Sure enough, Wang Tang's face changed. "Why are you asking this?"

"Director Wang, we asked, naturally we have a reason, please forgive us for not being able to tell you, but this matter is very important to us. I know that you were in your junior year at this university five years ago, and you are a student leader, so you don't know what happened at the school. ”

Wang Tang was silent, I looked at Xiao Zhi, and Xiao Zhi said smartly, "Director Wang, if you really don't know, it doesn't matter, we can go to the student union to inquire." ”

Wang Tang still doesn't speak.?

"Director Wang, what's wrong with you?" Alan Ming was concerned and secretly urged.

"Since Director Wang doesn't know, then we won't trouble you, let's go first." After saying that, I hinted to Xiao Zhi and Alain, get up and leave.

Sure enough, before we left the table, Wang Tang spoke, and in one sentence, the stone was shattered, "That year, the person who died was my girlfriend." ”

This sentence stopped us from wanting to go.

I didn't expect Wang Tang to admit so readily, perhaps, we are almost waiting for the moon to dawn.

"I don't know why you want to know, for so many years, I thought I could suppress it, but when you asked, I realized that the past that is hidden so deeply will also hurt."

We sat quietly and listened to the other facts from Wang Tang's mouth.

"She is a very beautiful girl, but, because she is beautiful, she has also developed her proud character, at that time, we are the golden boy and girl of this department, everyone says that we are a very compatible pair, but, in private, I have to admit that my character and her are really incompatible. She is willful and almost rude, she is unreasonable, beauty is her only weapon, I am infatuated with her beauty, but I can't stand her temper. ”

However, at that time, I was a cadre of the student union, whether it was sports or sports, such conditions seemed to be her criteria for choosing a boyfriend, and she refused to give up on me, but instead tightened her control over me. I wish my girlfriend was just an ordinary-looking person who was considerate and gentle. At this time, I noticed Yue Xingshuang in their bedroom. Yue Xingshuang is an introverted girl, usually silent, once, after I quarreled with her, I pulled my mobile phone in her dormitory, Yue Xingshuang sent me back, that time, we talked for a long time, I was suddenly surprised to find that it turned out that Yue Xingshuang was the girlfriend I had been looking for for a long time, empathetic, gentle and considerate. So, Yue Xingshuang and I got closer and closer. ”

Later, she found out about it. She has always been arrogant, she couldn't swallow this breath, slapped Yue Xingshuang in front of many people, and scolded a lot of unbearable words. I was in a hurry and pushed her away. Protected Yue Xingshuang. I still remember the look on her face when she looked at me, that kind of hateful expression, vicious eyes, and she said word by word, she would not want me to have a good life. Oddly enough, she has been missing ever since. No one had ever seen her. The Public Security Bureau came to investigate and called me and Yue Xingshuang for questioning, but there was no result, she was too proud, so she basically had no friends. Three months later, the school announced that she was missing, and in fact, in our hearts, we all felt that she was dead. ”

Speaking of this, Wang Tang exhaled. It's as if a thousand pounds of weight have been lifted.

I looked at him and whispered, "What's her name?" ”

Extremely reluctantly, Wang Tang spit out two words, like a name that he was afraid of.

"Her name is Zhou Tinglan." In the afternoon, 5 people gathered at the hot pot restaurant.

Unexpectedly, Shanshan's place was surprisingly smooth.

Shanshan handed over a piece of paper with something densely written on it. I glanced at it, and it was a diagram. In addition to Zhou Tinglan, who knew as early as noon, there were also Wang Tang and Yue Xingshuang's names, their relationship, of course, was triangular, but I don't know why, it was a square relationship, connected diagonally, and the strangest thing was that Li Yuting's name was also among them.

"Shanshan, what do you mean, I don't understand."

"Actually, I don't understand either. At the beginning, I only knew that there might be a connection between Zhou Tinglan, Wang Tang, and Yue Xingshuang, but I didn't expect that when I was investigating, I found something. Li Yuting, a person, seems to play a certain role in it, and maybe it is still an important role. ”

"Oh? How so? Alain blurted out.

"During the investigation, Shanshan and I looked through the transcripts left by the police at that time. found a little clue, there were 3 people, proving that Zhou Tinglan and Wang Tang had been with Li Yuting after arguing in public. These 3 people are, Wu Xiang, Liu Ming, and Wang Qi. The strange thing is that except for these three people, no one can be completely sure of Zhou Tinglan's whereabouts, and Li Yuting's transcript at that time said that she admitted that she had a simple contact with Zhou Tinglan that day, but soon they dispersed. Moreover, at that time, she was very sure that Zhou Tinglan went to the riverside alone. ”

"Riverside? Isn't it the Flashy Mountain? I couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm. Li Yuting said so at the time, because Li Yuting was a good friend of Zhou Tinglan, so the police once searched along the river according to the clues she gave, but found nothing. Sadly, no one has ever looked for it in Flashy Mountain. Because Li Yuting herself admitted that she had contact with Zhou Tinglan, the testimony of Wu Xiang and the three of them seeing them together had no effect. When the police closed the case, they wrote, 'Suspected suicide, body unknown.' ”

"It's that simple?"

"According to the situation at that time, I was busy for 3 months and got nothing, so I could only do this. But don't worry, the excitement isn't here yet. In the second week of Zhou Tinglan's disappearance, Li Yuting also disappeared. However, Li Yuting's disappearance this time was only discovered 4 months later. ”

"Why? Missing for 4 months before finding out?! That's an exaggeration! "Alain's face in disbelief.

"That's right, because, on the third day after the police asked, Li Yuting took a leave of absence for 1 month to the school because of an urgent matter at home, and deferred the examination of 3 subjects.

followed by a two-month summer vacation, until the end of the first month of school, the school saw that Li Yuting's tuition had not been paid, so after checking it, it turned out that Xue had not come to school. The people who asked them about the dormitory said that when Li Yuting was leaving, she told them that she might not come again, and asked her why, but she didn't say. So the school called Xue's house, and their family thought that the child was at school, but only to find out on both sides that Li Yuting had disappeared for 4 months. ”

"Zhou Tinglan is missing, Li Yuting is also missing, is there a connection between them? Why is Li Yuting also included in that relationship diagram? "I can't hold back the faint excitement in my heart.

"This, although I am not very sure, but in the investigation at that time, an unknown person revealed that the relationship between Zhou Tinglan and Li Yuting is no longer as simple as being good friends, or even, intimate! Through understanding, Li Yuting is an introverted girl, very tall, about 1.7 meters long, unsociable, but she has a hot fight with Zhou Tinglan. ”

"You mean, the two of them ????!!!!" I was stunned.

"And so. In the next year, 5 people died in the school, and 3 of them were Wu Xiang, Liu Ming and Wang Qi just mentioned. And without exception, they all died in Vanity Mountain! And the cause of death is unknown! ”

I suddenly thought of something, "Wait, you say, those three people, called Wu Xiang, Liu Ming, Wang Qi?" ”

"That's right, what's the matter, you know?"

"Wu Xiang, Liu Ming, Wang Qi...... Five Spices, Six Lives, Seven Kings!!!!! "It was that time in the deep underground chat room, and the names I saw, why, are so strikingly similar! If they are them, then who are they deep underground?!

"Baby, are you okay, what are you thinking?" Xiaoxue sensed my trance.

"No, nothing." You go on to say that I don't want to add to my family's troubles until things are clear.

"Okay, then, I'll talk about the last thing that Xiaoxue and I found out, and it is also the one that may be the most interesting to you among all the things." Shanshan said unhurriedly.

"Don't sell it, say it quickly." Alain was impatient.

But Shanshan glanced at Alan meaningfully, "Alan, let me ask you something, when you invited Saucer Immortal that night, Jingjing stood behind you, did you find a problem?" ”

"Question, what question? I felt cold on her. ”

"It was only today that I suddenly remembered that seemingly insignificant thing." Shanshan's eyes were more excited than they had ever been.

We held our breath.

"Alain, have you noticed that Jingjing that day, when she looked at you, her eyes squinted downward." Shanshan glanced at Xiaoxue after speaking, and Xiaoxue's face was serious.

"Squinting downwards, what is this, very ......" Alain swallowed back into his stomach before he could finish his words.

"You've found out. Jingjing's height is only 1.6 meters, Alan is 1.65 meters, according to our investigation, Zhou Tinglan's height is only 1.62 meters, that day, Jingjing was barefoot, we all saw it. ”

"What do you mean......"

"Li Yuting, her height is 1.72 meters!"

Five people gathered around the hot pot, except for the gurgling sound of boiling meat in the pot, there was no sound at all.

"Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on?" Shiba broke the silence. "Who the hell is Jingjing!"

"I'm not sure, but I don't think it's going to be that simple." Shanshan looked at Xiao Zhi, her eyes were full of helplessness. "Xiaozhi, be strong, no matter who Jingjing is, we have to turn her back."

Everyone nodded in unison. Once, there were 6 good friends sitting around, but now, it's like this.

After a little silence, Xiaoxue suddenly screamed, causing many people to focus their attention on us. "What's wrong, Xiaoxue." I asked.

"Have you ever thought that ghosts have no body, so, Gao Alain's half-headed Jingjing, or is it not Jingjing?!"

"Miss, what do you mean?"

"Oh, I mean, it's impossible for Jingjing to gain 10 centimeters more for no reason because of Li Yuting's possession, the body is material, objective and unchanging, and the ghost is the soul, it is a spiritual thing, to put it simply, I think Jingjing is not possessed, but, she is simply Li Yuting!"

Xiaoxue talked about a blind spot that we have always had, we always thought that Jingjing was possessed by ghosts, but we didn't think of another level, the illusion of the ghost itself, so it seems that Jingjing, who has been with us, is not what we thought Jingjing. So, where is Jingjing now?

Everyone is in no mood to eat at all. Things have come to this place, and it's completely beyond our imagination. Originally, I thought that Jingjing was just possessed, so in a short period of time, life was guaranteed, but now it is completely different. It's not Jingjing who is in 303 but a ghost, so what about Jingjing? Where is she for so many days? How is she going to stay alive?

The soup in the pot was almost boiling dry, and I turned my head and asked the boss to add water. When I turned around, I saw a mirror on the opposite wall, reflecting a helpless face, and exhaled deeply.

Mirror?!

Once, I saw Jingjing's appearance in the mirror of the dormitory, and I still remember that scene deeply. Ghosts, can they be reflected in the mirror? I'm afraid not. So, at least on the day I saw Jingjing, she was a real existence! So, when did she start to change again? No clue.

I had to be so immersed in my own thoughts that Shanshan didn't even hear me call me three times, and it was Alain who patted me before I reacted.

I told them what I thought.

"What should we do?" Alain had no clue at all.

"Maybe we should go straight to the Flashy Mountain to find the bones." Xiao Zhi's eyes were also at a loss.

"What happened to Jingjing? Why did she get into trouble with these ghosts? Xiaoxue asked herself to ask us, but unfortunately, she didn't answer.

"We have to hurry, otherwise, Jingjing will be more dangerous than we imagined." Shanshan reminded everyone.

I didn't speak, I didn't know what to say.

God, why are we caught in such a complex vortex?

When we walked out of the hot pot restaurant, we had already decided on 3 things.

First, we must understand the situation of the year again, and we can't just rely on the long written records to infer it, so tomorrow, Alain and Xiaozhi will go to the person who was most closely related to the whole thing back then, Wang Tang. From his mouth, set out more situations.

Second, Shanshan and Xiaoxue and I will go to Fuhua Mountain from tomorrow to do a preliminary search.

Third, we must have a good "talk" with Jingjing.

The first two things are to be completed tomorrow, and the face-to-face "negotiation" with Jingjing is urgent.

When it was dark, our group returned to 303. When I opened the door, I was greeted by the familiar smell of staleness, and the once warm bedroom was now like a cold tomb. Jingjing, with her back to us, lying on the bed, we can't see if she is our Jingjing, and we can't see if she is alive.

According to the plan, before the five of us entered the door, we had hung the last jade Buddha around the neck outside, mine because it was broken that night, as soon as I entered the door, I went straight to the desk, looking for the jade Buddha that belonged to Jingjing in the drawer. However, it was gone.

Glancing at Shanshan, she understood what was happening. Then she came over and took my hand.

We didn't turn on the lights, and everything was shrouded in a hazy shadow.

Lush. You're awake, aren't you. Shanshan asked.

As expected, the first sentence really did not respond.

"Don't pretend anymore, we know that you are not Jingjing at all, who are you, Zhou Tinglan or Li Yuting!!!" Xiao Zhi almost roared.

…… The words landed, and Jingjing sat up.

"It seems that I underestimated you, and you actually know my identity." Her voice made the room even colder. "But it's okay, it's okay to know, your friend's life is also in my hands, and you also have to help me with last night's incident!"

"Help?! OK. You have to tell us first, where is Jingjing? I said to her back.

"Jingjing, she's in a safe place, a safe place. If you help me, I won't let her die, and if you don't help me, or, if you do something wrong, then wait to accompany your good friend. Hehehehehehe. ”

"Also, as to the question of my identity, I advise you to stop there. Let's go find the bones. You don't have much time left. ”

"Whose bones do you want us to find? Zhou Tinglan's, or Li Yuting's? Shanshan asked loudly.

"Hehehehehehe, you are so smart, how can you not know?" After Jingjing finished speaking, she lay down again. The room was silent, and in a trance, I heard the sound of water ticking, and Jingjing stopped talking.

We knew we couldn't ask anything more.

Shanshan pulled me and ran to the rooftop. "How?" Not even breathing, we hurriedly asked Xiaoxue.

Xiaoxue's tone is undoubtedly affirmative.

"In the mirror, there is Jingjing's figure!"

How come?! I was shocked.

No matter what Jingjing was, the next day we still divided into two ways and acted according to the plan.

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

Fuhua Mountain is a tourist hotspot in the city, and there are 3 roads into the mountain. Of course, these 3 paths are the so-called official paths. In order to be in a hurry, we took the trail directly from the back of the school up the hill.

Yesterday, it was the sun shining in July, but today, it is a group of mountains and rains. For the sake of safety, we decided not to separate the three of us, although this would be a bit less efficient, but we really couldn't afford to lose anyone.

Although it is a small road, it is already familiar after walking a lot. After a while, I have come to the lingering pavilion at the foot of the mountain. Looking up, the lighthouse at the top of the hill looms in the thin mist.

"Xiaoxue, where's the map?"

Xiaoxue took out the map of Fuhua Mountain from her backpack and spread it on the stone table in the hall. "We're here now," Xiaoxue pointed to the corner marked with the Pavilion of Lingering, "From here, down the mountain, the lighthouse is just on our left. ”

I looked at the lighthouse in the clouds again, "The fog at the top of the mountain is very large, and I can't see clearly where we are now, but I can see how many layers there are. Vaguely guessing, as far as the eye can see, is only the top of the tower and the highest floor. ”

"That means the more you go up, the more you should see, right?" Xiaoxue asked.

But Shanshan shook her head, "I'm afraid it's not like this, the terrain on the mountain is also different, plus the shield of the trees, I can't tell where Jingjing said." ”

"Can't you even get an approximate location?"

"I'm afraid so." Shanshan's words blocked one of our roads. "So we have to do this, starting with the wells and eliminating them one by one!"

I looked at the map, "If it was Zhou Tinglan, she once said that she was watching a meteor shower enter the mountain, then she must have gone up the mountain from the path in the school at night, we know that in Fuhua Mountain, the gate should be closed at 8 o'clock in the evening." If it is Li Yuting, I think that the only way she can enter the mountain is a few official roads, and her purpose should be to find Zhou Tinglan, or rather, at least it is related to Zhou Tinglan, then she will definitely not go over the mountain to the west of Fuhua Mountain. Therefore, no matter how the two of them go, no matter who ends up falling into the well, it should be within this range. ”

I drew an outline on the map with my pen, "Southeast of Vanity Mountain." Here, the lighthouse is on the left-hand side. So, let's first check the wells in this area. ”

"Did you hear Jingjing say that night, she was passing by an open field on her way down the mountain? Judging from the map, there is only one open land in the southeast of Fuhua Mountain," Xiaoxue took the pen and also ticked a circle on the map, "The abandoned Wanjing Garden is open." ”

"I guess this is it, if, that night, she really passed by the open space of Wanjing Garden and saw Wang Tang, then they would definitely not go here," I pointed to the map, "This is the road of Fuhua Mountain, they should have walked with the road on their backs, so they fell into the well." I asked, and then looked at Shanshan with an inquiring eye.

Shanshan nodded, "There's no way, now, we can only believe what Jingjing said that day, no matter who is in her body, if she really wants us to help her find her bones, she shouldn't lie to us." Even if she will hide some details, the general direction should be true. ”?

I looked at the map, and there were two wells marked on it: the Moon Shadow Spring and the Great Bitter Ancient Well.

We rounded the main road and followed the map to the abandoned open space in front of the Wanjing Garden in the middle of the mountain. It was just a small open field, and the path that once led to the garden had been blocked by wild grass, and the slopes of the hills, which were not very steep but not very pathless, were densely overgrown with trees. The road ahead and back is already a fog.

"Okay, now we are standing where Li Yuting or Zhou Tinglan once stood, from here, we go down the mountain. Look for that well. "There are two roads down the mountain, but there are three in front of us.
