"I hope the students will cooperate with the police investigation." The teacher raised his voice.
She also saw something was wrong with the students. Four classmates had already had an accident. If they knew something, why didn't they say it quickly?
Still no one spoke. Silence was like a lock, shutting down the ability of all students to speak, as if whoever opened the lock would suffer misfortune.
Compared with Fu Bao outside, Yang Jian can observe the expressions of all students more closely. He also feels the same as Fu Bao. Every student in Class 1, Grade 3, may know something, or is he an accomplice?
After coming up with this guess, his eyes sharpened, and some students who secretly looked at him were immediately frightened and lowered their heads.
Yang Jian's scrutinizing eyes kept scanning the class, and his actions made the students more nervous and silent.
Fu Bao rubbed his chin, Yang Jian was playing psychological warfare. If anyone knew anything, it might be unbearable in this atmosphere...
"Li Tongxiang!" A student suddenly shouted.
After he called out the name, the male student, who put his head in his hands and buried his face on the desk, trembled.
"You fucking stand up!"
"It's all your fault. Now everyone is in trouble. Why?!"
"This time it's Fang Jingwen, who next time?" After the extreme silence, there was an unbearable explosion. The first student to jump out pointed at Li Tongxiang and shouted loudly, triggering a chain reaction.
Li Tongxiang still lowered his head, as if he could escape everything in this way, but now all the students' eyes were focused on him, and everyone was angry and confused.
"What on earth did you do? Tell me, aren't you usually very arrogant? Why don't you dare to say a word now!" A female student slammed the table angrily.
Finally, Li Tongxiang raised his head tremblingly. After briefly looking into each other's eyes, various complex emotions appeared in his eyes. Finally, he shouted "Ah", stood up suddenly, knocked over his chair, and ran out of the back door.
"Bang." The chair fell to the ground, making a huge noise, which also caused the commotion in the classroom to subside.
Fu Bao did not step forward to stop Li Tongxiang. He stared at the other person's back thoughtfully, narrowed his eyes, and vaguely saw a dark shadow covering the student's body.
"Huh...it's so cold." The wind was quite strong in the high-rise building. Although he was wearing a thick coat, He Xiaohe still shivered.
"Is it cold..." Fu Bao looked steadily at the direction Li Tongxiang was leaving.
After Li Tongxiang ran away, Yang Jian called the student who stood up to accuse Li Tongxiang outside the classroom, and Fu Bao and He Xiaohe also came over.
"What do you know about Fang Jingwen's death? Why do you want to question Li Tongxiang?" Yang Jian asked after taking the person far away from the classroom.
"Li Tongxiang and the others must have done something, otherwise it would be such a coincidence that all of them were the ones who died." The male student snorted.
"What do you mean?" He Xiaohe interrupted curiously.
The male student glanced at He Xiaohe. Is this baby-faced girl also a criminal police officer?
It doesn’t look like it…
Seeing his hesitation, Yang Jian took the initiative to introduce him, "This is the detective who assisted the police in handling the case, and his assistant."
Only then did the male student notice Fu Bao standing nearby. Seeing his handsome face, he couldn't help but blurted out in surprise, "Wow, is there such a handsome detective?"
"You mean, the four deceased, including Fang Jingwen, were good friends with Li Tongxiang?" Fu Bao then spoke.
"Who knows if they are good friends, anyway, they often hang out together." The male student's response was a bit rude, but both Fu Bao and Yang Jian could see that he was actually nervous.
"How many people are there in their group?" Fu Bao was concerned about this question.
"Just... anyway, there are just a few people mixed together. They and I are not in the same department, and I don't know." The male student said angrily.
"Then what are you excited about? Since they are the ones who died, it has nothing to do with you, right?" Fu Bao asked coldly.
He knew that this student knew more than that, it was just that he was afraid, and he had to know what he was afraid of.
"What exactly do you know? If you don't say anything, more people may die. It's hard to say who will be next." Seeing this, Yang Jian pressed further.
"Because Fang Jingwen is not related to them, but now that Fang Jingwen is dead, something might happen to us, so I'm so nervous, okay? Okay!" the male student yelled in collapse.
"Then do you know about curse letters?" Fu Bao suddenly asked.
Hearing this, the male student's eyes widened and he turned around, looking very panicked.
"If you know anything, say it, otherwise it may be considered as obstructing the police's handling of the case." Yang Jian threatened slightly.
Seeing the male student shaking as if he was about to have a stroke, three black lines appeared on He Xiaohe's head.
Hey, hey, hey, can you also worry about his young age?
Why interrogate a high school senior as a prisoner?
"I overheard that before the accident, Lu Feng went to Li Tongxiang in private to tell Li Tongxiang that he had received a curse letter, and the two of them had a dispute. Anyway, it seemed that they had to forward the letter to others to avoid being cursed, but I haven't read the letter...and I don't want to see it!
"I don't know if the others died because they received the letter, but it was obviously their group that got into trouble. Why did Fang Jingwen get into trouble too? Could it be that everyone in our class died?"
The male student grabbed Yang Jian's arm excitedly.
Through the data he had seen before, Fu Bao knew that Lu Feng was the third deceased, the one who died in the swimming pool.
At this time, Yang Jian looked at Fu Bao, who nodded slightly.
This student should only know this much. The next thing they have to do is to determine whether death is spread through curse letters, who sent the curse letters, and what Li Tongxiang knows.
After letting the male students return to the classroom, Yang Jian and Fu Bao looked at each other and nodded in understanding. He Xiaohe looked left and right, not understanding what they wanted to do.
"Let's go to the other two death scenes." Fu Bao said and walked away, and He Xiaohe quickly followed. Yang Jian also followed, "Hey, Ah Wu, do you know where the school restaurant is? I'll lead the way..."
…
After telling the school that they wanted to see the scene of the accident, the school originally planned to arrange for teachers to take them there. However, since these cases were related to supernatural beings, in order to avoid side effects, they decided to go alone.
The second deceased died in the student cafeteria. The student cafeteria was equipped with surveillance video equipment. The police have collected evidence and the intercepted photos are in the file Yang Jian brought. Therefore, by comparing the photos, the scene can be roughly restored.
"Right here." Yang Jian stood at a dining table.
It's not meal time, so the student cafeteria is empty.
Yang Jian pointed to the dining table and said: "The deceased was sitting here, eating ramen..."
Fu Bao and He Xiaohe stood aside and compared the photos in their hands.
The incident happened half a month ago, at six o'clock in the evening, which was the peak meal time. Since it is a boarding school, many students come to the restaurant to eat.
The deceased ordered a large bowl of ramen and found a remote corner to sit down. Instead of picking up the chopsticks, he buried his head in the huge bowl. From the photo, it can be seen that the deceased buried his head to drink the soup. After that, he never lifted it up again. During the whole process, the deceased made no struggle or other movements at all.
This is very strange. Whether it is suicide or being murdered, people will react instinctively when choking on water. However, the deceased did not have any reaction at all. In addition, he was sitting in a relatively unoccupied position, so the students around him did not notice that something was wrong with him. It wasn't until ten minutes later that someone noticed that he was acting strangely, and when they came over to check, it was already too late.
"...Are you hypnotized?" He Xiaohe murmured.
How easy is it to achieve such a level of hypnosis without struggling even when people are on the verge of death?
If he had to say it, he felt that this figure was controlled by something, maybe... a ghost.
He pointed to one of the photos and said, "Look at these people." That photo showed the students in a mess after the deceased was found dead. Several of them were particularly close. Fu Bao recognized one of them as Li Tongxiang.
