There was no other way, Xie Yuqing had no choice but to ask the administrator aunt to call up the files, one bundle for each person, and check them separately.
With Xie Yuqing's personality, she lost her temper after reading it for a while, so she piled up all the materials on Ye Shaoyang's side, and then went to talk to the aunt, and learned that Li Xiaoqiang was qualified to read the materials because he was a member of the student union. Then Xie Yuqing kept asking, and inquired about Li Xiaoqiang's situation from various aspects, as well as some school legends.
An hour later, she returned to Ye Shaoyang, patted the table, and said, "Hey, after watching for so long, what do you see?"
Ye Shaoyang held a document in his hand, and said slowly:
"It's hard to talk about discovery, but I took the opportunity to learn about the history of this school. It turns out that this school existed during the Republic of China. It was called the Steel City Lecture Hall at that time. It was abandoned during the Anti-Japanese War. Later, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, there was a Taiwan. The businessman returned to China and invested in the construction of this school... ”
Xie Yuqing curled her lips and said: "Do you still need to look at the information? Everyone in Steel City knows, okay? The former principal of this school is Wu Lele, who is the first batch of businessmen who returned to the mainland. It’s not the richest man. He has always been the director of this school. He retired in the 1980s and passed it on to his son. After his son died, he passed it on to his grandson. Wu Haibing, who received us just now, is probably also from the Wu family. people."
Ye Shaoyang complained: "I'm not a local, how would I know this, you didn't say it earlier."
"Such a well-known thing, I didn't know it would be useful to you." Xie Yuqing moved a chair, sat down beside him, and said, "Then you go on and find out what happened."
"I found a piece of information, and that girl told me that's right. When the No. 3 dissection room was used as a classroom, mass suicides did occur." Ye Shaoyang pointed to a piece of information in front of him, pointing to a paragraph of text. Thank you Yuqing for watching.
"—On the 10th night of February 1983, the school disciplinary inspection team found a group of men and women gathering on the roof of Building No. 3. They were in an abnormal mood and were ordered to return to the dormitory. The next morning, the tragedy happened. Only a few people in the 408 classroom of the building survived due to timely rescue. Due to difficulties, the authorities later intervened in the investigation, and it is still a suspected case... "
Xie Yuqing stared blankly at this passage, and said: "Fifty people committed suicide... Oh my God, just thinking about it makes me feel horrible." Picking up the material, he read it again in context, wondering: "Why? As far as this short paragraph is concerned, is there any relevant material elsewhere?"
"No more." Ye Shaoyang said, "I also wonder, the death of fifty people must be a top priority in the history of the school. I don't know why this short record..."
Xie Yuqing pondered: "And I've never heard of this matter. It is said that Steel City and Shicheng are so close, and they are in the same life circle. It is impossible for no one to know about such a big event." After thinking about it, Said, "There is only one possibility, there is some unsuitable factor in this matter, so the news is blocked..."
Ye Shaoyang nodded slowly. He also thought of this possibility, and said slowly: "It may be too miserable, or the truth cannot be found, so we can only deal with it coldly. With the closed environment back then, it is completely possible to let the least People know about it, and after decades, no one knows about it.”
"Well, but criminal cases like this will be recorded in the police station. Let Liu Yinshui find the information." Xie Yuqing immediately took out her mobile phone, called Liu Yinshui, explained the matter, and then asked Ye Shaoyang what else he found.
Ye Shaoyang opened a small notebook, recorded some words on it, and said while writing: "I have summarized a few data, listen, the earthquake occurred in 1978, after that, the Black Water Ditch appeared, and another three years later , Building No. 3 was completed and put into use in 1981... Seeing this timeline, what do you think of?"
Xie Yuqing was stunned for a while, then said, "What do you mean, there is some kind of connection between these few things?"
"It's very possible. After all, the time is very close, so it's hard not to doubt it." Ye Shaoyang put down the information in his hand, rubbed his sore eyes, and said unhappily, "You will be lazy, I'm busy here to read Information, you disappeared without a trace.”
"I'm not being lazy." Xie Yuqing argued, "I went to ask the administrator for information."
"Oh, did you ask anything?"
Xie Yuqing immediately told all the supernatural events about the school that he had inquired about. After Ye Shaoyang listened to it, he felt that the most meaningful clue was: in the past, almost every year, there would be supernatural events in the school. Some people were bewitched or even committed suicide. The venues for these things are basically in Lifen Garden, No. 3 Anatomy Building and these two places.
As for the black water ditch, there have been several cases of drowning and drowning in these years, but because the water in the ditch is black, it looks like a sewer, and it is scary to look at. Usually no students go there, so the ghost legend Not much.
"There is a situation that you may not know." Xie Yuqing said, "Lifen Garden originally had no name because it was always haunted. Later, it was called 'Lihun Garden' in private by students. Later, the school rebuilt the courtyard wall and gave it a name. When naming it, I simply used a homonym, and it became 'Lifen Garden'."
"So it's like this..." Ye Shaoyang was dumbfounded.
"There is another important situation. Every time Li Xiaoqiang came to the archives room, he did bring a notebook with him. However, after his death, the police searched the dormitory and did not find this notebook. It is also strange."
Ye Shaoyang thought about it, and decided that he must find this notebook: in the notebook, there must be a secret that he himself investigated.
Thinking of this, Ye Shaoyang proposed to Xie Yuqing to take a look at Li Xiaoqiang's dormitory.
Li Xiaoqiang's dormitory is on the fourth floor of a dormitory building. This building is full of seniors, so there are very few people.
Ye Shaoyang and the two of them followed the dormitory manager upstairs and came to the door of a dormitory on the fourth floor. There was a large open lock hanging on the keyhole.
"This is the dormitory where Li Xiaoqiang lives." The dormitory manager said, "He has several roommates who moved out their things after his accident. There must be no one living in this dormitory, and the school also thinks it is unlucky. Lock it up and talk."
Ye Shaoyang nodded, looked at the small window next to the iron gate, saw that it was covered with newspapers, and completely blocked the glass, and looked at the dormitories nearby, but there was nothing like this, so he asked the dormitory supervisor, and the dormitory supervisor only suspected that it was Li Of course, she didn't know whether Xiaoqiang's actions were true or not.
After opening the door, the housekeeper hurriedly left with Xie Yuqing's permission.
"Why is it so cold and cold in the house?" Xie Yuqing wanted to go in, but Ye Shaoyang grabbed her and looked at the entrance behind the iron gate, where a string of wind chimes hung.
