Chapter 7 — Scoreboard in front of Tsinghua Gate

Maybe she didn't expect that a normal person like me who only knows how to ask "why" would sometimes scream. When police officer Khuong led her away, she was still crying. Not because of regret. But because I feel unjustly. Tham Hac Nien and Luc Hoai Xuyen were taken by Inspector Hua to Giang Hoai First High School to coordinate the investigation. Mac Vien Kieu was also called away. Mac Thien Thien stayed in the reception room, crying until her eyes were red and swollen. She walked up to me. "Sorry." I said: "You told me." She tightened her shirt. "I don't know how to make up for it." "Give me back my badge." Mac Thien Thien was stunned, then quickly picked up the badge on the table. I take it. The student number on the back has been slightly faded. She said in a low voice: "I will testify." "Thank you." "Aren't you scolding me?" I thought. "Your father already scolded me, I won't repeat it." Mac Thien Thien both cried and laughed. After treating the burns at the school's medical room, my mother still resolutely returned to the gate of Tsinghua University to pick up the remaining papers. Ms. Chu said it had been cleaned up. My mother insisted on transferring the money to the cleaning lady. The cleaning lady did not accept money, only accepted two wonton coupons from my mother. That evening, we stayed in a small motel near Tsinghua University. My mother put the interview notice under her pillow and woke up seven or eight times a night. Every time she woke up, she touched to see if the paper was still there. At seven o'clock the next morning, she called me up. "Tri Hanh, don't be too blunt during the interview." I brushed my teeth and asked, "What should I wear?" She thought for a long time. "If people ask why you want to go to Tsinghua University, don't say it's because the homeroom teacher told you to come." "So what do you say?" "Say you want to repay the Fatherland." "But now I want to investigate clearly who forged the signature the most." My mother closed her eyes. "The Fatherland also needs to investigate clearly." Outside In the interview room, I met Professor Manh. Today she dresses very formally. Seeing me, she gave me a piece of candy. "Precautions for hypoglycemia." I said: "I don't have hypoglycemia." "I used to." "Oh." She sighed. "Dan Tri Hanh, later the teacher will ask a question, you don't need to please, you don't need to tell the truth, just tell the truth." "The truth is sometimes not easy to hear." "Still easier to hear than lies." The interview was calmer than I thought. The teachers asked about my favorite fields of study, asked about my excellent student exams, and asked me how I viewed rules and humanity. The teacher finally asked: "If you could do it again, would you still go to the school gate and spread the scoreboard?" I shook my head. The teachers looked at each other. I added: "I will ask for help from the cleaning staff first to reduce the cleaning work." Someone laughed. Professor Manh also laughed. When I walked out of the interview room, my mother was standing at the end of the hallway, her hands clasped, muttering continuously. As soon as she saw me, she immediately ran over. "What?" "You know the question." "Does the teacher like you?" "I don't know." "You're not talking nonsense, are you?" "I'm telling the truth." My mother's legs were weak. I quickly helped her. In the afternoon, the results were announced. The first line in the expected admission list is Dan Tri Hanh. My mother looked at those three words for a long time. Afterwards, she squatted in front of the Tsinghua University bulletin board, crying like a child. I gave her a tissue. She cried and scolded: "If your father saw it, he would probably wake up laughing." I raised my head to look at the sky. The sky is very blue. The glass surface of the bulletin board reflected the image of me and the badge that I had just lost and then found on my chest. At this moment, the phone rang. Van Te Nguyet sent a text message. "Quickly return to school, the investigation results have been announced."10. When returning to Giang Hoai High School No. 1, the school gate was filled with students and parents. In front of the board

notice posting a copy of the handling decision. Lieutenant Minh Chau forged the student's signature, altered the nomination document, used corporal punishment on the student, caused serious harm, had his teacher status revoked and was transferred to the police for further handling. Luc Hoai Xuyen organized fake assessments against regulations, was recorded as having serious errors, was relieved of his position as class leader and transferred from his teaching position. Tham Hac Nien did not fulfill his responsibilities and was suspended from work for review. Mac Vien Kieu took advantage of his position to interfere in the school's nomination process and was investigated by the disciplinary agency. Mac Thien Thien proactively presented the incident and was disqualified from nomination this time but still retained the right to participate in the normal university exam. At the end of the message there is an additional line. Restoring the eligibility to participate in the direct interview for Tsinghua University of Dan Zhi Hanh students, the school publicly apologized. My mother read every word. Reading "public apology", she suddenly asked: "Where are they?" A microphone was temporarily placed on the podium in the middle of the schoolyard. All teachers and students were present. Tham Hac Nien did not appear. The vice principal held the manuscript, his voice dry.
