Strive for Science

Shen Changan ran back to Teacher Yao's house, and saw that Teacher Yao was holding a letter in his hand. The envelope was a little yellowed, and it seemed that it had been put there for a long time.

"There is one thing... I wanted to tell you when you came to see me two years ago, but at that time you were busy preparing to participate in a competition, I was afraid that this matter would affect your performance, so I didn't say it " Teacher Yao put the letter into Shen Changan's hands, "This letter has been lying in the mailbox of my house for a long time, and it was not until I got a new mailbox three years ago that I realized that there were two letters in the mailbox."

The periodicals and magazines he ordered over the years were sent to the guard room, and the mailbox was never used, so he never thought that there would be a girl who put these two letters in it before she died.

"This is..." Shen Changan looked at the beautiful words on the envelope. There was no postmark or stamp on it, only the words "Please pass it on to Shen Changan, Teacher Yao".

"Do you still remember a girl named Lin Cui?" Teacher Yao saw Shen Changan staring at the envelope, "When she was in the second semester of her sophomore year, her family let her drop out."

Shen Changan thought back carefully, there seemed to be an unremarkable girl in the class, named Cui, he had no impression of this girl, he only remembered that she always walked with her head down against the wall, and when there were many people, she would even She covered her face with her hands, afraid that others would look at her.

But why did this girl write to him?

"Shortly after Lin Cui dropped out of school, she committed suicide."

Shen Changan opened his eyes wide in shock, he looked up at Teacher Yao, "Why?"

Teacher Yao shook her head: "I don't know. In the letter she left me, she only thanked me for taking care of her." Teacher Yao regretted a little. Things wouldn't have turned out like this.

Lin Cui hadn't died yet, she was still at the average age, he didn't know what drove this girl to a dead end.After he saw the letter three years ago, he went to Lin Cui's house to look for her family members, but was scolded by her family members.

"I see..." Shen Changan put the letter into his coat, and he forced a smile to Teacher Yao, "Teacher, it's cold, you should pay more attention to your body."

"I know better about health preservation than you young people." Teacher Yao patted him on the shoulder, "Be good, and when the teacher celebrates his [-]th birthday, I'm still waiting for you skinny kids to come and congratulate me energetically." Woolen cloth."

"Not only for your [-]th birthday, but also for your [-]th birthday, I also packed myself up to attend the birthday banquet in good spirits." Shen Changan glanced at the time, "Go to rest earlier, I'll come and see you next time. "

"Okay." Teacher Yao waved at him, his eyes full of kindness.

With the yellowed letter in his pocket, Shen Changan went downstairs to Dao Nian who was waiting there: "Dao Nian, let's go."

After walking a few steps, he found that the little girl he saw in the afternoon was hiding behind the tree trunk, and seemed to open her mouth to say something to him, but Shen Changan didn't hear anything.

"What?" Shen Changan stopped and looked at the girl, "What are you talking about?"

The little girl pointed to her throat, then pointed in the direction of Shen Changan, shaking her head violently, her face full of fear.

Dao Nian looked back at her slowly, she stopped shaking her head, after hesitating for a few seconds, she gritted her teeth and prepared to rush over, but she found that her feet seemed to be rooted, unable to move half a step.

"Little girl sees that you are good-looking and wants to talk to you, but she is shy." Shentu teased with a smile, "Chang'an, the little girl is still underage, so you must not make principled mistakes."

Shen Chang'an: "Shen Tu, don't be like a greasy old man and make fun of other little girls."

Shen Tu: "..."

Greasy old man?he?

Shen Changan waved his hand towards the little girl: "Goodbye, go back to read early."

The little girl froze. Seeing the smile on Shen Changan's face, her shoulders gradually collapsed, and she squatted down hugging her knees.

Seeing the little girl shrunk into a ball, Shen Changan sighed, and pushed Dao Nian out.

Shen Tu: "Aren't you going to comfort me?"

"No matter what she's thinking, as an adult man, I shouldn't do anything to misunderstand her." Shen Changan carried Dao Nian into the car, "Underage girls are ignorant, adults should be clear about their own behavior." doing what."

Shen Tu put the wheelchair into the trunk and smiled at Shen Changan: "This kind of thinking is correct."

When getting into the car, the letter that Shen Changan had put in his coat pocket fell out.

"What is this?" Dao Nian glanced at the letter, not intending to pick it up for Shen Changan.

"This one……"

The car had already started, and the street lights outside were not bright enough, so Shen Changan bent down to pick up the letter: "A suicide note."

A suicide note that was written six years ago and was only passed to him now.

High school brought him joy, but also some bad memories.When people are in their teens, they are the most casual and unrestrained age. They think that they have grown up, so they can be fearless. However, in this age group, some people are in pursuit of their own happiness, even if they hurt others. Don't worry about anything.

The classmates who have a good relationship with him can also turn around and bully other classmates who seem to be honest. After he stops him, they will always think that this is a betrayal of friendship.

Perhaps it was because he lived with older people since he was a child, and Shen Changan was more mature than his peers. He didn't like bullying others in groups, so throughout high school, he had a good relationship with his classmates, but he couldn't get along with them. Everyone becomes close friends who talk about everything.

Probably because of his mature thinking, he was out of tune with his classmates in the second year of middle school.

Dao Nian was silent for a moment, and said to Shen Tu, "Shen Tu, find a place to park."

Shen Tu parked the car on the side of the road, Dao Nian turned on the reading light in the car, and said to Shen Chang'an, "Turn it on and have a look."

"I'll go across to buy two cups of tea." Shen Tu opened the car door and walked down. In the quiet car, only Dao Nian and Shen Chang'an were left.

Shen Changan carefully opened the envelope, and took out two pieces of letter paper that had been lying in the envelope for six years.

[Hello Shen Changan:

By the time you read this letter, I am probably no longer in this world.I'm sorry, I passed the letter to you in this way, because I don't know any other way for you to see this letter except here, Mr. Yao.

Maybe I shouldn't bother you by writing this letter, but there are not many people in my life who I want to thank, and there are not many people who make me feel warm, so please forgive my willfulness.

I sat in the house all night, and felt a little unwilling to leave this dirty world so silently, so I wanted to leave something behind.

...]

Shen Changan carefully read the contents of the letter, not missing a single word.

[I know that I am not beautiful, and I also know that the clothes I wear are ugly and dirty. I can clearly see all the mocking eyes that fall on me.I wanted to pretend I didn't care, but I couldn't.Sometimes when I go to the bathroom and pass the corridor, I hear some boys laughing and booing, and I can't wait to jump over and fight them hard.

But I dare not, I was born a cowardly person.I was poor, ordinary, I couldn't take jokes, I was sensitive and unlikable, so I was ostracized and laughed at.I secretly envy other girls who have beautiful hairpins and expensive extracurricular books. They can get together to discuss the latest TV series and which star is better, but I... have nothing.

The feeling of being ridiculed and ridiculed by others is too uncomfortable. I often think, if I am beautiful, have a good family background, and have parents who love me?Will the classmates in the class stop calling me a "unlucky girl" and show me strange smiles? 】

Looking at this text, Shen Changan gradually had some impressions in his mind. At that time, there were a few naughty boys who liked to get together and talk about who the beauties and ugly girls were in the class. They play with people of this kind, and sometimes they get too loud, and he stands up to stop them.

But unless he smeared the mouths of these students, their bad mouths would not be changed.

【Shen Changan, thank you for standing up and protecting my weak face when I was most embarrassed. 】

Shen Changan recalled that in the freshman year of high school, some girl accidentally dropped a piece of women's menstrual period products. At that time, the naughty boys in the class were laughing and pointing, and guessed who dropped the thing. In the end, they The result of the guess seems to be this girl named Lin Cui?

【At that moment, I was extremely embarrassed. Under the mocking eyes of my classmates, I wished I could jump off the window.When you stood up, picked up that piece of sanitary napkin and threw it into the trash can, I felt that someone in the world finally put on a piece of clothing for me when I was most ashamed.

You stand on the podium and say to those booing classmates: "Stop making troubles, and don't borrow my homework after you make troubles. Anyway, it doesn't matter whether you copy homework or not. The important thing is that I want to please half of the world's population." female classmate."

Everyone booed and asked if you had a girl you liked, forgetting about the sanitary napkins. 】

In this girl's letter, Shen Changan helped her several times. He lent her an umbrella, borrowed her pen, and even handed her a bottle of water in the physical education test class, all of which were remembered in her heart.

This kind of insignificant matter was completely forgotten by Shen Changan long ago, but this girl remembered it so clearly.He felt a little uncomfortable, because he didn't help her more at the beginning.

[I want to study hard, get admitted to the same university as you, and then stand in front of you confidently and be friends with you.But all this is impossible.My disgusting family, my disgusting stepfather, shattered all my dreams.

Shen Changan, I'm so sad.

If a person can really become a ghost after death, I will definitely not spare him.

It's so hard to live, it's too painful.

I can't be friends with you for the rest of my life, bye.

I hope you can find a very good girl to stay with you for the rest of your life and live a very, very happy life. 】

Shen Chang'an put the letter away with trembling hands, he suddenly remembered something, saw Shen Tu coming over with milk tea, turned his head and said to Dao Nian, "Dao Nian, it's cold outside, you and Shen Tu will wait for me in the car for a while .”

He opened the car door and ran out.

"Shen Chang'an, where are you going?" As soon as Shen Tu walked to the side of the car, he saw Shen Chang'an running out, opened the car door and looked at Dao Nian, "Sir, has Shen Chang'an discovered that girl, is... ... ghost?"

Dao Nian remained silent.

"Shall we go and see?"

"He told us to wait for him here."

Shen Tu: "..."

So you just wait here obediently?Since when did you become so talkative?

"We'll be there in 5 minutes." Daonian was confident, he waited, but he didn't say how long.

Shen Tu sat back in the driver's seat silently, well, he understood.

Every school seems to have its own ghost rumors. A school without ghost stories is not a perfect school.

The girl ran desperately, and a yellow-robed Taoist priest was chasing after her unhurriedly: "Evil ghost, obediently catch you with your arms tied, or don't blame me for beating you out of your wits."

As soon as the words fell, he threw a yellow talisman in his hand, and the girl screamed, fell from mid-air, and lay on the ground trembling unceasingly.She looked at the Taoist who was getting closer and closer to her in horror, "Please, please forgive me."

"You are full of hostility, if the way is to spare you, wouldn't it mean that you will harm others?" The Taoist held the mahogany sword, "With the way, you don't want to harm others."

Hatred appeared in the girl's eyes: "You Taoist priests who don't distinguish between right and wrong, when I was bullied, none of you were there. Now that I'm dead, I stay quietly in the school, and I haven't even harmed anyone. But you want to get rid of me?!"

The night wind blew the ginkgo leaves on the ground and made a rustling sound. The yellow-robed Taoist priest found that the hostility from all directions was constantly pouring towards the girl, and this powerful aura made him unable to take a step closer.

This is, this is... going to evolve into a demon?

The yellow-robed Taoist was shocked, and he raised his mahogany sword, intending to chop off the female ghost's soul and stop her evolution.However, the moment the mahogany sword touched the female ghost, it turned into pieces.

"Since you are so unfair, then I will find justice myself." The girl's fingers swelled, her eyes were red, and her whole body was surrounded by evil spirits, "I want all of you who have hurt me to pay for it with blood!"

The bright moonlight was gradually stained crimson, and the yellow-robed Taoist priest was sweating all over his head. He turned around and was about to run, but the girl grabbed the back of his shirt.

"Aren't you trying to catch me? Why are you running away?" The girl sneered sharply, "You stinky Taoist priests claim to be righteous, so I want to see what your Taoist hearts are like!"

Because she didn't have a father, she was bullied since she was a child, and was ridiculed by her classmates at school. Her mother watched her stepfather bully her, but said she seduced him.When she was alive, she didn't have any reason. After she died, she just wanted to stay in this school, see the teacher who took care of her, wait for the only boy who helped her, and occasionally go back to her alma mater to visit the teacher.

This is all she wants, why are these people unwilling to let her go?

kill them!

Take revenge on them!

Since they don't want her to live, why does she have any scruples?

No one should think better.

"Lin Cui."

"Lin Cui, are you still there?"

The hand that had been pierced into the Taoist's back slowly stopped. Lin Cui looked at her protruding fingers, then at the bloody back of the Taoist, and suddenly withdrew her hand.

"Hiss!" Although he couldn't see it, the yellow-robed Taoist priest felt that the wound on his back was bleeding like a fountain.Seeing that the female ghost let him go, after running for a long distance, he suddenly thought that the person who called his name just now might be a stupid and ignorant mortal, and it only takes the blink of an eye for the female ghost to kill a mortal.

He cursed and turned back again.

Thinking that he has been in Tingzheng for nearly ten years, his life has become more and more difficult recently. Not only was he arrested at the police station for a few days, he was also publicly announced by his master to be expelled from the sect, and his Taoist certificate was revoked by the association.I wanted to come to the Imperial Capital to earn some money by watching Feng Shui, and found that the school had a ghostly atmosphere. I was worried that the students would be harmed by ghosts, so I took in a ghost for free. I didn't expect to stimulate this ghost to evolve into a fierce ghost on the spot, and she beat him into a grandson.

Since going to Wuming City, his luck has been worsening day by day, and that place must be against him.In the future, he must be hundreds of kilometers away from Wuming City, no matter how much money he has, he will not earn it.

"Evil ghost, don't harm innocent mortals, or you will be thrown into the eighteenth level of hell..."

"Get out!" The female ghost slapped Ting Zheng in the pile of ginkgo leaves.

Ting Zheng covered his mouth, picked up the fallen teeth, and slowly got up from the ground.He had better run for his life, in front of this kind of fierce ghost who can dominate one side, he is a bronze player, unable to save mortals who are dying.

But before he had time to take two steps, the person who called the name ran over from the tree-lined path.

Wearing a suit and leather shoes, with long and fair legs, she looks...huh?

Isn't this the ordinary person that Master used to mock him when he was in Wuming City?Why is he here?

No wonder he was so unlucky tonight, there were people from Wuming City here.It's not that he likes to open map cannons, he feels that not only Wuming City, but even the people of Wuming City can beat him.

Shen Changan ran out of breath, passed through the tree-lined path, and saw the girl standing under the moonlight, he slowed down: "Are you... Lin Cui?"

The female ghost lowered her head and secretly hid her hands behind her back.

Her thin body did not leave a trace of shadow under the moonlight, standing alone, looking a little pitiful.

"I'm sorry, I didn't recognize you at first." Shen Changan took a few steps forward, and the girl saw him approaching, she lowered her head and silently stepped back a few steps.

Sensing that she didn't want him to get too close, Shen Changan stopped in his tracks: "I saw the letter you left for me."

The female ghost raised her head to look at Shen Chang'an, her red eyes looked particularly frightening under the moonlight.

As if Shen Changan didn't see it, he apologized to the girl: "I'm sorry, I didn't help you back then."

"Everyone has their own life, and it is the most beautiful warmth in the world to stand up when you see injustice." The girl said very carefully, she seemed to be very afraid that Shen Changan would be sad, "I should give it to you." Say thank you, thank you for bringing bright sunshine to my humble and ordinary life."

Thinking of the contents of that letter, Shen Changan felt very uncomfortable: "Don't worry, I will help you get justice, and will not let the perpetrators go unpunished."

"After so many years, there is no evidence." The girl shook her head, "Shen Changan, if you go to the police now, it will only bring you trouble. Shen Changan, my life is over. Life brings trouble."

"It's not troublesome to stand out for old classmates." Shen Changan shook his head firmly, "Only by making those who have done evil pay the price, the world will become orderly and beautiful."

The red in the girl's pupils faded little by little, and her elongated fingers gradually returned to their normal appearance.She became what she was when she died again, with injuries all over her body. Although she lost hope of living, she was not crazy yet.

Ting Zheng, whose back was covered in blood, looked at this scene in disbelief. This man... actually used words to save the ghost? !

Could it be that Master didn't lie to him that this passer-by is really better qualified than him?

"Shen Changan, thank you." The girl smiled timidly, and she looked at the good-looking and perfect boy in front of her.She looks at the photos on the publicity board every day, guessing what kind of life he is living now, whether he is happy, whether he is successful, whether he has a lovely girl by his side.

But all speculations are not comparable to the moment when his real person appeared.

He was the same as before, soft-hearted and kind, and asked her if she needed help.She didn't expect that Shen Chang'an could see her. She was both happy and inferior. She was happy because they met again, but inferior because even if she became a ghost, she still looked ugly and ordinary.

In the past, she always saw him coming in a hurry and leaving Teacher Yao's house in a hurry, but she only dared to look at him from a distance, and even felt that if she tried to meet him, it would be blasphemy.

She waited here for six years and finally met him.He wasn't afraid of her because she was a ghost, nor did he dislike her because she was covered in injuries.

How could there be such a good person in the world.

If she kills someone...

Shen Changan must be very disappointed, very sad, right?

"Tomorrow morning, I'll go to the police." Shen Changan looked at the girl's body that seemed a little more transparent, "Do you have any other evidence to provide?"

The girl was silent for a long time: "Do you feel...dirty?"

"Every girl is a cute little angel." Shen Changan looked at the fragile girl in front of him, "The dirty ones are those villains."

The girl wanted to cry, but there were no tears in her eyes.She touched the corners of her dry eyes: "I hid my diary and U disk in a hole on the balcony at home."

She didn't want anyone to see that diary in her life, especially she didn't want Shen Changan to see it.

However, she wanted to be brave once tonight.

Perhaps after tonight, she would never have another chance to be brave.

"I remember." Shen Changan walked into the little girl, and stretched out a clean palm to her, "Let me introduce myself again, I am Shen Changan, do you want to be friends with me?"

The girl stared at Shen Chang'an in a daze, stretched out her hand cautiously, then retracted it timidly.

"Won't you shake my hand?" Shen Changan smiled at her.

The girl slowly and firmly stretched out her hand.

Her skinny and rough hand full of scars held Shen Changan's warm palm tremblingly: "I, my name is Lin Cui, I want, I want to be friends with you."

When the two hands were held together, a warm silver light radiated from her body, and her body became lighter.

"Good friend, I wish you a warm family in the next life, parents who treat you like jewels, a happy childhood, and a safe and happy life." Shen Changan stretched out his other hand and gently touched the top of her head, " It's time for you to find a new life."

The warm touch on the top of the head made the girl forget all the pain and unwillingness. She stared blankly at the smiling young man in front of her: "In the next life, will I have these?"

"Yes." Shen Changan nodded.

"I believe in you." She smiled shyly.

Shen Changan retracted his head, looked up at the soul-attracting butterfly flying out of the woods: "Then, goodbye, my good friend."

"Shen Chang'an, you have to be careful with him."

"Who are you watching out for?"

"Be careful……"

"Chang'an." Dao Nian appeared under the ginkgo tree in a wheelchair, the moonlight stretched his shadow, "I've been waiting for you for a long time, why haven't you come back yet?"

Shen Changan turned his head to look at Daonian, then looked at Lin Cui's dead soul who had turned into a ray of light, and followed the soul-leading butterfly away, and walked back to Daonian: "Sorry for keeping you waiting."

Dao Nian: "Did something happen just now?"

"It's a small matter." Shen Changan took out his mobile phone, "I might need to call the police."

"The call to the police can be delayed for two minutes. Can you call an ambulance first?" In the pile of ginkgo leaves, a trembling hand stretched out, "I think I may have lost too much blood."

At night, he stretched out a bloody hand, which startled Shen Changan, and subconsciously blocked Dao Nian behind him: "Who?"

"Me." Ting Zheng raised his head from the pile of dead leaves, "He is alive and needs to be rescued."

You can even save ghosts, so are you still afraid of a living person?

Shen Changan: "..."

This isn't Ting Zheng, whose Taoist certificate has been revoked, why is he here?

He was the one who Lin Cui told him to be careful just now?

The author has something to say: Sometimes I really hope that there will be a kind Shen Changan next to everyone who is in despair.
