"What's the problem with the note? Isn't it just a few sentences?" He Li asked curiously.

Lin Wei put down the chopsticks in his hands and showed the photo of the note stored in his phone:

Yunhao and I don't want to take the exam anymore. We want to go out for two weeks. The world is so big and we both want to see it.

July 2

Li Lianbo

"This note has three questions." Lin Wei pointed at the photo and said, "The first question is, was this note written by Li Lianbo?"

He Li immediately said: "Li Lianbo's mother Qu Yanan showed it to us last night. Can Qu Yanan still recognize her son's handwriting?"

"Then have you seen Li Lianbo's other handwriting besides this note?" Lin Wei asked back.

"And according to Zhang Lei and Qu Yanan's statements, Zhang Yunhao is a more independent child. If he ran away from home, then Zhang Yunhao should be the initiator. Why was Li Lianbo the one who left the note? Let's handle the case more rigorously.

.”

He Li shook his head slightly, not knowing how to answer.

"Second question, why do you have to leave a note?" Lin Wei said, holding out two fingers, "Wouldn't it be better to run away from home quietly without leaving a note?"

"The note was left to explain the reason for running away from home and to prevent family members from worrying." He Li replied.

"But according to what Zhang Lei said, Zhang Yunhao has a mobile phone. Since he doesn't want his parents to worry, he can always make a call or leave a WeChat message."

"What's the status of Zhang Yunhao's cell phone now?" Xu Zhenguo stopped the chopsticks in his hand.

Lin Wei each handed Xu Zhenguo and He Li a cigarette: "Always turn off the phone."

He Li waved his hand to indicate that he did not smoke: "This problem is easy to understand. They left the note to tell the family not to worry. They turned off the phone just because they didn't want other people to disturb them."

Lin Wei was noncommittal about He Li's answer and continued: "The third question is, who is the note addressed to, or in other words, who do you want to see it first?"

"Since the note was left at school, I must have wanted my classmates or teachers to be the first to see it."

"But they didn't find the note until three days later on Monday."

He Li still shook his head with a puzzled look on his face: "I still don't quite understand."

Lin Wei smiled and said: "I don't understand either. You want specific groups of people to know first, but you don't want them to know immediately. Why?"

Xu Zhenguo stood up and took a deep breath: "Lin Wei, do you have a car? Take us to No. 7 Middle School after breakfast."

"Brother Xu, there is a lot left in your bowl, why don't you eat?" Lin Wei pointed at the bowl and blew out a smoke ring.

Xu Zhenguo couldn't eat when he was distracted, but he pointed to the cigarette in his hand and said, "I'll be full if I smoke your cigarette!"

Xu Zhenguo paid the money in a hurry and led He Li into the car with Lin Wei.

He Li was sitting in the back seat of Lin Wei's car, looking out of the car window from time to time while driving on the landscape road on the west side of Rujiang River.

From last night to now, the rain shows no sign of stopping. The rainwater pouring from the upstream has poured into the dry riverbed of the Rujiang River, and the overall water level of the river has risen significantly.

In inland cities like Youjiang City, the phenomenon of river outflows is getting worse every year. Only during the rainy season can the water volume of the Rujiang River improve to a certain extent.

However, in other seasons when rainfall is low, a large area of ​​the riverbank of the Rujiang River is exposed, and only a trickle of industrial wastewater and urban domestic sewage flows through the middle of the riverbed, emitting a nauseating stench along the banks of the Rujiang River.

He Li tilted his chin, feeling disturbed by what Lin Wei said.

One message can actually raise three questions. There is no need to consider such a complicated matter like running away from home. If you think about the problem according to Lin Wei's thinking, there will only be more confusing questions.

For example, if the calligraphy was written by Li Lianbo, why did he still sign his name? The note was only found on July 5th, so why wasn’t the date written as July 3rd or 4th?

Thinking about it this way, the whole note is full of problems, but in fact as long as the person is found, all the problems will become non-problems.

The three of Xu Zhenguo arrived at Youjiang No. 7 Middle School. After being contacted by the Academic Affairs Office, they met Li Lianbo and Zhang Yunhao's class teacher Dong Xiujuan in the conference room. After a brief introduction, the two parties went straight to the topic.

"Teacher Dong, we are here this time just for the sake of Li Lianbo and Zhang Yunhao. We want to have a better understanding of all aspects of the two of them through you." Xu Zhenguo said sincerely, placing his hands on the table.

Dong Xiujuan was well prepared for the police's visit. She smiled and replied: "Comrade police, thank you for your hard work. I will cooperate with you and tell you everything I know."

"Then let me make a long story short. Have Li Lianbo and Zhang Yunhao encountered any difficulties or setbacks at school recently, or have they behaved abnormally?"

"Not at all. Our No. 7 Middle School is a key high school in Youjiang City. It is the end of the semester and the students are busy reviewing their homework and have no time to take care of other things. Although Li Lianbo and Zhang Yunhao are not good students, they are not kids who cause trouble out of nothing."

Xu Zhenguo nodded and continued to ask: "Who found the note left by Li Lianbo, and on what day did he find it?"

"Li Lianbo's deskmate Qiao Yusheng discovered it during self-study on Monday morning. Li Lianbo's note was sandwiched in the middle of the bookshelf. Qiao Yusheng found it and gave it to me."

Xu Zhenguo then showed Dong Xiujuan the photo of the note saved in Lin Wei's mobile phone: "Is this Li Lianbo's own handwriting?"

Dong Xiujuan replied affirmatively: "Yes, I will not mistake Li Lianbo's handwriting."

Xu Zhenguo stared at the phone and frowned: "Do they... have a good relationship? Do they have any common hobbies?"

Upon hearing this, Dong Xiujuan's expression became a little unnatural: "Not to mention their hobbies, it is difficult for them to talk together. Zhang Yunhao secretly plays mobile games on weekdays and buys brand-name shoes and clothes online;

Li Lianbo is very honest in class, but I always feel that he has a lot of thoughts that are hard to figure out."

Xu Zhenguo lit a cigarette at some point and put it in his mouth. The choking smoke was exhaled evenly with his breath.

Dong Xiujuan frowned, but did not stop her.

Dong Xiujuan's words had been expected by Xu Zhenguo, and he had seen some clues about their personalities when Qu Yanan reported the case.

Xu Zhenguo thought to himself that there must be some unknown relationship between the two children. If investigated, it would be of great help in tracking the two of them. It seems that the next step is to find Qu Yanan and Zhang

Ray confirms a few more things.

Xu Zhenguo put out his half-smoked cigarette and asked Dong Xiujuan symbolically: "Do you have anything else to add to their questions?"

He Li and Lin Wei were about to get up and leave, but Dong Xiujuan said hesitantly: "Key high schools like No. 7 Middle School never accept loan students unless they are extremely outstanding students. But Li Lianbo

One exception is that his student status is not in Nanhu District, and his high school entrance examination results are said to be very average..."

Xu Zhenguo looked at Dong Xiujuan in confusion: "What does this have to do with the question I asked?"

"Although it may be a rumor, I think it is not completely unfounded," Dong Xiujuan said. "As far as I know, Li Lianbo had the opportunity to study in No. 7 Middle School with the help of Zhang Yunhao's father, Zhang Lei.
