Chapter 164: The Invisible Man
"You said that Lin Yutang's death has an inside story?? Don't...... She didn't commit suicide, but was killed? ”
Hearing what the bald head security section chief said, Ye Yu's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly stepped forward to ask, so frightened that the former waved his hand again and again.
"No, no, no, that girl committed suicide, and many people saw it when she jumped down alone, so there's no problem......" The bald man wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurriedly explained. What I'm talking about...... refers to the reason for her suicide. ”
"How do you know the reason for Lin Yutang's suicide?" Shinoru narrowed her eyes, obviously skeptical.
"Well...... Hehe, of course it's because I'm the head of the Security Section. The bald man said, a meaningful smile on his face. I don't dare to say anything else, at least in school, I was the one who knew the most 'secrets'. ”
"Secret?" Ye Yu was puzzled.
"Hehe, you must know that when we security personnel have nothing to do, we like to look at the monitoring probe the most, those little rabbit cubs think that no one can rest assured that they can mess around, but in fact, they are all in our eyes~ Let me tell you, the current junior high school students, tsk, really open......"
The bald man smiled obscenely, as if he remembered some of the pictures for a while, but he soon realized his gaffe, and quickly cleared his throat, put on a serious face, and said:
"Ahem, don't think about it, two chiefs, I did this for the safety of the school, it's my duty......"
"Okay, okay, let's get to the point." Shinoru impatiently interrupted the bald man's argument and broke the topic back. "What do you know about the reason for Lin Yutang's suicide?"
"Alas...... It is rumored among students that Lin Yutang committed suicide because he was bullied by a bad girl, but I think there may be something that is also one of the important reasons. The bald man held his chin and began to narrate.
"Speaking of which, that was a few weeks ago. At noon that day, I had nothing to do after eating, so I watched the monitoring probe in this guard room alone, and you must know that the time period when you can usually see the 'wonderful show' is noon and after school. The location is nothing more than the back alley of the teaching building and the hidden corridor...... But I didn't see any greasy little couples that day, but I did...... Forehead ......"
The bald man was halfway through speaking, and suddenly hesitated, and after a moment of entanglement, he finally opened his mouth again in Xiaolu's knife-like gaze.
"I saw Mr. Lu...... is beating that Lin Yutang. ”
"What?! Teacher beating up students? Ye Yu was surprised. There is such a thing...... Didn't you go to stop it?? ”
"How can I stop it? The two of us also know what the school spirit is like in our school, students are difficult to manage, and it is not once or twice that teachers beat people. And even if this kind of thing is caused by the principal, no one will pay attention to it, and the students will be blamed for their own bad behavior. The bald man spread his hands. Full of helplessness.
"But that teacher Lu beat him really hard that day, not only slapped him repeatedly, but also stomped on the girl with high heels, which hurt the child so much that he begged for mercy...... I can't bear to look at it. ”
The bald man sighed and continued. "I wasn't going to meddle in things, but I was afraid that I would be responsible if I really killed someone, so I didn't go away, and then ...... I heard some words. ”
"What's ......?"
I didn't hear the specifics clearly, but it generally seemed that Lin Yutang bumped into something about Teacher Lu. I could see that Teacher Lu was very angry, and while kicking and beating her, he threatened that if she talked too much, she would be allowed to repeat a grade, and she would not be able to finish her studies...... "The bald man recalled. "And from that day on, almost every day I could see Mr. Lu beating Lin Yutang, but no longer in the face. Instead, he picked on the body covered by his clothes and beat her, and she was not allowed to tell her about it. ”
"Isn't it so bad that parents come to the door?!" Ye Yu couldn't listen anymore, and asked angrily.
"Actually, I also quietly inquired about that girl. It is said that her family travels all year round, and there is no one to take care of her, plus she is introverted. There is not much power in the family, so ...... That Teacher Lu is so unscrupulous...... "The bald man shook his head and said.
"Maybe after paying attention to the girl, I felt even more pitiful for her, so once I deliberately walked over there at noon, pretending to bump into the scene of the beating, and indirectly saved her. It was probably because of that incident that Teacher Lu had scruples, and I rarely saw her beating people there, but what I didn't expect was ...... Soon after, the girl jumped off the building...... Alas, it's a pity......"
"So the content described by the 'blood letters' in the lecture hall is not true?" Shinoru asked.
"Hehe, basically, now that there are more haunted rumors in the school after the successive deaths, I think the most panicked person is probably that Teacher Lu." The bald man shrugged his shoulders, suddenly thought of something, and hurriedly made a "please" gesture to Ye Yu and Xiaolu.
"By the way, didn't the two of you just say that you were going to see the scene of the 'Blood Letter' incident? I'm going to take you there now, and I hope these scary things will pass sooner......"
Events can slowly calm down over time, but the lives that have been lost can never be returned......
Ye Yu thought silently, but his mood became heavier and heavier, and without saying a word, he followed the bald head of the security section who led the way, and went to the lecture hall where the incident occurred with Xiaolu.
The school on the day off was really clean, except for Ye Yu and his party, half of the figure could not be seen, which was exactly what Ye Yu wanted. The lecture hall is located at the end of the corridor on the second floor of the teaching building, and it is a large classroom, according to the bald man, it is basically only used for public classes or conferences, and it has been locked until after the accident.
"Is this it?"
Shinoru stood in front of the door of the lecture hall at the end of the hallway, peering out of the glass window on the door.
The area of the classroom is not small, and you can see more than a dozen rows of one-piece tables and chairs as far as the eye can see, and on the snow-white wall facing the door, the remaining traces of "blood characters" can still be seen, even if they have been cleaned, but at first glance it still makes people feel shocking.
"You two can go in and have a look, except for the words on the wall that have been wiped a few times, we haven't touched anything else." The bald man said earnestly, stretched out his hand and pressed it on the fingerprint machine, and with a crisp "beep" sound, the door of the lecture hall opened.
The air in the classroom was filled with a slight smell of dust. Against the backdrop of the gloomy sky outside the window, the mottled red letters on the white wall seemed to be a silent accusation against the visitors, which also made the atmosphere of the whole classroom seem somewhat strange.
Ye Yu and Xiaolu quickly walked into the classroom, and under the guidance of the bald man, they stood in front of the wall covered with "blood characters".
The "blood characters" are mottled, and it can be seen that they have been scrubbed vigorously, and even part of the wall skin has peeled off; Only the entire wall facing the main door was written, and the other three sides of the room, including the ceiling and floor, were not involved.
"The edges of the handwriting are spray-like. It feels like it's written like that kind of sprinkler paint......" Ye Yu said to the bald man while observing the remaining words on the wall. "Did you find paint or anything when you cleaned it?"
"At that time, we also thought it was paint, and we found a solvent to wipe it, but I didn't expect it to be useless at all, I really don't know what this thing is, and then we can only rub it with water, and the wall skin is broken and can't be cleaned, and finally we can only give up, alas......" The bald man shook his head and sighed.
Ye Yu stepped forward. Stretched out his finger and lightly wiped the red part of the wall, and the fingertips were immediately covered with a touch of red. Ye Yu rubbed his fingertips, put them under his nose and sniffed gently, but he barely smelled anything. Apparently this thing is not some kind of paint.
Ye Yu took out his mobile phone and clicked on a photo, raised his head again, took a few steps back in front of the white wall, and put his vision on the entire wall. He stared at it for a moment, and after a while, his frowning brow relaxed slightly.
"Oops. Could it be that our Investigator Ye has discovered the truth of the 'Haunted Blood Letter'? Xiaolu looked at Ye Yu's serious expression and joked with a smile.
"The truth of the Scarlet Words is another matter, but I'm almost certain that these words weren't written by ghosts." Ye Yu turned his head to look at Xiaolu and the bald man, pointed to the wall and explained.
"You see, although these blood words are only a few words, and they seem to be scattered on this wall in an irregular manner, the highest height that these words can reach is almost the same, that is, like this......" Ye Yu said and stepped forward, stretched out his arm upward, and compared a height against the wall.
"Apparently this is due to the limitations of the writer's height and arm length, although these characters are widely distributed horizontally, but the scope of vertical extension is very limited, if it is said that it is written by ghosts, then the range of blood characters should be larger, even extending to the ceiling, not just this wall."
"What you say makes sense, but what kind of person wrote these words?" Shinoru asked.
"It's very easy to do, we can actually work backwards from the highest height of these characters to the approximate height range of the writer." Ye Yu stretched out his arm again and compared it to the blood words on the wall. "I'm 1.80 meters tall, and my hand is a little taller than the blood writing on the wall, and if you count the tiptoe of the writers, the height of the people who write these blood characters is about 1.70 to 1.75 meters. In addition, the writer must have been in a hurry, and seemed to have been interrupted. ”
"Interrupted? What does this say? ”
"Look here." Ye Yu pointed to a piece of handwriting in the corner of the wall and said to Xiaolu. This sentence should be written as 'scum in the teaching world', right? But if you look at the word "class", is it missing? ”
Shinoru stepped forward to take a look, and sure enough, she found that the word "class" was not written completely, and the last stroke was hastily disconnected, as if it had been forcibly interrupted.
"Could it be that the words were destroyed when I painted the wall earlier?" Shinoru suggested a possibility.
"I just checked the original photos of the scene when it was not washed, and this word was never finished." Ye Yu showed the photo on his phone to Shinolu. "This perpetrator is so carefully arranged, it is impossible not to write the words completely, I guess he must have planned to fill these walls, but he was temporarily disturbed by some situation and interrupted the crime."
"The crime was interrupted...... Ah, could it be that the security guards came to patrol that night!? Xiaolu suddenly thought of something, but quickly shook her head. No, no, the surveillance showed that no one in the classroom had ever come out from the time the door was locked until it was opened the next day! Unless the perpetrator is an invisible person, it is impossible to enter and exit the classroom without knowing it! ”
"Invisible Man...... Is it? Ye Yu pondered, and once again moved his gaze to the bloody traces on the wall. Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, his eyes flashed with a sharp light.
"Wait, that'...... Is that......?! (To be continued.) )
