"Cult? Is it such an exaggeration?" Lin Dongxue said.
"I'm talking about the nature of this small group. They all believe in something that others think is very absurd. It's not an exaggeration to call it a cult!" Chen Shi said.
Xu Xiaodong said: "They should be called dream worship!"
"Well, it's a good summary... By the way, Xiaodong, help me monitor the individual."
"Okay, you say." Xu Xiaodong was very excited when he heard that there was a task.
Chen Shi asked him to monitor Liu Tao and wrote him a copy of the address. By the way, he complimented: "The energy is good, I will invite you to dinner later."
"Hey, I like to perform tasks, no brains, just do it."
"It's good, but if you keep this idea, you won't be a policeman alone."
"Why do you want to be alone? I'll be a good assistant. The police are always teamwork! Right, Dongxue?"
Lin Dongxue smiled and said: "There are different things."
Early the next morning, Chen Shi and Lin Dongxue went to the bus station. To reach Yinxian, they had to pass some rugged mountain roads. It was more convenient to take a bus. Chen Shi hadn't taken a car out for a long time.
Enjoying the scenery of the mountains all the way, the two arrived at this small town in the mountains at ten in the morning. Lin Dongxue said: “It’s a warm and quaint town. If it weren’t for investigating the case, I would never have a chance to come in this life. I have never heard of it before. Said it."
"If you are not in a hurry, spend the night here at night, or take the bus back tomorrow morning."
"Yueyue is at home alone? Let's forget it! We will spend a lot of time together in the future, but you will not spend much time with Yueyue."
"Haha, thank you for your considerate big sister, Yueyue."
The two inquired and came to Yinxian No. 1 Middle School. Chen Shi told a teacher the names of the deceased. The teacher frowned and recalled and asked, "Which class are they in?"
"I don't know, but they were all born in 79."
"Then they should have entered the school after 90 years. It is too long. The teachers of that class have already withdrawn. I will check if there is any information about them in the archives."
The archives room was actually on a hill behind the school. The teacher said as he walked: "The above is the old school site. Now it is used as a warehouse. It is just a row of tiled houses. I went to school here when I was a child. The poor can’t keep people at all. Later, a Hong Kong actor donated money to build the following teaching buildings to expand enrollment, and the situation was better."
"When did you go to junior high school?" Chen Shi asked.
"92 years."
"Are there any rumors in the school, such as a student being bullied by the whole class?"
The teacher hesitated and stopped. When Chen Shi said that they were investigating the case, he said, "Then I will just talk about it, don’t take it seriously. I heard that there was a girl who was reincarnated as a catastrophe in the past few years. In fact, she The life experience is quite unfortunate. My mother was abducted by human traffickers. In those days, human trafficking was still rampant... The woman was bought by this family for three thousand yuan to become a wife. She couldn’t make it to her death, so she was chained. When she was locked in a cellar, it was strange that she was pregnant. The man who bought her thought it was his brother. The two brothers fought and had a knife. The brother hacked his brother to death and went to jail. After the baby was born, she went crazy. The family kept her locked up because of the ugliness of her family. When I was a child, I passed through the cellar and heard her laughing in it, saying something about my baby, it’s weird. , The children in the town were afraid to approach that place. I heard that in the seventh year, this woman died. It was very miserable."
"What about the girl?" Lin Dongxue asked, listening attentively.
"The girl killed her'father' before she was born, and the family is patriarchal. Is it good for her? She was beaten and scolded by her grandparents and told her to do this and that. She hadn’t had menstruation at the age of fifteen, and her body was as thin as her bones, but no matter how bad her family was, she must be sent to her for the nine-year compulsory education. Yes, she never changed clothes, only a school uniform with patches. Some people said she had a musty odor. Later, a student in her class died, and the calamity’s story became even more mysterious. So after she graduates, I can still hear these words in school."
"How did the students in her class die?"
The teacher shook his head, "I don't know about that. Or you can ask the people in the town. People my age almost know something about her..."
The teacher stood still suddenly, and then dashed away in one direction. Chen Shi and Lin Dongxue looked up, only to see billowing smoke from the top of the mountain.
The two rushed to the top of the mountain. Thick smoke came out of a window. The teacher patted his leg and said, "It's okay, it's on fire."
"Is there a fire brigade in town?"
"The fire brigade is dozens of kilometers away!" As the teacher said, he went to shake the water pump. With a click, the wrench of the water pump was broken. Chen Shi stepped forward to check and found signs of man-made damage.
He has a feeling that some people don't want them to check the student files here.
Looking at the dense smoke, the fire should have just been set up. Chen Shi told Lin Dongxue to stay here and rushed down the mountain. At this time, the teachers and students under the mountain were all disturbed. They stood on the playground and watched from a distance. Some teachers were panting. Climb the mountain and come up to fight the fire.
Seeing a stranger rushing down, some teachers tried to stop Chen Shi and asked: "Who are you!"
Chen Shi simply copied the certificate in his hand and said, "I am a policeman, have you seen the suspicious person running down?"
Everyone shook their heads. Chen Shi came all the way to the playground. A school worker said: "I just saw a man in a black hat coming down from the mountain. He also had the China Telecom logo on his clothes."
"Where did he go?"
"Out of school."
Chen Shi came to a street outside the school, where people came and went, he could only meet one to ask one, and then he found a China Telecom uniform and a black hat in a trash can.
Chen Shi picked up the clothes to check its size, and cast his gaze again on the people coming and going, looking for people of similar size. At this moment, he noticed a man sneaking into the alley.
Intuition led him to walk over. The man saw that there were chasing soldiers behind him, so he ran away. Chen Shixin thought that he could not let you escape this time and chased him desperately.
After passing through a few alleys, he finally threw the man to the ground and turned his face to take a look, surprised, it turned out to be Xin Bai.
"Why are you here?" he asked.
"I... I'll come over to get the material..." Xin Bai said, "Will you get up from me? People thought we were the one!"
Chen Shi asked him to stand up. When he saw a layer of soot on Xin Bai's fingers, he suddenly understood and asked, "You are the one who set the fire?"
"Uh... why should I set fire..."
"Yes or no!"
This frightening, the cowardly Xin Bai directly recruited, "Yes... it was the Master Dream who asked me to do it."
Chen Shi couldn't believe it. Angrily, he slapped Xin Bai to the ground and shouted, "Your kid has rebelled!"
