At night, Qizhong couldn't see his fingers.Qi Lin pulled out a flashlight to explore the way ahead, while Shi Le looked left and right, looking for where Chen Wen might be hiding.

Although Qizhong is not big, as a school, there are too many places where people can hide. Qi Lin needs to carefully check every corner of every floor, so as not to miss Chen Wen's lifeline.

The efficiency of searching in this way was too low, and I searched several classrooms without seeing Chen Wen.

I don't even know if I'm dead or alive.

"Chen Wen should still be alive. It is very difficult to silence him in school." Shi Le said, "The risk is very high. If he fails to keep it clean, people will see him."

But this is just Shi Le's wishful thinking.As long as he finds a place where no one is around, Wang Zhi can still easily kill Chen Wen.

"Where do you think Chen Wen will be?" Qi Lin stopped, "You are familiar with this school, try to analyze it."

Shi Le supported his head to recall.The memory of junior high school is too old, and many details have been mottled by time. "If I want to hide people, I will choose a place where there is absolutely no one and no one goes, so as to avoid people's eyes and ears. And this place must be big enough, Make sure it lasts as long as possible.”

There are three buildings in Qizhong, which are teaching building, cafeteria and sports building.

The first thing that Shi Le ruled out was the teaching building. There are many people in the teaching building, and no matter how clever the technique is, there is a risk of being bumped into.

"The cafeteria or the gymnasium, but the cafeteria will be cleaned at night. Wang Zhi left the school gate at six o'clock. There should be many employees at that time." Shi Le's bright eyes flashed, "That's the gymnasium The structure of the Sports Building is very complicated, the swimming pool is on the first floor, the badminton hall is on the second floor, and there are various music rooms and art rooms at night.”

"Then go to the Tiyi Building." Qi Lin didn't dare to delay any longer, and took Shi Le to trot all the way to the Tiyi Building next to the playground.As soon as he arrived at the door, Qi Lin saw that the lights were still on in the swimming pool, and several boys were soaking in the water.

"That's a swimmer." Shi Le went up and asked if they saw Chen Wen, and all three shook their heads.

"But you can go upstairs and have a look. I heard the piano upstairs before, but I didn't see anyone coming down." One of the boys said to the two.

Qi Lin looked at Shi Le, feeling a little excited.

The person who played the piano upstairs might be Chen Wen, he is not dead yet!

Qi Lin went straight up to the third floor from the elevator.There are many classrooms on the third floor, row by row, with no end in sight.

A gloomy wind blows from the end of the corridor, messing with Qi Lin's hair.Qi Lin took a deep breath, turned on the flashlight and shone across the corridor.

With a sound, a black figure sprang out from a certain room, Shi Le yelled and hid behind Qi Lin.

"It's scary." He lay on Qi Lin's shoulder, his eyes sneaked over Qi Lin's shoulder, "Why don't we ask more people to come together, Senior Wang Xin and the others should be on the way."

"It's okay, it's just a cat, just keep walking." Qi Lin raised his flashlight to take a picture of the room where the shadow disappeared. It was a cat whose whole body was completely black.It squatted on the desk, staring at Qi Lin with two glowing green eyes.

I don't know how the cat got upstairs.Qi Lin patted Shi Le's hand on his shoulder and comforted him, "Let's move on."

Shi Le didn't reply for a long time.After a long while, he said to Qi Lin: "Senior, I really dare not leave. There are many evil legends in this building, and I think there will be scary things ahead."

"Which school doesn't have horror ghost stories?" Qi Lin smiled, "Coward, keep going."

"No, no, senior, this is really different." Shi Le pointed to the classroom at the front, "We had a legend a long time ago that there was a moving statue in that classroom, and every night, it was put The plaster statue by the window will automatically run to the door."

His voice trembled: "It's scary."

"Okay, don't scare yourself." Qi Lin is a complete materialist, he never believes in such strange things.He shouted Chen Wen's name, waiting for Chen Wen's reply.

Not long after, a faint "I am" came into Qi Lin's ears.

He followed Chen Wen's voice to find the haunted room that Shi Le said.

"Chen Wen, are you inside?" Qi Lin slammed on the door hard, and the door frame creaked unbearably with Qi Lin's brutal force.

"Here! Uncle policeman, save me!" Chen Wen cried.

Qi Lin checked the way to break in.The facilities here are very old, the sliding doors are too old, and the door frame is slightly deformed. It seems that Chen Wen was locked inside because of the deformation of the door frame.

"Get out of the way." Qi Lin leaned against the door and said to Chen Wen. After confirming that Chen Wen had left, Qi Lin kicked the wooden door away.

While the dust was everywhere, Chen Wen sat on the ground and kept crying until he was out of breath.

"You, you are finally here, I thought you were going to die here." Chen Wen sobbed, "Who, where are people?"

"It's okay, we're here." Shi Le squatted beside Chen Wen, patted Chen Wen's back lightly, "There is no one else, so don't be nervous."

Chen Wen's sobbing gradually subsided under Shi Le's comfort.

Qi Lin realized that he didn't say that sentence because he was afraid.

"Who?" he asked. "Did you see something? Who kept you here?"

Chen Wenping calmed down for a while, "No, I came here by myself, no one wants to harm me."

"Aren't you telling the truth at this point?" Qi Lin scolded, "No one knows what the murderer intends to keep you here. If we hadn't arrived, you might be in danger!"

It was difficult for Qi Lin to show his tough side.

Chen Wen was frightened by Qi Lin's scolding, and hesitated, "Actually, someone else was playing with me, and they didn't mean to harm me... Maybe they just forgot that I was here."

The only one who can protect him like this must be Wang Zhi.Qi Lin thought so.

Coincidentally, other members of the Criminal Squad also arrived here one after another. Knowing that Chen Wen had been found, they took Chen Wen back to the police station, leaving only a few criminal investigators to investigate the scene. .

Taking advantage of nothing to do, Qi Lin also began to study the door.He is now inclined to Wang Zhi to lock Chen Wen in the room, but he has not figured out how Wang Zhi can lock Chen Wen in the room accurately through the deformation of the door from the outside.

"Xiao Wang, come and see this." Qi Lin stared at a small protrusion on the door panel in a daze, "Can this protrusion alone be able to jam and push the door?"

Xiao Wang didn't rush to draw a conclusion, but measured the door gap and the door panel with a ruler, and then came to a conclusion.

"can."

As soon as he finished speaking, he said again, "But this protrusion seems to be made from the inside, like this."

He gestured with a ruler.Qi Lin understood what he meant.

This protrusion must be deformed from the other side of the door panel by a strong external force, and if you want to block the door, you must use force from inside the house.

This protrusion cannot be made by Wang Zhi.

"Is there anything else suspicious?" Qi Lin asked.

Xiao Wang has been in this business for a long time, and he knows that Qi Lin is asking if he has found other clues, such as "how to make this kind of protrusion from the outside", or "how to escape after making the protrusion from the inside".

"No," Xiao Wang shook his head. "There is no window on the side near the corridor, and there are no traces of pasting. But..."

He pointed to a corner of the plaster statue, "There are traces of wear and tear, and the plaster statue's ears also have traces of being bound by thin threads. This may be used. Now I have to judge how old the traces are. If they are new, I will It means that this plaster statue was used."

Things are getting more and more mysterious.

"Senior, should we go directly to Wang Zhi's house to find someone? I know Wang Zhi's address." Shi Le looked into the distance from the window, pointed to a house with a gray exterior wall, and said, "That's the one."

Normally, an interrogation should take place at this point, but Qi Lin still has doubts about all of this, and it is best to be more cautious about interrogation.

"No, let's investigate for a while." Qi Lin said, "Let the criminal investigation department continue to search the crime scene to see if there are any other clues. Let's go back first."

All of this is a bit too coincidental, like a vulgar mystery novel.

And he couldn't think of a reason why Wang Zhi locked Chen Wen here.There are always people coming to this place to teach during the day, and even if you use the mechanism, you can't deform the door from the inside.

With these questions in mind, he returned to the police station.Chen Wenzheng was sitting on the sofa, his eyes were red, and he was holding a cup of steaming tea in his hand.

"Isn't this the kid who surrendered himself a few days ago?" The director was also surprised when he saw the person, and pulled Qi Lin aside to ask, "I heard that someone locked him up, how is it? Do you have any clues?"

"Can you have any clues? Isn't this guy running around like a headless chicken?" Huang Yuanliang, who was brewing coffee at the side, choked loudly, "I don't know where he went today, maybe he went somewhere again Go meddle in your own business."

Faced with Huang Yuanliang's doubts, Qi Lin has always had no intention of refuting.

He shrugged, skipped the director and Huang Yuanliang, and sat beside Chen Wen.

"Scared?" Qi Lin asked.

Chen Wen ignored him.

"How about it, are you still not going to say it?"

Chen Wen lowered his head and remained silent.

"I'll ask you for a day off tomorrow, don't go to school." Qi Lin took the cup in Chen Wen's hand and added some water for him.

Only then did Chen Wen raise his head to Qi Lin and said, "No, I'm going. I have something to solve in the school."

Qi Lin probably knew why.

"Whatever you want." He changed his attitude and spread his hands, "As long as you are happy."

As soon as these words were uttered, Qi Lin did not continue to dissuade Chen Wen, but just watched Chen Wen's reaction with his arms folded.

As Qi Lin expected, Chen Wen panicked after receiving this reaction.After hesitating for a while, he put down the cup in his hand.

"Actually, I lied." Chen Wen swallowed, "I didn't kill people."

"I've known this for a long time." Qi Lin sat down and tapped his knuckles on the glass tabletop, "Let's get to the point."

"What I said, can I guarantee my safety?"

"Let's talk." Qi Lin took a pen and prepared his notebook, wanting to hear what Chen Wen would say.

While listening to the two playing riddles, Shi Le seemed to be listening to a bible, "What are you talking about?"

"Shh, don't make noise, listen to what he has to say."

Chen Wen pursed his lips and began to recall.
