Chapter 75 Funeral

Morning.

The old car drove along the road.

We drove out of the city and arrived at the wild areas of Haicheng.

Walking another ten kilometers or so is Haicheng Cemetery.

Xu Cheng drove the car.

Qianqian was sitting in the passenger seat, scrolling through her phone.

She said hello to the old man first and declined tonight's game.

{What happened?}

{Today I am going to visit Haicheng Cemetery.}

{Sorrows.}

A brief conversation.

The old man is a human spirit, so of course he knows that there is no need to comfort his champion with a long speech.

After contacting the old man, Qianqian checked the news on her mobile phone.

One of them is particularly eye-catching.



Haicheng News Agency news:

Recently, an explosion occurred in the library of Haicheng University. After investigation, it was confirmed that the explosion was caused by a leak in an underground gas pipeline.

The incident resulted in one death and 18 injuries, all of which were out of danger.

Currently, the Haicheng University library has been sealed off, and the cause of the accident is under investigation.



This is the result of the aftermath handled by the professionals on the witness side.

Reasonable.

Xu Cheng also paid attention to the recent news.

He was in the library at that time, so he knew that there were only dead people in the library except him at that time, and the predator did not leave anyone alive at all.

Therefore, the eighteen injured people should all be "actors" arranged by the witnesses.

As for the death of principal Sun Shuhua, the external explanation is that Sun Shuhua was unfortunately hit by a falling rock while protecting the students who were in the library at the time, and died.

Strictly speaking, there's nothing wrong with this.

Predators are the nightmare of all living things, but the principal showed the pure arrogance of mankind that despises everything.

She in turn took advantage of the rules that the predator must abide by, forcing it to appear, and was eventually punched to death by Xu Cheng.

If a predator is allowed to appear at the school anniversary, the entire Haicheng University will turn into a hell on earth!

The principal did save her students.



"It's going to rain."

Qianqian stretched out her hand outside the car, feeling the wind blowing across the back of her palm.

She paused, and then said to Xu Cheng: "Thank you, dad."

Xu Cheng sighed softly and replied with a slight smile: "Why are you so polite all of a sudden?"

"I know you really don't want to go to Haicheng Cemetery."

Qianqian curled her lips, feeling a little guilty, "Because every time I come here, it's to see my mother..."

Xu Cheng: "..."

His eyes passed through the rearview mirror and fell on Chu Qiu sitting in the back seat.

Um……

It is said that since the old woman came back from resurrection, it seems that she has not thought much about visiting the grave.

Isn’t it a good idea to bring yourself to visit the grave?

Chu Qiu sensed Xu Cheng's thoughts and couldn't help pinching his arm.

"You're driving, please concentrate!"

"well."

Xu Cheng responded silently in his heart, with a slightly sad smile on his face.

As people get older, they will be much calmer about parting, but the sadness and helplessness cannot be hidden.

Chu Qiu returned to Xu Cheng by mistake.

But there are also people like the principal, whose passing is forever and will never come back.

"We're almost there, get ready."

"Yeah." Qianqian nodded.

As an ordinary student at Haicheng University, Qianqian could of course forward the news online like other people, adding a small candle emoji to express sadness.

But Qianqian didn't want to do that.

She still remembered that when she graduated, it was the principal in a wheelchair who moved the tassel on her head.

So Qianqian thought about it all night and finally decided to come in person.

She originally wanted to come by herself, but Xu Cheng insisted on giving her a gift.

"By the way, what is Xiao Han busy with recently?"

"He said he had a friend who was also injured in the explosion in the library, and he was taking care of him these days."

"Um."

Xu Cheng saw the sign of Haicheng Cemetery on the roadside and turned in.

Haicheng Cemetery was originally very deserted, but today the surrounding parking lots were full.

Many people came here to remember the passing president of Hainan University.

There are teachers, students, and old friends.

There were witnesses and legion veterans.

These people were mixed together, some were chatting in low voices, and most of them were silent.

Some people have already paid their respects to the principal and are ready to leave.

Some people are on their way.

There are more people coming continuously.

All kinds of thoughts emerged and reached Xu Cheng’s ears——

[Principal Sun, you were the one who plucked the tassels for me back then...]

【This accident happened too suddenly.】

[Veteran of the Legion, may you rest in peace.]

[Another old comrade has passed away, and I have been with him for almost a few years! 】

【……】

The original energy will affect Xu Cheng's ability to listen to his heart.

But even if he is an extraordinary person, as long as he is not in the state of absorbing original energy, Xu Cheng can still listen to the other person's heart.

In other words, what really interferes with Xu Cheng's mind-reading ability is actually the original energy itself!

As for why he couldn't hear the information about extraordinary power in the old woman's heart, Xu Cheng still couldn't figure it out for the time being.

Xu Cheng did not hear any disharmonious factors among the voices in his heart one after another.

This is good.

Whether it is Deep Space or the Star Chamber of Commerce, they are all eager to get the positioning coordinate formula in the hands of the principal.

The operation at Haicheng University failed, and Xu Jingchen was worried that those people would attack the president's grave, trying to find something useful from it.

But now it seems that these two forces obviously do not dare to cause trouble in a place where there are so many witnesses and legion veterans.

That is courting death.



This is an unconventional funeral.

There were too many people coming to pay homage to the principal, and Haicheng Cemetery could not accommodate everyone, so it had to choose to divert the visitors.

People came to the principal's grave with flowers in hand, put the flowers down, said a few words from their hearts, and then left.

It doesn't seem to be anything special, because everyone who leaves is like this.

While queuing up to lay flowers, Qianqian suddenly pulled the corner of her father's clothes and motioned him to look in the direction she was pointing.

Xu Cheng took a look and found that Han Xing was also there.

The distance between the two was too far, so Qianqian could only ask Han Xing through her mobile phone.

{Have you come to Haicheng Cemetery too?}

{Um?}

{I’m here too, look behind you.}

Han Xing turned around, saw Xu Cheng and Qianqian, and instantly understood the whole story.

After all, Hainan University is Qianqian's alma mater, and it is only natural for Qianqian to come to pay homage to the principal.

As for myself, as a witness, it is only natural that I come to pay homage to the legion veterans.

What's more, Han Xing has already thought of his reasons.

{My injured friend is still in the hospital, and he asked me to give his teacher a bouquet of flowers.}

{I see, are you going back with my dad’s car later?}

{Okay, then I’ll trouble Uncle Xu.}

After the conversation between the two was completed, Han Xing also presented a bouquet of flowers to the principal, bowed deeply and turned to leave.

After a few more minutes, it was Xu Cheng and Qianqian's turn.

Qianqian went to lay flowers, while Xu Cheng looked at the tombstone in front of him.

The tombstone has a photo of the principal during his lifetime, as well as his name, date of birth and death - but no biography.

There was only one pattern engraved on it, that of a burning candle.

This is actually very reasonable, because the principal is a teacher, and the phrase "the wax torch turns to ashes before the tears dry" is a perfect way to describe his life.

But Xu Cheng also understood that the candle also represented the "Candlelight Team".

After the ceremony, Qianqian planned to return to the car, but Xu Cheng had no plans to go back yet.

"You go first, I'll go see your mother."

"I am coming too?"

"It's not a special day. You're tired after queuing for such a long time. Let the child rest. I'll go and have a private chat with her."

"okay."

Qianqian nodded, turned and left, probably to find Han Xing.

Xu Cheng left the crowd alone, wandered around, and finally came to Chu Qiu's tomb.

Chu Qiu looked at Chu Qiu.

"Um……"

Chu Qiu thought for a while, and finally came up with a few words, "Otherwise, tear it down?"

"Put me down, my daughter will think of me as Alzheimer's if she finds out."

Xu Cheng rubbed his eyebrows, leaned against a nearby tree, and said helplessly: "Old lady, your ability to find something to say is getting better and better."

Chu Qiu: "..."

"Let's wait until everyone is almost gone before leaving, otherwise there will be a traffic jam."

Xu Cheng pointed at the principal's tombstone in the distance and explained: "And, look at her again, she is quite afraid of being alone."

Chu Qiu nodded.

The two of them just waited here, as the sky gradually darkened.

It's not evening, but it's about to go down.



Blah blah blah...

The light rain is like a cow's hair.

Xu Cheng opened the umbrella and tilted it in Chu Qiu's direction.

Now that everyone was gone, Xu Cheng also slowly finished his second cigarette of the day, got up and left.

But when he walked to the principal's tombstone, he suddenly found that there were people coming to pay homage.

She was a young girl, even a few years younger than Qianqian.

Behind her were people who looked like bodyguards, and finally stopped in the distance.

The girl took the umbrella from the bodyguard, then slowly walked to the principal's tombstone and presented her with a flower.

Judging from her appearance, she might be the eldest daughter of a wealthy businessman? She is also a student of Haicheng University?

Xu Cheng didn't pay much attention and was about to leave, taking the opportunity to listen to what the other party had to say.

This time, I heard a lot of noise.

He is an extraordinary person!

Xu Cheng's eyes moved slightly, and before he could speak, he heard the girl murmuring:

"I knew there was an 83.2% chance of meeting someone very interesting this time."

"Now, there is a 0.3% chance that he will take the initiative to talk to me, and a 98.6% chance that he will wait for me to talk to him."

Xu Cheng: "?"

He didn't move, but the girl did.

"Hello, old gentleman."

The girl turned her head and chose to take the initiative to talk to Xu Cheng, her voice was kind and nice.

"I'm from the Star Chamber of Commerce."

"They called me - president."
