This NPC really has a problem

The cold wind howled, and on the roof, the hem of the clothes was rattling.

The light from the flashlight downstairs flickered wildly, and when it hit his eyes, Brother Zeng narrowed his eyes slightly.

Or, he should be called Zeng Ge.

He stood on the edge of the roof without guardrails, holding a knife in one hand, holding a shivering man hostage.The man's neck was cut with a bloodstain, and the seeping blood flowed into his clothes. Under the fear, he couldn't feel the pain in his neck, because almost only his heels were still standing on the roof. Zeng Ge didn't even need to move. As long as he let go of the knife, he will fall to the rooftop more than 15 meters high.

Downstairs is a hard concrete floor, even if you can't fall to your death, you will lose half your life.

Zeng Ge didn't pay attention to the man's begging, he listened carefully to the wind passing by his ears.

Zeng Ge didn't pay attention to what the people downstairs shouted.

He was still listening to it earlier, but there was nothing new to hear. It was nothing more than words that made him let go of the hostages, give up resistance, and strive for leniency.No one mentioned the tragedy nine years ago, Zeng Ge found it boring.

In that afternoon, after listening to the old man's entrustment, he never thought of turning back.

There was a bang behind him, and the iron door leading to the rooftop was knocked open.

Zeng Ge didn't move, he knew who it was when he heard footsteps.He was so familiar with Lu Ren that he could easily distinguish his footsteps.

"Zeng Ge!" Lu Ren shouted his name in a hoarse voice, with the smell of blood in his throat after strenuous exercise.

Zeng Ge suddenly felt guilty.

Lu Ren took a step forward, afraid of alarming Zeng Ge, he stopped again, panting and persuading: "Zeng Ge, don't be impulsive, let's find a solution together..."

Zeng Ge smiled: "Lu Ren, I'm killing people now."

Lu Ren was speechless.

Zeng Ge pushed the blade back a little indifferently, and the frozen wound was torn open again.Lu Ren didn't want him to kill people, he didn't have a position to prevent him from taking revenge, and he didn't want him to be punished, there was no such good thing in the world.

The man held hostage by Zeng Ge, Dongxi's head teacher, Zheng Pei, was in tears. He didn't even dare to yell loudly, as long as his vocal cords moved a lot, the blade would go deep into his neck.He heard someone coming to the rooftop, as if he had caught a life-saving straw, he endured the pain and shouted: "Help me! Help me!"

Lu Ren pinched his palms with his nails, as if this was the only way to calm himself down.He stared at Zeng Ge's back: "...why did you kill him?"

Zeng Ge laughed, but did not answer him, but slightly lowered his head to Zheng Pei's ear, and asked slowly, "Do you still remember Han Liu?"

Lu Ren saw that Zheng Pei's body trembled visibly.

"Speak." Seeing that Zheng Pei hadn't answered for a long time, Zeng Singer's knife slashed his neck, "Do you remember Han Liu?"

"Remember, remember." It was a simple word, but when Zheng Pei said it, he trembled unbearably.

Zeng Ge asked: "Do you think she was afraid when she fell down the stairs?"

Zheng Pei shook his head slightly: "I didn't kill her, I didn't kill her!"

"It's true that you didn't cause her to jump down the stairs," Zeng Ge said coldly, "but she was locked there, isn't it your responsibility?"

Zheng Pei felt cold all over.

It must have something to do with him... But no matter what, he wasn't the one who locked Han Liu in the bathroom!

"I know I was wrong... But I didn't intend to harm her, and I never thought they would do such a thing!" Zheng Pei saw the way out for a moment, and his voice raised a little, "You go to those who really hurt her!" Shouldn't they be the ones who killed her?"

"Are they..." Zeng Ge said softly, "You should know that many people disappeared from the decoration team during the winter vacation, right?"

Zheng Pei's body froze.

He had heard about the decoration team, but the school did not allow them to talk about it. Zheng Pei felt that this matter had nothing to do with him, and he did not delve into it.

What did Zeng Ge mean by...?

The conversation between Zeng Ge and Zheng Pei was clearly heard by Lu Ren.

He still remembered that Zeng Ge checked the personal information of the missing decoration workers in the decoration team. When Lu Ren asked about the connection between these workers, Zeng Ge replied that the missing people had no contact with each other.

Even the relationship between colleagues is different. Some people join the decoration team temporarily, while some are permanent members of the decoration team.

Lu Ren wouldn't doubt Zeng Ge, he easily believed Zeng Ge's words, and when thinking about the reason why the female ghost harmed people, he didn't start with the missing person, but thought that the female ghost attacked the lonely people indiscriminately at night.

But what Zeng Ge said just now clearly meant that the missing person was related to Han Liu.

Lu Ren was speechless.How many things did Zeng Ge hide from him?

There was a smile in Zeng Ge's voice, as if he was talking about something pleasant: "The first person who disappeared, he was wearing a pocket watch given to him by his wife, and that watch was used by his wife since he was a child. It can be said that once you see that watch, you can know who its owner is. Unfortunately, his wife was a student of Chaoyang Middle School, and what's more unfortunate, she was in the same class as Han Liu."

"After that man disappeared, his wife went to look for him. Although the pocket watch was no longer on him, it didn't matter. Han Liu wouldn't recognize that face even if it was so old and haggard."

"The third person is the younger brother of a classmate of Han Liu, who looks exactly like his sister..."

"The fourth person..."

Zeng Ge slowly talked about the connection between those missing from the decoration team and Han Liu, either he was a classmate of Han Liu himself, or someone close to him was a classmate of Han Liu.

"It's a pity that Qin Lian was missed at that time." Zeng Ge sighed regretfully.

Qin Lian is the name of the former dormitory teacher Qin.

"Did you really do what happened to Mr. Qin?" Lu Ren asked suddenly.

Zeng Ge narrowed his eyes: "You really realized that what happened to Qin Lian was done by a living person."

"It is rumored that Han Liu has never appeared outside the men's dormitory, even according to Teacher Qin, because he escaped from the dormitory in time, and Han Liu who was waiting for him in the duty room did not chase him out." Lu Ren said, "But he is in the dormitory." Something happened to my hometown."

"He secretly told me one thing, you don't know." Zeng Ge said.

"He told me exactly what happened the night he saw Han Liu." Zeng Ge said, "The moment Qin Lian saw her, he recognized that it was the girl who fell from the upstairs and died on the spot. , it is impossible for him not to recognize that face, he will never forget it for the rest of his life."

"Before she fell, she was blocked in the public bathroom on the third floor. The people who blocked her there were her classmates in the same dormitory. Qin Lian passed by there when he was on patrol. Those girls hadn't left at that time. Qin Lian He obviously heard them insulting Han Liu, but he didn't stop them. Even when Han Liu saw him calling for help through the crack of the door, he didn't say anything.

"He told me that the conflicts between students are not in his control, let alone the conflicts between girls.

"He just went away."

Zeng Ge said coldly: "He passed by there again later."

"At that time, those girls had already left, and Han Liu was locked in the bathroom. Han Liu didn't expect that what the girls who locked her in didn't know was that the pervert who sneaked into the women's bedroom during that time was hiding here. in the bathroom.

"She kept calling for help, but Qin Lian didn't save her, and neither did the students nearby.

"Until... she fell down the stairs."

"Qin Lian didn't dare to tell others about this matter. He helped the leaders of Chaoyang Middle School to conceal the reason behind Han Liu's fall, and stayed here for another nine years. There are only two people in our office, but he still He only told me the truth about the past, and he also knew that he was not innocent at all, and even one more person would be afraid to know the mistakes he made."

Zeng Ge sneered and said: "Because of emotional problems, he committed suicide by jumping off a building... Heh, how many people didn't know what happened back then, and if they unified their rhetoric, they could deceive themselves into being innocent, as if this matter had nothing to do with me ?!"

As Zeng Ge said, tears fell from his eyes, his eyes were hazy, and the dazzling flashlight made him want to close his eyes.

The world in his eyes is a strange one.

He remembered that he begged his parents to ask the police to investigate the cause of his sister's death, and asked the school to give an explanation, but the parents only accepted the "argument" of compensation given by the school, and would rather let the murderer who killed his daughter go free than pursue it. .

He remembered that he grabbed the policeman's arm and begged him to find out the cause of his sister's death, but the policeman who had already negotiated with the school to suppress the news shook off his hand.

He remembered that he sneaked into the public bathroom on the third floor through the window through which his sister fell at night, bit the flashlight and reconstructed what happened that night through the traces of struggle inside, knowing that an adult man had sneaked in here.He took his sister's diary and used the evidence he found to find the school leader, but he was kicked out of the school. When he sneaked in again, he found that the evidence had been cleaned up and disappeared.

"For my own vanity, I just watched her being pushed out and bullied because of unnecessary things... Have you ever felt guilty?" Zeng Ge asked Zheng Pei while grabbing Zheng Pei's hair.

Zheng Pei's legs were shaking, and only Zeng Ge's hand holding his hair kept him standing on the roof: "I knew I was wrong, I really knew I was wrong..."

"What do you know?" Zeng Ge said coldly, "Your guilt is that after she died, you blamed her for causing trouble to you in front of others, and yelled at her that she would not let people live in peace after death. Are you guilty?"

Zheng Pei couldn't argue, so he kept apologizing and begged Zeng Ge to let him go.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me... I, my wife has money!" Zheng Pei said incoherently, "You don't want to die either, right? As long as you let me go, my wife can bribe the people in the court, and you You don't want to be sentenced to death, do you?!"

Zheng Pei glanced down and saw his wife downstairs looking up in horror, as if seeing a savior.

However, Zeng Ge's words made him fall into an ice cellar: "Trash!"

"How could my sister fall in love with someone like you?" Zeng Ge gritted his teeth, "How could she die because of a trash like you, and why would she die because of a trash like you?!"

For his own vanity, he slandered his sister for liking him and harassing him. Even the cause of his sister's death was said to be because he refused her pursuit and committed suicide...Why?

Why is it that such a scumbag is promoted every step of the way after his sister is dead?Why is it that his sister's future is so easily destroyed, but he doesn't care that he killed someone?

The policeman downstairs shouted with a loudspeaker: "...Don't be impulsive! Give up resistance, turn around and do it!"

Zeng Ge's eyes were indifferent.

"Lu Ren," he suddenly mentioned Lu Ren's name, "do you still remember those books that Qin Lian put in the drawer?"

Lu Ren was startled.

Zeng Ge said with a smile in his voice, "You must have never opened it once, have you?"

After he finished speaking, he suddenly took Zheng Pei with him and let himself fall from the rooftop.

The screams seemed to cut through the night.

However, Lu Ren felt that there was silence between the heaven and the earth, and it seemed that Zeng Ge's figure at the moment when he fell was still in front of his eyes.
