Chapter 022 Strange Dreams

Wenjie entered the community and turned to the supermarket downstairs.

As soon as I entered Bianlifeng, I smelled the aroma of pork ribs. Tonight’s lunch set includes pressure pot pork ribs.

He likes to eat pork ribs the most. Seeing how the pork ribs, lentils, corn, and potatoes are stewed, he chooses this dish without hesitation.

Paired with a lotus pond stir-fry and a side of rice.

When he got home, Wenjie put the lunch box on the dining table. He checked each room first. This was a sequelae of losing his computer last time.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the laptop in the bedroom was well placed on the table.

He went to the kitchen to wash his hands and sat down at the dining table to start cooking. When he came up, he picked up a piece of ribs and stuffed it into his mouth. The aroma of the meat and bones mixed with the aroma of the ingredients, and the meat was so soft that it melted in his mouth.

He finished off the ribs one after another, and soon only the side dishes were left. He wiped the oil from his mouth and burped happily.

It is true that food can bring satisfaction and happiness. At this moment, Wenjie felt much better.

However, I always felt that the ribs at night were a bit different from the ribs that Yang Shanshan sent me at noon.

Yang Shanshan...

I thought of Yang Shanshan again, hey! I have to find something to do for myself.

Wenjie immediately stood up and threw the lunch box into the trash can in the kitchen.

He made himself instant Blue Mountain coffee, placed it on the coffee table in the living room, and curled up on the sofa.

If Yang Shanshan hadn't refused, the two of them would be eating barbecue now.

He didn't know what kind of clothes Yang Shanshan would change into. The Yang Shanshan he saw was either wearing a formal dress or a fashionable skirt. It seemed that she had never seen her wearing casual or sportswear.

She has a good figure and is beautiful, and looks good in anything she wears.

Why do I miss Yang Shanshan again?

Sigh... When I finished the test questions, those memories about Yang Shanshan were so profound.

He believed that the memories left in his mind must be more intense and profound than the impression in Yang Shanshan's subconscious!

As long as he closes his eyes, Yang Shanshan looks lonely and helpless. He just wants to hold her in his arms and love her well.

Unknowingly, a smile spread across Wenjie's lips as he recalled the sudden skin-to-skin kiss at noon.

How wonderful!

No, I still have to find something to do!

He picked up the coffee cup and found that the coffee was warm, so he drank the coffee in one gulp.

Wenjie went to the bedroom and turned on the computer, searching for information about the three drowning girls in the browser.

But there is no other information except name, age, time of drowning, and place of drowning.

You did not mention the identity of these three girls, why they drowned, the circumstances at the time, etc. in the report.

Wenjie wrote down the existing information line by line on paper:

16-year-old girl Guan Xiaonan drowned;

15-year-old girl Xu Mo drowned;

14-year-old girl Lin Yufei drowned.

Qin Fen’s daughter is 14 years old and her son is 10 years old.

In other words, Lin Yufei and Qin Fen's daughter are the same age.

Uh... That's wrong again. Lin Yufei drowned in 2017. She was 14 years old when she drowned. If she had been alive, she would have been 16 years old.

16 years old? Guan Xiaonan is 16 years old!

Guan Xiaonan died of drowning in 2019. She was also 14 years old in 2017.

Xu Mo was 15 years old and drowned in 2018. He was also 14 years old in 2017.

Oh! Wenjie slapped himself on the forehead.

Why haven't you discovered it before?

On the surface, there seems to be no pattern in the year and age of drowning people.

But dating back to 2017, several girls were 14 years old.

How are they related?

Do these three girls know each other?

They all drowned in the artificial lake of this Canal Wetland Park. They all live nearby? Are they neighbors?

No, no!

Age is the key.

If they are the same age, could they be classmates?

Classmates!

Wenjie continued to browse the web, hoping to find more.

He scrolled down a few pages and saw someone posting on the Tianya Forum discussing this matter. When he clicked on it, it showed that the post had been deleted by the administrator.

This is strange. Is there another hidden secret?

Wenjie stared at the deleted post, vaguely feeling that the behind-the-scenes forces involved in this matter might be very powerful!

Qin Fen is a senior leader of the Ministry of Education, and these people have done crisis public relations and have not left any valuable information online.

Ministry of Education? Could it be that something happened in the school? Otherwise, how could the Ministry of Education be implicated?

Regarding drowning cases, the Eastern District Police Station should have records.

I wonder if Officer Cao will help with the investigation.

With the mentality of giving it a try, Wenjie sent a message to Officer Cao.

The message emphasized that the three drowned girls were the same age in 2017 and drowned one after another. Is there any possibility of murder?

I turned around and went to the bathroom to wash up, took a shower, returned to the bedroom, turned off the computer, and prepared to sleep.

He lay on the bed and fell into a deep sleep soon. After ten minutes, the sound of even breathing came from the bedroom.

In the dark room, his laptop turned on automatically.

The blue screen of the computer automatically lights up. Move the mouse to the extra video file on the desktop, double-click to open it, and the video starts playing.

The soothing light music in the video sounded in the room along with the video, with a soft sound and beautiful melody.

After the video playback ends, the computer automatically shuts down.

Wenjie slept soundly. If the alarm clock hadn't woken him up the next morning, he would have been late again.

He rubbed his eyes and sat on the bed. Before he woke up from his hazy sleep, he felt that he must have been too tired recently because he slept so well.

Yes, ever since I got this soul patching system, I have to go to work during the day and work on the system at night. It’s been a fulfilling life!

He grunted and got up, quickly packed up and rushed to the unit.

He bought breakfast downstairs and when he scanned the QR code to pay, he saw the female clerk smiling at him.

He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have dreamed of such a smile last night.

He thought he would dream about Yang Shanshan, but he didn't even dream about Yang Shanshan.

But...but I dreamed of a strange girl.

When passing by the park, I saw people doing morning exercises running around the green grass.

Grass! Yes, lawn!

Wenjie remembered that he was dreaming about the seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl who was wearing a school uniform on the school lawn.

That video on the computer!

But why do you dream about the school girl in the video?

When Wenjie was approaching the unit, Officer Cao's phone number came through.

On the phone, Officer Cao wanted Wenjie to come to the police station to meet and chat.

Wenjie hesitated for a moment. He knew that there were some things that could not be explained clearly on the phone, and it would be more appropriate to discuss them in person. But as for Director Wang...

Whenever he thought of Wang Ju's gloomy face, he became frightened.

After hesitating for a long time and thinking of all kinds of excuses, I didn't dare to dial the number from Li Wang Bureau.

Around him, commuters walked by in a hurry. He was the only one standing in the middle of the road, looking very annoying.

When Wang Ju's slow and confident "Hello" came over the phone, Wenjie was surprised as to how he made the call.

After hearing that Wenjie wanted to take leave, Director Wang didn't say a word whether he agreed or disagreed for a long time.

Wenjie's hand holding the phone receiver was shaking a little.

"Wenjie, you said you have some personal matters and you need to take leave, so why don't you tell me about it? You also know that the bureau is very busy right now."

"That's right, Officer Cao from the Eastern District called me and said he wanted to know more about the drowning incident the day before yesterday."

After Wenjie finished speaking, he raised his ears and listened carefully to what was happening on the phone.

He saw with his own eyes that two days before the accident, Qin Fen went to the canteen of their unit to have dinner with Director Wang.

By the way, there was another time when Wenjie helped Director Wang get water. Before entering, he heard Director Wang mentioning the leaders of the Education Bureau on the phone.

Could the leader he keeps talking about be Qin Fen?

Also... the day after Qin Fen drowned, Wang Ju did not come to the work.
