so he burped Mingli and said, "Old...brother, I'll send you back!"

Mingli said helplessly: "No need for the dean, you should go to bed early."

"No, no!" The dean swung his uncontrollable arm, pointing at the teacher next to him, "You, send them back."

"No, really no need." Qiu Hai said: "There is a bus at this point, just take the terminal and you will not be far from home." He said to the teacher: "Hurry up and help your dean in."

"I'm sorry, I, I don't know how to drive." The teacher scratched his head, said a few polite words like "come to play next time", and helped the dean back.

The temperature is low at night, but there is no wind. The air in the suburbs is particularly good, and the sky is full of stars.

Ming Li took a deep breath, he didn't drink much, he was embarrassed to say that the dean's drinking capacity was too bad.He put one hand into the pocket of Qiu Hai's clothes and interlocked his fingers.

"go home."

Qiu Hai looked at him, "Well, go home."

It takes about 15 minutes to walk from here to the bus station. There are both cement roads and dirt roads. After walking for a long time, the two heard footsteps gradually chasing after them.

They stopped and looked back, and it turned out to be the teacher next to the dean just now.

"Teacher Xiaolu?" Mingli was stunned for a moment, "It's really not necessary to send us off."

"No, I'm going out to look for Xiaolin." Teacher Xiaolu turned on the flashlight, and was a little embarrassed to see them touching their heads.

"Xiaolin hasn't returned yet?"

"No." Teacher Xiaolu put away his embarrassment and shook his head, "I used to come back at 08:30 at the latest at the latest. I don't know what's wrong this time. It's not enough to say a few words about him during the day. I used to often say about him. ah……"

The more Mr. Xiaolu spoke, the lower his voice.

Ming Li and Qiu Hai looked at each other.

"Where is the river that Xiaolin often goes to?" Qiu Hai asked.

Teacher Xiaolu knew what it meant as soon as he heard it, and refused politely: "Oh, he can't be busy, we are used to it. Go back quickly, the last bus here will be at this time."

"It's a cold day, and an adult should be able to go back after staying outside for so long. He's a child, and he's not a fool. There's no reason why he shouldn't go back so late," Ming Li said.

Teacher Xiaolu was speechless for a while, but when Mingli said it, he also became worried.

The three of them discussed for a while, and decided that Mingli and Qiu Hai would look for it in the direction of the bus station, and Teacher Xiaolu would go to the small river. If they could find it, they would go back directly by car. If they couldn't find it...

"Then call the police." Qiu Hai said firmly.

"Call the police?" A trace of hesitation flashed across Teacher Xiaolu's face. He came here from a small county town, but due to his limited ability, he could barely work as a teacher in this orphanage. He had never done anything like alerting the police in his life.

"Mr. Xiaolu, you are more familiar with this area than we are. If you can't find Xiaolin, you must contact us immediately and we will call the police." Mingli saw Teacher Xiaolu's hesitation.

"Okay." Teacher Xiaolu nodded solemnly.

Ming Li and Qiu Hai quickened their pace and came to the bus stop after a while, and the last thing they wanted to see happened.

A shoe is tilted beside a rusty bus stop sign.Qiu Hai picked it up, there were mud and blood stains on it.

Mingli recognized this shoe, and without thinking, he immediately took out his mobile phone to call the police, but this is not too remote a place and there is no signal! ?

"Damn." He dialed several times, the signal seemed to be blocked by the surrounding barren weeds, and he couldn't get out, "What can I do?"

They can stand by and wait for the last bus to ask for help from the people on board, but there is no signal and no internet, Qiu Hai can't be sure if they missed the last bus.

If Xiaolin is not found when returning to the orphanage now, will the time spent between them be a fatal blow?Not to mention the shoes were found at the bus stop.

After thinking quickly, Qiu Hai said, "Turn on the flashlight, let's look around."

I don't know how many years this land has been. Maybe it has little commercial value, and there has been no investor to develop it for a long time.

As it turns out, no is right.Regardless of geographical location or population concentration, this area has not been very good in the past ten years.

Mingli held the phone in one hand, and brushed away the waist-high weeds with the other.He turned his head, and saw that Qiu Hai's flashlight was on not far away, and he felt relieved immediately, and continued to paw.

"Xiaolin! Xiaolin!!"

Mingli yelled, but no one responded, is it really by the river?But where did that shoe come from?

He was groping and thinking, the grass was too dense, and sometimes the lamp couldn't reach the bottom. Just when he stepped on a seemingly flat place, his feet suddenly sank, and he lost his footing and rolled down the slope.

"Mingli!"

Hearing the movement, Qiu Hai ran over and jumped down the slope in twos and threes.

Mingli's cell phone was thrown from his hand and was thrown on a rock. The entire cell phone was cracked and the flashlight was useless.He sat up covering his head, and Qiu Hai was already kneeling beside him, touching him from top to bottom, and when he touched his thigh, Mingli's facial features wrinkled into a chrysanthemum in pain.

His thigh was scratched by a tree branch, and the bleeding was not serious, but he couldn't stand up.Qiu Hai visually judged the length and slope of the slope, and it was impossible to climb up with him on his back.

"Yeah, put yourself in it too." Mingli babbled.

Qiu Hai glared at him.

He shrunk his head, "What's the matter, I am brave and fearless, what are you staring at me for?"

Without further ado, Qiu Hai took off his coat, and tied Mingli's thigh with two sleeves to stop his bleeding.

"I don't know where Xiaolin has gone. Is she trapped in a certain pit like us at this moment." Mingli looked at the bright starry sky, his eyes became a little more serious.

Qiu Hai took out his mobile phone, but there was still no signal.

Saving people means being rescued. If this "good story" is passed back to the company, it will occupy the top searches for a long time.

Right now, I can only wait for rescue, but it is very late, and there is not even a sign of trouble around.They sat there for a while, when suddenly there was the sound of a car driving in the distance, and a beam of light shone through the weeds on the slope.

"Damn it, the last train!"

Ming Li waved his arms, but it was useless. How could the driver see it? He pushed Qiu Hai and said, "Go up quickly, go up and stop the car."

Before Mingli pushed, Qiu Hai stood up and ran up three steps and two steps.However, how can a person run faster than a car? The driver may see that there is no one at the station, and the speed will not be reduced, and he will drive away without stopping.

"..."

"..."

It was useless to stop the car, the slope was easy to climb down and difficult to climb up, Qiu Hai retreated halfway up the climb.Now I can only pin my hopes on Teacher Xiaolu who went to the river to find someone.

"What if Xiaolin finds them, why do they think we've already gone back?" Ming Li questioned his soul.

"Whether the person is found or not, at least they will give us a call. If we still can't get through, it can explain some problems." Qiu Hai patted the loess on his trousers, and sat down against Ming Li.

Fortunately, the two of them wore a lot, so Ming Li took off his down jacket and wrapped it around them.At night, the temperature hovered above and below zero, and they leaned together to keep each other warm.

On the surface, Qiu Hai was fine, but in fact he was very anxious. He was worried that Mingli's leg injury would not last long.Even if there is no fear of life, it is not an option to consume it.

"Is there anything you want to say to me when you are parting from life and death?" Qiu Hai joked, he needs to judge Mingli's consciousness by talking uninterruptedly.

Ming Li nestled in his arms helplessly, "What the hell is life and death?"

Qiu Hai smiled, patted his head, and said, "I want to confess something."

"Yo, love history?" Mingli looked at him with interest.

"Talk nonsense again." Qiu Hai hugged him tightly, wrapped his down jacket tightly, and said softly: "Do you remember when we were in the Cold War, you met me at the gate of the company once when you landed and took me back. Actually that day..." He Stick it on Mingli's face, "Actually, I drove that day."

Ming Li stared at him blankly, "You...you scheming man!"

Qiu Hai laughed out loud, with white breath coming out of his mouth, "How can this be called scheming, this is called high emotional intelligence."

Ming Li looked at his side face, and it was nothing more than Xing Chen Hai met this face.Back then, he really never expected that he would be entangled with this man for nearly ten years.

"In that case, I have to confess." Ming Li said.
