Chapter 14: Common Ground

Jinfeng High School in Bailin District is closed today.

Wu Zhenzhen stayed at home alone, wrapping his body in the quilt. Lan Qi, who was fine yesterday, how can he say that he is dead when he dies? The thought of the horrible guillotine killing two students in the class in quick succession made her too frightened to know what to say.

The memory returned to the day of Bai Jing's accident, March 21. It was Monday.

Wu Zhenzhen had a headache with heavy schoolwork, and every time the teacher was emphasizing how close and close the college entrance examination was, he already wanted to vomit in the face of the math and geometry questions and English letters on the exam papers. However, there is no way, I still have to continue to review.

"Bai Jing, what university do you want to go to in the future?" When school ended that day, when Wu Zhenzhen and Bai Jing walked out of the school gate, they asked, "Are you still planning to apply for Yingzhen University?" That's the highest science college in K, so are you setting your goals too high? ”

"It's okay," Bai Jing said with a smile: "If you want to set a goal, you have to set the highest, the opportunity for the college entrance examination, only once in life, naturally you have to work hard." ”

"Hmm...... My parents also wanted me to take a science exam, but I really had a headache. However, last year, the undergraduate line of science was indeed much lower, but the problem is that the topic is too difficult. I guess the most I can do is go to the real forest academy. ”

Zhenlin College is the second science college in K City, even so, for Wu Zhenzhen, it is beyond reach.

"Bai Jing, in today's exam, did you do that geometry question?" Wu Zhenzhen suddenly asked: "It's a full twenty points, my head is too big to stare at, but I can't do it." If I continue like this, I won't be able to get into Zhenlin Academy......"

"You mean the subject? By connecting e and h together as an auxiliary line, we can prove that the two line segments are vertical. ”

"Huh? Think about it, e, h...... Wait. ”

She asked Bai Jing to stop, and immediately took out an exercise book from her school bag, opened it, and flipped out the draft she had written during the exam. Among them is the geometry of the problem.

"Well, connect E and H as an auxiliary line, yes, so that you can use ...... Bai Jing, you are such a genius, you can think of it like this! ”

"It's okay."

"You, you have time to teach me more geometry problems, you are a member of the study committee, I have a headache when I do geometry problems, I really can't stand it."

"Well, in fact, the key to geometry problems is to be familiar with theorems, and any question is to assess the mastery of theorems, that is, we must pay attention to where there is a key that can be solved with a theorem."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came: "Bai Jing, you really thought of the solution to this question." I analyzed it, in the past few years, the test papers of the college entrance examination in K City, mathematics has become more and more focused on geometry, and the three geometry questions in the science paper of the college entrance examination last year are very difficult, which also leads to the undergraduate line of science pulling down a lot of points. ”

"Indeed." Bai Jing stood up and said, "Do you also plan to take the Faculty of Science?" Lan Qi? ”

It was Lan Qi who appeared behind the two.

"Lan Qi," Wu Zhenzhen said, "You also made that question?" Alas, I have to take the English test tomorrow, and I'm about to collapse, and I have the urge to kill people when I see the English alphabet. ”

"English." Lan Qi smiled bitterly and said, "I also have a headache." I've been practicing listening and reading comprehension these days. But no matter how many times I listened to it, the accuracy rate was still pitifully low. Reading comprehension is even more difficult, I just did a 09 college entrance examination English mock paper yesterday, and the three reading comprehension questions in it add up to only seven questions. ”

"Isn't it?" Wu Zhenzhen's eyes widened and said, "No, right?" Which district did you do the mock volume? ”

"It's Bailin."

The three of them walked together, and they continued to discuss various issues of the college entrance examination on the way. But the biggest headache for the three of them was not mathematics and English, but physics.

"No more!" Wu Zhenzhen walked and said, "How can I get into Zhenlin Academy with this score!" Physics, I'm not that material at all! ”

"But it's really easy for those who study science to get a job," Bai Jing said, "and there's no way around it." ”

"I actually want to study liberal arts, but I'm a girl anyway, so it's not surprising that I want to study liberal arts. But my parents just won't let me, Bai Jing, I really envy you, you have the ambition to win the Eagle True University. ”

"Haha, it's okay. Actually, I also think it is very difficult to get into Eagle Zhen University, but it is always good to work hard, and if you succeed, then ......"

"I don't think it's very sensible, Bai Jing." Lan Qi persuaded him: "You should know, Yingzhen University is indeed far less famous than Tsinghua University and Tongji University in the country, but it is the leading famous university in our city." Although your grades are indeed excellent, I think it will be quite difficult to get into Eagle Zhen University. ”

"I've learned that Eagle Zhen University will expand its enrollment this year, so it may further lower the score line and lower the threshold. I have also done a lot of mock papers in this period, and I have a lot of experience. If you don't do it if it feels impossible, you'll never be able to achieve it. ”

Then, the three of them said goodbye. Wu Zhenzhen thought about Bai Jing's words, and he was also very emotional in his heart. Is there a way to challenge yourself? The Zhenlin Academy, which is only two books, is discouraged by itself.

And Wu Zhenzhen at that time didn't expect that it would be the last meeting between himself and Bai Jing.

"Really!" The mother opened the door and said, "Even if the school is closed, you can't relax." The college entrance examination is getting closer and closer, so let's hurry up and read a book. ”

"Good, good ......"

Wu Zhenzhen sighed, took the quilt away, and sat up.

She sat down on her desk, took out the textbooks in her bag, and opened the language books first. This is Wu Zhenzhen's way of reviewing, because Chinese is the most effortless to review. However, memorizing classical Chinese is also a chore. At this moment, she flipped to the "Teacher Table" and began to recite it.

"The first emperor was not despicable to his ministers, and he looked after his ministers in the grass...... Is it a grass house or a thatched house? ”

Then she immediately took her hand away, but it was so hard that the language book fell to the ground. Then, from the page, a piece of paper fell out.

"This, this is ......"

Then, Wu Zhenzhen was shocked to find that the name written on the language book was actually "Bai Jing"!

This language book is Bai Jing!

Wu Zhenzhen immediately picked up the language book, flipped through it carefully, and sure enough, he found that it was not his own book at all. During the period after Bai Jing's death, because the Chinese class had been doing mock papers from previous years and writing proposition essays, he didn't use textbooks at all, and the review in the past few days was mainly based on mathematics and English, which led Wu Zhenzhen to find out this now.

In other words, Bai Jing and herself took the wrong book from each other at a certain time period? Quite possibly. Wu Zhenzhen and Bai Jing often hold language books and check each other's recitation of classical Chinese, and it is entirely possible to get them wrong.

"Bai Jing......" Wu Zhenzhen was very sad in his heart. She picked up the piece of paper that was clipped to Bai Jing's language and wanted to see what was written on it.

It turned out that above was an essay written by Bai Jing. The essay question is based on the 09 K City College Entrance Examination Chinese test paper, the essay.

Because Wu Zhenzhen focused all his revisions on mathematics and physics, he almost never wrote proposition essays, and only wrote mock essay questions during the exam. During the class, the teacher also repeatedly mentioned the important surname of the composition, and also guessed several possible composition propositions.

"Bai Jing, how did she write it...... Since she plans to take the Yingzhen University, she won't be too careful about her Chinese, and when the time comes, when she admits students, she should first look at the results of mathematics and physics. ”

I took a closer look at the composition written by Bai Jing. She writes in the most common, argumentative essay format at present.

Looking at it, I saw that Bai Jing had a text that was written like this: "For example. Three days ago, I went to Baiyan District once......"

White, white area?

Suddenly, Wu Zhenzhen's head jumped. She recalled that the second deceased, Lin Xun, died in Baiyan District!

She saw that at the end of the composition, Bai Jing wrote the date on it. It was March 9th. So, three days ago, on March 6, I went to Baiyan District?

She went to look through the calendar, March 6, it was indeed Zhou.

She knew Bai Jing very well, her goal was Yingzhen University, such a difficult goal, her pressure could be imagined. Therefore, she will not run to the Baiyan District unless necessary. Of course, the content of the composition may also be fictional, but Wu Zhenzhen feels that Bai Jing is not made up.

So, why did she go to Baiyan District?

Does this have anything to do with her being killed by the Guillotine?

Wouldn't it be far-fetched? After all, the Baiyan area is also very large. It can't be said that when she went to the Baiyan District, she thought that she was regarded as a target by the Guillotine.

However, the more I thought about it, the more uneasy I became.

She hesitated, picked up the phone on the table, and dialed Bai Jing's house.

After a long time, the phone was connected. An old-looking voice came: "Hey......"

"Hello, is it uncle? I'm Wu Zhenzhen. ”

"Oh, Wu Zhenzhen." It was Bai Jing's father, Bai Yeshan, who answered the phone.

"That's right. Uncle, Bai Jing's death...... Please mourn and be submissive. In fact, I want to ask, on the 6th of last month, Bai Jing, did she go to Baiyan District? ”

"Last month?"

Recalling the tragic death of his beloved daughter, Bai Yeshan's voice seemed choked again. At this moment, he must be very painful, and it is really heart-wrenching for him to recall Bai Jing, who was alive and well last month. Wu Zhenzhen didn't know, was it right to ask that.

"Yes......" he suddenly said, "I remember." At that time, she went to Baiyan District to listen to a lecture. That lecture was given by a professor at Eagle Shin University for the college entrance examination. The lecture will be held in ...... Muyao Road. ”

"Really?"

"Yes."

Then, Wu Zhenzhen checked on the Internet, and then, she found a professor at Yingzhen University who gave a lecture in Baiyan District. The location is Jinbin University located on Muyao Road, Baiyan District.

"Found it. The speaker is ...... Honorary Professor of Yingzhen University, Bian Xingyan. Well, here's a picture of the professor, so young, he doesn't look like he's thirty years old, right? ”

Becoming an honorary professor at such a young age seems to be really young and promising.

Wu Zhenzhen checked it again with Baidu Map, and the location of Mu Yao Road and Qingtian Park, where Lin Xun was found dead, are still far away. However, she then found out something......

A very important thing!

Bus No. 375 passes through Qingtian Road and Muyao Road at the same time!

That is to say, take the No. 375 bus, as long as you pass about three stops, you can get to Muyao Road! And Qingtian Road is the starting station of bus No. 375! As long as you take the subway, you can get from Bailin District to Baiyan District!

"Do you mean ......?"

Although there were other routes, Wu Zhenzhen began to make inferences.

In order to listen to Professor Bian Xingyan's lecture, Bai Jing took the subway from her home to Qingtian Road, Baiyan District, and then took a bus to Zhenbin High School on Muyao Road!

Qingtian Park is on Qingtian Road!

Wu Zhenzhen's hands began to bead with sweat.

Don't......

Is it really related?

Did the police notice this clue?

She asked Bai Yeshan on the phone before: "Uncle, have you told the police about this clue?" ”

"No, I don't. What's wrong? Does this have anything to do with Xiao Jing's death? ”

I'm afraid that Bai Yeshan was overly sad and completely forgot about the second deceased. It is not surprising that the matter of the third, fourth, fifth, and second deceased has long been forgotten.

Wu Zhenzhen felt that there was only a certain connection between them.

She immediately took out the transportation card from her bag and decided to go there now!

The words that Bai Jing said to herself in the past have become an important hope for herself under the weight of the college entrance examination. So even if he took a certain risk, Wu Zhenzhen decided to investigate.

Absolutely unforgiving...... This kind of indiscriminate killing of innocent demons! We must let this demon be punished by the law!

Wu Zhenzhen walked outside and happened to meet his parents. The father was stunned for a moment and asked, "Want to go out?" Where to go? ”

"I'll be back soon, Mom and Dad, I'm ......"

"Done your homework?"

"School is off today."

"Don't go out." Father shook his head and said, "There are already two people in your class who have been killed by the Guillotine. It's too dangerous for you to go out alone now! No, you might as well stay at home and review. Final exams are coming, right? ”

"But...... Daddy......"

"I said it, no!"

Father's considerations also make sense. The Guillotine Demon killed Bai Jing and Lan Qi in such a short period of time, who knows if he will kill the rest of the class again?

"Your dad was right." Mother also said: "When I think of that severed head demon, I beat a drum in my heart, it's not important, don't go out, it's true." ”

Wu Zhenzhen saw that his parents were so insistent, so he had no choice but to return to the room.

She lay down on the bed for a moment.

On that day, when she and Bai Jing were finally separated, she remembered that she was ...... Left with Lan Qi.

and Lan Qi......

She suddenly straightened up again.

"By the way, yesterday, Lan Qi he, he asked me...... Do you believe that there are ghosts in the world? ”

At first, I thought that Lan Qi was just asking casually. Don't...... Does this have anything to do with Bai Jing's death?

Does he know anything? Thinking about it carefully, when the police came to routinely question Bai Jing's classmates, I noticed that his expression was very unnatural.

Wu Zhenzhen began to think, why, the Guillotine Demon wanted to kill Lan Qi as well? The first five deceased didn't know each other.

Isn't there some mystery in this?

Now...... Silver Feather opened her eyes.

"Silver Feather!" Silver Night was pleasantly surprised to see her open her eyes, and immediately grabbed her hand and said, "Are you okay?" I was scared to death. ”

This is in Zhengtian Hospital, the last time Yinye came with Li Yin, he has already made some doctors remember him. After inspection, Silver Feather was fine.

Silver Feather's forehead was wrapped in a bandage, and she could see the silver night in front of her clearly, only to feel that her mind was foggy.

"Go find that kid......"

Suddenly, this sentence immediately woke up in my mind!

"Child......" Suddenly Silver Feather said to Silver Night: "Brother, it's a child!" Son of Fuji Rain! Tang Feng said to me, that kid is the key! ”

"Kid?"

"Yes......" Silver Feather continued, "That kid, perhaps, has a clue about the human head of Fuji Feiyu!" ”
