Aoba Office

When my sister used the toilet in the morning, she found that the door of one of the stalls was locked.

The door lock of the school toilet is a simple latch, and it is generally impossible to lock the door from the inside.

Because there were many people going to the toilet at that time, some girls got impatient and bent down to peek through the gap under the door. No one was seen. They knocked on the door again, but no one answered.

"...It's possible that the door is broken and stuck somewhere. A few female classmates complained and then ignored it. At that time, there was no one inside the door... Was it that room? The first compartment." My sister asked for confirmation.

Li Xingfang smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. What else do you remember?"

"I went to the bathroom at noon, and the door was still closed, and someone looked at it. It was just after dinner, around 12:20." My sister thought and recalled.

"Well, what happens next? When did you find out that Wu Chenxi was missing?" Li Xingfang followed the lead.

"It's almost time for self-study. Self-study at one o'clock, but usually at a quarter past twelve, everyone should go back to the classroom. The teacher comes at one o'clock. At that time, Ouyang Xian found that Wu Chenxi was missing and asked if anyone had seen it. I went to the toilet to look for him again. There was also Zou Wenyan. The three of them had a good relationship. Zou Wenyan was in the next class. I saw Ouyang going to the next class, and then he took Zou Wenyan to the toilet together. Then... there was screaming... A girl is shouting, I don’t know who it is..." My sister shuddered.

I put my arm around my sister's shoulders.

My sister hugged me and continued with some stuttering: "Someone in our class went out to see, and a girl ran out from the toilet, saying that there were dead people, and there was a lot of blood... I, I stood at the door of the classroom and saw Zou Wenyan coming out of the toilet. Climb out. Ouyang was later dragged out..."

"When was the last time you saw Wu Chenxi?" Li Xingfang asked.

My sister lowered her head, "I don't know. I didn't pay attention while eating. She should be in the classroom during class... The seats in our class are all full."

"Okay. Classmate Lin, could you please go to the next classroom and wait for a while?" Li Xingfang said suddenly.

My sister looked up.

Chen Yihan looked at me.

"We have something to tell your brother." Li Xingfang smiled.

My sister grabbed my arm very hard.

"Don't worry, it's not a bad thing. It's about your classmate Ouyang. Did your brother send Ouyang home last time?" Li Xingfang said.

"What are you asking? I asked my brother for it. After I mentioned it to Ouyang, Ouyang said, I asked my brother for it." My sister said eagerly.

"Don't worry, it's not a bad thing. The main thing is to ask about classmate Ouyang. You don't know, right? Classmate Ouyang's aunt is an old resident of the community where your brother works." Li Xingfang reassured.

I looked at Li Xingfang in surprise, and then at Chen Yihan.

Chen Yihan nodded, "Ouyang Xiao's family was very excited and mentioned something about that community."

My sister looked at me nervously.

I patted my sister on the back, "Don't worry, it's okay. Didn't you just say that my colleague, Director Chen, is the niece? Please wait outside for a while..."

When I said this, I felt a little worried.

Li Xingfang had already called the police outside.

The policeman who came in was a policewoman.

"There are some students in the classroom nearby." Li Xingfang reassured his sister again.

My sister looked at me hesitantly.

I smiled at my sister.

The female police officer had a very gentle and friendly attitude. She took her sister out and asked her a few innocuous questions to make her relax.

The door closed and I looked at Chen Yihan seriously.

"I'm not lying, her aunt is really a former resident of Gongnong Village Six. She was sent to a nursing home by her family a few years ago, and the house was sold." Chen Yihan said calmly, "She has been cursing ever since she entered the nursing home. , saying that the children were unfilial and that they would all suffer retribution for selling their house. No one took it seriously at first."

Li Xingfang sighed: "She lives on the top floor, and her legs and feet are inconvenient. Her children also considered this and wanted to change her house, but she did not agree. This matter has been going on for several years, and later it became a gift to her. Entered a nursing home and sold the house. Ouyang Xiao's mother was the one with the best ideas in this matter, and Ouyang Xiao's father also helped handle the real estate sale - he knew a real estate agent."

Chen Yihan added: "The old lady had a son and two daughters, and they died of illness one after another in the past three years. She was still very angry and continued to curse people. She even called Ouyang Xiao's parents to tell them something about the house in the community. I gave them before When Ouyang Xiao's father came over, he was a little excited and mentioned this matter. Their family began to believe in the curse. "

"That has nothing to do with Wu Chenxi, right?" I asked in surprise.

"We don't know if there is a relationship. According to the people in Qingye, people like us committed crimes in our previous lives and will pay off our debts in this life. Anyone who has a relationship with us will not be a good person in his previous life." Li Xingfang laughed at himself.

"Then Wu Chenxi's death..." I couldn't help but look at Chen Yihan.

"I didn't see any traces. As for Captain Li, we have to wait until night to find out, right?" Chen Yihan turned his head and looked at Li Xingfang.

People from Qingye had approached Li Xingfang several times back then. He works in the police station and is a person with special abilities. The ghosts of those who died in vain may entrust him with dreams, and he has solved some cases because of this.

Li Xingfang twitched his lips, "I don't want to dream."

"Come with us to the scene now." Chen Yihan turned to look at me.

I hesitated, "Didn't you see Wu Chenxi's ghost?"

"No." Chen Yihan said.

I'm still a little hesitant.

Now that we are about to go, we really saw something. If we enter the dreamland at night, don’t we need to use our abilities again?

Ye Qing's instruction is not to let me actively use my abilities, but even if I'm passive, it's also a waste, right?

I don't want to cause Ye Qing any more trouble.

Wu Chenxi's tourmaline bracelet has been taken away by the police. Chen Yihan didn't see anything either. Her death should have nothing to do with Qingye.

But considering that the incident occurred so close to my sister, and that the person who died was a poor girl, I couldn't say no.

"Not suicide?" I asked.

Chen Yihan and Li Xingfang both shook their heads.

"There were signs of struggle at the scene. Wu Chenxi was dragged into the toilet, and his head was pressed, which separated the main artery in his neck." Li Xingfang said calmly, "Most of the blood was in the toilet, but Wu Chenxi had a lot of it on his body. Blood, and blood smeared on the toilet door and spattered on the wall."

I couldn't help but feel horrified when I heard Li Xingfang's description.

"Let's go." Chen Yihan had already stood up, "You don't want the school where your sister attends to be infiltrated by a crazy murderer or evil spirit, right?"

Chen Yihan's words left me speechless. I stood up silently and followed the two of them back to the teaching building.

The teaching building is now empty, and the women's restroom where the crime occurred has been cordoned off by the police. On-site inspection and evidence collection are still in progress.

The police reported to Chen Yihan that the search scope might need to be expanded, and Chen Yihan approved it.

I stared at the half-open door of the women's restroom, a little intimidated.

That door always gives me a strange feeling.

I haven't felt this way in a long time.

Because of Aoba's files "The People Outside the Door" and "Storytelling", I was very concerned about the door for a while. That concern has faded a lot, but now it has resurfaced.
