Tian Yinzhen was about to ask He Jianfei what he was looking at, but Old Man Li's question drew her interest again: "So, how is the relationship between Zhang Junxing and Shi Ting?" Old Man Chen said: "Jun Xing is a talented person, and so is Shi Ting. The two of them have known each other since junior high school and have been together since college. They are both active activists and have achieved very good results. Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, they are a match made in heaven. Although there are Sometimes they blushed over some trivial things, but they reconciled after a while. Anyway, I have never seen them have any big quarrels. The two of them have always been in harmony, and they were famous golden boys and girls in our school. "Old man Li pondered: "According to what you said, it is impossible for two people to separate due to anger. So Shi Ting did find an excuse to move out of the school to have a child?" Tian Yinzhen said: "Even so, Zhang Junxing is dead. It’s impossible for her not to take a look? Isn’t this too counterintuitive? There must be something weird between the two of them.”
Mr. Chen said: "The weird things have just begun. We reported the case, because it was the first major incident after the death of Senior Brother Aqiang, and the police did not dare to neglect it. Shi Ting committed suicide. There is nothing to investigate, so the police Everyone in the bureau focused all their energy on Zhang Junxing. According to the on-site survey at the time, except for the footprints of Zhang Junxing running wildly at the top of Yougang, no one else's footprints could be found at the same time, that is, It is said that when Zhang Junxing died, he was alone on the top of Yougang. So how did the murderer kill him? Then the formal report of the forensic doctor discovered another strange thing. Except for the slight difference in the pupils of both eyes There were no signs of damage or blows anywhere on the body, but the few drops of blood flowing from the eyes could not be fatal. The forensic team argued for more than two months before submitting a formal report. I I still remember the last sentence in the report: 'The heart of the deceased stopped beating naturally without any influence from the outside world!' When this report was passed to us, the student union suddenly seemed to explode. Xiaohu slapped the table angrily Said: "Isn't this deceiving people? According to his statement, doesn't it mean that Jun Xing injured his own eyes and then died of natural causes like an old man? This can't be deceived even by a three-year-old child!" 'On campus, almost everyone was filled with indignation, so I stepped forward and selected a few students from the medical school to form a team and demanded a re-examination of the body. The police station refused, but could not withstand the strong pressure of public opinion. Finally, He was still released. Three days later, my students were frustrated and submitted a report that was exactly the same as that of the forensic team, which shocked the entire campus.
"I was at a loss, and in my hurry I thought of Tan Xingwan and Shen Fanglai. They knew Zhang Junxing's temperament, and maybe they could get some clues. Who knew that just at this time, Shi Ting's matter came out again, and an announcement was made to comfort people and arrange it. A large number of prosecutors came over to identify Shi Ting's parents, so I had to let it go temporarily. On the second night of Shi Ting's death, Shen Fang came to me on his own. He was obviously losing weight due to excessive grief. As soon as he saw me, he said: "Chairman, I heard that Zhang Junxing left a diary beside you when he died. I want to read it." I suddenly remembered that I had looked through the diary and saw what kind of blood and shadows were there. Such ridiculous language is esoteric and difficult to understand. I didn't have the time to study it, so I locked it in the cabinet. I took the key and opened the drawer, but found that it was empty. I couldn't help shouting: 'Why is it missing? Who took it?" Shen Fang looked at the drawer and said solemnly: "That's true! The vice chairman told me that he found the diary next to Shi Ting and scared him half to death. He was so nervous that he had to lie down Recuperate in the hospital.’ Only then did I learn that the diary was said to be the incarnation of death, with a terrible curse attached to it: whoever kept that diary would be baptized with blood and fire.”
Old Uncle Li frowned and said, "Who made up such a ridiculous thing?" Old Uncle Chen defended, "It's not made up. It is said that that sentence was clearly written on the title page of the diary." Tian Yinzhen chuckled. : "It is said? Uncle Chen, haven't you read that diary?" Mr. Chen said: "I read it when Shi Ting was alive." Old Man Li couldn't help but scolded: "That's not what I read? I read it before and after her death. What's the difference? Could it be that the contents of the diary changed on their own?" Old man Chen suddenly cast a strange look and slowly glanced at the three of them: "That's the strange thing. When I read the diary, the title page It was clearly blank, but Vice Chairman Xiaohu swore that he would risk his life to see that he saw this sentence clearly written in blood on the title page of the diary."
After hearing these words, the three of them were all numb and had goosebumps all over their bodies. Mr. Chen continued: "I didn't believe this kind of thing at first, so I ignored it, and the diary was sent to the police station as evidence. Unexpectedly, several people died mysteriously in the police station within half a month. Suddenly, the legend began to grow. When it became popular, the police station was so scared that they hurriedly found an excuse and sent him back to school. The school was also in a panic. I was the first to suggest burning him to avoid harming the world. But there are a few people in the school who are not afraid of evil. People. If you insist on collecting it on the grounds that the death of Dong Lotus cannot be forgotten, the result will of course be a dead end." Tian Yinzhen asked puzzledly: "What about Tan Xingwan and Shen Fang? Since they are Zhang Junxing's good friends, don't they want to Collect that diary?" Mr. Chen sighed and said, "This is another incredible thing. On the seventh day after Zhang Junxing's death, ten of his friends went up the mountain to pay homage. On the way, they encountered heavy rain, and five of them returned. On the way back, Tan Xingwan suddenly disappeared, and his life and death were unknown from then on. Shen Fang happened to have a fever and didn't go that day, so he finally saved his life. However, the good times did not last long. Just when the cursed diary was harming the campus, Shen Fang Taking advantage of our unpreparedness, he stole the diary and left a note on my desk before leaving, saying that he would rather die in exchange for Zhang Junxing's innocence, which would also eliminate this scourge, so Shen Fang died. In the end, the diary was no longer complete. The legend was eventually lost to obscurity." Old Man Li said, "What did you just say about Zhang Junxing's innocence?" Old Man Chen said, "Oh, you said that. It's some nonsense on campus. Didn't I say before that the diary was cursed? Some bastard on campus spread the rumor that because Zhang Junxing was unwilling to die, his dead soul was attached to the diary, specializing in sucking people's souls. Take people's brains. I was very angry when I heard the news. I checked vigorously and found nothing. People's words are terrible, and everyone's words are worth gold. Shen Fang must not be able to bear the thought that his friend will be stained after death. , the young man was so full of energy that he did such stupid things."
Uncle Chen's narration finally ends here. The Junting incident in 1951 is indeed closely related to Dongyao. If it weren't for Zhang Junxing's sudden death, there would be no possibility that the evil ghost would even exist. That is to say, today's twists and turns and dangerous truth could actually reveal its true colors as early as 1951. Just as Mr. Chen said, Zhang Junxing died to solve the Donglu Incident. If he had been upright and upright in his life and harmed others, he would directly take revenge in the form of an innocent soul. There is no need to go through so much trouble and attach it to some diary. It took a lot of effort to write such a sentence. So who placed the curse on the diary? Does the diary contain some important hidden information that needs to be disclosed and hinders someone's interests? Was that person afraid that the Dongchuang incident would happen, so he killed Zhang Junxing and Shi Ting? There was silence in the room as these questions rolled through everyone's mind. The insects outside chirped occasionally. After a long while, Old Man Li broke the silence first: "You can't know the murderer of Zhang Junxing in the end, right?" Old Man Chen was about to nod, but Tian Yinzhen already said: "Don't think about it, it must have been Senior Dong Ou who killed him. His whole body is missing. Wounds and face bleeding, isn't this a common killing method used by the Unjust Ghost Road?" He Jianfei, who had been silent beside him, suddenly joined in and said: "But at that time, Senior Dong Ou didn't have the ability to kill. Didn't Zhang Junxing say that? Will she just sit under the tree and cry?" Tian Yinzhen was startled, glanced at He Jianfei and said, "When did handsome He come back to his senses? From the tone of your words, it seems that he knew that very well. Who is the murderer?" He Jianfei denied it quickly: "Of course not. I'm not a god. Uncle Chen and the others didn't know it after a year, so how could I possibly know it? By the way, Uncle Chen, do you have Zhang Junxing? Photo?" Mr. Chen stood up and said, "Yes, yes, you sit down for a while and I will go in and find it for you."
Seeing Old Man Chen go in, Tian Yinzhen smiled and said to He Jianfei: "By the way, why are you always staring at the photos on the wall? Is there any beautiful woman on it who is the most beautiful woman in the country?" He Jianfei said with a smile: "It's really impressive. Miss Tian from Guoqingcheng guessed it right." Old man Li over there couldn't help but laugh and spit out a mouthful of tea. Tian Yinzhen was stunned, glared at He Jianfei fiercely, turned around, and went to talk to Old Man Li.
Old man Chen brought out a lot of photos, flipped through them for a while, took out one and handed it to He Jianfei and said: "This big head portrait is still intact and well-preserved." He Jianfei hurriedly took it and took a look, only to see that it was leaning on it intimately. Among the three boys, the one sitting among them had a crew cut that was common in that era. He had a smug smile on his face, and his eyes were bright, as if he was glaring at the person looking at the photo. The one on the left has his mouth open, smiling from ear to ear, showing his white and neat upper row of teeth. His left hand rests on the shoulder of the one in the middle, showing their close friendship. The one on the right looks very elegant and delicate, and his slight smile cannot hide the faint melancholy in his eyes. The same thing is that the three handsome boys have "confidence" written all over their faces. This photo gives people a bright and refreshing feeling. On the lower right side of the photo is written a line of small, elegant characters: "Taken at the founding ceremony of the Literary Society on May 30, 1951."
While watching, Tian Yinzhen spoke: "I didn't know that the seniors 51 years ago were so energetic. If it were today, I'm afraid the most handsome guy in the province's colleges and universities would have to stand among these three for three days." It will take three nights to stop." He Jianfei was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what was going on. He snorted coldly and pretended that he couldn't hear it, leaving only Old Uncle Li who was snickering and Old Uncle Chen who didn't know what was going on. He Jianfei said to Mr. Chen, "This must be a photo of Zhang Junxing, Shen Fang and Tan Xingwan."
Mr. Chen said: "Yes, this is it. Tan Xingwan gave it to me as a souvenir." He Jianfei said: "Have Shen Fang and Tan Xingwan also joined the student union?" Mr. Chen said: "Then Not really. I originally invited them in, but they refused. People have their own ambitions, how can we be stronger than each other? Shen Fang was active in the photography club, and the huge photo of the two heroes on campus that is still hanging in the school history is his. A proud work. Tan Xingwan was obsessed with literature and founded the literary club. This photo was taken by Zhang Junxing and Shen Fang when they went to attend the celebration of the founding of the literary club." He Jianfei smiled and said: "I'll take a guess. , the one sitting in the middle is Zhang Junxing, Shen Fang is on the left, and Tan Xingwan is on the right." Old man Chen was surprised: "Hey, how come you guessed it all right?" He Jianfei said: "You just said you wanted to pass on Zhang Junxing, I think the person I can like must first have a decisive leadership spirit before he can win the position of chairman. There is a clear difference between Zhang Junxing, Shen Fang and Tan Xingwan in this regard. You see how he tends to Sitting in the middle, his posture definitely doesn't look like that of a vice-chairman." As soon as he finished speaking, Old Man Li said with a dark face: "Hey, kid, who are you talking about?" Tian Yinzhen laughed so hard that he couldn't move on the armrest. Old Uncle Chen looked at Old Uncle Li and leaned forward and backward with laughter. Even Old Uncle Li was trembling with laughter. He Jianfei was busy trying to explain to Old Man Li that it was an unintentional mistake, but the always dull air became loosened because of He Jianfei's wrong words. Old Uncle Chen remembered that Zhang Junxing and the others were playing like this that day, with their voices and smiles appearing before his eyes, and he couldn't help but temporarily clear away the gloom in his heart.
After a while of fussing, He Jianfei said to Old Man Chen, "I wonder if I could trouble Old Man Chen to take down the photo in the frame above and take a look at it?" Tian Yinzhen thought to himself, "Your ghost is finally coming out." This time , even Old Man Li became energetic. He sat up straight and watched Old Man Chen take off the photo frame. He Jianfei carefully took off the old photo he saw for the first time and asked Old Man Chen, "Can you tell me the background of this photo?" Tian Yinzhen snatched it over, and Old Man Li quickly turned over: There are thirteen people in two rows. Only Mr. Chen, as the chairman of the student union, has the privilege of sitting on the chair. Everyone has their hands down. Except for the vice chairman in the middle, they all stand sideways at a 45-degree angle to the left or right, with a smile on their face. A reserved and nervous smile. They were all dressed in neat student uniforms, and behind them was the bronze statue of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the symbol of the school. Against the backdrop of the lush trees on both sides, it creates a solemn and solemn atmosphere. Uncle Li took one look at it and said, "Hey, I get it. Look at this old-fashioned arrangement. It must be that boring photos like this are taken when the student union changes its term."
Mr. Chen said: "Senior Brother Li is right. This was taken at the end of March when our student union elected a new team. Well, in the photo, apart from me and Xiaohu, we are the chief and deputy ministers of each department." He Jianfei said: "So, Zhang Junxing is also in that photo?" Mr. Chen said: "Yes, he was elected as the head of the Organization Department, and he is the third one from the left." The three people hurriedly came forward to take a closer look, but the photo was not The view was from a long distance, and since it was a bit wet, it was really impossible to see the expression on Zhang Junxing's face clearly, so the three of them had to give up. He Jianfei asked again: "Then the person who took this photo is Shen Fang?" Mr. Chen nodded and said: "At that time, he had the best photography skills in the school."
An elusive smile suddenly appeared on He Jianfei's face: "Yes, the technology is really great! Did Tan Xingwan come that day?" The topic turned from Zhang Junxing to Shen Fang's photography skills and then to Tan Xingwan. Old man Chen was a little dizzy. He thought for a while before replying: "No, there were too many people in the venue, so I didn't see him." He Jianfei said, "Where is Shi Ting? Is she here?" Old man Chen still hesitated for a while. : "Probably not. Because there are regulations at the venue, representatives who are not the Student Congress are not allowed in." Seeing that Mr. Chen really couldn't remember, He Jianfei changed the topic and said, "You said this photo was taken at the end of March. You said When did you get this photo?" This trivial question of time troubled Mr. Chen even more. He stayed there for a quarter and a half before he said uncertainly: "It was probably in April, I really can't remember. ." He Jianfei didn't wait for the words to finish, and he immediately said: "Okay. Do you remember who gave the photo to you?" Old man Chen was very straightforward about this question, and immediately answered: "It was Zhang Junxing, and then this All these things are the responsibility of the Organization Department." He looked at Old Man Li, who nodded in agreement. As soon as Tian Yinzhen heard that the photo was handled by Zhang Junxing, Tian Yinzhen immediately knew that there was something strange, and immediately looked over it over and over. Unfortunately, he still found nothing strange. However, He Jianfei asked, "Have you added anything to the photo since you received it?" There was a hint of confusion in his voice, and he was obviously very nervous. Old man Chen also knew that he had reached the key point of the question, and said categorically: "No. Absolutely not! Not only me, but I can also guarantee that there is no such thing for others."
He Jianfei finally breathed a sigh of relief, pointed to the small characters on the lower right side of the photo and said, "The four words 'New Year's Day' were not written by you?" Old man Chen hurriedly came forward to take a look and said, "No, The font seems to be Zhang Junxing's handwriting?" He Jianfei said with satisfaction: "Okay! Let me ask the last question, do Zhang Junxing, Shen Fang and Tan Xingwan have any common hobbies?" Old man Chen said: "They are all from the Red School. Among them, Tan Xingwan has the highest attainments." He Jianfei said with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Chen, I don't have any problems now." Tian Yinzhen and Mr. Li were still confused. The photos were almost torn through and they still couldn't find them. anything suspicious. Tian Yinzhen was anxious, and hurriedly pulled He Jianfei and said: "What on earth have you discovered that makes you so happy? Tell me quickly!" He Jianfei said in shock: "I heard that they also like "Dream of Red Mansions". Even if I have found a soulmate, I am not happy at all." May I?"
"You... you are clearly fooling me!" Tian Yinzhen was furious. He stepped on He Jianfei's foot hard, and the pain made He Jianfei scream "Ouch" while holding his feet. Old Uncle Li knew He Jianfei's temperament and would not tell him even if he refused to tell him. He was not in a hurry to force him. He raised his head and looked out the window and said, "Hey, it's getting late. He Jianfei, I haven't booked a room yet. Hurry up." Go out and see if there is any hotel." Old Uncle Chen stood up and said enthusiastically: "If you don't mind it, why not stay here? My wife has passed away and my children are away, so I am very lonely." Old Uncle Li said: Could it be: "This..." He Jianfei ignored the pain in his feet and said hurriedly: "Old man Chen, I have a cruel request. Can you give these two photos to me for safekeeping temporarily?" Old man Chen said: "No problem, as long as you I can express my grievances to you, even if it is just a gift to you." Old Uncle Li thought that He Jianfei would remember to look through something after a while, so he had to agree: "Thank you for your help, Xiao Chen." Old Uncle Chen said happily: " Then I'll go cook first. By the way, I have two guest rooms here, one must be for this lady, and there is another room left... Brother Li, why don't you squeeze in with me, I also want to hold candles with you Let's talk at night." Old man Li was thinking about going back to the room to discuss Jun Ting's affairs with A Qiang, so he hurriedly declined: "There will be a chance next time. I was too tired today and really have no energy." Old man Chen entered a little disappointed. When they went to the kitchen, Tian Yinzhen said, "I'm here to help you, old man." He also followed him into the kitchen.
He Jianfei approached Old Man Li and just asked, "Do you snore at night?" Old Man Chen suddenly poked his head out of the kitchen and said to He Jianfei, "By the way, I forgot to ask you just now, how did you guess the photo?" Zhong Shen Fang and Tan Xingwan?"
"Oh, that's what you were talking about." He Jianfei smiled, "I'm just blind, I don't have any inferences."
