monologue

Qingshui Road, also known as Small Antique Street, is half of traditional handicraft production and sales, and half of which is an antique trading market. Things that are partial to handicrafts, such as woodcuts, are very common in Small Antique Street.

After walking for about half an hour, Chu Xingmu and Wen Ti passed through the bustling crowd, and finally stopped in front of an inconspicuous old woodcarving shop in the Antique Street.

Wen Ti looked up at the tall wooden plaque hanging on the second floor, under which there was a house number "0323", which was the shop number in Little Antique Street.

"It should be here." Wen Ti said.

There are no special signs around, but the shops in Little Antique Street are all numbered, and it is not difficult to find with a string of numbers. Chu Xingmu and Wen Ti looked at each other, the door of the wood carving room was half-closed, Chu Xingmu As a result of Xingmu's habit, he walked up to Wen Tihu behind him and pushed open the store door. With a "squeak", the wooden door opened. The two of them didn't know if woodcarvers were so strange and hoarded. The wood habits are exactly the same. Anyway, this shop is comparable to Yule's office. There are all kinds of wood carving boards on the floor, and there is a pile of sawdust under Wen Ti's feet. Wen Ti frowned and looked at Chu Xingmu, meaning that he His leather shoes were dirty, Chu Xingmu pulled him and let go of the handle of the wooden door. Coincidentally, Wen Ti's suit sleeve got hooked on the nail of the wooden door somehow.

Chu Xingmu almost laughed out loud. He helped Wen Ti remove the sleeves from the nails, and kicked the sawdust under his feet to the side. Let me shine your shoes for you."

"Then help me fix my clothes?"

"If you don't dislike me, fix it."

Wen Ti thought for a while, but still couldn't.

If it weren't for the woodcut products placed on the walls and shelves around the store, they might have thought they had come to a wood processing factory. Wen Ti said: "The boss and Professor Yu must be friends."

Chu Xingmu said: "It is possible."

The two made such a big commotion that no one came out. Wen Ti was still frowning at the leather shoes and sleeves. Chu Xingmu walked a few steps in and called out, but there was no response. Wen Ti looked at the shelf first. The woodcuts on display are all of great value. According to the clues left by Cheng Bai and Bai Xiaohan, Cheng Bai should have been an apprentice in this place. It is possible that Professor Yu Le introduced Cheng Bai to his friend. Bai also must have brought Bai Xiaohan here. Before they asked Cheng Bai what Liang Guoping was looking for in the library for a week, Cheng Bai refused to say anything, and this had nothing to do with the case, so they didn't take it as a Key questioning.

"A single print here can sell for tens of thousands of yuan." Wen Ti said, "My paintings are too cheap compared to these woodcuts."

Chu Xingmu turned around and said, "The paintings you gave me are all priceless treasures."

Wen Ti was slightly surprised: "Captain Chu is very good at talking recently."

"Teacher Wen is also very good at talking back recently." There was no one in the store, and Chu Xingmu and Wen Ti couldn't stay in the store all the time, so Chu Xingmu planned to go out first.

The two of them just turned around to leave when they suddenly heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground. They turned their heads to look inward at the same time. A middle-aged man carrying a pile of wooden boards came up from the basement. Only then did Chu Xingmu realize that there was still a There is a basement, he went over to help the middle-aged man pick up the wooden planks, the middle-aged man smiled and said: "Thank you, you are here for Cheng Bai, right? Old Yu told me that it is not easy to find this place, my store The location is off the beaten path, and even an insider can’t find it.”

Chu Xingmu thought that there is such a big plaque outside, and you can tell what the store sells just by looking at the name, Chu Xingmu said with a smile: "You and Professor Yu are friends, then Cheng Bai must have been introduced here by him."

"My name is Shao Kun, and I'm a college classmate with Yu Le. Cheng Bai doesn't have much talent in woodcutting, but this kid likes to study and works hard. He has gradually caught up with me and Lao Yu." Shao Kun put the wood on the ground , vacated two chairs for Chu Xingmu and Wen Ti to sit in, Shao Kun didn’t ask what the identities of Chu Xingmu and Wen Ti were, they seemed to be talking to themselves while they were busy, the two were not good interrupt him.

Shao Kun picked up the towel on the table beside him and wiped his hands while asking, "What do you want to ask me?"

Wen Ti asked: "Did Cheng Bai bring a girl named Bai Xiaohan here before?"

Shao Kun said: "It was a girl who came to Changqing University. I heard that she came to my place to buy a woodcut. She said that there was nothing she wanted. Later, Cheng Bai carved one for her."

"Then did Cheng Bai store anything here?"

"No, he brought a toolbox with him when he came and went." Shao Kun glanced at the shelf, and said as if remembering something, "There are a few works carved by him on the shelf."

Chu Xingmu walked to the shelf and saw that there were indeed several woodcuts signed by Cheng Bai on the shelf, so Chu Xingmu picked up one at random and asked, "Mr. Shao, did Cheng Bai ask you to keep anything? You must have heard about the matter between him and Bai Xiaohan."

Why did Liang Guoping go to the library for a week?Isn't it because Cheng Bai threatened him with something?At that time, Bai Xiaohan was already dead, so he didn't have to worry about being exposed. There was only one possibility, and that was that Bai Xiaohan left some clues before he died, maybe it was evidence to expose Liang Guoping's evil deeds. Wen Ti thought about it and only had one thing It was most in line with their guess. Liang Guoping sent Bai Xiaohan's diary to Bai Huifang. Liang Guoping must have checked those diaries and gave them to Bai Huifang after confirming that there was no problem. If Cheng Bai threatened Liang Guoping with Bai Xiaohan's real diary at this time, he would definitely not Sitting still, maybe Cheng Bai told Liang Guoping that Bai Xiaohan still had a diary that could expose his crimes, and the diary was placed in the library of Changqing University, the floor where Bai Xiaohan often went, so it made sense for Liang Guoping to frequent the library during his lifetime .

"Cheng Bai brought the girl he likes to your store to buy woodcuts, you must have seen it." Wen Ti went around a pile of wooden boards and walked to Chu Xingmu, took a print that Cheng Bai copied, and said: "" Dance by the Guillotine" and "Four Horsemen" are works copied by Cheng Bai. These prints have far-reaching significance, and their artistic value is far higher than that of modern paintings. You say that he has no talent, but his works can be faked. Placed in such a conspicuous place, Cheng Bai is your apprentice, right?"

Shao Kun looked at Wen Ti with a searching look, Shao Kun shook his head and said: "Young people nowadays are too smart, Cheng Bai is my apprentice, he gave me a password book some time ago, and asked me to keep it for him first Then, he will come to get it when he has time, who knows that such a thing will happen."

Wen Ti said sincerely: "We just want to read that diary. Bai Xiaohan didn't wait until this day, but her mother can. I hope you can help her."

Shao Kun turned and went back to the basement, Wen Ti and Chu Xingmu were waiting in the store, that diary should be Cheng Bai's most precious thing, a person who has been walking in the dark for so long, as long as he meets a little The light just wanted to chase after it desperately, and the disappearance of the light was like bringing him back to reality, which was even more desperate, but the environment Cheng Bai was in made him crazy and timid. Xiao suppressed the monster in his body.

Shao Kun handed the diary to Wen Ti, and Wen Ti took the diary solemnly. The string of numbers was the house number of the woodcut room and the password of the diary.

Wen Ti opened the diary, and it was written on the title page: You can't really know someone unless you walk in his shoes and walk with him for a while.

Bai Xiaohan's diary spans a long period of time. Judging from the traces of writing, she sorted the diary together. Chu Xingmu and Wen Ti brought Bai Xiaohan's diary back to the Public Security Bureau. They saw Zhao Youwei and him at the gate of the Public Security Bureau. Mother, his mother was in the hospital and hadn’t seen her son for several days. After asking his classmates, she found out that Zhao Youwei had been arrested. She ran out of the hospital secretly, wearing a hospital gown under her coat, and stood at the gate of the Public Security Bureau. After a long time, the police on duty found out that she was looking for Zhao You after asking.

Zhao Youwei was imprisoned inside for a few days, so he would not lose weight and haggard, but he also received a lot of psychological condemnation. Zhao Youwei's growth experience was just as Wen Ti guessed. He and his mother were subjected to domestic violence by his father since childhood. He aspired to become a lawyer to help his mother divorce. Later, his father's unexpected death was a relief for them, but he chose the simplest way to escape from reality. He and Cheng Bai met on the Internet. Cheng Bai barely counts as his readers, because the growth experience is too similar, the two became acquainted, and later Zhao Youwei knew that Cheng Bai and him were in the same university, but Zhao You acted flamboyantly, blindly arrogant, and somewhat vain for this person , except for experience, other aspects are incompatible with Cheng Bo. Cheng Bai has been to Zhao Youwei's apartment several times, and he is not a stranger. Therefore, when the police checked the surroundings of the apartment, they did not find any clues about the entry and exit of strangers.

Wen Ti had nothing to say to Zhao Youwei, so he entered the building first. Chu Xingmu still had something to say to Zhao Youwei. When Wen Ti walked into the office, Wen Daju immediately ran to his feet. Zhe and the others gathered around Zhao Chen's desk to look at things. Wen Ti quietly walked behind them and took a look. It turned out that Zhao Chen was trying to engrave "Four Horsemen" with a copper plate.

Lang Lang turned his head and asked Wen Ti: "Wen Ti, does your studio teach woodcut?"

Wen Ti shook her head and said, "We don't have this course."

Bai Yao heard that Wen Ti and Chu Xingmu went to Qingshui Road specially, so she asked, "Did you find anything in Antique Street?"

Wen Ti showed her the diary in her hand, "I took it back from Cheng Bai's master. This is what Liang Guoping was looking for in the library."

As soon as the diary was taken out, the people who had surrounded Zhao Chen surrounded Wen Ti again. Everyone was curious about the contents of the diary. This diary was an important evidence for Liang Guoping's conviction. The process of harassing and molesting her, writing about how she compromised with depression, being disappointed with this society but also hoping for a better one, are almost the voice of Bai Xiaohan's whole life.

Chu Xingmu came up from downstairs and saw them gathered together. He walked over and asked, "Have the files and reports been sorted out?"

Qi Shaocheng said: "It has already been handed in."

Wen Ti took her hand away from the diary, turned her head to look at Chu Xingmu and said, "Qu Huanzhi and the others have decided to sue, and Bai Xiaohan's case can only be clarified by means of a circular."

"What the public wants is the result and how to deal with it. Liang Guoping and Bai Xiaohan are both dead. If they can't file a case, they have to give an explanation to their families. Liang Guoping and Cheng Bai both wanted to kill each other, but Liang Guoping was killed by Zhou Heng. It must be me. This year’s most ridiculous case.” It was still the most unsatisfactory case, because Chu Xingmu initially thought that the murderer of Liang Guoping was a student who escaped through the window of the study room.

In the future, they should pay more attention to the surveillance video. There was a problem with the surveillance video in the case of Meng Yue's disappearance. This time, the school's surveillance has also been tampered with. Maybe seeing is not believing.

Xia Ci sat aside and said, "I still have a question that I can't figure out. Why did they put three locks on the study room?"

Cheng Bai refused to say anything, and Wang Yuling and Zhou Heng also kept silent. Could it be that Liang Guoping, who was afraid of death, would run out again?

"I also have a question, what do the symbols that Su Zheyu wrote in the basement mean." He went to the detention center with Wen Ti and he didn't understand.

"I think we were able to make a collection of the top ten unsolved mysteries of the Qingshi Criminal Investigation Team a few years ago."

"Where did the remaining eight come from?"

"Stupid, let's save slowly." Zhao Chen complained.

"Promise." Chu Xingmu's cell phone rang, and he got up to answer the call.

Qi Shaocheng changed his playful demeanor and said: "Yesterday before going to bed, Qi Han asked me how old Bai Xiaohan was. I said that she was similar to her. She smiled and told me that she was coming out soon."

"This is a good thing. You can save yourself a knife at work." Zhao Chen said while holding his copper plate.

"Bai Xiaohan didn't come out. She thought further than Qi Han. In this diary, she almost reviewed her short life, so the idea of ​​suicide was so firm. Getting hurt was the beginning, and all the negative emotions came out of nowhere. , and finally turned into a haze hanging over the top of the head, no matter how you shake it, you can't get rid of it."

"Cheng Bai and Qu Huanzhi are both students of City No. [-] Middle School. They were both subjected to campus violence when they were students. I never thought that these things could be related."

It is a pity that when Bai Xiaohan was in love, Liang Guoping could not be forgotten. No matter what Liang Guoping said was true or false, Wang Yuling lived with Liang Guoping with guilt and hatred all these years. Isn't it a kind of atonement? Liang Guoping and Wang Yuling fell in love. There is no way to trace back what happened. Finding the murderer of the murder case is not the ultimate goal, but finding the root cause of the case is the most important thing.

"School violence, domestic violence, and sexual harassment incidents have never stopped. They happen anytime, anywhere. If you can't see it, it doesn't mean you don't have it. It's just that most people choose to remain silent and don't want to speak out. Compared with the perpetrator's evil deeds, the attitude of the people around And speech is enough to destroy a person's psychology. School is a collective place. We can't say that these students are born to like to judge others, and they don't like or dislike things. If the three views of right and wrong are established, the perpetrators will not be corrected if they make mistakes, and the victims will not be protected when they are hurt. In this environment, talkative people will become dumb."

"This is another social problem. Parents and teachers, police and victims, perpetrators and accomplices, whoever is wrong is wrong." Zhao Chen scratched his copper plate, "Then we will work hard to make the dumb become Become a chatterbox."

Tang Zhe glanced at the thoughtful crowd, opened his internship report and began to write his summary.

The author says:

I'm finally free!
