女生高考582分，查分后给警察发了条短信

6月25日，湖北高考成绩公布，宜昌秭归县公安局交管大队车辆管理所辅警袁江平，收到一条陌生号码发来的短信。

“阿姨，不知道您是否还记得我，三年前我因学习压力和人际交往而崩溃，深夜坐在江边大哭，您和一起散步的阿姨开导了我并安全把我送回家……高考成绩出来了，我考了582分……感恩您在我最无助的时候给予我温暖与力量。”

逐字读完，一段尘封三年的往事在袁江平脑海缓缓浮现。

On the evening of June 25, shortly after Hubei released its college entrance exam results, Yuan Jiangping, a traffic police assistant at the vehicle management office of the Zigui county public security bureau, received an unexpected text message from an unfamiliar number.

As she read the message, a memory from three years earlier came rushing back.

一条突然的高考报喜短信

缘自三年前江边的偶遇

2023年5月12日晚10点，袁江平和同事向伟在木鱼岛江边散步，突然听到一阵哭声，“远看像是一个小孩，身影瘦小，这个时间点，不正常。”两人马上走下江边护坡查看，发现一名瘦弱的女孩独自蹲在江边，把头埋进胳膊和腿里，不停哭泣。

On the night of May 12, 2023, Yuan and her colleague, Xiang Wei, were walking along the riverbank at Muyu Island when they heard someone sobbing.

"From a distance, it looked like a child — a small, slender figure. At that hour, we knew something wasn't right," Yuan recalled.

The two officers immediately walked down the riverbank slope to check and found a slender teenage girl crouching alone by the river, her face buried in her arms as she cried.

经了解得知，女孩当时读初三，临近中考，因学习压力和处理同学关系中的困惑，内心几近崩溃，独自跑到江边哭泣宣泄情绪。

The girl, then a ninth-grade student, was overwhelmed by the pressure of the upcoming high school entrance examination and troubled by difficulties in her friendships. She had gone to the riverbank alone to vent her emotions.

袁江平和向伟蹲下身，耐心倾听女孩诉说，并轻声安抚，“孩子，别怕，有什么委屈慢慢跟我们说，说出来会好受一些。”“你要相信你自己，做好自己，只有你自己越来越好了，别的声音都不重要。”

两位辅警阿姨开导陪伴一个小时后，女孩情绪渐渐平复，“谢谢阿姨开导我，我现在好多了。”

After spending about an hour talking with and comforting her, the officers helped her regain her composure.

"Thank you for talking with me. I feel much better now," the girl told them.

待女孩情绪平复后，袁江平和向伟陪着女孩走上江边公路，准备拦出租车送她回家。懂事儿的女孩拒绝了阿姨的好意，独自登车：“谢谢阿姨，我身上带了钱的，我自己回家。”袁江平再三叮嘱，到家后一定要发个信息。

当晚11时左右，收到平安短信，袁江平立即回电确认，这才放心。

Once she had calmed down, Yuan and Xiang walked her to the roadside to help her hail a taxi. The girl politely declined their offer to accompany her home, saying she had enough money for the fare.

Before they parted, Yuan asked her to send a message after arriving home safely. At around 11 pm, a brief text came through, and Yuan immediately called to make sure she was safe.

女孩把感谢藏了三年

高考后终于发来短信

这件“小事”，袁江平和向伟从未向同事提起，日子一长，自己也忘了。她们没想到，那个深夜伸出的援手，被女孩记了整整三年。

今年高考放榜后，女孩在发给袁江平的短信中写道，当年深陷无助绝望的深夜，两位陌生阿姨给予的温暖与力量，她铭记了整整三年。

高中三年，有好几次想跟两位阿姨说说近况，但生性腼腆的女孩，怕打扰阿姨们忙碌的生活。直到高考结束取得理想成绩，她才鼓起勇气来跟两位阿姨报喜，诉说这三年来的点点滴滴。

Three years later, after receiving her gaokao results, the girl reached out again.

She explained that she had often wanted to contact Yuan during high school but hesitated, fearing she might interrupt the officers' busy work. Only after finishing the gaokao and receiving encouraging results did she finally find the courage to share the good news and express her gratitude.

袁江平既惊讶又感动，“我们只是做了分内该做的事，没想到孩子记了整整三年。”她当即给女孩回复信息，“孩子，你的坚持和努力，才是真正照亮自己的光。未来可期，加油。”

高考结束后，女孩与家人在校门口合影。

“作为母亲，江边那一小时曾让我很揪心”

袁江平坦言，自己也是一位母亲，“江边的那一个小时，曾让我很揪心。”

当时看到那个瘦弱的身影，第一反应就是“不正常”，因为孩子太小、时间太晚。在劝导过程中，女孩终于说出学习压力和同学关系中的困扰。女孩上车后，她坚持让女孩到家发信息，直到收到报平安短信才放下心来。

袁江平在路面上执勤，搀扶老人过马路。

“这就是一件很平常的事情。”袁江平说，平时在车管所办理业务时，也非常乐意解答问题和帮助群众解决困难，“不管多小的事情，能帮助到他人，都是让人开心的事情。”

Yuan, who is also a mother, said the incident had stayed with her. "That hour by the river worried me deeply," she said.

"It was just a small, ordinary act. In my work, I'm always happy to answer questions and help people. No matter how small the matter may seem, it's always rewarding to know you've made a difference."
