Chapter 96~97: The Concealer
After standing outside for two minutes, a girl walked out of the classroom.
The girl should look quite delicate, but I don't know how long it has been since she has taken care of her long hair to cover her face, and she still hangs her head, and her specific appearance is a little unclear.
The girl stood five steps away from Zou Xia.
Silent either.
It gives people a feeling of introverted inferiority.
"You don't have to be nervous, there's no one else here, I'll just ask a few questions, and you just answer them truthfully."
"The person who hurt you will never have a chance to hurt you again!"
The girl was still silent, but after a long time, she nodded slightly.
"What kind of person do you think Zhang Yanshun is?"
“...... No, I don't know......"
"Okay, then let's talk about it differently, he bullied you, right?"
“...... Well. ”
"Can't let go of your guard?"
But Yang Ke still has her own tasks.
Although it is convenient to throw everything to her, the level of her asking questions is really poor.
"Liu Rui, raise your head and look at me!"
Zou Xia took off his glasses, and the momentum of the whole person suddenly became tough.
There was a faint bloody glow in his eyes.
Liu Rui subconsciously raised her eyes, and at the moment when Zou Xia looked at each other, she only felt that there seemed to be something ...... in Zou Xia's eyes
After a few moments, the blood in his eyes faded.
Liu Rui's eyes seemed to have lost focus, looking dumbfounded.
"Liu Rui, you remember, 'You are a human being, the more others don't treat you as a human being, the more you should treat yourself as a human being', 'Your experience is not ashamed, you are just a victim of it, you are just being bullied, the fault is not in yourself......"
"I want you to forget about the negative emotions you experienced and answer my questions positively."
"Liu Rui, what has Zhang Yanshun done to you?"
The people who are interrogated by Zou Xia are generally enemies, the body of steel, he can cut the flesh from the other party piece by piece without any scruples, and the same question is repeated over and over again.
But Liu Rui is just a student, a normal student.
The routines he used to use obviously didn't work, so he could only go off the rails.
So he must first help Liu Rui get rid of those bad emotions in his memory.
Let her vent her experience from the perspective of a bystander.
"When I was in class, he would pass me notes full of embarrassing ....."
"At the end of class, he would write my name on the blackboard and fill it with the words, and ...... Actually, I don't care what he says about me, but those words, when I see them, the whole class sees them, and even the students in other classes, and those who come to the class after class. ”
"I watched them laugh, watched them discuss, watched them look at me, ill-intentioned......"
"I feel like I'm done, life is long, I have no chance to turn the tables, and the labels of those disgusting people will always hit me."
"But that's not the end of it, slowly, he doesn't do it yet."
“......”
"I can hear the other boys, they're excited, they're laughing, they're clapping, they're screaming......"
"I don't know how he got my address, but on a couple of weeks, during holidays, he would knock on my door when my parents weren't home."
"Threaten me not to open the door, just ...... I just had to open the door ......."
"But when he enters the door, he ......"
"And every time it leaves evidence, it keeps me stuck in a loop of having to be obedient......"
The girl's experience already makes people feel hopeless just by listening to it.
Zou Xia didn't know when, so he lit a cigarette for himself, but he didn't smoke it, so he let it burn.
"Haven't you thought about calling the police?"
"Have you told parents and teachers about these experiences?" Zou Xia asked.
"Why didn't there ......?"
"But the voices I hear the most are 'find problems from yourself', 'a slap doesn't make a sound', 'can cause such a problem, prove that you are not a ......, I will not care about these things, and solve the mess caused by myself by myself'......"
"Who said that last sentence?"
"Teacher Li in the office......"
"Do you know what happened between Zhang Yanshun and Jian Xiaoyu?"
Zou Xia wanted her to go back to her seat first, but when she thought of the two dead students, she felt that there might be some connection between them, Zhang Yanshun's death method was not talked about first, Jian Xiaoyu was obviously the kind of phenomenon that did not turn a blind eye and her soul turned into a ghost.
"Jian Xiaoyu is a very tough kind of girl in the class, and she has taken the lead for many bullied girls, two days ago during the National Day holiday, I heard Zhang Yanshun say that it seems that she is planning to trouble her, but I don't know more specific......"
"Is there anyone in the class who can usually play with Zhang Yanshun?"
"There are several...... Liu Wei,Meng Qingyan,Li Ya...... They often follow Zhang Yanshun and bully girls, but compared to Zhang Yanshun, they only dare to make a small fuss......"
"Okay, I got it."
After Zou Xia finished speaking, his eyes were filled with a faint blood, and this time Liu Rui's eyes gradually returned to light.
looked at Zou Xia in confusion, as if he hadn't realized what had just happened.
Zou Xia wanted her to go back to the classroom.
But seeing her become that unconfident again, even thinking of the 'victim guilt' theory that she often heard, finally brought her to Yang Ke.
Yang Ke is busy preparing for class, her identity is a Chinese teacher, but her Chinese grades seem to be very poor.
There are a lot of things that she can't understand, so she has to show her stuff in the classroom after the next class.
Zou Xia first asked Liu Rui to wait at the door of the office, and went in to find Yang Ke by himself, and told him what had happened, and the care between girls in this situation should be more useful than that of boys.
Yang Ke was originally very busy, but when he heard what happened to Liu Rui, he felt very angry.
Zou Xia let her communicate with Liu Rui.
When he walked out of the office, he glanced at Liu Rui for the last time and left very simply.
Yang Ke looked at the timid Liu Rui in front of him, smiled very gently, but the words that Zou Xia quietly confessed before leaving appeared in his mind:
"This student has a question, ask about the story between her and Jian Xiaoyu and Zhang Yanshun......"
I don't know if the technology is not enough, in the process, Liu Rui actually lied about the story of Zhang Yanshun and Jian Xiaoyu.
Obviously not a player, why do you try so hard to deceive?
The answer is obvious,
She is related to that incident and the case of Jian Xiaoyu's death!
The murderous knife is naturally guilty,
But no matter how great the sin is, it is no greater, and the one who holds the knife ......
According to the list given by Liu Rui, Zou Xia shouted out the boys in the class who had a good relationship with Zhang Yanshun one by one for questioning.
Their performance is much the same,
Except for the boy who saw Zhang Yanshun's corpse with his own eyes, the other students are the kind of students who don't take the teacher seriously.
Chatting with them, looking into their eyes, the facial expressions can clearly show disdain, disobedience, what you want to say, what you don't want to say is nonsense.
"I'll just say it once, don't fix those vain things in front of me, it's useless!"
"Maybe you think that there are some things that you can't say, and some things, like what evil Zhang Yanshun has done, have nothing to do with you."
"But now Zhang Yanshun is dead, and Jian Xiaoyu is dead...... In our class, two classmates died in a row, is it a coincidence? ”
"No matter how obedient you pretend to be in front of me, it's useless, I'm not the murderer of Zhang Yanshun and Jian Xiaoyu, how can you guarantee that you won't be the next one targeted by the murderer?"
Under painstaking persuasion, he asked several students in a row, and Zou Xia finally heard what he wanted to hear.
"In fact, the only girl in the class who has not been bullied by Zhang Yanshun is Jian Xiaoyu."
Zhang Yanshun didn't dare to bully her, he said he...... He likes her, but Jian Xiaoyu doesn't seem to know, it should be a secret crush. ”
"Jian Xiaoyu's family background is good, her studies are also good, she has a wide range of knowledge, and she is the kind of girl who is very enthusiastic, and she is also very beautiful......"
"But some time ago, Jian Xiaoyu and Zhang Yanshun felt that something was wrong, we would be scolded when we mentioned her in front of Zhang Yanshun, Zhang Yanshun would become very irritable, we guessed, maybe it was a failure to confess? ...... But he didn't say either, what the truth is, we don't know. ”
"During the National Day, he seems to have said that he wanted to ask Jian Xiaoyu out, but I don't know what to do, but these Zhang Jianyu should know that he is a big celebrity around Zhang Yanshun, why would Zhang Yanshun call him, including drinking and eating with friends in society, Zhang Jianyu has a share!"
"Call Zhang Jianyu to me."
Zhang Jianyu is a small boy.
There is a faint smell of smoke on his body, and his hair is dyed dark brown, and he is the type that looks very mixed.
But he seems to be in very bad shape today.
There are thick dark circles around the eyes, and there is no such drowsy state on the body, but a bit like drinking so-and-so, a little abnormal alertness.
In Zou Xia's eyes, this reaction is a bit like ......
Excessive fright.
As usual, Zou Xia came up and scared two sentences first, but before he finished speaking, Zhang Jianyu explained everything with a frightened face.
"After the National Day, Zhang Yanshun asked Jian Xiaoyu, which was ill-intentioned."
I didn't know who he heard it from before, saying that Jian Xiaoyu had a boyfriend, so Zhang Yanshun was very angry, and later he talked to Jian Xiaoyu, but because of his style, he was sarcastically ridiculed by Jian Xiaoyu...... So he called a lot of people that day, saying that he was asking Jian Xiaoyu to go out, but in fact, it was just a group of people gambling under Jian Xiaoyu's building, taking advantage of her to throw out the garbage......"
The description after that is very close to the results of Zou Xia's autopsy on Jian Xiaoyu.
Zhang Yanshun pulled a group of social friends .......
And it's still a 'scuffle'......
In the process, Jian Xiaoyu struggled so badly that Zhang Yanshun couldn't get angry, so he stabbed Jian Xiaoyu with the knife he carried.
After stabbing 3 times in a row, Jian Xiaoyu stopped breathing on the spot.
……
Those who should go to the Internet café go to the Internet café, and those who should go home go home.
Everyone thought that this incident had never happened, but they didn't expect Zhang Yanshun to die, and the death would be so bizarre.
As for Zhang Jianyu, the reason why he told the truth was because he dreamed of Jian Xiaoyu last night, and Jian Xiaoyu in the dream was wearing retro heavy makeup and a red cheongsam, looking very beautiful.
She said that she wanted Zhang Jianyu to be her groom.
Zhang Jianyu was frightened, so he woke up from his dream, and when he woke up, he found that a lump of black hair appeared on his chest, and there was a pair of unfamiliar red embroidered shoes next to the bed.
He didn't have that kind of retro shoes at home, and he was sure that he had only seen such shoes on Jian Xiaoyu's feet in his dreams.
Later, no matter where Zhang Jianyu went, he felt that someone around him was watching him.
When he went to the bathroom, he would see illusions in the mirror and on the water, and he had even seen Jian Xiaoyu's face, like liquid, flowing out of the faucet.
The picture is very weird and terrifying.
He was woken up by a nightmare around 01:30 a.m. and still doesn't dare to close his eyes anymore.
Thinking of Zhang Yanshun's death and the fact that they killed Jian Xiaoyu by mistake that night, the suppressed fear in his heart suddenly surged up.
"Mr. Zou, I'...... I'm not going to get caught by the special forces, am I? ”
Zhang Jianyu asked nervously.
Zou Xia smiled when he heard this, and his smile was very sunny and pure: "You also participated in the process of dealing with Jian Xiaoyu that night, right?" ”
"Hmmm......"
"Then don't worry, the special team can't capture you, and your destination is not them!"
"What do you mean?"
"You'll know, let's go back to class first, I'll go to the office." After sending Zhang Jianyu away, Zou Xia's facial expression suddenly became gloomy.
office
Yang Ke was still deliberately holding Liu Rui's words, and after Zou Xia came in, he directly asked Liu Rui to go back to the class first.
"You don't want to know what she's hiding?"
"No, I've figured it out, and now we have a trickier situation!"
"What?"
"After Jian Xiaoyu and Zhang Yanshun, the third student who died has appeared!" Zou Xia said solemnly: "It was Zhang Yanshun's follower who died, Zhang Jianyu!" ”
He chatted with Zhang Jianyu, and felt that there was something wrong with this person.
The more clearly I communicated to him about the previous night, the weaker he became, and finally became like a dead man.
So the conclusion is very simple, Zhang Jianyu was gone last night, and the reason why he came to school as usual today is just that he hasn't realized his death yet.
He saw Jian Xiaoyu so many times last night, did Jian Xiaoyu just want to scare him? It's not realistic!
So once he recalled, Jian Xiaoyu appeared in the mirror, on the water, and in the faucet...... Whatever had been done to him, he would have died instantly.
"I'll go with you to see it." Yang Ke was secretly anxious.
"Don't worry, even if the third victim appears, it's too late for us to take measures!"
Zou Xia stopped Yang Ke, "I'm informing you because I've already deduced who the fourth victim is, and our goal is to protect her, not to focus too much on the other students who have died." ”
"The 4th victim?"
"Who is it?!"
Zou Xia sat down calmly, took a sip of the tea on Yang Ke's table, and leisurely spit out the name:
"Liu Rui!"
