eighth story

Wu Qinyang drowsily finished his history of mathematics in the morning and advanced mathematics in the afternoon, and took his textbooks to another classroom for the class meeting.Wu Qinyang's drinking capacity is mediocre, even below average, and he seldom drinks during family dinners, let alone normal times. Fortunately, the alcohol content of beer is low. Although two bottles will not make him hangover, it is enough for him I was dizzy for a while.Mathematics history class often fell asleep, and there was no need to worry about the advanced mathematics at hand. Wu Qinyang yawned and went to the class meeting, in a trance, and didn't even notice that Zhu Mingyue had been secretly watching him.

Zhu Mingyue couldn't help feeling a little worried, and subconsciously clutched the advanced mathematics textbook in her hand, which contained the pink love letter, and just thinking about it made her heart beat wildly.Wu Qinyang only came to class without a schoolbag for the high math class on Monday afternoon. This was the conclusion Zhu Mingyue came to after secretly observing the first two weeks of school.Zhu Mingyue didn't have the courage to send a love letter face to face, and she couldn't casually flip through Wu Qinyang's schoolbag in front of others, and she was ashamed to ask others to hand it over, or went to the boy's building to plug the door in person, and decided to leave after discussing with the military adviser Ma Shanshan. Start with the daily habits, and strive to send out the love letter without any trace. In the end, the two of them agreed that the high math textbook on Monday afternoon was an excellent opportunity.

Zhu Mingyue took a peek at Wu Qinyang, and found that he was still sitting alone. She felt that this opportunity should not be wasted, and finally decided to put her plan into action.She used the sign-in sheet to cover the high mathematics textbook with the love letter in it, and when she walked in front of Wu Qinyang, her palms were still sweating, but she still pretended to be calm and shouted: "Wu Qinyang."

Wu Qinyang raised his head: "Squad leader?"

"Sign it first." Zhu Mingyue handed him a signing pen, pretending to be casual, "I think you are not in a good mood today, what's the matter?" Wu Qinyang's advanced mathematics book in his hand.Wu Qinyang was still terribly annoyed by the weird behavior of his parents, the train station where there were obviously hidden secrets, and half of the cabinets he had left, and Xuan Jue, who had avoided seeing him after the incident the night before yesterday, one after another. It made him feel bored.Although he wanted to find someone to express his unhappiness to, Zhu Mingyue was obviously not a candidate for him to consider. Wu Qinyang didn't want to say more, and said perfunctorily: "It's nothing."

Seeing that Wu Qinyang had no intention of talking, Zhu Mingyue secretly worried, wondering how to send her love letter if she couldn't divert his attention.Suddenly, he changed his mind, thought of another way temporarily, and said to Wu Qinyang: "By the way, Wu Qinyang, I don't quite understand the question that I just talked about before the end of class, can you explain it to me again?" ?” As he spoke, he took back the sign-in form on the table, quickly pulled out the love letter from his textbook, put it in the folded sign-in form, and then unfolded the book in front of Wu Qinyang.

Classmate Wu Xiao is willing to help others. He has always been a private high-level mathematics counselor in the class. At this moment, he has no reason to reject Zhu Mingyue. He thinks that even if it is to divert attention, he is willing to solve problems for his classmates.Wu Qinyang glanced at the problem that Zhu Mingyue pointed out to him. It was a curve integral application of the Stokes formula, which was fairly simple. Mingyue said it again.

Zhu Mingyue's heart was not at all on the high-level math problem, and she kept echoing "hmmmm" all the time, and finally asked: "Then what should be the result of this problem?"

"As a result, read my book." Wu Qinyang said, "I'll go out for a while." I'm embarrassed to say that I want to go to the toilet.

Zhu Mingyue felt that this was a god-given opportunity, and hurriedly said, "That's fine." Seeing Wu Qinyang go out, taking advantage of no one around to notice, she quickly put the crumpled love letter in Wu Qinyang's pocket In the book, while letting out a long sigh of relief, he hurried back to his place like a thief.Immediately afterwards, I sent a text message to Ma Shanshan—"Shanshan, I sent it out..."

Ma Shanshan quickly replied: "Good job!"

Zhu Mingyue: "You said that if he finds out now... what should I do>//_//<"

Ma Shanshan: "Sister, go forward boldly~"

Zhu Mingyue: "Be serious!"

Ma Shanshan: "I'm serious! Don't you like him! Don't you want to confess to him! If you regret it and want to see him flirting with other girls, then find a way to get it back quickly~ Girl, be brave yes!"

Zhu Mingyue didn't want to see Wu Qinyang and other girls flirting with each other, she flattened her mouth in anger in the face of Ma Shanshan's provocation, and saw that Wu Qinyang had returned from the corner of her eye, thinking that there was really no way out this time , his face was hot, and he was stared at by Wan Qi's eyes like "I know it all", and he was even more embarrassed.After Wu Qinyang came back, he casually put aside the high mathematics book and did not open it, so he was inexplicably relieved.

For things like confession... For things like falling in love, it's better for two people to be in private, right?

Zhu Mingyue regained her composure, seeing that Zhong Liyin had already arrived, she hurriedly got up and organized the class meeting.

"The theme of today's class meeting is safety education. Everyone can speak freely if you have any ideas." Zhu Mingyue said, "I'm just here to throw a brick to attract ideas. We are college students now, and we may want to start a business or work part-time to accumulate experience for the future. But when you see this kind of information, you must remember to keep your eyes open, some advertisements should not be trusted, right?"

This topic quickly resonated with others: "Yes, I read the news two days ago and said that someone was cheated out of the so-called 'registration fee' by a black intermediary..."

Everyone talked about it, from anti-fraud, anti-theft and fire prevention to personal safety.Wu Qinyang was out of his mind, and the moment he raised his head, he met Zhong Liyin's eyes, made a slight mistake, and realized that Zhong Liyin seemed to be looking at him.Wu Qinyang thought that this class meeting was more or less "because of me", maybe Zhong Liyin was dissatisfied that he didn't speak, but the incident during the winter vacation is not suitable to speak out, right... I didn't notice the look in Zhong Liyin's eyes at all A trace of strangeness.

Zhong Liyin cleared his throat, signaled to be quiet, and then said: "Everyone is right, so let me ask you a question, what should you do in case of an unexpected situation? Do you have any ideas?"

"If you encounter any dangerous emergencies, I think the most important thing is to inform others of the situation you have encountered." Wan Qi raised his hand and shook it, indicating that he had something to say, "On the Internet recently Everyone knows about the subway disappearance case, the two missing girls posted Weibo when they encountered unexpected situations, and let us know what happened..."

Wu Qinyang's expression changed, and now he is very sensitive to this topic, so he listened carefully.

"But I think that incident is very evil." Another humane said, "Didn't it mean that no one has been found yet? The first person has been missing for more than ten days, so many people have not found the one called 'Xuejun' ', this kind of information is meaningless at all. I'm not saying that leaving information is useless, but I just think the example you gave is not good."

"Didn't I happen to think about the recent events?" Wan Qi said, "There is a station with a name, and there is a direction. Finding people is also targeted. If there is no news, then it is a needle in a haystack. It is not as good as it is now."

"If the information left is false at all, and if it leads people's thinking astray, it will be a disservice." The other party continued to retort, "I don't think everything on the Internet can be trusted. In my opinion, those The microblogs are fake at all, maybe they were kidnapped, those microblogs were originally intended to mislead the public, but they didn’t expect things to become serious, what should they do if they jumped out and asked for a ransom and then they were arrested, so there has been no news.”

"But the Internet said that there is no record of her leaving the station at the subway station!" Wan Qi said, "How can the kidnapper hide in the subway station for more than ten days with someone alone? It's too ridiculous!"

"Maybe it's the work of the subway staff. It's not easy for internal staff to modify the records." The man was still relentless, "Besides, the subway is well connected, so the police may not be able to find all the subway stations..."

Seeing that a good discussion was about to turn into an intensified quarrel, Zhu Mingyue hurriedly stood up as a peacemaker: "You two stop talking, everyone is calm, calm~"

"I think this matter is very interesting." Zhong Liyin tapped the table twice with his fingers, signaled to be quiet again, and then smiled, "We don't have to jump to conclusions during the process. The point is that the person is missing. This is the fact No matter how you analyze it, our common purpose is to find someone, not to study supernatural events. The non-existent station may be true, and the kidnappers may be true, don’t you think?” Like something, "Speaking of which, I remember a story I read, which is quite similar to what happened this time."

Zhong Liyin said so, which naturally aroused everyone's curiosity, and someone asked: "What story, Brother Yin, please tell me? Maybe it really has something to do with this disappearance."

Zhong Liyin said: "This is a class meeting and not a tea party, let's talk about it when we have a chance."

Wu Qinyang looked up at Zhong Liyin, a little concerned about what he just said.Everyone was a little disappointed. Seeing this, Zhu Mingyue quickly changed the topic back to safety education, and ended the class meeting not long after.

Wan Qi ran to Zhong Liyin and said with a smile: "Brother Yin, let's tell a story~ We are all curious." Then he asked those students who did not leave behind, "Do you think so?"

The students in the back responded one after another, their faces were full of curiosity, Zhong Liyin looked at them helplessly, looked at his watch and felt that it was still early, and finally compromised: "Okay, then I will simply talk .”

"I saw it in a book." Zhong Liyin raised Erlang's legs, posed in a very casual posture, and continued, "Everyone knows that I am also a student of our university. This is when I first entered university. It’s been ten years. I really like reading books. After I went to college, I especially liked the library of our school. I went to the library to be a volunteer. If I remember correctly, that book is my sorting out old books. I saw it when I was there, and I was tired of moving things at that time, so I changed my mind."

"Then what is it talking about?" Some people can't wait to find out. It has a long history and is a secret hidden in the library. It is very interesting to hear.

"It's almost the same as this time." Zhong Liyin said, "There seems to be a serious news report, and the story is adapted based on it. It is said that it happened decades ago, maybe a few years ago, I forgot Which city is it? Anyway, the place is not big. I didn’t know there was such a place before I saw it. At that time, the subway was not as developed as it is now, and the public transportation was mainly buses, and the incident happened on the bus.”

Wu Qinyang was a little concerned at first, but Wan Qi asked Zhong Liyin exactly what he wanted, and now he was attracted by the words "a few years ago", remembering that Xuan Jue seemed to agree with this inference about time, he couldn't help it Looking up at Zhong Liyin, he found that his expression was normal, he didn't seem to know any secrets, just an ordinary storyteller.

Zhong Liyin continued: "In the beginning, someone was missing, and the speed of the mobile phone network was slow, and Weibo and other things didn't appear, so the news didn't spread, but the family members of the missing person reported the case to the police station, and the police opened a case for investigation. That's all, but slowly people realized that something was wrong. Because during that period of time, people came to report that someone was missing at home. At that time, the police suspected that someone was maliciously trafficking in people. Human trafficking was much more serious than a simple disappearance case. I put these several case files together and sorted them out, and soon discovered the problem."

"These missing people have all taken the bus on the day of their disappearance, just like the missing people have taken the subway this time." Zhong Liyin said, "At that time, the police thought this was a very important clue, but subsequent investigations showed that the missing The people were not on the same bus, and even the bus routes were different. The police fell into a stalemate... But later, the police in charge of this case had a flash of inspiration. He organized his staff and passed A large number of interviews and investigations determined the bus routes of the missing persons one by one, and asked people to find a bus map in the city at that time, and directly reflected the investigation results on this map. In this way, a new common The point is that these bus lines all go through the same station, but because it’s been so long, I can’t remember the name of this station.”

Everyone was fascinated by what they heard, and they were completely brought into the situation at that time by Zhong Liyin's narration.Someone whispered: "Isn't that the same as this time? The two missing people have passed through Tanghe Station..."

Wu Qinyang also thought of this. He was wondering if the station at that time might be the Xuejun station that appeared today, but he quickly denied this conjecture.If the station at that time was really related to Xuejun Station, it is impossible for Zhong Liyin to have no memory at all, at least he would feel familiar, so he would not say that he has lost his memory.

Another asked: "What happened after that?"

Zhong Liyin continued: "The police think this situation is very abnormal, because there are so many bus lines in the city, how come the bus that passes by this station has people missing? Isn't there a saying that 'if something is abnormal, it is a demon? 'Well. So the police immediately launched an investigation on this station, but unfortunately, nothing was found. At this time, the police received another report of disappearance. The person who reported the case was the distant cousin of the missing person, saying that the child had not returned for three days. Home. The police inquired about the situation in detail, and found that the child usually takes the bus to and from school, and the bus he took happened to pass by that station, so the police also investigated this case, but there were still no clues."

"But since the child disappeared, the police have never received a missing case related to the bus. It has been like this for about half a month. One night, the fire brigade suddenly received a call from a citizen, saying It was a bus that spontaneously ignited on the side of the road. The fire brigade dispatched urgently after receiving the alarm. The incident occurred at the station related to the disappearance. They extinguished the burning bus and found several charred bodies inside. dead body, but there was no driver in the bus. At this time, a witness pointed to a child on the side of the road, saying that he was the only person who got off the bus. The fire brigade took the child away in order to investigate the truth of the fire. When I went back, I found out that he was the last missing child in the previous serial disappearance case."

"The policeman in charge of investigating the disappearance came to question the child himself, wanting to know what happened to him on the bus and where the others went, but the child just didn't say anything, and no one could do anything about him. In the end, he had to be brought back home by his relatives. It didn’t take long for the investigation results of the fire to come out. The police found that those who died on the bus were those who had disappeared before. That's all. I remember that the station was demolished in the end, and the bus routes passing by that station were also modified accordingly. As for what happened in the first place, I'm afraid it can only remain a mystery." Zhong Liyin finally After telling the story, he said, "Okay, the whole story is almost like this, I may not remember some details, please don't mind."

Everyone was still full of ideas, and someone asked: "Mr. Zhongli, is this story you told true?"

Zhong Liyin said: "Who knows, I just read it, it can be regarded as street stall literature." After speaking, he raised his wrist and glanced at his watch, "Oops", and hurriedly said, "I forgot the time as soon as I said it, It's almost six o'clock, everyone hurry up and eat, that's all."

The students said one after another: "Goodbye, Teacher Zhongli." After speaking, they went to eat together in twos and threes.Wu Qinyang felt that he was very concerned about the story Zhong Liyin told. Seeing that the classmates in the classroom had already left, and Zhong Liyin was about to leave, he hurriedly said, "Mr. Zhongli! Wait a minute!"

There was an expected smile on the corner of Zhong Liyin's mouth, but he seemed puzzled and asked: "Wu Qinyang? What's the matter?"
