Capítulo 1164: Chapter 1164: Strange Events
Luckily, although the exterior looked a bit shabby, the rooms inside were cleaned very nicely.
The four girls booked two standard rooms.
Yue Qingqing and Mi Shu stayed in one room, while Lu Zhu and Pan Muling stayed in another.
ng Qing stayed in a room by herself.
After the five of them put away their luggage, ng Qing took everyone out for a al.
They found a local authentic restaurant to have lamb offal soup.
The restaurant owner’s skills were quite impressive.
The broth made from mutton was rich and hearty, and the lamb offal was processed in such a way that there was no gaminess, only delicious tenderness.
The broth had so green onion, ginger slices, and chili added; a sip brought warmth from the stomach to the throat.
It was just that having this in the middle of sumr was a bit untily, and everyone was sweating as they ate.
ng Qing explained, “This is a local specialty, so I specifically brought you all over to try it. It’s actually best to eat it in winter.”
The owner listened and smiled at the group.
“There are good things about winter, and sumr has its advantages too. Let get you a plate of shredded radish, it’s refreshing and tasty.”
The owner could tell these people were from out of town.
“This plate is on the house, a treat for you. You’re students, right? How co you’re touring around here?”
Yang’an County isn’t much of a tourist spot; there’s not much scenery, and the wind is strong.
Occasionally, the wind carries sand, and stepping outside can leave you covered in dust.
“Just browsing around, we happened to end up here.” Lu Zhu seed very chatty, “Boss, your skills are top-notch.”
Seeing Lu Zhu’s thumbs up, the owner chuckled, feeling even happier.
“That’s right, don’t be fooled by the size of my place; I’ve been running it for over twenty years, it’s considered a local classic.”
“Wow, that’s impressive.” Lu Zhu said in surprise, “Just the right person to chat with. We still don’t know where to go.”
The owner imdiately recomnded a few places.
“Our county is small, a tiny area, you can get everywhere in a day, these places are all connected.”
Lu Zhu took out a map she had bought on the way.
“Right, the places you ntioned are here, right? Nearby, I see there’s an Experintal Middle School. I went to an Experintal Middle School back in my hotown. How’s the teaching quality at this school?”
Except for ng Qing, the others all had a strong student vibe about them.
The owner didn’t think the question was strange at all and casually waved a hand.
“Not so good anymore, especially last year and this year, almost no parents send their students there anymore.” The owner sighed with emotion, “Who would have thought a student from that school got into Minghua University before.”
They exchanged glances secretly.
Pan Muling was surprised and exclaid, “A student even got into Minghua University? That’s incredible.”
The owner shook his head, “Don’t just look at the grades; that kid was bad news.”
“Eh? Why do you say that?”
The owner seed to have deep feelings about it, and since it was sumr, the off-season for lamb offal soup,
there were no custors, so he didn’t mind chatting with a few out-of-town students.
However, he lowered his voice as he spoke.
“Seeing you guys are from outside, I’ll tell you. If you were locals, I’d never dare to say a word.”
“Why’s that?”
“That student’s family is unreasonable; if they hear soone talking about their son, they’ll co to the door and make a scene, wailing for a whole day, making it impossible to do business.”
Sure enough, it was sothing Ma Kangping’s mom would do.
They held their breath, listening as the owner sighed.
“Actually, you might not believe it, but the Experintal Middle School is haunted now. There have been quite a few strange happenings these two years. The forr principal and secretary of the school both ended up in trouble—one is still lying in the hospital, and the other resigned and went ho.”
