Chapter 80: Grim Reaper's Notes
"Grim Reaper's Notes?" Wen Yiqian raised his eyebrows, "Why does this setting sound so familiar?" ”
He looked suspicious, "You shouldn't be fooling me with the plot of a certain anime, right?"
I'm old and two-dimensional, you can't fool me. ”
"Even if I want to lie to you, I won't lie to you with such nonsense about campus." Ding Rong looked helpless.
"Then you show me the so-called Grim Reaper's Notes." Wen Yiqian couldn't see any flaws on the other party's face, and said tentatively.
"Not on me, in our school library." Ding Rong pointed in the direction of the school library.
"Take me to see it."
……
The two went to the school library.
This is not a good time to calm down and read a book.
There are not many students in the library, and they are all quiet, with the only occasional sound of flipping books.
Ding Rong took Wen Yiqian to a bookshelf area with the sign of "Gods and Ghosts".
It's all kinds of weird and weird stories, gods and ghosts novels.
"That's the Grim Reaper's Notes you found here?" Wen Yiqian asked softly.
"At that time, I just found out about the dog man and woman, and I was in a depressed mood." Ding Rong shook her head, "I don't know where to go for a while, so I want to come to the library alone to be quiet." ”
She pointed to the reading area not far away, "When I got to the library, I just took a random book and sat there in a daze. ”
"And then?" Wen Yiqian said curiously.
"Then I don't know how long it was, and I accidentally found a notebook on the seat next to me." Ding Rong recalled a little, "I thought it was left by other students, and I didn't think much about it, but I thought that the appearance of the notebook was a little strange." ”
She paused, "Later, I stayed in the library until the evening, and no one came to look for this notebook.
So, I couldn't help but be curious, so I picked it up and flipped through it.
It clearly records the effect of this notebook, which is actually the legendary Grim Reaper Note of the school.
At that time, I hated Fan Xiaoliang to the core, so I tried it and wrote his name on it. ”
She slowed down, "Later, I never saw Fan Xiaoliang again." ”
"What about the so-called Grim Reaper's Notes?" Wen Yiqian asked.
"I'm hiding here." Ding Rong pointed to the bookshelf next to her, bent down and swept through them one by one, "The books here are the most unpopular, and no one usually borrows them." ”
Soon, she found a novel called "Ghost Spirits".
"This is it."
Ding Rong opened the book, her face changed slightly, and she said in surprise: "How can this be?" What about the Grim Reaper's Notes? ”
Wen Yiqian took the book and flipped it left and right twice.
If there is a notebook sandwiched between them, it should be very obvious and clear at a glance.
There's not even a slip of paper or anything like that.
"Are you sure you didn't lie to me?" Wen Yiqian's eyes were full of suspicion.
"If what I say is a lie, five thunders will hit the top, and I will not die well!" Ding Rong said with a serious face and a strong tone.
Wen Yiqian thought for a while, looked around, and asked, "Doesn't your library have a camera?"
"Our school is not a third-rate university, the quality of the students is very high, and there has never been a case of malicious damage to books in the library." "To prove their trust in the students, the university promised never to install cameras in the library. ”
"And this kind of operation?" Wen Yiqian felt a little headache.
Immediately, he took Ding Rong to find the librarian.
The administrator is a middle-aged man with glasses, a Chinese face, and a meticulous hairstyle, who looks like a very old-fashioned and square person.
Wen Yiqian reported his identity and asked if the book had been borrowed.
Soon the answer was no, and the borrowing record of the book was blank.
No one has borrowed it for at least a few years.
Plus there are no security cameras in the library at all.
Wen Yiqian was also confused for a while, unable to judge what Ding Rong said, whether the so-called Grim Reaper Note was true or false.
said that it was a fictitious thing, and Ding Rong said it conclusively, looking like it was true.
But I can't find any traces of this thing's existence.
At this time, the mobile phone in Wen Yiqian's pocket vibrate, and he took it out and took a look, it was a call from Li Weiguo.
After saying hello, he took his phone and went outside the library to answer the call.
Li Weiguo's phone call was mainly to tell him something.
The corpse in the garden was finally identified, and it was indeed that Fan Xiaoliang.
In this way, if it can't be proved that there is really a so-called Grim Reaper Note, the most suspicious person is Ding Rong.
Wen Yiqian stood outside the library and thought for a while, but he really didn't have a clue.
"Sure enough, I don't know how to investigate and reason at all, so I'm not suitable to be a detective at all." He returned to the library a little dejected.
looked around left and right, and didn't see Ding Rong's figure.
Wen Yiqian looked around the library with a little doubt on his face, but still found no trace of the other party.
"Excuse me, did you see where the girl who was with me just went?" He approached the librarian and asked.
The administrator pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and shook his head.
"Are there any other exits here?"
Wen Yiqian was standing outside the library just now, and if Ding Rong left from the main entrance, he would definitely be able to find out.
"Yes." The librarian nodded and led Wen Yiqian to the innermost part of the library.
There's a safe passage here, and it's surrounded by a mess of books that haven't had time to dispose of.
Wen Yiqian hurriedly stepped forward to open the door of the safe passage.
Behind is a dark promenade with only a faint light from emergency lights.
"Did Ding Rong escape from this passage?" His face was full of confusion.
took out his mobile phone and turned on the flashlight, subconsciously walked in, and shouted a few words inside, but unfortunately no one responded.
Doubts flashed through my mind.
Isn't the other party's escape equivalent to admitting that he was the murderer of Fan Xiaoliang?
In this case, why didn't Ding Rong admit it from the beginning?
Why do you have to make up a Grim Reaper's Notes? Isn't that an extra move?
Suddenly, Wen Yiqian paused and rubbed his fingers, which had obvious dust on them.
This was left when the door to the secure passage was just opened.
The doorknob was so dusty that apparently no one had opened it in a long time.
There seemed to be a few vague square marks on the ground at the door just now.
It was clear that the waste books had been piled on the ground for too long, and the dust had fallen around, and the marks left after the waste books were removed.
In other words, the pile of waste books has actually been blocked indiscriminately at the door of the safe passage, too lazy to deal with it.
It's just that a guy hurriedly moved away in order to convince Wen Yiqian that Ding Rong had left here.
Thinking of this, Wen Yiqian paused slightly, and his back was faintly cold.
The back passage door was kept open, and the light came in.
The shadow of the man standing in the doorway was stretched long on the ground......
