Vocational school students dropped out one after another. Each student's file had a long-term sick leave note signed by their parents, but their parents claimed that their children had never been sick. Fang Jing, the thirty-seven-year-old deputy director of the Student Affairs Office, needs to track down the disappearance of students while maintaining the school's enrollment rate, teachers' salaries, and her own position. She will meet students who want to make money as quickly as possible, parents who have their wages garnished, local businesses that rely on the school's students, and teachers who are unwilling to admit that they have been cheated.
Purpose: When institutional protection conflicts with personal wishes, the real difficulty is not to judge who is right and who is wrong, but who is qualified to define harm for students and decide who will bear the losses caused by protection.
