The Book of Death by Heart Poison

The school uniforms of the Nineteenth Middle School are typical "fat and ugly", and students are not willing to wear them, but according to the school's regulations, disciplinary points will be deducted for not wearing school uniforms. Class 5 is an experimental class, the students are relatively not so arrogant, and most of them are honestly wearing school uniforms.

Zhang Aiyi was an exception.

She was wearing a Japanese uniform with a purple striped bow tie on her chest. She was tall and had a good face. If you looked closely, you could see that she was wearing very light makeup.

Putting on make-up, not to mention in the experimental class, even if you look at the whole Nineteenth Middle School, it is absolutely different.

"I'm an art student, and I've passed the professional exam. Number one." Zhang Ai raised his index finger, raised his face slightly, arrogant and proud, "As for the cultural class, hmph, since I can stay in the experimental class, Then there is no problem in crossing the line, and in the last month, I don’t have to work hard anymore.”

Art students are very common, but there are not many art students who can squeeze into the experimental classes of key high schools.Hua Chong has a copy of Zhang Aiyi's mid-term exam report card in his hand. His grades in all subjects are good, especially in mathematics. The total score ranks in the upper middle.

"You seem to have a lot of dissatisfaction with Wang Yuxia, Teacher Wang?" Hua Chong put down the report card and looked at the girl.

Zhang Ai asked back: "Have you found her?"

Hua Chong shook his head, "There is no news yet."

"Then why are you here again?" Zhang Aiyi stared, "Oh, I see, because another teacher disappeared, right? No. [-] Middle School, our school's competitor. So you are returning to the first case of disappearance The school where it happened, are you going to restart the investigation?"

Hua Chong smiled, "It seems that you have a lot of ideas about these cases."

"I'm not like the nerds in our class. I only know how to memorize and do questions all day long." Zhang Aiyi tapped on his temple, "I like to use my brain, so I can learn better than them with less time. I still have professional skills..."

This is a student with a strong desire to express, if she lets go of the conversation, she may be able to talk for a day and a night, Hua Chong reminded in time: "Just now in the classroom, what I heard from you is that Teacher Wang once caused you discomfort. A small injury?"

Zhang Aiyi's expression changed immediately, and disgust and disdain appeared in his eyes, "Everyone says she is a model teacher, and that she is popular with students. She, she is not worthy at all!"

Hua Chong asked: "Why?"

"She looked down on art students. She looked down on me from the first year of high school, thinking that I didn't deserve to be in her class. But I was admitted based on my grades, and I never fell out." Zhang Aiyi said angrily: " Moreover, she is teaching a liberal arts class, and there are many girls in the liberal arts class, and she is a woman herself, but she hates girls!"

Hua Chong frowned slightly, "Hate girls? How do you say that?"

Wang Yuxia is the most popular class teacher voted by the students. If she really hates girls as Zhang Aiyi said, it must be reflected in her daily teaching. How could the girls in the class vote for her?

"She is very good at pretending, and created a 'mother' persona for herself, as if she cared for us, but she only likes good-looking boys." Zhang Aiyi said: "Those idiots in our class spend all day doing questions, Of course I don’t know. I want to draw, and I don’t have much time in class. I often practice in the art building. I saw her take beautiful boys from other grades to make up lessons in empty classrooms. You said she is a Chinese teacher. What’s the matter? Is it easy to make up lessons? She just wants to take advantage of those little boys!"

A single female teacher in her 50s, on the surface, treats all students equally and is deeply loved by the students, but secretly takes advantage of the male students?

This is really sensational.

But this is just one side of Zhang Aiyi's words.

Hua Chong said: "Take advantage of boys, this is just your guess."

"Why do you ask me if you don't believe me?" Zhang Aiyi showed his displeasure clearly on his face, "And do you think this is the only thing? There are others!"

"Huh? What else?"

"Wang Yuxia has two houses. One is outside the school. It's an old house. She lives in it herself. The other is inside the school. It's a new building. She rents out the new building to students. All of them are male students!"

Hua Chong has also encountered cases involving schools in the past, and has a certain understanding of teachers renting houses to students.

Usually, in order to avoid unnecessary troubles, those who live in the same teacher's house are either all boys or all girls.It is not surprising that Wang Yuxia rented the house to boys at first glance, but considering that she is single and lives alone all year round, if she wants to avoid criticism, it seems that she should rent the house to girls.

"I made a boyfriend last year. I rented her house in the freshman year of high school. He has five roommates." Zhang Ai said surprisingly, "My little boyfriend is very good-looking. Maybe he will become a star. He told me personally that when he was taking a bath, Wang Yuxia forcibly entered the bathroom on the pretext of holding a comb."

If what Zhang Aiyi said earlier is not enough to explain anything, but the latter one has to be taken seriously.

There is a difference between men and women, and even if there is a huge age difference, when one party is bathing, the other party should not intrude-no matter what the reason.

The boy Zhang Aiyi mentioned was Ge Meng. When Liu Zhiqin found him, he was practicing in the dance studio.

As Zhang Aiyi said, this is indeed a very delicate-looking boy, who is as light as a swallow when he dances, and looks like a well-behaved porcelain doll when he stands quietly.

"I don't live in Teacher Wang's house anymore." Ge Meng spoke softly, completely different from Zhang Aiyi, "I live in another teacher's house now, which is very convenient."

Liu Zhiqin asked: "Is what Zhang Aiyi said true?"

Ge Meng lowered her head, pursed her lips a few times, and then nodded, "Yes."

Liu Zhiqin's expression turned cold, "What exactly is going on?"

According to Ge Meng, although many teachers rent out their houses to students, they only rent out a few of them, leaving the master bedroom for self-occupation.He took a fancy to Wang Yuxia's house at that time because Wang Yuxia didn't live with the students.But I didn't expect that Wang Yuxia would come back every now and then, especially before noon and evening self-study.Sometimes I send some fruit, sometimes I walk around several bedrooms and use the bathroom.

Ge Meng finished dancing that day and was drenched in sweat. He was going to take a bath before studying at night.

Because all the people living together are boys, and occasionally someone will come in to use the toilet when taking a shower, so no one will lock the door—unless Wang Yuxia is there.

When Ge Meng entered the bathroom, Wang Yuxia hadn't come back yet.

In the middle of washing, Ge Meng suddenly heard Wang Yuxia knock on the door, saying that she would come in to get a comb.Ge Meng quickly said no, but Wang Yuxia pushed the door open.

"I didn't even have time to block it with a towel." Ge Meng's voice became lower and lower, her cheeks flushed, "The comb is on the sink, very close to the shower, and she didn't go out right away after taking it, just staring at me..."

Liu Zhiqin asked: "Have you ever had physical contact?"

This question was relatively tactful, but Ge Meng still understood, and shook her head: "No, so I can't sue her either. She just loves to look at me, maybe she looks at other people. I dare not say, I just talk to Sister Ai." I mentioned it. Sister Ai told me to move out. She disappeared when I was looking for a house."

Liu Zhiqin said: "Have you ever thought about finding teachers and parents?"

Ge Meng shook her head vigorously, "She is so popular with students, I don't have good grades, and my personality is not good. Except for Sister Ai, who would believe me?"

The evening self-study of the third grade of Nineteen Middle School lasted until 10:50, and the rest of the campus was quiet when the bell was rung.

Liu Zhiqin and Hua Chong left from the school gate next to the art building, and not far ahead was the old community where Wang Yuxia lived.

Zhang Aiyi and Ge Meng provided a very important clue - the seemingly perfect Wang Yuxia may not be perfect, not only imperfect, but also a serious personality stain as a teacher.

But the problem is that neither Zhang Aiyi nor Ge Meng can produce evidence.

There seems to be little evidence for such a thing.

After Wang Yuxia disappeared, the five boys who lived at home went to other teachers' homes. Liu Zhiqin initially learned from them that Wang Yuxia did often come back for no reason, and pushed open the bedroom door without permission, which made people feel quite sad. unhappy.

But the incident of forcibly pushing the bathroom door open did not happen a second time.

"Based on the previous investigation results of the Chuanming task force, if Zhang Aiyi and Ge Meng did not lie, this may be the only stain on Wang Yuxia." Hua Chong walked a little slowly, looking at the not-so-bright street lights ahead, "She did not Causes substantial harm to students, but it varies from person to person, some people may be greatly affected by it, and some people think it is an unforgivable sin for a teacher."

Liu Zhiqin was two steps behind, looking at Hua Chong's shadow on the ground, "This can indeed be regarded as a motive. But how did the perpetrator know that Wang Yuxia has this habit? In the eyes of most teachers and students , Wang Yuxia is impeccable. Either, like Ge Meng, he had a similar encounter with Wang Yuxia, or, or he stayed out of the matter, but was an insider?"

Hua Chong said: "Is Wang Yuxia's stain a common stain of missing persons?"

As they said that, the two had already walked downstairs to the unit where Wang Yuxia lived.

This is also the teaching and staff building of the [-]th Middle School, but because the building is too old, the supporting facilities can't keep up, except for the retired old teachers who are used to living in it, everyone else has basically moved out.

It was already late at night, and few households in the building were still lit.Hua Chong walked in and saw many psoriasis advertisements on the wall in the dim light.

Wang Yuxia lived on the third floor, and the lights on the third floor happened to be broken, so it was pitch black.

"If you want to take a person away in this kind of place, it's easy and easy to say, but it's also difficult to say." Liu Zhiqin said: "There is a lack of monitoring, and the perpetrator doesn't have to worry about being photographed. There are many people, and most of the traces he leaves will be was destroyed. But also because there are many people, there are many uncertainties, and it is difficult for him to guarantee that he will not be seen."

"Wang Yuxia stayed at night self-study on October 10th, and disappeared from after 25 o'clock on the 25th to the early morning of the 11th." Hua Chong said: "If it is midnight or before dawn, it is relatively easy for the perpetrator to start."

The Chuanming police had already investigated 3-2. The two of them came here today mainly to see the surrounding environment. It was already late and they did not intend to enter the house to check.Just as he was about to leave, he heard a sound from the door lock, the door opened, and a young woman stood by the door.

Her eyes were red and she looked very haggard. There was no light in the room, and her hair was disheveled and she was wearing a long white dress.

This picture is really shocking.

Hua Chong sized her up for a moment, then asked, "Wang Yu?"

Wang Yu was Wang Yuxia's daughter. When Wang Yuxia's accident happened, she was working out of town.

"Who are you?" Wang Yu asked.

Liu Zhiqin showed his ID, "Police."

Wang Yu's expression suddenly became terrified and sad, "Did you find my mother? She, she..."

Since there are people in the room, it's okay to go in and have a look, Liu Zhiqin said: "Not yet, can we go in?"

Wang Yu was stunned for a moment, and quickly turned on the light in the living room, "Yes."

This is a two-bedroom house with simple decoration and old furniture. Everything is in the style of the last century.Even in the living room, there is an entire shelf of teaching books, which makes it clear at a glance that this is the residence of a high school Chinese teacher.

"My mother usually corrects homework and prepares lessons here." Wang Yu pointed to the table next to the bookshelf, his voice choked up, "The police came last time and asked my mother if she had offended anyone. How could she offend anyone? Her whole life Dedicated to teaching, I really can't think of anyone who would harm her."

Hua Chong and Liu Zhiqin looked at each other.Wang Yuxia is two completely different people in the hearts of her daughter and some students. The daughter thinks that she is selfless and her disappearance is a sudden disaster, but Zhang Aiyi thinks that Wang Yuxia has misbehavior and deserves everything that happens.

"I heard that someone specifically killed the teacher. Is it true?" Wang Yu obviously couldn't accept that his mother was killed. "I saw you just now. I was afraid that you said you found my mother and asked me to identify the body..."

Hua Chong said a few words of reassurance, "Next, I want to ask some more personal questions."

Wang Yu wiped away his tears, "Okay, you ask."

"Your mother divorced when you were in primary school. Have you ever thought of remarrying?"

Wang Yu's eyes widened in surprise, "No, she never told me that."

According to Wang Yu's recollection, the parents divorced because his father was in business and had a lover outside.Wang Yuxia has a strong personality and cannot accept such things, and even has a bad feeling for men.When Wang Yu was studying, he believed that his mother did not get married because of himself.When she was in college, she persuaded her several times, both openly and secretly, but Wang Yuxia said that she had no time and energy, and she just wanted to take good care of her students.

"Is this related to my mother's disappearance?" Wang Yu asked eagerly.

Hua Chong didn't tell Wang Yu about Wang Yuxia watching the boys take a bath, but asked subtly: "Did Wang Yuxia mention the students in her class and the students who rented a house to you?"

"Ah!" Wang Yu's tone changed, as if he hesitated to speak.

Hua Chong asked patiently: "Did you think of something?"

"The house in the school is rented out by my mother to students, and it is always rented to boys. I mentioned to her that she is a single female teacher and should be rented to female students. It is more convenient, and no one else will." It's easy to gossip." Wang Yu shook his head helplessly, "But what my mother means is that she already has a daughter like me, and she wants to experience the feeling of raising a son. I still think it's not good, but she insists, so I will Let her go."

"I want to experience what it's like to raise a son." On the way back to the Municipal Bureau, Liu Zhiqin thought about this sentence, "If Wang Yu knew what her mother was doing in the rented house, I don't know what it would be like."

Hua Chong rested his right hand on the car window, and said after a long while: "This case has dragged on for too long. If the investigation of interpersonal relationships is carried out immediately after the disappearance, it may not fall into a deadlock."

Liu Zhiqin turned his face away, "Don't you want to go to Jianshan Vocational High right now?"

Hua Chong came back to his senses, smiling a little tiredly, "I think so, but my energy doesn't allow me to sleep."

"It's good to know." Liu Zhiqin suddenly stretched out his hand and patted Hua Chong's head.

Hua Chong immediately regained his energy, "Hey, why did you suddenly move your hands and feet?"

"You are allowed to touch me, and I am not allowed to touch you?" Before withdrawing his hand, Liu Zhiqin deliberately flicked Hua Chong's hair.

Hua Chong: "...some people are full of energy."

Liu Zhiqin: "Some people just want to take revenge."

This time the special operations team lived in the dormitory of the Chuanming Municipal Bureau. Hua Chongben planned to take Liu Zhiqin to the gate of the No. [-] Middle School before going back to the dormitory.

However, as soon as the car stopped at the city bureau, Liu Zhiqin pulled his arm.

"Huh?" Hua Chong turned around, and immediately saw Hua Linmao standing at the gate of the Municipal Bureau.

Hua Chong suddenly frowned.

It wasn't so obvious when we met during the day, but now that it was late at night, Hua Linmao was holding a bag and stretching his neck to look around, looking old and thin.

This is an old man after all.

"He should be waiting for you." Liu Zhiqin said, "It seems that he has been waiting for a long time."

Hua Chong felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.

His relationship with his family is very indifferent. Hua Linmao basically did not fulfill his responsibilities as a father when he was in his prime, but in terms of abuse, there was no such thing as abuse.

Hua Linmao looked in the direction of the two of them, saw the person, his expression became cramped and a little happy, he waved his hand, and immediately walked over quickly.

Hua Chong stood still.

"I asked someone to find out, you live in the bureau." Hua Linmao's sparse gray hair was blown by the night wind, and he lifted the pocket in his hand, "This is the ribs and lotus root soup that your aunt and I made. The lotus root is crispy. Lotus root, take it and taste it."

The thermos was pushed in front of him, Hua Chong hesitated, but took it anyway, "Thank you."

"No thanks, no thanks." Hua Linmao quickly waved his hands, "How long will you stay here?"

Hua Chong said, "Not necessarily, it depends on the progress of the case."

Hua Linmao nodded, "Then I'll come and bring you food tomorrow."

Hua Chong hurriedly said: "No need!"

Hua Linmao opened his mouth, with a sad look on his face, "I know you blame me in your heart. When you were young, I didn't take good care of you. Later, I wanted to make up for it, but you don't need it anymore."

Hua Chong had mixed feelings for a while.

"You just let me give it to you." Hua Linmao used to be considered strong, but now his eyes are a little pleading, "It's fine if you're not at home, but now that you're back, I can't pretend I don't know .”

Liu Zhiqin said: "We came back late, it's not good for you to wait outside all the time, how about this, you must deliver it, and put it at the door of the dormitory, the flower team will see it."

Hua Linmao looked at Liu Zhiqin, then turned to Hua Chong.

Hua Chong lowered his eyes, his expression was unclear, and he said after a while: "Let's put it at the door of the dormitory."

Hua Linmao laughed twice, "Okay, okay, then I'll go back."

"Be careful." Hua Chong warned.

Liu Zhiqin touched Hua Chong's arm again, and whispered, "It's almost 12 o'clock."

Hua Chong took a deep breath, "Then you accompany me to see him off."
