The two boys who were stopped by the housekeeper, one was dark and thin, the other was fair, neither of them was short, after the two were stopped, they stood at the door of the housekeeper's room with a surprised face, looking at Dai Xu and Fang Yuan who came out of the house with a little curiosity, guessing their identities and intentions.

"You two are Ke Xiaowen's roommates, right?" Dai Xu smiled at them, lest the two boys be too nervous, "Yesterday, Ke Xiaowen didn't go back to the dormitory at night, nor did he go home, and he didn't ask for leave and didn't come to class today, so his parents asked us to help come over to find out the situation, is it inconvenient for you to take us to the dormitory to have a look?" We would like to take a look at Ke Xiaowen's personal belongings. ”

"Ah, okay, then you come up with us!" The black and thin boy opened his mouth first, with a big grin, and the white and clean man next to him didn't say a word, but just looked at Dai Xu and Fang Yuan a few more times.

The housekeeper teacher whispered to Fang Yuan in the back: "The black-looking one is called Yang Fan, a well-known naughty bag, and I am also a registered person here, and the other one named Xu Yongheng is a child who studies hard, but because they have two more skinny ones in the dormitory, he is the head of the dormitory, so I know him." ”

Fang Yuan nodded at him, followed behind Dai Xu, and went upstairs with the two boys. Ke Xiaowen's dormitory was on the third floor, and the four of them went upstairs and met a lot of students who came in and out, although those students didn't all know Yang Fan and Xu Yongheng, but seeing an adult like Dai Xu, and a girl like Fang Yuan following them into the boys' dormitory, they were still generally taken aback, and couldn't help but look secretly. Whispered discussions.

Fang Yuan was a little uncomfortable being stared at by them, and at first he still lowered his head and silently followed behind Dai Xu. Until a boy passed by her and suddenly leaned back in surprise. shouted: "There is a girl in the building!" ”

This low cry suddenly brought a lot of attention to Fang Yuan, Fang Yuan couldn't help frowning, and raised his head to glare at the little boys who were secretly watching him, although some of those boys were naughty, but after all, they were still high school students, they were not very old, and their courage was limited, most of them were also out of curiosity. That's why he ran to probe his brain, and when he was swept over by Fang Yuan, they all shrank back, embarrassed to continue looking.

Finally reached the third floor, and the four of them came to the door of the bedroom near the end of the corridor, which was relatively close to the hot water room, Xu Yongheng took out the key to open the door, and Yang Fan stood behind, while pinching out a string of baked gluten. I took a breath and bit it into my mouth, chewing with my cheeks, and asked vaguely, "What are you two doing?" Relatives of Ke Xiaowen's family, hey. I heard that his parents were divorced, and his father was busy with business, so he didn't care about him. His stepmother doesn't hurt him either, is it true? Then why did he skip class and run away from home. His mom and dad aren't here yet? ”

Sure enough, it's not just people of any age, and it doesn't matter whether the gender is male or female. The gossip heart is equally vigorous, but although the so-called "hearsay" that Yang Fan said is indeed the truth, it seems that Ke Xiaowen did not deliberately mention his own situation to the people around him at school, although it is said that Ke Xiaowen has had an accident now, but Dai Xu and Fang Yuan still instinctively want to respect his choice, so they don't plan to give Yang Fan any positive response on this issue.

"We belong to the Public Security Bureau." Fang Yuan kept a straight face, she was a little annoyed that she was too young and had a baby face, so she didn't have the slightest deterrent power among the students who were a few years younger than herself, and she still minded a little, so this time, she didn't wait for Dai Xu to take out her documents to show them like before, her documents had already been sent to her, she was embarrassed to take them out before, because she was relatively young, Dai Xu showed his documents, the effect would be better, but this time, anyway, she had to explain her identity, She suddenly had an urge not to be underestimated, so she took the initiative to take out the documents and showed them to Yang Fan.

Yang Fan didn't expect that they would be policemen, just some relative of Ke Xiaowen's family, as soon as he saw Fang Yuan take out his police officer card, he was also startled, shrunk his neck, and smiled: "Ah, it's a policeman!" ”

Xu Yongheng, who was opening the door, couldn't help but look back at Fang Yuan and Dai Xu more, after the two boys knew their identities, they seemed to be obviously more restrained, or strictly speaking, it should be Yang Fan who was a little more restrained, Xu Yongheng didn't say a word from beginning to end, but after knowing that they were policemen, they seemed to be a little more restrained than before.

Fang Yuan's heart was slightly relieved, his eyes glanced at it, and he just saw that Dai Xu was also looking at him, the corners of his mouth were smiling, as if he had seen through her little abacus of self-esteem, which made Fang Yuan couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, but then he also felt that his actions just now were really a little naïve, and he couldn't help but feel a little like laughing, so he had to clear his throat and suppress the smile that had just popped up.

Xu Yongheng opened the door, the four of them entered the dormitory, the light switch in the bedroom was at the door, Yang Fan stretched out his hand to turn on the light, Fang Yuan and Dai Xu saw the furnishings in the room clearly.

Although this is a key high school, but in all fairness, the school in the dormitory does not really do any decent planning and investment, this is an eight-person dormitory, the space is not only not spacious, even a little cramped, there is a row of utility cabinets against the wall next to the door, the space is not large, the radius counts, one person is just a small iron cabinet, there are not too many things in it, opposite the iron cabinet is the basin rack, on which are placed several colorful basins, as well as tooth cups and toothbrushes and other toiletries, and further on, is the left two, Two on the right, two by two opposite four groups of iron frame bunks, the innermost bed is tightly against the wall, the middle of the bed on both sides is almost only more than a meter wide spacing, it is estimated that these boys standing on one side of the bed, can stride to the opposite bunk.

There are also a lot of things stuffed under the four sets of iron frame beds, which are probably personal items that cannot be stored in the iron cabinet, and there are many pairs of dirty sneakers, but fortunately, the weather is cold, and there is no special smell in the room.

"Which is Ke Xiaowen's bed?" Fang Yuan asked Yang Fan.

It's not that she likes to talk to Yang Fan, but Xu Yongheng entered the bedroom. He walked to his own lower bunk by the window, took off his shoes and sat cross-legged on the bed. I turned on the bedside lamp and began to look at the teaching guide book carefully. That posture was clearly "idlers do not disturb", but Yang Fan was very curious about the fact that Ke Xiaowen did not return overnight and the police actually came forward to understand the situation, so while nibbling on the roasted steamed bun slices, he followed Dai Xu and Fang Yuan curiously.

Yang Fan was asked by Fang Yuan, and immediately took the posture of leading the way as an interpreter, smiled slightly complimentarily and a little flatteringly, and stretched out his hand. Hunched over to the opposite side of Xu Yongheng's bed, and pointed to the top bunk: "This is!" ”

Dai Xu is tall, standing on the ground can easily see everything on the top bunk, although Fang Yuan can also see it, but if he wants to see everything clearly, he also needs to stand on tiptoe, in front of the two little boys, she is also a little embarrassed to stand on tiptoe. So I had to go and look at Ke Xiaowen's locker instead.

Ke Xiaowen's bed, when he left the day before, it was estimated that he was in a bit of a hurry during the day, the quilt was not folded at all, and there were some teaching aids and other things piled up next to the pillow. Dai Xu picked it up and flipped through it, there was nothing special, just a lot of exercises and notes. There are also some densely written calculus papers, which can be seen. Ke Xiaowen is indeed working very the other side of his pillow. There is also a strong flashlight and a row of batteries, and it is estimated that he usually lies on the bed with a flashlight to read books and do exercises at night.

"Dai Xu, come on." When Dai Xu withdrew his gaze from the bed, just as Fang Yuan was calling him over there, he immediately turned around and walked over, Yang Fan was leaning against the door and standing at the door of the bedroom to watch the excitement, Fang Yuan was standing in front of Ke Xiaowen's locker, already wearing gloves, holding a black thing in his hand.

Dai Xu walked over and took a look, the black thing was actually a wooden man, about the length of a palm, the carving can be said to be very rough, the left and right arms are not the same length, the two legs are not the same thick, the surface is dirty, it seems to have rubbed a lot of dust, but it is still smooth, I don't know if it is a long time, or it has been repeatedly polished with sandpaper and other things.

What catches the eye is the wooden man's face.

This little wooden man, there are no facial features in the strict sense at all, used to distinguish the front and back, there is only a pair of eyes, said to be eyes, but it is also a little reluctant, because it is just two small holes, with nails and other things can be dug out, I don't know whether it is red paint or other red paint, red and gorgeous, but quite eye-catching, people can see at a glance, and impressive.

But on the whole, there was nothing special about such a rough little wooden man, there must be a reason why Fang Yuan could carefully put on gloves before picking it up, and deliberately calling himself over.

Dai Xu looked at Fang Yuan with an inquiring gaze, Fang Yuan pointed to Ke Xiaowen's locker, and said, "When I opened the locker, this wooden man was placed in it upright, placed in a very eye-catching position, and judging from the other things in the locker, the existence of this wooden man seemed to be a little abrupt. ”

Dai Xu followed her words and set his eyes on the inside of the locker. Ke Xiaowen's things are really very simple, not only do they not have too many sundries at home, but they are the same at school, the space in the locker is not large, but it seems to be relatively empty inside, and a few clothes are stacked outside the lower layer, and the upper layer is basically some books and scrolls and other things, without any extracurricular leisure and entertainment items. And the most important thing is that Ke Xiaowen's things are clean and neatly placed, but the little wooden man, the surface is dirty, and the original wood color can hardly be seen, which does look a little abrupt.

"This little wooden man, do you know where Ke Xiaowen got it?" Fang Yuan turned his head and asked Yang Fan.

Yang Fan shrugged: "I don't know, I didn't know he had such a thing in his hand." ”

"I know." Fang Cai didn't speak all the time, and he kept ignoring Dai Xu and Fang Yuan's Xu Yongheng, but at this time, he suddenly opened his mouth on the side, "That wooden man, he picked it up from the class." ”

"What does it mean to pick it up from the class? Can you elaborate on that? Unexpectedly, this taciturn boy was actually an insider, Fang Yuan hurriedly asked.

Xu Yongheng looked up at her expressionlessly, and said in a flat tone: "I don't know specifically, when he brought it back, when I heard others ask him, he said so, saying that he didn't know who stuffed it in his schoolbag, and he only saw it after he came back from evening self-study, so he put it in the cabinet casually." ”

"How is your relationship with Ke Xiaowen usually? Is it cooked? Dai Xu looked at Xu Yongheng, his bed was diagonally opposite Ke Xiaowen's, and now he knew more about the wooden people than Yang Fan.

"I'm not familiar with him, don't ask me about him, I don't have time to care." Xu Yongheng was asked by Dai Xu, raised his eyes to look at him a little coldly, and then lowered his eyes to continue to read the textbook in his hand, looking like he didn't want to be disturbed anymore and didn't want to speak.

Dai Xu didn't force him, and he didn't react to this attitude, but Yang Fan was on the side, secretly pouting, Fang Yuan caught his flashing expression, but he didn't say anything.

Dai Xu took out an evidence bag from his pocket, put the wooden man in it, handed it to Fang Yuan, and reached into Ke Xiaowen's locker and flipped through it, and soon found a soft-sided copy in a large stack of teaching supplementary books, this soft-sided copy was ordinary on the surface, and there was no difference between the notebook used for taking notes, but it was uncharacteristically not placed in order from large to small, but was stuffed in the middle of several thick and heavy exercise books, Dai Xu took out the book and flipped through it casually, Then he took out another evidence bag and put the notebook in it.

Fang Yuan could see it clearly from the side, the little soft-faced copy that was not good-looking, it seemed that Ke Xiaowen used it to write a diary, but how Dai Xu could pick it out of such a stack of books by flipping through it casually made her feel a little curious.

seemed to feel the question in her eyes, and it was inconvenient for Dai Xu to talk about it in front of Yang Fan, so he just smiled and said softly to Fang Yuan: "Thank you Zhong Han for this, if you have a friend with obsessive-compulsive disorder like him, you will easily find out the clues."
