Chapter 24
Wu Lei laughed as soon as he heard it, "You really know how to pick your time, kid. Didn't you watch the news? A child jumped off a building in No. [-] Middle School yesterday, and it's the weekend again. I'm sure we won't let outsiders in casually."

After hearing this, Song Jiang smiled awkwardly and said, "I didn't go to see Teacher Li when she was sick, and you know...my grades in school really couldn't meet her old man's eyes, so I didn't go to see her when she was sick. It's time to make her unhappy."

Wu Lei sighed after hearing this, "Jiang'er, what do you want me to say about you? You always care so much about other people's eyes... I have seen a lot in the past few years as a forensic doctor, and no one can satisfy everyone , why change yourself to cater to others? No need! You just need to be yourself! Besides, I always think that you are no worse than others, and I believe that one day you will realize your dream."

"Don't comfort me... I know how much I know." Song Jiang said helplessly.

"I'm really not trying to comfort you. Let's talk about the ugly things first. After your kid's book becomes popular and prosperous, don't forget me, an old classmate! As for Mr. Li... we can't say She is a bad person, but she pays too much attention to the students' grades and her own performance. Everyone has shortcomings. You can't treat her as a god just because she is a teacher. Besides, she is gone, so don't always Thinking about the unpleasant things that happened before, she was actually quite miserable, she died of cancer in her early forties, and few students were there to see her off when she left." Wu Lei said with emotion.

Song Jiang nodded and said, "That's right...it's my fault that I was too young and ignorant. By the way, was Mr. Li still working in No. [-] Middle School before he got sick?"

Wu Lei thought for a while on the phone and said, "Should be here, I remember that she had just been awarded the national outstanding teacher of that year, but within a few months, news of her illness came out."

After hanging up Wu Lei's phone call, Song Jiang had been lost in thought. Meng Zhe, who had been listening to the wall for a long time, asked at this moment, "Did that teacher Li you mentioned treat you very badly?"

Song Jiang sighed after hearing this, "It's not particularly bad, but I just don't like me very much. After all, my grades were really bad at that time, and I was a transfer student who came halfway, so she always said it secretly. Remind me not to hold back the class..."

Meng Zhe nodded and said, "This is really not a good teacher. In my opinion, besides improving students' grades, it is more important for teachers to teach students how to behave, rather than blindly punishing them. Children's self-confidence... There are good and bad things in this world. The vision is beautiful, but whether it can be realized or not depends on the individual. If everyone takes the first test, then the first is no longer the first Now, we must learn to accept the differences in this world, and we must learn to accept our own differences."

Song Jiang didn't expect Meng Zhe to say such a truth, so he said with a smile, "I wish I could meet a teacher like you who knows how to respect students."

Unexpectedly, Meng Zhe snorted softly and said, "What are you thinking? I'm the White Tiger God, and I'm your teacher? You can't cultivate such a blessing in eight lifetimes!"

Song Jiang heard the same thing, but now that he thinks about it, he can’t blame Teacher Li blindly. After all, the teaching environment at that time was like this. In the school, no matter the students or the teachers, they all use their grades to talk about things. A student’s good grades in exams are the teacher’s fault. Good grades at work, these two aspects are always closely connected, so Teacher Li should be under a lot of pressure...

Meng Zhe saw that Song Jiang was silent again, so he purposely joked, "Why don't you tell me Teacher Li's birth date, and I'll arrest her living soul for you right now, and ask her to apologize to you face to face!"

Song Jiang quickly waved his hands and said, "You can mess around... Teacher Li has been dead for so many years, don't bother her old man."

After Meng Zhe heard this, he took the opportunity to run on him and said, "Since you also know that Teacher Li has been dead for so many years, why are you still afraid of being like that?"

But Song Jiang directly diverted the question, and suddenly looked at Meng Zhe with a humble face and said, "Brother Meng, I want to ask you a question."

"Say……"

Song Jiang thought for a while and asked, "You said that if a person died of illness in a hospital, would her ghost appear in the place where she worked before?"

Meng Zhe leaned back on the sofa after hearing this, and said lazily, "Tch... I thought you were so serious and wanted to ask some serious questions, of course it's fine, as long as that ghost is persistent enough Deep is enough. But I looked at that building, and there are no evil spirits in it."

Song Jiang wondered after hearing this, "But I clearly heard Teacher Li's voice, and I heard it twice!"

At this time, Meng Zhe's eyes were a little evasive, and his attitude was very perfunctory, "That's because when you entered, you thought of the bad things you experienced in school before, so you made an association. Don't you believe me? I said that there were no ghosts in that building at that time, so there must be no ghosts..."

After Meng Zhe finished speaking, he pretended to glance at the wall clock on the wall and said, "What time is it, do we still have dinner? There's more! What if the person surnamed Xu doesn't come tonight? You still want to eat?" 24 hours straight?"

Song Jiang successfully changed the topic by him. He thought for a while and said, "If Lao Xu doesn't show up today, we can only work the night shift for the time being. Anyway, there are basically no customers during the day."

After hearing this, Meng Zhe stretched his waist and said, "I'll go to bed first, call me when dinner is ready!"

Seeing Meng Zhe lying down and going to sleep, Song Jiang had no choice but to walk into the kitchen with a helpless face. In fact, he saw that Meng Zhe had something to hide from him. In his eyes, he is just a small human being...

That night, when Song Jiang and Meng Zhe came to the library again, the closed shutter door indicated that Lao Xu still hadn't come back...Because Meng Zhe was taking a shower and blowing his hair before going out, it took some time, so when they arrived It was already dark in the library.

Song Jiang took out the key and opened the shutter door, and suddenly remembered that it was the first time he had entered the library door after dark, so he turned to Meng Zhe and said, "I went out to pick up a takeaway at night, and came back Finally, I couldn’t find the gate of the library, and finally sat on the side of the road until dawn.”

Meng Zhe laughed and said, "That's normal. This place becomes a library for ghosts at night. How can you, a living person, see the entrance? Now you are different. Now, you have been infinitely close to death, so naturally you can see things that you couldn't see before."
