Girl Taken to Dinner by Teachers Falls to Death From Building, School Says Reporters Looking for Trouble
Summary: October 27, Qingdao university freshman girl Liu Xiao’ao along with 5 other schoolmates were asked out to “have dinner” by 6 college teachers. Afterwards, she mysteriously fell off the building from a 4th floor restroom and died. This reporter got in contact with the Party committee secretary of the school involved, but when he heard that this reporter wanted an interview, he scolded this reporter: “Why the hell do you report this for? Don’t go looking for trouble!” This reporter investigated and discovered that Liu Xiao’ao isn’t the only one who died from this school within the past year.

September 1 of this year, family had just helped her move into this college, but how could they have known that this could be their final farewell. Liu Xiao’ao’s father told the reporters, that on the night of October 27, Liu Xiao’ao and 5 other schoolmates were asked out by 6 of the college teachers to have dinner, and without knowing what they had done to his daughter, at 10:34 in the night, Xiao’ao tragically fell from the window of a hotel/restaurant’s 4th floor restroom and died instantly at the scene.
That day also happened to be the college’s anniversary.
From Qingdao’s local media reports, this reporter saw that the media reported that Liu Xiao’ao and the others had drunk more than 40 bottles of beer. However, Liu Xiao’ao’s father rejects the local media reports and believes the local media has been misled by the Qingdao Qiu Shi College.

Liu Xiao’ao’s uncle told reporters: “The kid was so beautiful, and she is just at the age where she’s filled with fantasies and innocence. She had just been accepted by the Flight Attending major and was full of dreams about her future, the child couldn’t possibly have wanted to commit suicide!”
Towards the death of his beloved daughter, Liu Xiao’ao’s father told reporters: “My child came to college to learn. In the middle of the night, who told you teachers to take out my child to ‘have dinner’? Most importantly, did those teachers make her drink alcohol? If they did, a girl, who doesn’t have much experience in society, what was their motive for having her drink so much alcohol? If she didn’t drink, then how did a sober person simply fall from the building? Was it because they did something to my child while they were having dinner? Did my child flee and fall to her death, or did someone intentionally push her down? …These questions all require explanations from Qiu Shi College!”
“It wasn’t until the second day after my child’s death did the college notify us to come. Why didn’t they notify us immediately after something happened to my child, why delay for a day before notifying us? What did they do during this one day’s gap? Today is already our 8th day here, and the school authorities keep hiding from us refusing to see us, concealing the truth and shifting responsibility.” Liu’s father said, “Qingdao Qiu Shi College treats life as worthless, already killing one just less than two months since the semester began, who knows how many more families will lose their beloved daughters and sons like us if the college continues to operate? We dare not to imagine, but through our lesson in blood, we will try to persuade other people to open their eyes, and see clearly the true colors of ‘Qingdao Qiu Shi College’. We’ll seek justice for our beloved daughter at all costs!”

Liu Xiao’ao’s father told this reporter: “After what happened to my child, our entire family was devastated, feeling as if the sky had fallen. As soon as we arrived at Qiu Shi College from our hometown Zibo, we found many suspicious things: Students who saw us treated us like the plague and couldn’t get away from us fast enough; The school had already long before we had arrived taken measures to seal off the college, block information, spread rumors, and conceal the truth. What more, they had largely promoted in the local media and amongst the students that my daughter had gotten drunk by herself and had an accident.”
“What was even more unimaginable to us was that Lin Xibao, the college dean, kept using various excuses to avoid meeting with us until 6 days later when he reluctantly spoke to us on the phone, only for him to not only not say a single word of condolence but instead accuse us of physically and verbally abusing teachers. We haven’t even seen those teachers and don’t even know what they look like, so how could we have physically and verbally abused them?” Liu Xiao’ao’s father told this reporter, “Even if my child had an accident while drunk, why did the teachers at school let a female student drink that much alcohol? What were these teachers trying to do? What kind of school morality is this? How are they setting an example as teachers?! I truly regret sending my child to this school.”
During the interview, a teacher from another private college told this reporter: “To be honest, Qiu Shi College is actually just a business under the pretense of providing education and educating students. As long as it can make money, they’ll do anything, dare to promise anything, dare to open any major, and even if they don’t have the qualifications/credentials, they’ll still open popular majors. The school principal is just a businessman.” And another insider told this reporter: “Actually the Flight Attending major of Qiu Shi College is just a scam, and graduates of this major won’t be hired by any airline companies to be stewardesses whatsoever. It is only because Qiu Shi College is not far from Qingdao Liuting International Airport that they came up with a ‘Flight Attending’ major when in reality it is just a scam.”

The third death, is Liu Xiao’ao who was taken out by teachers to “have dinner”. Before these, Qiu Shi College also had other incidents of student deaths. Qingdao Qiu Shi College forces teachers to recruit new students or face being dismissed. A young man who claims to be an undergraduate of Qiu Shi College warned this reporter: “The school is covering up the truth, and it’s more sinister and vicious than merely murder. All day long, they just think about how to recruit new students, how to cheat people, how to con more money.”

Two legal experts told this reporter that in places with a lot of people, some accidents are inevitable, but there shouldn’t be any continuous deaths, so the school must have problems with their management. As for the death of Liu Xiao’ao, apart from the school being responsible for mismanagement or inadequate supervision, the teachers and students who had dinner with Liu Xiao’ao together should be held responsible. who asked her or made her to drink beer at dinner? She fell from the 4th floor window, there must be something wrong with the hotel’s facilities, the hotel should also be responsible.
