A few people wandered back to school in a daze and exhausted state. The dormitory had already been locked!
The few of us had to work together for a few hours on the small lawn in front of the dormitory area! After finally staying up until 5:30 in the morning, the iron door of the dormitory creaked open, and I quickly climbed in to catch up on my sleep! However, I didn’t sleep well. My mind was filled with Chiba Xionghei’s wide-open, vacant eyes and pale face... I just lay there in a daze, half asleep and half awake. On!
I wonder how long you have been confused? Maybe it took a long time, maybe it didn't take long... A phone rang, an inappropriate noise! I had a splitting headache, so I simply rolled up the pillow to cover my head and continued to turn a deaf ear. However, this phone seems to be much stronger and more annoying than I imagined. It keeps ringing persistently, and it seems that no one will answer it.
I could only turn over and get out of bed with my eyes narrowed and irritated, and I picked up the phone impatiently: "Hey, who are you? Are you annoyed?"
"Haha, am I bothering you? But, shouldn't you students always remember that your day's plan starts in the morning? It's already seven o'clock in the morning, so it's time to get up and read in the morning." The other end of the phone seemed to have a morning tone. A hearty voice like rain and dew came, making people feel all sleepy after listening to it.
I said, "Who are you? You think you are Confucius, and you take classes with everyone you meet."
The voice was still not angry and said: "Haha, I'm not Confucius, I'm a policeman!"
"Police? What's going on?"
"Oh... you forget very quickly! Are you so at ease with your friend's death last night? Don't you have any information to provide us?" Then I suddenly remembered that I was in the middle of nowhere. The things that came to my mind when I was half asleep were not dreams, but the fact that my lungs had been slashed - Chiba Xionghei, dead!
"Oh, I'm sorry!" I said, "I'm sorry, maybe my emotions were too stimulated yesterday and I haven't fully reacted yet. I'm sorry, police officer!"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Anyone who encounters such a thing will feel like you... Your condition is pretty good!" The policeman said, "So, now, are you awake?"
I smiled sheepishly and said, "Okay now, where can we meet? Do you need me to go to the police station?"
"No need, I'm already in the dormitory area of your school. Can you tell me which building you are in? Just what dormitory number you are in!" After informing me, I hung up the phone and started washing up! There was also a doubt in my heart: "Could the policeman who just called be the one from last night? If so, then he had been waiting by the pond all night, and he must have stayed up all night, but you could hear the voice on the phone just now , extremely active, not sleepy at all, it doesn't look like you stayed up all night." I thought in my mind, washing my hands, and just after finishing cleaning up, I returned to the dormitory, and the door opened like a gust of wind, and a A young man with a dark face and a slightly thin face walked in with great strides! He stood up in front of me and said loudly: "Hello, young man, I am the policeman in charge of this area, Ke Bei! This is my ID!"
I looked at him strangely and asked, "Can you, a small policeman in your area, also handle such criminal cases?"
Na Kebei didn't care about my question. He smiled generously and said, "Yes, this is what's special about me. I am both a father and a mother. How can I say that in our mountainous area, it's like an abandoned son? God It doesn’t matter whether you ask me or not, what? Do you have a question?”
I shook my head hurriedly and said, "No, no, I'm just asking! By the way, are you the same person as the policeman last night?"
Ke Bei laughed dumbly and said, "Ha, what do you think? Have I changed anything?"
I said, "No, I'm just a little surprised that you're still so energetic after staying up all night!"
Officer Ke Bei smiled and said, "Really? There is no way. There are fewer people and more things. If I didn't maintain such a high spirit, I probably wouldn't be able to continue doing it. Oh, by the way, I'll take your friend's body." We have already found someone to remove it early in the morning and will arrange for relevant forensic doctors to conduct an examination. You can rest assured! Afterwards, we will notify his family to come and identify the body!"
I said: "Thank you!"
Ke Bei said: "You're welcome, this is my job responsibility! Oh, by the way, I haven't asked you how to address me yet? Also, what was the relationship between the deceased and you during his lifetime?"
I said: "My name is Ishibashi Meng, a junior in the Department of Biology! The deceased's name was Chiba Xionghei. He was our friend during his lifetime. We belong to the same school dance association!"
"Oh, Meng Shiqiao? Then can you tell me in detail about your experience last night? For example, how did you find the deceased? How did you meet your other companions? Why did you appear at the crime scene at the same time? Wait... In short, the more detailed the better!"
I nodded, tried my best to recall every detail of what happened last night, and then told it in detail! Officer Ke Bei stared at me seriously during my narration and listened quietly without interrupting at all! To be honest, I kind of like this cop! Because in my impression, the police should be domineering and arrogant! At the very least, when questioning witnesses, he would be serious and talkative without restraint! However, this police officer Ke Bei seems to be a few years older than us. Although he seems to be upright and awe-inspiring, he still has the sunshine and kindness of young people!
He listened carefully to the story, nodded, and then continued to ask: "Brother Shiqiaomeng, can you tell me why you appeared on the edge of the cliff above the crime scene at noon yesterday? Was it because you were passing by or on purpose... …”
I was shocked and asked, "How do you know I went to the cliff at noon yesterday?"
Ke Bei smiled and said: "It seems that the stimulation you received is really not light! Brother Shiqiaomeng, this is actually the third time we meet today. The second time was last night. And the first time Last time, just yesterday at noon, you were standing by the cliff railing, and I, at that time, was standing by the pond under the cliff... By the way, it seems that you still saw me, right? "
After being reminded like this, I suddenly realized that the man I saw wandering around the crime scene at the foot of the cliff at noon yesterday was the policeman named Ke Bei opposite! However, he was wearing civilian clothes at that time, but now he is wearing a police uniform. No wonder I didn't recognize him for a moment? I was caught off guard by his question, and my mind was racing, thinking about how to respond!
I pretended to be calm and said: "Oh, you said yesterday at noon... Yesterday morning, when I was walking on campus, I overheard someone saying that a girl died under the cliff, so I was a little curious and just joining in the fun. , what? Is there any problem? "
The Kebei police officer was still smiling and stared at my eyes seriously while I was talking.
I was a little nervous when he saw me, because, after all, I lied to a policeman! So, I stood up and stretched deliberately to divert the attention of both parties!
I stretched and said, "Oh, I feel so sleepy! I really admire you, brother Ke Bei, for staying up all night and still being so energetic, haha... I admire you so much, haha!"
Ke Bei stood up, smiled and said to me: "Brother Shiqiao Meng, it is natural for people to be curious, but sometimes, curiosity must not be too strong..."
I smiled pretending to be confused, looked at his face and asked, "What do you mean?"
"Nothing else! Just a little advice!" Ke Bei said sincerely.
I nodded and said: "Thank you for the advice! By the way, I have just described to you my detailed experience last night in great detail. So, can I ask now how my friend Chiba Xionghei died? ?”
Ke Bei's smile suddenly faded, and he said seriously: "We can't be sure yet! Because so far, I have only collected your confession. Several companions who appeared at the crime scene with you yesterday , I may have to ask them one by one, and then combine it with the forensic autopsy report and signs on the scene before I can make a judgment! The deceased is your good friend, I will definitely give you an explanation, don't worry!"
I said: "Thank you, Brother Ke Bei! By the way, I will take you to the dormitories of some of my other friends now. They should all be in the dormitory now!"
Ke Bei waved his hand and said: "No, I have contacted all three of them in advance before coming here. I said I would go over to them in a while and ask some questions. They should be waiting for me now. .By the way, I really need your help with something!"
I said, "Just tell me!"
"Which dormitory does Chiba Xiongping live in?" Ke Bei asked.
I said: "It's not far, it's also in this dormitory area. I'll take you there!"
"Oh, no need, just tell me which dormitory building and which room, and I'll just go there myself! It is expected that in the afternoon, the police may have more accurate results on the cause of your friend's death, and I will inform you in time!"
I nodded and said, "Okay!"
After Officer Kebei left, I couldn't sleep anymore. He took out the mobile phone that he had taken from Chiba Xionghei last night from under the pillow and looked through it carefully!
"This is the latest fashionable mobile phone that has been on the market for less than a month. The purchase price is quite expensive. It seems that the owner of this mobile phone must have a very wealthy family! The earliest call record in the mobile phone is from this year. It was around noon on September 30th. It seemed that this mobile phone had not been purchased for more than a week! The memory card inside was clean, there were no photos, music, etc., and even the information box was empty..."
After looking around for a long time, other than admiring that this is a powerful new mobile phone, I didn't get any more useful information than last night! He lost interest, threw his phone on the table, and stared in silence. Judging from the mental state of Chiba Xionghei some time before his death, it did seem that he had collided with some evil things. However, based on the analysis of the several phone calls Chiba Xionghei made to us before his death, Chiba Xionghei said His death should rule out the possibility of "man-made killing". So, do ghosts and souls really exist in this world as Chiba Xionghei said? Could it be that my previous atheism was just wishful thinking? Then was Chiba Xionghei pushed off the cliff by the ghost he described? Or was it that the ghosts and evil spirits deceived the mind and jumped on one's own accord?
I don’t know what’s wrong with me these past two days. My head hurts every time I think about it. Now even my eyelids feel heavy... I simply climbed into bed and let nature take its course. Unknowingly, I fell asleep again...
