On June 25th, major schools across the country were busy with the final exams in the first half of the year.

For students, exams have become accustomed to it, endless test papers, unfinished homework, unfinished words, every exam is an ordeal, and for this final exam, more students still feel particularly relaxed and looking forward to it, because, as long as the final exam is over, it means that they don't have to sit in the classroom honestly every day, listening to the teacher on the podium who people love and hate, chattering endlessly, they can finally put down the pen in their hands and go out to play with their friends.

For teachers, the arrival of the final exam means that their education work this semester is over, and they can finally breathe a sigh of relief, no longer facing those headache bear children, they feel relaxed at the same time, there are also new worries, these bear children have no teacher's constraints, in the next two months of vacation time, will they play crazy and forget to study? If this is really the case, then, after the start of school, how to make them pay attention is another headache.

However, just when the teachers and students were preparing for the final exams, in the school that had been silent for a long time, a police car suddenly came in, and several uniformed police officers entered the principal's office directly.

Those students who were taking advantage of the ten-minute break after class to laugh and play outside, saw this scene and rushed to wonder, what happened in the school? How did Uncle Police end up here? Could it be that the headmaster, who seems to be old and disrespectful, has committed a crime? Or did the director, who always had a straight face, do something unseemly and was discovered by the police uncle? Some of the students who did not deal with the principal and the director of the management office began to speculate in their hearts.

"Jingle Bell ......."

When the class bell rang again, these curious students took a deep look, and behind the police car parked on the campus, they walked into the classroom, and received another bombardment from the teachers.

Not long after the police entered the principal's office, the homeroom teachers of all grades appeared in the office one after another, including the homeroom teachers who were teaching the students.

And these class teachers were all very puzzled, not knowing what was going on, and after seeing them, the police directly explained their intentions and asked them: "In the recent semester, are there any female students in their respective classes who have behaved abnormally, such as sudden absenteeism, or sudden suspension, or sudden transfer to school, or female students who behave differently from the past." ”

Hearing the police's questioning, these class teachers looked at each other, and they all saw the confusion and incomprehension in each other's eyes, they didn't know what the police were doing when they came to the school, and why they asked like this.

Seeing that the teachers did not speak, the policeman led by him subconsciously narrowed his eyes, and his sharp eyes swept over everyone's faces, and finally, he turned his head and looked at the principal.

The principal received a call from the Education Bureau this morning, and the leader asked them to cooperate with the police, as for what the specific work was, the leader did not say, but the police had just briefly said the matter, and the principal also knew that this matter was very important for the safety of the students, and there could be no negligence, so he called the homeroom teachers from the first grade to the sixth grade to the office to cooperate with the police investigation.

At this time, seeing the police looking at him, the principal coughed dryly, attracted all his eyes to himself, and then said: "That's the case, recently, there have been many cases against underage children in S City, especially teenage girls, and the police are also routine, you report the situation in your respective classes, if you have it, just say it, forget it." ”

Compared to this seemingly strange policeman who did not know what his position was, the principal was their leader, and his words were much more effective than those of the police.

So, after the principal spoke, the class teachers of each class began to report the situation, most of the class teachers shook their heads, saying that there was no such situation in their class, only a few class teachers, after some hesitation, reported the situation in the class.

These homeroom teachers are all fifth- and sixth-grade homeroom teachers, and the abnormalities they report are recorded by the police one by one, and for those things that have major suspicions, they will ask more questions, and even ask them to call the students who behave abnormally to the office for questioning.

This kind of thing is not only happening in this one school, but at the same time in each junior primary school, and the principals and teachers of each school have also received relevant notices before the police come, which makes them puzzled at the same time, but also have some worries, of course, this worry is mainly what is the work of the police coming to the school to let them cooperate?

————

The investigation is a very boring and boring thing, especially because they are still facing a group of children who are not deeply involved in the world, they can neither beat nor scold, and the usual set against criminal suspects cannot be used on them, which makes the investigation and visit work progress very slowly.

The order issued above is that before the students have a vacation, they must complete the visit to all the junior primary schools in their own jurisdiction, the time is tight, the task is heavy, and when the visit is carried out, those children who are found to be abnormal by the head teacher are not very cooperative in the face of police questioning, most of them are silent, or choked and sobbed, which makes the investigators feel very headache, and a sense of irritability in their hearts quietly breeds.

In CSY, Xu Lang did not sit in the office, but stayed in the office area, listening to the reports of the visits and investigations of the various police stations and public security bureaus under his subordinates.

As for the other members of CSY, they also went out one by one and participated in the investigation, among them, Ding Haoqiong and Luo Jiayan, directly based on the information left by the three victims who had filed a case before, but left S City, went to other cities to visit, wanting to find them and ask about the case.

Time always flies, and in the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

Less than half of the investigation was carried out, and in this short period of three days, the police found ten children who also suffered the same fate.

Some of these victims have transferred to other schools and gone to other schools, while some have stayed in their original schools, but their whole people have changed a lot, and some have been suspended from school, and even worse, they have left S City directly.

Of course, in addition to investigating some victims who did not report the crime, some other problems were also found, such as the teacher's abuse of children, such as corporal punishment of students, and the situation of the school charging fees arbitrarily.

Xu Lang and they didn't have time to care about these things, and of course, they didn't choose to turn a blind eye and ignore them, but fed back these problems to the relevant departments and handed them over to deal with them, while Xu Lang and they concentrated on investigating the rape ****** case.

As the investigation deepened, the victims appeared one by one, and when the police found the victims and their families, their reaction also caused new problems for the police investigation work.

Some family members of the victims, in the face of the arrival of the police for questioning, flatly denied that their children were raped by bad people, and even scolded the police; Only a few victims, when the police came to the door and questioned, chose to be silent or denied at first, but after some persuasion and enlightenment, they slowly told the truth.

As they recounted, one victim after another appeared, and those young victims, what had happened to them, gradually came to the surface.

Some victims were deceived because of their good intentions, and thus were raped by bad people; Some victims are just greedy for play or gluttony, and they easily follow the bad guys and leave, thus being hurt; Others are friends who are pretended to be parents by bad people, are easily taken away, and then have an accident.

Each victim is in a different situation, but they all end up the same and are all violated.

Seeing those evasive and frightened eyes, looking at their innocent smiling faces that no longer existed, all the investigators who participated in the visit were very uncomfortable.

When the police asked them why they did not choose to call the police after the child's accident, but chose to forbear, most of the parents' answers were surprisingly consistent.

"The child is still so young, something like this happened to her, if she reports to the police, everyone around her will definitely know, so how will she behave in the future? How can I get married and have children? What will others think of us and our children? ”

Yes, when the child has an accident, many people have also thought of calling the police and letting the police deal with the matter, but as soon as they think of calling the police, the police will file a case for investigation, and they will come to the door to visit and inquire, and once the police do this, the people they know around will soon know, and the daughter was raped by bad people, it will be known, and they will face the discussion of the people around them, as well as pointing fingers.

Their life is not easy, the pressure they are undergoing, the cynicism they face, and the discussion and guidance are enough, they don't want to be sad about their heart, being used as an after-dinner conversation, not to mention, their children are still so young, they need to grow up safely, if, at this time, it is revealed that their children are raped, which makes the children in front of classmates, teachers, and friends around how to deal with themselves, and they should be in front of relatives, friends, colleagues and neighbors?

As soon as they thought of this, they chose to be silent, and chose to rely on time to heal the wound in their hearts, although this wound was very deep, dripping with blood, and if they touched it slightly, blood would splash everywhere, but they still chose to remain silent and conceal it.

In addition to the parents who take these into account, there are also some extreme parents who bluntly told the investigator that they don't trust the police, in their opinion, the police deal with some trivial things every day, except for the positive ticketing, nothing else is proactive, and it is precisely because of this strong distrust that they did not choose to call the police.

After the children's accident, they all chose to leave more time for the children and pick up and drop off the children to and from school, and it was at this time that they realized how important the children were to them.

The progress of the investigation is slow, and because of the lack of cooperation of the victims and their families, this progress is even slower, but with the continuous investigation, various new cases and new victims appear one by one.

————

Five days later, June 30th.

After five days of investigation, almost 13 victims have been identified, and more than a dozen victims have not yet been identified, because their parents refused to cooperate with the police investigation, let alone allow the police to interview the victims alone.

As the results of the various investigations were summarized, Xu Lang's desk was already piled up with a thick pile of reports on the results of the investigation.

Judging from the current investigation, the earliest sexual assault case occurred in October last year, and the victim was an eleven-year-old girl, her parents were both working in other places, and only one grandmother took care of her, and after the child was violated, the grandmother, who was almost 70 years old, chose to remain silent in order to protect her granddaughter's reputation, and just told her parents about it, and her parents immediately quit their jobs and returned to S City from other places after knowing about it.

First, they transferred their children to another school, and then, they also moved, and in the end, they chose to forget about it, but it has happened, the obedient and sensible little girl in the past is no longer as cheerful and lively as before, the little girl became unusually silent, went to a new school, and was incompatible with the classmates around her.

She doesn't make friends, she doesn't want to talk to other children, her academic performance plummets, she often wanders in class, and after school, her parents don't come to pick her up, she doesn't dare to take a step out of school, and she won't leave until her parents come.

The head teacher once asked the little girl why this is so, but the little girl is silent or silent, and the head teacher finds her parents to ask about the situation, they are also concerned about the left and right, but they are not willing to answer this question positively, and the head teacher because there are many children in the class, and the children sometimes transfer students, he is not caring about anything, after all, the parents are not cooperative, they don't care, he doesn't want to do much, and he slowly gets used to it, so he chooses not to care, until the investigator goes to the school to find them, The head teacher then remembered the incident and told the investigator about it.

When the investigators found the girl's parents and grandmother, they initially denied it, but after the investigator's enlightenment and persuasion, the truth was revealed.

There are many similar cases, and the location of the occurrence is not in the same place as the school, and the schools where these accidents occurred almost cover many schools in S City.

Because the location of the incident is different, and the victim's family did not handle the case, and although the teachers found the student's abnormality, they did not know the truth and did not report to the police, and the police naturally did not know about it before, so naturally they would not file a case for investigation.

After such a long time, many clues and evidence left by the murderer on the child's body have long since disappeared, and the clothes worn by the victim at the time of the murder have already been thrown into the trash can, sent to the garbage recycling station, and burned.

With the in-depth investigation of the case, the increase in the number of victims, suddenly attracted the attention of the city leaders, but also aroused the provincial leaders and the relevant leaders of the Education Bureau of the great concern, and then, a thorough investigation of the case instructions have been issued, and before there were some school leaders and teachers did not cooperate, after the police reported these problems, these relevant leaders and teachers, immediately received severe punishment, the relevant leaders ordered all schools, to unconditionally cooperate with the work of the police.

With the orders of the superiors and the investigation work of the investigators, the tension went much smoother.

With the police in various junior primary schools to conduct a visit to investigate, soon, some well-informed, sensitive sense of smell of the media, immediately discovered these things, so, some media reported on the relevant cases, but also for the emergence of these news, the parents of each child, only then realized that in their side, such a terrible thing happened, moreover, many things happened in the school where their children attended.

Before, I heard my children go home and say that there were police officers who went to school, and also found some classmates to inquire about the situation, they didn't know what was going on, and they didn't care, now they saw the news, and after knowing these news, they felt scared, for a while, the school gate of each junior high school and primary school, every day to go to and from school, suddenly overcrowded, no matter how busy their work is, how important, they have to personally pick up and drop off their children to school, even if they have something temporary, can not get out, I will also ask a familiar friend to help pick up the child at the first time.

At the same time, the parents of the students kept telling their children not to go with strangers except for their families, and not to pick up strangers' things, and the teachers of the school also kept emphasizing this point in the classroom.
