error

I will take fate by the throat, it cannot completely yield me.

--- Ludwig van Beethoven

……

Beethoven’s Symphony of Destiny was still playing on the road, and I gritted my teeth with a headache, but the other two people in the car were eager to discuss the case. At this moment, I couldn’t help but worry about the future security of this country. After all, a It's so disturbing to have yet another police officer stuck in a cul-de-sac trying to figure it out...  

Now, we are driving to Hanyang No. [-] High School.

Hanyang No. [-] High School is located on the mountainside of Beishan in Hanyang District, S City. Because it is far away from the city center, most of the students here are boarding students.The school's faculty and enrollment rate are among the best in the city, and such schools are often referred to as: key high schools.

"Key high schools" are the so-called "good schools" that parents often say. However, are there all "good students" in "good schools"?

He and Xia Jun and his party drove here again, two weeks after the death of the two girls living in the school was closed. Although Xia Jun's case was already making him very busy, this guy who has always been stubborn But he insisted on taking the time to make another trip. There was no other reason. It was just that the last subway train accidentally derailed a week ago. One of the passengers in the car, including the driver, died of a strange cause of death. It's just a student of the school, and according to him, this girl surnamed Luo is also on the inexplicable "death list".

Hanyang No. [-] High School, commonly known as the No. [-] Middle School, is located in a remote place with beautiful scenery and fresh air. The two previous cases of bizarre deaths of students were finally closed as "accidental deaths".

Since the possibility of homicide and suicide has been ruled out, the case is actually still unsolved. The only clue provided by the roommate of the deceased in the same dormitory was another female student living in the school—Zhong Hui. According to the students Response Zhong Hui once used "witchcraft" to curse a classmate and injured him, and the two girls who died were listed by the student named Zhong Hui as people who would die in the near future.This is the "death list" passed on by students.

However, such nonsense, the police will naturally not use it as evidence. As for the student named Zhong Hui, he had an alibi when the two female students died, and after investigation, Zhong Hui had no motive to kill.

Looking at the still green mountains outside the window while driving, I couldn't help laughing as I listened to Xia Jun's repeated analysis of the connection between the two deaths that happened a week apart and the accidental derailment of the subway.

The word "death list" reminds me of a manga I read before. The protagonist in the manga is also a high school student, and he picked up Death's Notebook by chance...

If it is said that Zhong Hui's "death list" has the same effect, that is, the person who writes it will die, then this matter may really be worth joining in the fun, but then again, that kind of thing How could it exist?

I'm not a dead duck with a hard mouth, but I still can't understand what Xia Jun insists on, his "police instinct".In fact, I originally thought that a policeman would not believe in such mysterious things at all, but... from the corner of my eye, I looked at Zhao Boyang, who was sitting next to me in the passenger seat, and Xia Jun, who was chattering behind me. , and now, a forensic doctor and a criminal policeman seem to be trying to find a solution with me, a magic stick... They are the people who shouldn't be with me...

The car parked in the parking area of ​​the school. We walked around the playground and entered the teaching building of the school again. During this time, the students should still be in class. The sky was clear in the morning, and the weather forecast said that it would probably continue in the afternoon. It’s raining, it’s been raining for more than two weeks in a row, and the air seems to be condensed with water vapor. I feel that my clothes are sticky to my body, and my whole body is almost moldy. I didn't want to come, but it seemed that no matter how sloppy I was, I would still be arrested if necessary.

I came to the principal's office on the third floor, and then followed the procedures that Xia Jun had contacted in advance, and met the key figure in the three incidents in Xia Jun's theory during the last period of physical education class: Zhong Hui.

Zhong Hui is a girl with a weak and elegant appearance. She is 17 years old this year and is a sophomore in high school. A certain student is the oldest student in the school. It is said that she has been detained for two years. If she fails to graduate this year, the school will persuade her to leave.

When I saw this little girl again, she seemed restless, and the dark circles under her eyes were obviously scary. The same as the first time I met her, she still showed timidity and shyness, and kept her head half-lowered. Dare to look at people, and the voice of speaking is also a whisper...

"A week ago, a senior high school student in your school was confirmed dead in a 'traffic accident'. Did you know about this?" Xia Jun took out his pen and notebook and said straight to the point.

"Know……"

Zhong Hui responded in a low voice and nodded. She has been like this since the first time she was investigated, always taking surprises. In fact, since the incident was still under lockdown, except for the family of the deceased, the outside media did not report the incident. .

So... how did she 'know'?I took a look at Zhao Boyang who was sitting on the other side of the single sofa and was thinking alone, and decided to listen to what this somewhat mysterious child had to say before making a conclusion.

"Luo...Qiqi..."

She still whispered the full name of the deceased slowly.That's right!The full name of Luo, whose body spontaneously ignited in the subway derailment accident, is: Luo Qiqi, female, 20 years old, a third-year student in Hanyang No. [-] High School.

"How do you know this?" Xia Jun's eyes lit up, he put down the notebook and pen in his hand, and asked eagerly.

"..."

This time, Zhong Hui didn't answer quickly as usual. She was silent for a while, then slowly raised her head and looked directly at Xia Jun who was sitting opposite her. Finally, she slowly turned her gaze to me and said: "...because I can see..."

"I... know..."

She stretched out her left index finger, nodded her head, and slowly scanned the faces of each of us with her eyes. At this moment, I found that Xia Jun's reaction seemed to be as excited as his guess.

"What did you see?" This time it was me who asked, because I realized now that Zhong Hui might have some kind of special ability, so if the crux of the case is the same as Xia Jun thought, in fact Zhong Hui should It is the key to solve the case and the solution, not the instigator.

"...Today...is the fourth..." Zhong Hui seemed to have some difficulty uttering these words in the end, and finally lowered her head again, and silently refused the next question, obviously refusing to communicate.

"Okay, let's come here first today, you can go back and continue the class."

As soon as Xia Jun's words were spoken, Zhong Hui got up and left the staff meeting room silently. Looking at the back of this shy girl leaving, I suddenly felt a feeling of desolation that I couldn't express, this kind of helplessness The feeling is emanating from her body, and maybe it needs some people who also have a certain "special ability" to feel it.

"Now do you still think that this child is related to the case?" Zhao Boyang, who has always been entangled in whether the subway incident caused death by music control, finally spoke up. At first, like me, he did not think that this child was related to the case. related.

"I didn't think of her as the murderer at first, I just thought she was a key clue..." Xia Jun began to flip through the notebook that recorded the oral transcript, as if he was still thinking about his premonition.

Xia Jun didn't get a positive answer, Zhao Boyang turned to me and asked me: "What about you? What does this child mean when she says she can 'see'? She has yin and yang eyes like you?"

"I can't predict the fate of people's death. At most, I may have a premonition similar to Xia Jun's. If I understand what Zhong Hui said, then she should mean that she can predict the imminent death. I mean..." I said what was in my heart truthfully, and then I was met with a blank stare from Xia Jun who had broken free from thinking.

"You! It doesn't work!"

"Spiritual fart! I'm not a fox, a weasel, a rat!" I clicked my tongue, too lazy to get involved in these clueless things that I still insist on finding out, anyway, I'm not a nosy person in the end people.

"Then that means, the 'death list' listed by Zhong Hui as reported by the students is also the people she 'premonition' is about to die, right? If you deduce it according to your thinking?" Xia Jun said seriously.Back to the state again.

"That's right." I rolled my eyes at him, leaned against the back of the sofa, and stared at the window of the staff conference room...

suddenly. There was a muffled "bang"!A white shadow suddenly flashed past my sight from top to bottom, and something fell from upstairs!

"What happened!?"

Xia Jun was the first to get up and run to the window, while Zhao Boyang ran downstairs directly relying on his intuition that was sharper than Xia Jun's...

Ah~ It’s time again for forensic doctors to appear frequently~

Spring is really a good time for suicide!
