Chapter 146: Sharp accusations
Cao Wuxian's words seemed to be interrogative, but the tone was not like that at all, but full of commanding tone. I swallowed secretly to stabilize my mind: "Okay, you ask." ”
"Let's talk about your relationship with 037 first."
I shrugged my shoulders and made a nonchalant look: "It's not good, it's not too bad." From the first day I was in camp, she didn't want to pay attention to me, and she still does. ”
"Have there ever been any arguments, such as verbal altercations or physical collisions?"
"Nope."
Xu Xiangqing, who had been silent on the side, suddenly spoke, her eyes were sharp, as if a cold and sharp eye knife brush was shooting at me, which made my heart sink for no reason. "But what I've heard is very different from what you said," she said. It is said that not long ago, you were punished for failing to perform in training, along with your fellow trainees. Later, No. 037 was very hostile to you because of this incident, and once pushed you to the ground during the argument, and these students present can testify. ”
Her words seemed to be the sharpest accusation, and I could feel the gaze locked on my face like a spotlight: "Well, I don't know who pushed me at the time, I guess maybe someone accidentally hit me, so I don't hold a grudge against 037 because of this." ”
Xu Xiangqing had a smile on her face: "Okay, then we will understand that you are broad-minded and don't care." So, I would like to ask you why you don't go back to your dorm every night after training until the lights go out. No. 037 has reported to me several times that you don't return home at night, do you have anything to defend as a party? ”
My heart sank, Xu Xiangqing's accusation was something I didn't expect. Although the matter of secretly training at night is not a bad thing, I don't know if it will affect Cao Wuxian because of this. In the same way, if you don't return at night, it can be big or small, and it usually seems that a few words of reprimand are enough, but when you encounter a three-hall trial like today, it is a big deal. I hesitated, but I couldn't open my mouth.
Cao Wuxian was about to vomit blood at my poor performance, so he opened his mouth to relieve me: "Major Xu, it seems that you have misunderstood this matter. Number 098 was recommended by me, but she's terrible in grappling these days. I just had time to do a favor, and opened a small stove for her after the end of the daily training session, since she never left the training camp, it is not considered that she will not return home overnight, right? And since this matter was raised by 037 and you alone, and he did not confront 098 face to face, then it can't be considered a feud between the two, is it? ”
Xu Xiangqing was choked by Cao Wuxian and couldn't speak, so she could only give up: "Okay, since there is Principal Cao as a guarantee, I naturally believe it." ”
Cao Wuxian cleared his throat and turned his face to me again: "Then No. 098, please answer me without any concealment, where were you when No. 037 was injured?" What are you doing? ”
Cao Wuxian's reassuring eyes calmed my heart on the verge of collapse a little, and I sorted out my chaotic thoughts: "There is a special test today, and my classmates and I got up at six o'clock, and I was washing up at that time, and there is a distance between me and No. 037." Many of the students who were there at that time were able to testify for me, and I think it will not be difficult for you to corroborate it with a little investigation."
"So you don't know what happened to her at that time."
"When I heard the voice, she was already injured and fell to the ground, I saw that everyone was a little flustered, and no one went to bandage her wounds, so I just passed."
The subtle expression on Cao Wuxian's face proved that he was slightly relieved, and he turned his face to the middle-aged man I didn't know: "Director Chen, do you think there is anything else that needs to be asked?" ”
Director Chen's face was unfathomable, and he looked at me fixedly for a long time before he said with a smile on his face: "Since 098 was recommended by President Cao, I believe that it will not be a murderer." There are so many students to be interrogated today, so let's replace the next one. ”
I came out of the interrogation room as if I had been pardoned, and on the way I met Lulu with a loveless face, and I wanted to cheer her up, but when the words came to my lips, I was blocked by Xu Xiangqing's eyes. I secretly complained in my heart, it seems that if I can't find a reason today, I guess the future will be even more difficult. But who would be so stupid and thankless to have to kill people in a dormitory building, wouldn't it be causing trouble for themselves.
The special test of the day was naturally not held as scheduled, and everyone was related to the 037 incident, plus the murderer was not caught, no one could escape the involvement, and the mood naturally went to the bottom.
Christina, who was the last to be asked for questioning, returned to the dormitory, and her whole person looked extremely heavy: "They said that no matter who is the murderer in the final determination this time, it is certain that this person must be an undercover agent of the Japanese, and the plan for so long is to sabotage our overall plan and clear the way for the Japanese special high-tech department." ”
I couldn't help but gasp: "Japanese? No wonder they are so ruthless, if only they could make sense. ”
Christina nodded solemnly: "Indeed, it seems that the Japanese know that we are deliberately dealing with us for a day or two, and they will not act rashly if they are not sure enough." The immediate task is to find out whether the list of training camp graduates has fallen into the hands of the Japanese, and if their identities are revealed, it will be a catastrophe for the entire hidden front. ”
Her words seemed to be enlightened, and many scattered thoughts in her mind gradually pieced together, it turned out that the Japanese coveted the undercover list, and they always seemed to have a clear purpose. As for why it was chosen today, it is actually very clear, that is, after today, this Japanese spy may never have a chance to do it again. It occurred to me that the most important thing for the day was the special test. The reason the Japanese were so scared was because their spies might leave the camp because of a successful assessment, and their entire plan would be ruined. As a result, the scope of the suspect's target has been narrowed to a very small one.
I couldn't help but get a little excited: "Christina, Lulu, do you know who will be able to pass this special test?" As long as 037 is eliminated, the murderer must be hidden in the rest of the people. You said I should go to Principal Cao, maybe our findings will help him. ”
Christina was calmly frightened: "What we can find, how can Principal Cao not know, he must have found out in much more detail than us." Also, who says that number 037 is a victim and must be excluded? ”
Christina's words were like a bolt from the sky, and it made me feel like I was empowered. Our thinking has always been limited to the theory that victims are harmless, but we have never thought that there are more possibilities. My voice trembled slightly from shock: "Could it be that No. 037's injury was caused by himself, and the thief shouted to catch the thief?" But have you ever wondered how she managed to achieve such a serious injury and such a big movement that the murder weapon has not been found so far? ”
