Chapter 760 - 760:1 Will Help You
Would they really have a good time if they were kept in the dark?
Wu Qiuyun did not know what choice she should make, nor did she know how to answer their questions.
“All of you… Have you tried calling the police?” Cao Xiaorui saw that Wu Qiuyun had not spoken for a long time, so she asked tentatively.
Duan Wenguang’s father’s expression was a little gloomy. “I called the police, but the police said there were no clues…”
Ji Yuanyuan thought about it carefully. The time when Duan Wenguang’s parents called the police was probably about the same time when she and Teacher Wu went to the police station.
As they said just now, they only reacted when they were about to board the train at noon the day before yesterday.
They must have called the police immediately.
After the police investigated, they gave Wu Qiuyun a reply and also gave them an answer.
During this period, they must have tried to find Zheng Guo and Zhou Hua, but they were all in vain.
Se??ch ?ew?o?e?/o?g o? ?oo?l?
They were forced into a corner, so they wanted to use this method to attract attention, hoping that someone would help them.
“Teacher, you know that Xiao Guang is such a good child. He can’t just die for no reason. He must have been bullied or pushed down from upstairs. Help us find clues…” Duan Wenguang’s Mother held Wu Qiuyun’s hand tightly as if she were holding onto a life-saving straw.
Wu Qiuyun took a deep breath and finally made a decision, “Give me your phone number. I’ll call you if there’s any news.”
Duan Wenguang’s parents looked at each other and were both rather excited.
“Paper, find a piece of paper. I’ll write it down for you…” Father Duan looked around, trying to find a pen and paper.
Wu Qiuyun took out her phone, “It’s alright. Just say it.”
Father Duan reacted and quickly reported his phone number.
Wu Qiuyun made a call, but no one answered after waiting for a long time.
“Did I say the wrong number?” She was a little surprised. “I called you, but why didn’t you respond?”
Father Duan pursed his lips awkwardly, “The phone’s battery is dead.”
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Father Duan’s awkward expression and suddenly understood something.
The school must have only arranged for them to stay for the first day.
They didn’t even care about the accommodation afterward.
How could they bear to stay in a hotel? The weather wasn’t too cold now, so they probably just found a random place to deal with it at night.
There was no chance to charge his phone without a place to stay.
It had been a few days. Even the most durable phone would probably run out of battery.
Ji Yuanyuan looked at Cao Xiaorui, “Senior Sister, bring Teacher Wu back first. I’ll bring Uncle and Auntie to a hotel room.”
Cao Xiaorui and Wu Qiuyun reacted when they heard Ji Yuanyuan’s words.
Just as they were about to leave, the couple looked at the leftovers on the table with reluctance.
They didn’t eat much and could not just leave it like that. It seemed a little too wasteful.
Ji Yuanyuan could tell that the two of them were reluctant to leave. She called the waiter over and packed all the leftovers.
People who farmed for a living all had the habit of not wasting food.
Second Uncle was the same. At the New Year dinner table, he always tried his best to finish all the food and could not bear to waste it.
After leaving the restaurant, Cao Xiaorui left on her bicycle with Wu Qiuyun.
Ji Yuanyuan said, “Uncle, Auntie, come with me. I’ll get you a room. You can wait in the hotel. You can ask the front desk to send you food. Don’t worry, it won’t take a few days. No matter what the result is, Teacher Wu will let you know.”
Mother Duan followed behind Ji Yuanyuan helplessly. After Ji Yuanyuan finished speaking, she reached out and grabbed the corner of Ji Yuanyuan’s shirt, “Child, you can go back. We… We have a place to stay. You don’t have to arrange it…”
Mother Duan stuttered as she spoke. She was obviously not used to lying and was a little nervous.
Ji Yuanyuan did not expose her lie. She only smiled and said, “You can return the rooms you booked earlier later. I didn’t pay for the rooms myself. I used the scientific research fees given by the school. It’s the school’s money. After checking out of the room, they would reimburse me. Anyway, we don’t need it, so we can give it to you.”
She thought that if Duan Wenguang’s parents knew that she was the one who paid for it, they definitely wouldn’t stay with a clear conscience.
Since they were hostile to the school now, they would not refuse if it was the school’s money.
This amount of money was nothing to Ji Yuanyuan.
However, it could make these two old people, who had just suffered the pain of losing their children, feel better.
Sure enough, after Ji Yuanyuan finished speaking, Duan Wenguang’s parents looked at each other and did not refuse.
Ji Yuanyuan brought them to a decent-looking hotel at the school’s back door and checked them in.
After they were done, the waiter brought the couple upstairs. Ji Yuanyuan did not follow them.
She didn’t want to continue to witness the couple’s awkwardness. It would make her feel even worse.
When they returned to the laboratory, Cao Xiaorui and Wu Qiuyun had already returned. The two of them sat on the chairs in silence.
Seeing that Ji Yuanyuan had returned, Wu Qiuyun raised her head and asked, “Have you arranged everything? How much is it? I’ll give it to you.”
As he spoke, she was about to take out his wallet.
Ji Yuanyuan held her hand, “No need. It’s not much. This way, I feel better.”
Wu Qiuyun knew what Ji Yuanyuan was referring to.
Ji Yuanyuan was still brooding over the matter of Duan Wenguang looking for her half a month ago.
If spending some money for Duan Wenguang’s parents could make her feel better in her heart, then there was nothing wrong with it.
With this thought in mind, Wu Qiuyun put her wallet back into her pocket.
The atmosphere in the laboratory fell silent again. Cao Xiaorui looked at Wu Qiuyun and then at Ji Yuanyuan. She asked carefully, “What should we do?”
Since she had already promised Duan Wenguang’s parents, he couldn’t possibly do nothing, right?
However, even the police couldn’t find anything. Could the three of them really find anything?
How would she explain to Duan Wenguang’s parents if there was no gain at all? How was she going to explain it to the principal?
Wu Qiuyun took a deep breath, “This matter has nothing to do with you. Just continue to do the experiments according to my instructions for the next two days. I will handle this matter myself.”
Cao Xiaorui’s face turned red.
“Teacher Wu, that’s not what I meant…” Cao Xiaorui wanted to explain.
When Zheng Keke came that day, she had already retreated once. This time…
Wu Qiuyun waved her hand, “You don’t have to say anymore. Hurry up and rest for a while. Continue to monitor the experiment in the afternoon.”
Cao Xiaorui’s words were choked back by Wu Qiuyun. She pursed her lips and walked away silently.
However, Ji Yuanyuan did not leave. She brought the first aid kit over, “Treat your ankle. I’ll go get you some ice.”
Wu Qiuyun opened the medicine box and looked at the medicine inside. She smiled self-deprecatingly..
