love story

In the evening, Yang Cong returned to the police station from outside and found Lin Xin in the file room. She and Mei Hua were discussing the case.

"How about, what did you find?"

Lin Xin was writing and drawing on the paper, and raised her head to ask him, but her hands didn't stop at all.

Yang Cong handed the small notebook in his hand to her, and said: "What can be confirmed at present is that we have found three teachers who used to teach with Lu Hongyun, but they are all retired."

"Thanks a lot."

Lin Xin smiled and pointed to the chair beside her, beckoning him to sit down, and pushed the mineral water bought outside in front of him.

Yang Cong said, "Thank you, Sister Lin."

Then, he opened the cap of the bottle of mineral water and gulped it down.

Lin Xin scanned the information in the notebook at a glance, and asked, "Who is Xie Hanyu?"

Yang Cong put down the mineral water, and said, "She was Lu Hongyun's closest friend when she was teaching in a Catholic middle school, and she taught physics."

Lin Xin nodded and said, "Well, there is no conflict between subjects and teaching, no wonder we can become friends, continue."

Yang Cong said: "She said that when she came to the Catholic Middle School on the first day, the first person she came into contact with was Lu Hongyun. It's embarrassing to say that she came on that day, which is the period that women usually come every month, and she didn't prepare hygiene around her. Towel, Lu Hongyun relieved her of her predicament. Later, because she was a newcomer, Lu Hongyun helped her in many ways, making her familiar with everything in the school as soon as possible."

"At that time, the two of them quickly became friends. Lu Hongyun was very serious in her work and did not allow any flaws. Even when treating students, she did her duty as a teacher. When the scandal of teacher-student love was exposed, she did not believe in herself for a while. The Lu Hongyun I knew was such a person, but seeing that she didn't defend herself at all, so I had no choice but to believe it."

"There were several teachers who became friends with Lu Hongyun and advised her to go away and start again in a place that no one knew. Moreover, with her academic achievements, she can definitely develop abroad. Besides, Lu Hongyun has been growing up since she was a child. Without her father, she was dependent on her mother, and after she went to college, even her mother left her, so she is an orphan without father or mother."

When Yang Cong said this, he glanced at Lin Xin and said, "Lu Hongyun's background is very pitiful."

Lin Xin said indifferently: "It's pitiful, but we must be objective. Maybe there are some clues in the middle. What about the other two teachers?"

Yang Cong said: "The other two said the same thing. They both said that Lu Hongyun is a responsible, cautious and gentle woman. Although she has high demands on her students and even herself, she is very gentle and not irritable. As long as she She is her student, and everyone respects her. And they all say that Lu Hongyun is a goddess. Even the principal at that time covered her up because of her incident. It seems that the principal loves her very much. .”

"Principal Shang Donghai?" Lin Xin asked.

"Yes, it's Shang Donghai." Yang Cong said.

"Onion, do you think Lu Hongyun is pretty?" Lin Xin asked suddenly.

"Sister Lin, what do you mean by asking this?"

Yang Cong blushed, quite embarrassed.

Lin Xin smiled slightly and said, "Nothing interesting, just asking your opinion."

"Looking at the photos, of course I think it's beautiful."

Yang Cong stammered, and glanced at Mei Hua, only to see that she pursed her lips and tried her best to hold back a smile.

"Don't be nervous, I asked the same question to Mei Hua just now." Lin Xin said.

"Meihua, do you think Lu Hongyun is pretty?" Lin Xin turned to look at her.

"It's pretty." Plum Blossom replied.

"Well, I think it's pretty too." Lin Xin said.

Yang Cong scratched his hair, not understanding what the two women meant.

Lin Xin looked at Yang Cong again, and said, "I was thinking that she is so beautiful, and she is so gentle with colleagues and students as you said, even Meihua and I, who are women, can't bear to harm her, let alone her. Let alone a man. However, who killed her in such a frenzy, or even what kind of hatred and violence was committed against her, I really can't figure it out. What is the murderer's motive for killing? hurt her."

Lin Xin stood up, walked around the file room, put her hands behind her back, and lowered her head to think.

After hearing Lin Xin's last words, Yang Cong asked, "Sister Lin, you said that after she was expelled, you still wanted to hurt her. Could it be that there are other people deliberately slandering her relationship with that student?" , want to destroy her reputation? Or is someone deliberately spreading rumors? And after she was fired, that person was still unwilling to kill her?"

Lin Xin turned her head and said: "I'm not sure if she really has a teacher-student relationship with that boy, but I think there must be something strange in it, but I can't figure out why, I always feel that this teacher-student relationship is not simple."

The three of them were silent for a long time in the file room. Lin Xin suddenly thought of Leng Yu, and wondered what she would think about the case.

No, no, why would you want to know her opinion?It must be because of this case that I haven't slept well these days, and I've gotten into a dead end. I can definitely solve the case by myself, and I don't need her opinion.

Leng Yu is a woman without emotion, but because of her hard heart, she is not so easily influenced by the victim or perpetrator of the case. This has always been her strong point, she is not affected by any emotion, and she judges rationally one thing.

"By the way, Sister Lin, there is an old teacher's dormitory building in the Catholic Middle School. Teachers from other places used to live there. Although Lu Hongyun is from this city, she has no parents, and she has never heard of any relatives, so she also lives there. There." Yang Cong said.

"The old dormitory building?" Lin Xin asked.

"Yes, but it's blocked and no one lives there," Yang Cong said.

"Why?" Lin Xin and Mei Hua asked in unison.

"I heard it's haunted." Yang Cong said.

Suddenly, a gust of cold wind blew in from outside the window, and the three of them trembled.

"How can there be ghosts in this world? I don't believe it." Lin Xin said.

"How do you say it's haunted?" Plum Blossom asked curiously.

"I questioned those teachers just now. They all said that not long after Lu Hongyun was expelled, it was spread that she committed suicide because of her unbearable career downhill. The lights in the room where the teacher used to live were always on, and they were obviously turned off, but they suddenly flickered on." Yang Cong said.

"Is there a problem with the circuit? After all, that dormitory is very old." Lin Xin said.

"Then, they also said that after the rumors of her death spread, sometimes the security guards patrolling in the middle of the night would hear a little sound coming from the room." Yang Cong continued.

"After all, no one is living in the room, so it can't be a mouse or a cockroach?" Lin Xin said.

"That's why the teachers all asked to build another building, and no one would dare to live in the old one. Then, I just told them that Lu Hongyun's skeleton was found in the playground..." Yang Cong said.

"Well, since the Federation has issued an order to investigate the case, we don't need to hide it anymore. However, now that Lu Hongyun is really dead, these teachers who heard the rumors back then will be even more shocked, and moreover I am sure that Lu Hongyun's ghost really returned back then."

When Lin Xin said the last few words, her voice was gloomy.

"Sister Lin, why are you scary?" Mei Hua said.

"Do I look scary to you?"

Lin Xin raised her right lip, revealing her white teeth, and looked at them with gloomy eyes.

Willow and Plum Blossom: "......."

"Okay, let's stop talking nonsense. Onion, check the whereabouts of the headmaster Shang Donghai. Meihua, let's go to the haunted house to explore tonight."

Lin Xin put away her face and ordered.

"What?? Why did you choose to go there at night?" Plum Blossom asked in surprise.

"Because ghosts only appear at night, if you don't choose night, why not choose daytime? Let's go, I'm here, what are you afraid of?" Lin Xin stared at her.

Yang Cong looked at Mei Hua with a trace of pity, and spread his hands.

Who dares to disobey what the boss ordered, and she must have another purpose if she plans to go at night.

The two came to the entrance of the Catholic Middle School, and said to the security guard who was in charge of the school at the entrance: "We are the police sent by Yang City, and we are here to inspect the old teachers' dormitory building in response to the discovery of the skeleton."

After all, he took out the police ID for the security guard to look at.

The security guard was a middle-aged man about 40 years old. Holding a flashlight, he asked uncertainly, "Are you really going to go at this time?"

Lin Xin nodded and said, "Yes."

The security had no choice but to hold a flashlight, pick up a bunch of old or even rusted keys, and lead the way without saying a word.

The three of them walked through a large playground and stood in front of a building. Lin Xin glanced over and saw that the building was eight stories high and was already dilapidated, with most of the paint peeling off.

"Is this the school's old teachers' dormitory building?" Lin Xin asked the security guard.

The security guard replied, "Yes."

"Which floor did Lu Hongyun live in before? Which room, do you know?" Lin Xin asked.

"I know." The security guard said.

"Okay, then you lead the way, let's go up and have a look." Lin Xin said.

The security guard seemed a little scared and asked, "Really going up?"

Lin Xin looked up at the dark sky and saw a bright moon hanging high in the sky.

"Well, let's go up, anyway, the moon is shining, and with your flashlight, we won't get lost."

The tone is extremely firm, beyond doubt.

The security guard had no choice but to go upstairs first with a flashlight, Mei Hua walked in the middle, and Lin Xin was behind.

The three of them came to the fourth floor, and the security guard walked forward, only to see a long corridor in the middle of the building on the fourth floor, with rooms on both sides, which looked bleak under the moonlight.

Moreover, some of the doors have been dilapidated, and some urchins have even splashed paint on them. Some of the doors have been written with a lot of foul language, and it has been abandoned for a long time.

The security guard pointed to a room numbered 405, and said, "This is Lu Hongyun's room back then."

Lin Xin nodded, seeing that the security guard hadn't moved, she asked, "Why didn't you go in?"

The security guard said: "To tell you the truth, I really don't dare to go in. Everyone knows that this place is haunted. I have heard from other security guards that they have seen Lu Hongyun's ghost before."

"Bah! What nonsense, you go in quickly, if there is a ghost, I will ask someone to save you." Lin Xin said.

"Officer, just let me go..." the security guard said.

"Okay, then give me your flashlight, I will go in with her, and you can stand outside alone and bask in the moon."

Lin Xin said, as if she wanted to take his flashlight.

The security guard immediately withdrew his hands and said, "Then what if something happens to me outside without a flashlight?"

"You just call, I will come out naturally when I hear the cry." Lin Xin said.

"I'm afraid of you!" The security guard said helplessly.

The three of them walked into the room.

Lin Xin snatched the flashlight from the security guard, took a photo inside, and saw that everything was cleaned up, except for the dust, there was nothing inside, even the tables and chairs were taken away, only the bed frame was left. There were no bedding and bedding, and it was empty.

She checked every corner carefully, but found nothing. Even if the walls were clean, without any graffiti, it seemed that there were no clues here.

Presumably the day when the murderer killed her was the day when Lu Hongyun planned to move out of the school building, otherwise she wouldn't have been cleaned up so cleanly.

Lin Xin picked up the flashlight and shone it on the security guard's face, and said calmly, "We can go."

The security guard breathed a sigh of relief, and even Meihua breathed a sigh of relief, and the three of them walked out of the old dormitory building and crossed the playground again.

Lin Xin suddenly pointed to the pit where the bones were dug out a few days ago, and said, "Not long ago, we found the corpse here, not far from the old dormitory building."

Then, pointing to a building in front, he asked the security guard, "Is there a cafeteria in front?"

"Yes, there is a cafeteria." The security guard replied.

"It seems that the cafeteria is not far from the playground." Lin Xin thoughtfully said.

The three walked out of the school, Lin Xin bid farewell to the security guard, then turned and left with Mei Hua.

"Meihua, did you hear anything in the old dormitory building just now? Or did you see anything? Like ghosts?"

Lin Xin turned her head to look at Mei Hua, showing her sinister smile again in the afternoon.

Under the moonlight, Mei Hua saw that smiling face was particularly frightening, and shouted: "Sister Lin!!"

Lin Xin smiled and said, "Tell me, did you hear or see anything?"

Plum Blossom lowered her head and said, "No... I didn't see or hear anything."

Lin Xin nodded and said, "That's it. So, coming to investigate at night can indeed prove that certain things are not as true as the rumors."

"If a policeman doesn't even have the guts, how will he face a more terrifying murderer in the future? Ghosts are not scary in the world, but humans are scary."

While driving, Lin Xin said to Meihua.
