Through this round of conversations, Shen Xiao already has a general understanding of Zhang Xiaoyi. The vague fog in his heart gradually turned into an introverted, obedient, and father-fearful boy image.

He was carrying a schoolbag, and on the surface he looked calm, but in fact, his heart had already been crushed by fear and the last psychological line of defense.

Shen Xiao's words calmed Zhang Xiaoyi's father's emotions, and after he calmed down, Shen Xiao signaled to Officer Li: It's time to go.

Officer Li understood, so he took Shen Xiao to leave.

——

The two walked out of the residential building, carrying the dusty air in their faces.

Officer Li looked at Shen Xiao: "Teacher Shen, you talked so much with Xiaoyi's father just now, did you learn any new information?"

Shen Xiao lowered his eyelashes and hid the sad light in his eyes: "Probably...... Got it. ”

"Tell me?"

"Not ...... enough"

Shen Xiao raised his head and looked at Officer Li: "Officer Li, I still want to ask you to do me a favor, is it okay?"

"You say. ”

"I want to go to Xiao Yi's school. ”

"This ...... What are you going to do?"

"I want to look in Xiao Yi's desk, and maybe I can find the novels he wrote. ”

"Oh, do you want to see this?" Officer Li suddenly realized: "Then you don't have to go, you just come to the police station." ”

"Huh?" Shen Xiao was stunned: "Why do you want to go to the police station?"

"After the accident, we also went to Xiao Yi's school to investigate, and we took all the things in his drawer back to the police station. It's just that I haven't had time to get my family to take it back. ”

"That's great, please take me to see it right away!"

Shen Xiao's heart beat suddenly.

She had a hunch that the key to solving the incident was in these relics.

※

Officer Li immediately took Shen Xiao to the police station.

Although unrelated people should not be allowed to come into contact with the relics of the deceased, Officer Li judged that Shen Xiao was by no means an ordinary person with years of experience and intuition in criminal investigation, even if Zhang Xiaoyi's death had nothing to do with her, it would definitely not hurt to let her know more about this matter.

Officer Li also wanted to know whether Zhang Xiaoyi's death was really caused by the poisoning of games and the Internet, as Zhang Xiaoyi's father said.

He also wants to find out the truth about the child's death so that he can avoid a similar tragedy from happening again.

But this kind of thing can't be done with his knowledge. His knowledge and experience can only be used in criminal investigation, but in terms of understanding the psychology of children, these experiences are of little use.

Still have to let the professionals come.

Officer Li took out Zhang Xiaoyi's relics and placed them on the table.

Shen Xiao looked down and saw that there were not many relics in the plastic bag, except for two ballpoint pens with all the ink written, there was only a stack of homework books.

Shen Xiao opened the plastic bag, took out the stack of homework books, and looked through them carefully.

The homework book is densely filled with words:

▼▼▼

The Watcher

NE-Worden

This story is purely fictional and adapted from "Demon King"

Chapter 1 Prequel

▲▲▲

"It's written with a clear eye......" Shen Xiao muttered to himself.

Officer Li probed over to take a look, and sighed: "This kid can see that he is still very disciplined, but why does he have to go down such a dead end......

Shen Xiao did not answer.

She continued to look down.

When he saw the first paragraph of the article, Shen Xiao's heart hurt fiercely.

- I'm just a piece of trash.

- Senna ignored me, Zeus ignored me.

- I'm just a piece of trash.

Shen Xiao couldn't read it anymore, she suddenly closed Zhang Xiaoyi's homework book, and tears slowly slipped from her eyes.

She sobbed and gently put the homework book back on the table, so that her tears would not wet the child's relics.

Officer Li looked at her in surprise: "Teacher Shen, what's wrong with you?"

"Officer Li......" Shen Xiao raised his head and smiled bitterly at Officer Li: "I know why the child is looking for death." ”

Officer Lee's eyes widened.

※

The two came to Zhang Xiaoyi's house for the second time and rang the doorbell of Zhang Xiaoyi's house again.

After Zhang Xiaoyi's father opened the door, he couldn't help but be surprised to find that it was Officer Li and the psychological counselor again.

"What's the matter with the two of you?" he asked.

Officer Li said in a deep voice: "Xiao Yi's father, Mr. Shen has found the reason why Xiao Yi is really looking for death. ”

Zhang Xiaoyi's father's eyes were wider than copper bells.

Officer Li suddenly thought: Could it be that he also had this ghost-like expression just now?

——

Everyone sat down.

Still the same as before, Officer Li and Shen Xiao sat at the table, and Zhang Xiaoyi's parents sat at the other end of the table.

Zhang Xiaoyi's father was a little restless, and kept twisting his body in the chair, trying to adjust a comfortable sitting position, but he felt awkward no matter how he sits.

Zhang Xiaoyi's mother looked sad, and there was a vague look of horror in her eyes, looking both eager to hear the answer and afraid to hear the answer.

"Teacher Shen, you, you said that you found the reason for our son's death...... Really?"

"Well, I went to the police station to see the relics left by Xiao Yi, and I also communicated with Xiao Yi's classmates, and now I basically ...... It's all clear. ”

Shen Xiao's voice was low, but it was strangely a little fluctuating, which made people not really hear it.

Zhang Xiaoyi's father frowned: "Teacher Shen, what do you mean by this is that Xiao Yi didn't die because of the game, but he obviously died because of the game......

"Dad Xiaoyi, I want to ask you a question first. Shen Xiao interrupted Zhang Xiaoyi's father's questioning: "A normal person, will he go over and over again and keep doing something that makes him miserable?"

Zhang Xiaoyi's father was stunned, and subconsciously replied: "Of course not! It's all painful, how can you continue to do it?

"So do you think that Xiao Yi always runs to Internet cafes and always likes to play games, so is playing games happy or painful for him?"

"This ......" Zhang Xiaoyi's father's mouth opened: "It should be...... Happy it. Which child would be unhappy playing games......"

"If this kid is happy when he plays games, how can he kill himself?"

Shen Xiao said amazingly: "A happy person will not commit suicide." Only those who are in pain will close their eyes and jump and end their lives. ”

Officer Lee's eyes blinked and blinked, and there was an exclamation in his heart.

Shen Xiao said a blind spot that no one was aware of. She is right that children play games over and over again precisely because they are happy. If the game has made them happy people, how can they commit suicide?

Happy people don't commit suicide.

Only those who are in pain will commit suicide.

But the game will only make the child happy, not the child's pain, and if the child is miserable, the child will not play repeatedly.

That is to say - play is not the cause of a child's suicide.

The reason for the child's painful suicide is somewhere else.
