To find out the true identity of the innocent ghost, the best way is still to follow the pattern of cracking the innocent ghost. He Jianfei and Mr. Li coincidentally thought of the Iron Box, the tightly protected archive room that records the most detailed information. This time, when Old Man Li went there and took out the old student ID card, the old man guarding the door suddenly stood up excitedly, took Old Man Li's hand and kept talking with tears, as if to say How he was able to enter here, Old Man Li was at a loss and couldn't remember at all. He Jianfei, who was impatient next to him, rushed into the house early in the morning and came to the file rack of 1949 with ease. He hurriedly opened the cover of the file, and the names of the twenty-three people he was already familiar with passed by one after another. He Jianfei opened the two pages, and there was only a blank piece of paper behind them. No record? He Jianfei was puzzled. It seemed that the wronged soul was just a minor character. There was nothing that would cause trouble after his death that the student union would not dare to record. Why was there no reflection on the iron box? Could it be that there is some inside story here
Just as he was thinking wildly, Old Man Li finally got rid of the old man and came in. He Jianfei hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Did you personally look at the records of these 49 years before putting them in?" Old Man Li said, "It should be." He Jianfei said: "Is it possible that a student died, but you deliberately didn't record it because you were afraid of it for some reason?" Old Man Li hesitated and said, "Yes." He Jianfei perked up: "Who is it?" Old Man Li looked at it strangely. He glanced at him and said, "Ah Qiang, why are you pretending to be stupid with me today?" He Jianfei then remembered it and said at a loss of whether to laugh or cry: "No, I mean except A Qiang." Old Man Li said cheerfully: "Then there will be no more ." He Jianfei asked again: "Are there any students who died that you didn't know about and missed recording?" Old Man Li said resolutely: "That's absolutely impossible. Everyone lives in dormitories. If someone really died, then It was a big event, and it spread throughout the school all at once." He Jianfei closed the file and said, "That's strange. Except for the twenty-three people who committed suicide in that class in 1949, there were no dead students. Could it be that this The innocent soul is not a student, but a teacher?" Old Man Li vetoed it: "It's even more impossible. I remember clearly that there were no deaths of teachers or staff at that time."
He Jianfei looked at Old Man Li and said, "You mean, this blood word could only have been committed by one of the twenty-three people who committed suicide?" Old Man Li said, "According to your inference, it is indeed just someone who committed suicide." We can come to this conclusion." He Jianfei frowned and said: "When I think about it, I always feel that the logic is a bit unreasonable. First of all, we already know that these twenty-three people were deceived by the real Aqiang to implement the Twenty-Three Boys Formation. This means that these twenty-three people believed the lies of the real Aqiang, hated the evil ghost Aqiang, and decided to die." Old Man Li clapped his hands and said: "That's right, so I said The dilemma of love and hate." He Jianfei said: "No, just listen to me. Secondly, the blood poem talks about the dilemma of love and hate. If the wronged soul has feelings for Dong Ou, even if Dong Ou dies, the love will only become deeper. , why is it said to be difficult to destroy? Is it easy to destroy the love before Dong Ou is dead? Finally, and the biggest doubt, this person's hatred should obviously be towards senior Li Gui Aqiang, so he must be targeting the people when he implements this plan. Senior A Qiang, then why would he listen to the real A Qiang and go die? And I remember that the place where the twenty-three people committed suicide was either at the police station, in the dormitory, or in the class. The newly created innocent souls have very weak magic power. , can only move within a certain range of the place where it died. How did it get to a cave so far away, and how did it have such great power to kill so many people? Could it be that there is something in common with the ghost world on my brother's path? "
Old man Li finally heard what He Jianfei said: "You mean, that person is not in the same class as Dong Hao?" He Jianfei shook his head and said: "I didn't say that, I just felt that this unjust way of death was It's not just a simple suicide, there must be something fishy in it. Otherwise, how to explain the fact that it has the power to kill so many people? Just like Senior Aqiang and Senior Donglu, they both encountered some problems when they died. The specific environment and conditions resulted in such terrifying magic power." Old Uncle Li said: "In other words, we have to start investigating this matter from the way that person died." He Jianfei smiled bitterly: "I'm afraid. We have to start with the identity of that person, we don’t even know who it is, you see, there is no record even on the iron box.”
Old Man Li said with a dark face: "Damn boy, are you going around in circles and scolding me for dereliction of duty? I told you before, I dare to guarantee with my personality that there is absolutely no flaw in the 49-year record except Aqiang. Is that person certain? Did he die in 1949?" This sentence reminded He Jianfei. He patted the bookshelf and said, "Yes, even if he had hatred for Senior Aqiang, he didn't necessarily have to die in 1949. I was just thinking. It's rusty." As he said that, he hurriedly looked for the 50-year-old file, but Old Man Li had already snatched it away. When he opened the page of the list of deceased persons, it was actually blank. Old Man Li frowned and said: "There have been no deaths in 50 years." He Jianfei took the file of 51 years aside and said with a smile: "Needless to say, the answer must be with me. Dong Ou was a junior at the time and could see The only people who know her are students before the 51st grade. Since there are no records of her in 1949 and 1950, she must have died in 1951."
As He Jianfei spoke, he unzipped the page, but couldn't help but be startled. When Old Man Li went up to look at it, he saw that only two names were registered on it, two names they were extremely familiar with - Zhang Junxing, Shi Ting. Old Man Li said "Hi" and sighed: "We forgot about them two. Didn't the Junting incident happen in 1951? It seems that the clues have been broken again. Isn't this person from the school?" "Wait a minute. ," He Jianfei suddenly interrupted: "Let me ask you a question, how did Zhang Junxing die?" "Well," Old Man Li tried to think back and said, "You said that he died in an accident. That is, he died because he encountered a connection point in the ghost world... Wait, by the way, I remember Tian... At that time, some people said that Zhang Junxing was killed by Tan Xingwan. Is there any debate later on which one is the answer? " Li The old man spoke smoothly and almost slipped out the words "Tian Yin Zhen". Fortunately, he changed his words in time. How could He Jianfei not know what he was thinking? He smiled faintly and did not say anything, but the look on his face had obviously dimmed: "Of course there is no argument. , At that time, I couldn’t even take care of the Wrongful Ghost Road incident, and the Jun Ting incident was just an auxiliary.” With that, he took out a page from the file and handed it to Mr. Li, saying: “Since you don’t know how Zhang Junxing died, then you know Did this person die like this?" When Old Man Li took it over to look at it, it turned out to be a list of missing persons, with only one person's name on it: "Tan Xingwan, disappeared on June 3, 1951, Hongding Road. "
Old Man Li cried out, "Tan Xingwan?" He Jianfei said, "Yes, the No. 1 suspect in the police file, do you know how he died?" Old Man Li scratched his head and said, "I don't know, do you know? He Jianfei couldn't help but chuckled and said, "I know why I'm here to look for it? But it seems that the Junting incident has not been completely resolved. Maybe we don't know the deeper inside story here." Old man Li speculated on He Jianfei's words. Meaning: "You mean, the person who wrote the blood poem must be among these two?" He Jianfei said: "Is there any other explanation? If the iron box is absolutely credible, can we still find it? Is there a third person?" Old Man Li said confusedly: "But haven't we already deduced it? Zhang Junxing did not hesitate to use despicable means to kill Xiaohu for revenge. Tan Xingwan fell out with him and even fought for justice. Tan Xingwan is obviously a good person, so why did you also include him in the suspect list?" He Jianfei said: "Before the facts come out, any inference may be completely wrong. Besides, what is the reason for Tan Xingwan and Zhang Junxing's falling out? We have no evidence at all to make a conclusion. Our understanding of the characters of the three of them is based on the descriptions of Old Man Chen, which will inevitably lead to subjective deviations. We made inferences at that time about who was loyal and who was traitorous. It's too arbitrary. Do you remember? Shen Fang never mentioned the cause of death of Zhang Junxing and Tan Xingwan, and Shi Ting did not explain how they died. All parties were tight-lipped about this issue. , which makes me believe that the death of the two of them is a huge mystery, which must contain many complex inside stories and secrets. In other words, the mystery of the Road of Wrongful Ghosts has not actually been completely solved. What we have solved is just The superficial doubts reveal an innocent soul that may be even more evil hidden in the deepest part."
What he said made Old Man Li chill: "Then what should we do now? Should we start with Zhang Junxing or Tan Xingwan?" He Jianfei said: "We must start with Tan Xingwan. Zhang Junxing's information has been scattered to the point where it is basically equal to No more." Old Man Li said, "I haven't seen any information left by Tan Xingwan." He Jianfei turned to one of the pages of the file and said, "Do you still remember this sentence?" Old Man Li looked and saw that it turned out that It was "On the third day, the emperor died. We prepared a ceremony and went to worship. When we saw the words and knew them, they all dispersed. On the third day, Ting died, and something was expected." He Jianfei recorded this break: "This break Who left the record?" Old Uncle Li said: "Needless to say, it must have been left by those who went to worship him." He Jianfei said: "That's wrong, you forgot again, there were all those who went to worship him that day. There were ten people, but some people turned back after it started to rain heavily on the way, and only five people actually arrived in the end. Therefore, the authors of the broken records can only be five people. Among the five people's names, Shen Fang is the only one not named, that's because Shen Fang happened to be Of course, if he didn't go because he was sick, it can also be understood that Zhang Junxing deliberately arranged for him to stay and implement a certain plan. But there is also no Tan Xingwan among the names of these five people."
Old Man Li nodded and said, "It's natural. Tan Xingwan had a falling out with Zhang Junxing, or he might have killed Zhang Junxing, so he was naturally embarrassed to come to pay homage." He Jianfei said, "But he is on the list of people who returned. "Old man Li was shocked. He quickly took the file and looked at it. Sure enough, among the five people who turned back, there was the clear name of Tan Xingwan. Old man Li looked up blankly and said, "What on earth is going on?" He Jianfei smiled and said, "Are you finally surprised? Not to mention the grudges between Tan Xingwan and Zhang Junxing. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, I believe they are Most of them are good friends, and they have to show off no matter what. Besides, Tan Xingwan was not sick at that time, so there was absolutely no reason not to go to worship him just because of the heavy rain. Suppose he really didn't want to go because of the heavy rain. According to common sense, when you go down the mountain to pay homage, you must go down the mountain with the four people. When you go to pay homage, there are ten people who go together. When you go down the mountain, there are also four companions. In other words, Tan Xingwan is on the Hongding Road. He was always accompanied by someone and never had any chance to be alone. So, how did he disappear in public? Therefore, this statement on the file is completely contradictory."
Old Man Li said in disbelief: "Are you saying that people from the student union made false accusations? It's impossible. People at that time were very pure and would not do such deceitful things." He Jianfei said: "What I said above is based on Judging from common sense, if we don't follow common sense, Tan Xingwan may not be missing." Old Uncle Li said: "But you clearly said that he could not disappear in public view." He Jianfei said: "Then if we exclude the possibility of being in public view, What's the situation?" Old man Li didn't expect He Jianfei to ask such a question, and couldn't help but said in a daze: "It can't be that he disappeared at a convenient time in the mountain, right? Apart from this, I can't think of any situation that can exclude the public view." He Jianfei said : "No, you are wrong. There is one person who can do this." Old Uncle Li hurriedly asked: "Who is it?" He Jianfei said decisively: "Tan Xingwan!"
Seeing Old Man Li standing there in a daze, He Jianfei couldn't help but laugh: "It's often the easiest and most likely things that are considered impossible by others. Tan Xingwan could have asked to be left alone for some reason and refused. Others, so that he has this opportunity to 'disappear'. The school has never found Tan Xingwan's body. Whether he is alive or dead, where he went and what he did is all a mystery." Old Man Li said He asked in shock: "Do you suspect that Tan Xingwan is the unjust ghost who caused the Ge Dao incident?" He Jianfei spread his hands and said: "Then what do you think is a more reasonable explanation?" Old Man Li asked in surprise: "No way? Tan? Isn't Xing Wan a good person? He has his own personal principles, and even good friends will ignore him if his principles are violated, and he will even try his best to prevent the implementation of Zhang Junxing's despicable plan. Now you suddenly say that he is actually the culprit who does all kinds of evil, and The contrast between someone who likes killing people and is addicted to death is so great that I can't accept it at once." He Jianfei laughed and said: "Didn't we also infer that Zhang Junxing was an upright person who died in the line of duty in order to find a solution to the injustice of the ghost? ? Later it was clarified that it is not the same thing at all." Old Man Li said unwillingly: "I am very good at judging people. In the photo, Zhang Junxing has a pointed chin. I can tell at a glance that he is a very ambitious guy. If such a person is upright, he will be a hero, but if his conscience is corrupted, he will be a scum. But that young man Tan Xingwan is different. He looks quiet and elegant, and you can tell by the look in his eyes that he is a loyal and kind person... "Old man Li also wants to say: As he continued speaking, He Jianfei interrupted him dumbfounded and said: "That's all, I think it will be convenient for me to ask senior brother to set up a piece of land at the foot of Wutai Mountain for you to set up a stall and tell fortunes. Everything I said is just an inference, and it is not based on the facts. Until the truth comes to light, anyone could be the murderer."
Old Man Li said: "Then how are you going to investigate? Judging from the information, as long as we find out how Tan Xingwan disappeared, we will understand more than half of the matter. However, the red stone top was originally a road on the mountain behind the school. With the construction of school dormitories, the small road has long been forgotten and there is no way to check it." He Jianfei smiled and said: "There is nothing we can do, but Gong Yong and Liu Canli can do it. They went down the mountain with Tan Xingwan. Aren't there four more people?" Old man Li suddenly realized: "I understand, do you want to arrest others the same way you arrested me?" He Jianfei laughed and scolded: "Bah, don't say it in such a bad way, you clearly did it yourself. I didn't ask you to come here. Let's go back now. I have one more important thing to do." Old man Li asked, "What is it?" He Jianfei said, "A fellow disciple of mine was arrested. My brother is in a terrible state and is still in the hospital. I have to rescue him as soon as possible so that I can find out more about him. After all, he saw some strange things."
