Chapter 289: Smile and Wither
Although Jennifer said something that was not so pleasant, except for her, the three of Barry had a good meal.
After all, as the old saying goes, the sky is big, and the food is the biggest.
Since Marcus and Morgan still have classes in the afternoon, even if they are curious, they can't skip class to accompany Barry to investigate, not to mention that they may encounter danger.
Barry was going to go alone, but he didn't know the exact location of the school or the rooftop where the incident took place.
So despite Jennifer's repeated pleas, Barry took her with him.
After all, there is an acquaintance who is easy to do, and even if he encounters danger, Barry is confident that he can save the other party.
Jennifer's school is a public school, called Bauhinia Middle School, located in Nancheng District, is an ancient school with a history of nearly 50 years.
Since it was too time-consuming to walk through the road with Jennifer, and the scholarship had just been handed out today, Barry called a carriage to carry them over.
Today I'm not short of money .jpg Barry
The carriage quickly sent them to their destination, expecting to arrive at the scene soon and looking for clues to solve the case, but they didn't expect to start with a problem.
"This school is on vacation for the past few days, and none of you can enter it..."The guard uncle simply stopped Barry and them at the door.
"I'm a student at this school, I forgot some information in the classroom, I want to go in and get it, and I'll be out soon..."Jennifer pretended to be in a hurry, trying to trick the doorman into letting her in.
"No, I said that I can't go in, I just can't go in..." Even if the girls in front of them were about to burst into tears, the doorman still didn't let them in, very principled.
Barry also took out his sheriff's ID later, but the other party obviously didn't know the goods, and saw that Barry was too young to believe in this set at all.
"No one can go in unless the school leader speaks..."
Seeing the rigid appearance of the doorman, Barry also gave up the idea of entering through the gate, so he would not call the security bureau for this small matter!
Barry just wouldn't be bored to this extent.
So he motioned for Jennifer to come with him, and the two of them came to a remote fence, which was not very high, but about two meters.
After all, everyone understands that the fence can't prevent people with intentions, and it's okay to be a show.
Jennifer also understood that Barry wanted to flip over, so she was going to find a place on the wall where she could borrow strength, and planned to step on it.
However, when she found a force point, she was about to tell Barry to climb over here, but when she turned around, she couldn't see Barry's figure.
"I'm here."
Suddenly, she heard Barry's voice coming from above, and when she looked up, she saw that Barry was already sitting on the wall, and she didn't know when she had gone up.
Barry handed her hand down, and Jennifer jumped up and grabbed Barry's hand without twisting it, and the latter pulled her up with a quick effort.
After briefly climbing over the wall, Barry and the others walked a little further inside, avoiding the guards who might be patrolling.
"I originally came here to help them solve the problem, but I didn't expect to sneak like a thief now." Barry walked up the stairs, still free to make quips.
"It's the rooftop of this building, are you sure?"
Although the school has a history, it is generally not bad, with five or six buildings as a whole, and generally four or five stories high.
Barry was afraid that Jennifer would remember the wrong location, so he asked again.
"That's right, this is the building." Jennifer replied in the affirmative.
Although this is not the teaching building where her class is located, she has been here a few times to find this senior sister because of club activities, so she remembers it clearly.
Although he had not yet arrived at the scene of the incident, Barry had already activated his tracking skills at this time, wanting to see if there was any abnormal aura here.
But unfortunately, he didn't find anything, all that remained on the stairs was the white aura of ordinary people, and it was very mixed, plus no one had passed by in the past two days, and the aura had become very weak.
Since he didn't find any clues, Barry put away his skills, after all, it's still quite laborious to keep it on, so let's use it in key places!
"The door to the rooftop is locked, and I can't open it."
Jennifer came to the rooftop door, saw the newly changed lock on it, and turned back to Barry.
On the door is a very large lock, at least a pound in weight, the lock post on it has the thickness of a person's little finger, and ordinary people without technology will never be able to open it.
Although Barry doesn't have lockpicking skills, he is not an ordinary person, he took out the [Lava Blade] from the [Glutton], carefully slashed it with the blade, and the entire lock was broken into two sections.
Although he can break it with his hands alone, it is too rough, too unforced, and it takes a lot of effort.
That method is not desirable to smart people.
Jennifer tried to remove the remaining lock with her hands, but Barry stopped her.
Just kidding, the [Lava Blade] is not only sharp, it has its own high temperature on it, and if you really touch the iron lock that it has just cut, your hand will be burned directly.
Barry touched it himself, after all, his ability to manipulate the flames allowed him to avoid the damage of the heat.
Push open the door and enter the rooftop.
The entire rooftop seemed empty, except for the blockade around it, the human traces painted on the ground, and the remaining bloodstains, everything else was empty.
Jennifer pointed to the traces on the ground and said: "The senior sister committed suicide here at that time, and the corpse is the posture on the ground, and the other girl and the senior sister committed suicide in the same posture." ”
Barry reopens his tracking skills and tries to find clues from the scene.
When his spiritual height hit, everything on the rooftop seemed to be understood by him, and nothing could escape his eyes.
He looked at the remaining traces on the ground, although the body was no longer there, but according to the location of the blood spilled, his mind could restore the scene at that time.
"The young girl, smiling, stuck a fruit knife into her chest, and as the blood burst out, she gradually fell to the ground weakly."
"As the blood passed, her body began to gradually become cold, and finally with boundless longing, she died contentedly, without even a trace of resentment..."
"Different girls, same poses, same smiles, in the same place."
Barry shook his head violently, banishing the fantasy from his mind.
"It's a bit unbelievable that I could think of them smiling and committing suicide just now."
As long as he is a normal person, he can't smile when facing death.
The unknown is the greatest fear.
And death is the biggest unknown for ordinary people.
Even transcendents like Barry don't know what it will be like when they die, and they die with fear.
