The first thing I did when I returned to school was to call Yu Xiaowei to report the good news, after all, she had made a lot of contributions to this matter, and I hoped that she would also talk to Uncle Le. After it was over, he called Song Yang again, reported the progress here, and thanked him for his help in this matter. Song Yang seemed to be very busy, and the vague "um" kept coming, so I had to hang up the phone first, and prepared to go to KTV another day to thank me in person

I also knew that there must have been an interrogation process after Cao Ye was arrested, so I didn't call Wu Haisheng until the next day to ask him about the current situation, and Wu Haisheng's answer shocked me. It turned out that among the more than 20 students interrogated yesterday, some of them did go to the rooftop on the night of Li Xu's death, and they did see Cao Ye and Li Xu on the rooftop together, but then Cao Ye drove everyone on the rooftop down. In other words, no one saw what happened to Cao Ye and Li Xu on the rooftop, and the so-called on-site witnesses had nothing to talk about. However, at least it can be proved that Li Xu was with Cao Ye before he died, and Cao Ye was of course seriously suspected, so the police took him away legally for interrogation.

Wu Haisheng originally thought that with the police interrogation experience, coupled with the evidence and testimony currently available, it would be easy to deal with a student like Cao Ye, but Wu Haisheng said that he far underestimated Cao Ye's anti-interrogation ability, this guy was as invulnerable as an iron bucket, and he bit himself to death just talked to Li Xu because of Yuanyuan's problem, and then the matter was not discussed, he did be a little rough to Li Xu, but did not push him off the rooftop, but left Li Xu and left the rooftop alone, I didn't know what happened to Li Xu later, and I didn't know that Li Xu was dead, so I thought he had really transferred schools.

"Damn, this bastard, it's like it's true." Wu Haisheng gritted his teeth on the phone.

I asked worriedly, "If he doesn't admit it, is there no way to take him?" ”

"Not necessarily, Li Xu has a motive for killing and the time to commit the crime, even if he doesn't admit it, we can prosecute him in accordance with the law, and then it depends on how the court decides, I think the chances of being sentenced are still quite high."

"That's good." I breathed a sigh of relief, even if Cao Ye could resist again, after all, the French Open was restored and not leaked.

Later, the news of Cao Ye's detention came out, and the news that he killed Li Xu also spread between the two schools, and because the case was very tight, I heard that it would soon be tried in public. There is no boss in the secondary school, Scorpion, Zhang Liao and others are still hospitalized, and the existing Li Wei, Jin Lin and others can't stop the field, so the school is in a mess again, and new gangs and forces are constantly emerging.

After Cao Ye was arrested, my case was naturally fine. I asked Wu Haisheng if he could go and see Cao Ye. He agreed, and on a weekend morning, Ye Yun and Dongzi and I went to the detention center and met Cao Ye in the reception room. It's just that I haven't seen him for more than half a month, Cao Ye seems to be more than ten years old, not only because of his unkemptness, but also because the spirit on his body has basically been polished. When Cao Ye looked at me, his eyes were calm and terrifying, as if his heart was like stagnant water, but I knew that there was a murderous motive hidden underneath.

"You can't blame me." I said: "It is natural for you to kill people to pay for life, and if you kill Li Xu, you will pay for his life." ”

Cao Ye looked at me and said word by word: "I didn't kill Li Xu. ”

"Go talk to the police." I dropped a cigarette and two bottles of wine, and asked the police to take care of him before leaving the detention center. After all, after fighting for so long, he is also a dying man, so I pity him.

I never dared to meet Yuanyuan, and I had no idea her current state. One afternoon, she called me out of the blue and asked me to meet me at the typhoon shelter outside the school. I hesitated for a moment and went, Yuanyuan sat in the corner, with a glass of juice in front of her, but the expression on her face was extremely calm. I sat down and looked at her without saying a word

"You already knew, didn't you?"

I nodded.

Yuan Yuan let out a sigh, looked at the ceiling as if she was stuck in a memory, and said slowly: "Actually, I should have guessed that with Li Xu's character, he wouldn't have contacted me for so long, I just deceived myself, thinking that he would contact me one day." ”

I couldn't help but say: "I still hope you can come out, Li Xu also hopes that you can be happy in heaven." "It's a very old-fashioned reassuring word, I actually learned it from TV, but now I don't have anything to say but talk about it.

Yuanyuan didn't speak for a long time, staring at the strawberry juice in front of her motionlessly.

"Li Xu and I grew up together since we were children, and we promised to be together forever, but now he has left me alone. It's okay Wu Tao, you don't have to worry about me, I just sighed, I've cried enough in the past few days, and suddenly found that I was also relieved, and the days of waiting for this year are also very difficult, many times I will hide in the quilt and secretly scold him, why haven't you contacted me for so long? After a long time, it is inevitable to think crankily, is he in love with other girls again? Will he never come back? This negative man, Chen Shimei, I don't want him anymore, now it's okay, I know that he is dead, so he didn't contact me, and all the confusion, doubts, and hatred have disappeared. I love him, he loves me, and that never changes. It's okay, it's okay, Wu Tao, don't look at me with that kind of look, I will definitely live a good life in the future, I will study hard, work hard, work hard, and marry a good husband, Li Xu will also bless me, right? ”

I nodded desperately, it's really good that Yuanyuan can think like this, this girl is far stronger than I thought, no wonder she can endure humiliation and burden by Cao Ye's side for so long

"I inquired about Li Xu's grave, do you want to go with me to see it?"

I nodded, got up and walked out of the typhoon shelter.

Li Xu's father was an indiscriminate gambler, and after receiving his son's body and a large amount of compensation, he happened to encounter a gambling addiction and was in a hurry to get to the card table, so he hastily sent his son to the crematorium and burned it, and gave the funeral home staff a sum of money, asking them to help buy a cemetery to bury his son, and hurried home to gamble. The staff was also responsible, bought a cemetery by the mountains and rivers in the Laoyapo grove, and asked the craftsmen to build a good tombstone, so that Li Xu's ashes were buried underground. From last year to now, no one has ever looked at Li Xu, and the grass on both sides of the cemetery has long been overgrown.

It took me and Yuanyuan an hour to clear the wild grass on both sides, and the photo of Li Xu on the tombstone is still beautiful and sunny, and the beautiful Yuanyuan can be called a pair of beautiful people made in heaven, but now it is separated by yin and yang, one sleeps in the ground, and the other lives in grief for a long time. When we came, we only brought a bouquet of flowers, a large bouquet of white calla lilies in front of the tombstone, the sky was overcast, and a little snow drifted, which was considered to set off the atmosphere, but after all, the climate was not formed, and even the ground was not dyed white, and this winter was almost over.

The two of us sat in front of the tombstone, Yuanyuan asked me if I was in a hurry to go back, I said I was not in a hurry, and she began to tell the story of her and Li Xu. In fact, it's nothing, it's just a pair of childhood sweethearts, they've been together since junior high school, she sent water when he played basketball, and he topped the teacher when she was criticized, and the final result was that both of them had a decline in their studies, so they were admitted to the unsatisfactory secondary vocational and technical college. Yuanyuan said: "If we study hard and get into a better school, will these things not happen?" ”

I didn't answer because "if" doesn't make sense, and even if it's a good school, there will still be school violence.

We stayed until dark before leaving, and on the way back I told me to look elsewhere, so I took a taxi with her. I'm going to go to the zero point KTV, and it's been more than a month since I came out of the number, and I haven't been there once. He didn't answer when he called Song Yang a few days ago, and he didn't know what was going on in the store now.

At the beginning of the lights, get off the car on the side of the road, in the most lively and prosperous street in Wenshui County, the arrival of the dark night makes both sides of the street in a colorful way, flashing high beams and low beams of the traffic flow endlessly, in this world formed by light like day, zero point KTVR spoon darkness is undoubtedly out of place here.

The whole building was black and lifeless, like a lonely old man in his twilight years.

My heart tightened all at once.

I walked through it step by step, wishing it was just a temporary blackout, which had happened before, and it would take me no more than thirty seconds to get back to light with just another set of switches. But during the time I got out of the car and crossed the road, the zero point KTV was still dark, and there was not a car or security guard at the door.

After all, I walked over, and my heart was completely pinched, and I even felt very difficult to breathe.

The door was locked, and there was a blank piece of paper with four large words written on it: Store Transfer, and a phone number underneath.

Midnight closed and transferred, and I had no idea that my body was shaking, and I kindly suspected that it had something to do with me.

I took out my mobile phone tremblingly and wanted to call Song Yang to ask, but my hands trembled and I couldn't even hold a call.

"Hey, Wu Tao, why are you here?"

I turned around and saw Sister Lan, an old bustard in a shampoo room in the alley opposite.

"I, I'm here to find Brother Yang......"

"They're closed, don't you know?"

"I don't know...... What's going on? ”

"Huh? Isn't it for you? They said that you smashed a school, injured several students, and had to clear the public security bureau in addition to losing money, which was an extremely large amount of money, so you had to sell the store out......"
