Chapter 20

Early the next morning, after finishing her work in a hurry, Wen Yu ran home with a bamboo basket on her back. She had just come out of Uncle Chai's shop.

Wen Yu needs to earn tuition fees in the future, and there are two steamed buns in her schoolbag, which Uncle Chai specially left for Wen Yu.

This is Wen Yu's meal for the day. Every time Wen Yu comes home from Uncle Chai's shop, puts down the bamboo basket, and has to go straight to the school before he can go to the main room.

What's more, going to the main room to eat is the same as not eating, what is left for Wen Yu is only a small bowl of bland porridge, which is pitifully small.He couldn't even count on Grandma to prepare lunch for Wen Yu.

Wen Yu never told Uncle Chai about these things, she didn't want to trouble Uncle Chai.Even though Wen Yu covered it up well, Uncle Chai could still know that he had a way, those neighbors who were gossips and gossips.

So he would help Wen Yu secretly. He knew that Wen Yu didn't want him to know, so he saved some steamed buns or roasted sweet potatoes or a white flour steamed bun for Wen Yu every day, so that Wen Yu could eat it secretly without being found out.

Wen Yu's eyes were very sour, she knew that Uncle Chai was very kind to her.

She also knew that Uncle Chai knew all about it, and neither of them exposed the situation.Wen Yu accepted Uncle Chai's kindness, and Uncle Chai continued to listen to gossip.

The school was built against a mountain, and it happened to be the river in the middle of the village when looking across.At that time, there were scholars who went to check the Fengshui books, saying that the Fengshui was very good because of the mountains and rivers.There is also a saying that it is built here to be quiet, and the shouts of the villagers will not be heard.

Quiet, indeed quiet.All the sounds of nature.

After Wen Yu came to the school out of breath, he entered the classroom for class.

After class, I sneaked up to the mountain to eat corn bread.

The more times I come to this mountain, the more I become familiar with it.

Only those children here dare not come, I don’t know where I heard the ghost story, saying that a long time ago, a landslide here killed many people, and their ghosts were stranded here for a long time, unable to reincarnate.Every night, you can hear the cries and wailing of those people before they died... and the school was built here to suppress ghosts.

The story was as bizarre as it could be, but they just believed in this unreasonable nonsense.When he saw Wen Yu running up the mountain, he became timid.

And Wen Yu happened to run up the mountain every time he knew that they were afraid.

After Wen Yu finished his breakfast, he went back to continue his class.

After class, she went to hang out with the seniors, she wanted to find Xu Jianing.

She remembered Xu Jianing's appearance, Xu Jianing looked to be about 14 years old, so Wen Yu searched in classes around this age.

Wen Yu was a little shy of strangers, she didn't dare to go directly to the class to look for Xu Jianing, she was afraid that Xu Jianing would not be there, so she stood on tiptoe, stretched her head, and tried hard to look towards the window, her eyes quickly searched to find Xu Jianing's figure.

Wen Yu came after every get out of class, she walked around outside the senior class, watched it again and again, but she didn't find Xu Jianing's figure.Wen Yu was a little disappointed, she rushed out to guard after class, there was no way Xu Jianing wasn't there.

Wen Yu was very disappointed.

Is it because Xu Jianing didn't come to school today?

This thought suddenly flashed through Wen Yu's mind.

So she stayed at school yesterday until the evening?Is there something wrong at home?

Some seniors outside saw Wen Yu coming here several times, as if they were looking for someone.She had heard about Wen Yu's family and sympathized with Wen Yu.She thought she might be able to help Wen Yu, so she walked towards Wen Yu. "Wen Yu, who are you looking for, I can call her/him out for you."

Wen Yu looked at the senior sister, twisting the corners of her clothes unconsciously with her hands, her eyes lit up, "Sister, do you know Xu Jianing? Can you, call her out for me?" The senior sister was obviously taken aback, she had never heard of it before. the name.

"I don't know her, so do you know which class she is in?" Wen Yu shook her head. "I only know that she looks about 14 years old." Wen Yu replied sullenly.

Senior sister was helpless, "Let me help you ask."

Wen Yu walked behind the senior sister and asked all the senior students. They all said that there was no such person in the class, and there was no such person as Xu Jianing.

One class after another came to find them, and heard one sentence after another, "No." "Who is Xu Jianing?" Wen Yu's heart sank little by little.

The senior sister was a little surprised, and asked Wen Yu if she remembered the name wrong.Wen Yu pursed his lips, just bowed his head to thank the senior sister and left in a hurry.

Because Wen Yu thought that Xu Jianing never said that he was a student here from the very beginning. As for Xu Jianing being the teacher's child and a student here, all of this was made up by Wen Yu himself.

But Wen Yu still didn't give up, she desperately needed a conclusive evidence to prove that Xu Jianing was really not here.

As long as, as long as I go to the principal's office and check the student files, everything will be solved.I knew whether Xu Jianing was here or not.

For Wen Yu, Xu Jianing is Wen Yu's first and only good friend.

She took a wire to pick the lock after all the teachers came home from school in the afternoon.After Wen Yu had an idea, she immediately acted to find a thin wire, and she opened the door and went in.

This is the most daring thing Wen Yu has ever done.

Wen Yu rummaged carefully, and finally moved his gaze to the top cabinet.The cabinet is placed very high, and the overall height is as high as two Wenyu.

Wen Yu stepped on the stool, opened the cabinet door, and took out the student files to check.

There are not many students in the school, so it was quickly finished. Wen Yu stubbornly started to search again and again, but still couldn't find Xu Jianing's name.

She held the file with her head down and remained motionless. A beam of light came through the window, and the office was intertwined with light and darkness.The sun was about to set, and then Wen Yu calmly put the things back where they were, tidied everything up and went out, closing the door.

But Wen Yu's eye sockets were red.

Everything yesterday was like a dream. If you wake up from the dream, you should wake up too.But Xu Jianing is so real, is it really a dream?

Wen Yu still vividly remembers what Xu Jianing said.Wen Yu was at a loss, she couldn't find any trace of Xu Jianing's existence in this school.
