Chapter 43

"What then? What then?"

Just when he was talking about the critical moment, the boy suddenly stopped talking, and several people around him asked anxiously what was going on.

"The next thing is that the police are handling the case. I don't know the specific details because they have to be kept confidential. Anyway, it is said that the owner of the house did not go to the big city to work, but joined a cult called Tathagata Zang and deceived him.

A group of rich people in the city came to help him build this house, and also recruited some people from many villages or towns next door to perform sacrifices, saying that it could help the rich bosses live longer."

"That's nonsense. News about such a big thing must be broadcast. We all grew up in Yangguan and have never heard of it."

After listening to the story he told, someone immediately questioned.

"Nonsense, how old were you at that time? What do you know? And I can tell you that this matter is strictly confidential. My aunt's son's classmate, brother-in-law, and neighbor's third nephew just graduated from the police academy this year.

Only after I graduated and joined the police station could I hear these top-secret inside information from my aunt."

"Bah, who are you fooling? How can confidential information spread to such a large number of people and finally reach your kid's ears? And according to you, your distant relative who has just graduated and joined the police station.

How could he know about the case twenty years ago?"

The man glanced disdainfully at the classmate who questioned him before explaining: "Nonsense, even though he just joined the police station, he has participated in solving two major cases in our Yangguan Town in the past few months, and because

Because of his outstanding performance, he was accepted as a close disciple by the deputy captain of the criminal police team. The deputy captain was also one of the police officers involved in the cult sacrifice case, so this top-secret case was spread. "

Seeing that several classmates still had unbelieving expressions on their faces, he suddenly became anxious and said firmly: "Don't believe me yet. This person I mentioned has a name. If you don't believe me, go find out for yourself. He is the person in our town now."

The rising star of the police station—Zhang Ziwei!”

Zhang Xinxing, who was listening to the story next to him, almost bit off his tongue. When did I become a new star in the police station? Is it me who spread this story? I just listened to you today, okay?

Thinking of this, Zhang Ziwei hurriedly explained to Fang Qin who was sitting across from him: "Officer Fang, don't listen to the nonsense of these little brats, this is all nonsense. I have never heard of such a cult organization, let alone the possibility of spreading police secrets.

.”

Fang Qin threw the chopsticks that were broken into two pieces into the dinner plate, glanced at Zhang Ziwei with a strange look, and asked: "You have never heard of this Tathagata Tibetan, has your master never mentioned it to you?"

This can be regarded as the longest sentence Fang Qin said to Zhang Ziwei for most of the day, but Zhang Xinxing couldn't care less about his excitement at this time, and hurriedly explained: "How is it possible? You also know that my master is a man of few words.

He's like a boring gourd. If you can exchange two words out of ten sentences with him, how can you possibly tell me about the case twenty years ago?"

After hearing what he said, Fang Qin didn't ask any more questions, but stood up and walked out of the canteen.

When Zhang Ziwei saw Fang Qin get up and leave, he was stunned for a moment and felt bad. This police officer usually talked less than my master. If I said that in front of her, she wouldn't think I was referring to Sang and Huai.

So he quickly caught up and wanted to explain.

But Fang Qin waved to her and said, "There may be something wrong with this club center. Li Shiwen's class teacher just told us that Li Shiwen and Shen Wen met during club activities.

Right? It means both of them have been to this building."

With that said, Fang Qin walked out of the cafeteria and went straight to the club activity center in the corner of the campus.

What kind of logic is this? There is something wrong with the building where they met?

Zhang Ziwei couldn't understand the logic behind Fang Qin's words, but after all, today's investigation was focused on Fang Qin, so he had no choice but to follow the other party's footsteps.

The campus of Normal University is not big. It is said to be in a corner of the school away from other buildings, but in fact it is only a ten-minute walk away.

It was only when the two of them reached the center of the club that they discovered that there were several roadblocks placed on the cobblestone path leading to the main entrance of the building.

Without saying a word, Zhang Ziwei ran a few steps forward to remove the roadblock. He said to Fang Qin diligently: "Officer Fang, be careful where you step."

But at this moment, a security guard in security uniform ran out from the building behind him and shouted to him: "Hey, what are you..."

The other party stopped before he finished shouting, perhaps because he saw the police uniforms on the two of them.

The second half of the sentence changed directly: "Comrade police? There was someone shouting and screaming in this house last night, but we suspect that someone was accidentally locked in the house and called for help. Now the whole building has been searched.

, it’s nothing, no need to alert the police, right?”

Obviously, the other party thought that Fang and Qin had received a report from a student and came specifically to investigate the shouting last night.

"We are here to investigate Shen Wen's suicide case. It is understood that he entered this building before his death, so let's see if there are any clues." Fang Qin explained.

The security guard looked at the two of them even more strangely. Shen Wen was a student of this school. Before his death, he left the girls' dormitory but did not enter any building. Does this also need to be investigated?

However, since it was the police investigating the case, he couldn't stop even a security guard, so he had to lead the way and lead the two people into the building.

As soon as they entered the room, Zhang Ziwei and Fang Qin obviously felt that the temperature was much lower than outside.

Zhang Ziwei asked curiously: "I heard that this house was built a long time ago. Why did it use a central air-conditioning system at that time?"

The security guard answered while leading the way: "What kind of central air conditioning is used? I don't know what materials this house is made of. It is warm in winter and cool in summer. It is very comfortable inside. If it were not too far away from other buildings in the school, this house would have been built in the first place."

This building should be regarded as the administrative building where school leaders work."

After explaining this, the security guard pointed the way to the two of them: "Several large clubs in the school are basically on the first floor, such as literary clubs, dance clubs, etc.; on the second floor are some clubs that need equipment, and some students themselves.

The usual activities of playing bands are also on the second floor; as for the third floor, there are some unpopular clubs with not so many people."

The security guard only heard that someone in the school had committed suicide. He didn't know the name of anyone at all. The gossip about what clubs the deceased joined was not something he, a security guard, needed to care about.

At this time, he just told the two people about the distribution of the clubs on the three floors and let them choose where to investigate.

"Thank you, we can investigate on our own, go ahead and do your work." Fang Qinyan still spoke in a concise and concise style.

The security guard didn't want to have anything to do with the murder case. After hearing what the other party said, he left the two of them in the building and left.

Seeing the security guard leaving, Zhang Ziwei asked: "Officer Fang, where do you start the investigation?"

The two of them happened to walk to the side of the stairs in the lobby on the first floor and glanced at the long corridor behind the stairs. Fang Qin replied: "Underground."

There is actually a door leading to the underground at the end of the corridor, but perhaps it was repaired when the school took over the building. Instead of a secret door hidden in the wall, this door is a modern mahogany sliding door.

However, the rust stains on the lock of the door and the stop sign in front of the door indicate that no one may have set foot in the space behind the door for a long time.

After pushing the door lightly, Zhang Ziwei pushed the door open easily with a "creak" sound.

"Hey, this door is so easy to open, doesn't it look like no one has entered for a long time?" Zhang Ziwei said in surprise.

Fang Qin ignored his question, but took out his mobile phone and turned it to lighting mode, and took the lead to walk underground.

The two of them walked down the stairs using the light from the flashlight on their mobile phones. Only then did they realize that the stairs were not spiral like the one in the story just now, but a zigzag staircase like an ordinary building.

At every turning point of a zigzag, there will be a gentle platform, and then it will continue to turn back and extend downward from the other side.

After walking through about three turns, the two finally reached the end of the underground stairs, and the scene at the exit of the stairs was somewhat similar to the one in the story just now.

A flat room twenty meters square, but there were no coffins, Buddha statues or naked corpses in the room, but piles of neatly stacked documents or books.

Using the light of their mobile phones, the two quickly checked several of the documents and found that they were some school development reports or teaching materials.

"Let me just say that those stories are all lies. There is no cult worship space here. It is obvious that the school deliberately built a basement to store some useless documents." Zhang Ziwei said angrily.

Unwilling to give up, Fang Qin searched around the basement again, but found nothing in the end.

"Perhaps I'm too preoccupied. Let's go back." After saying this calmly, Fang Qin took the lead and walked in the direction he came from.

The two of them set foot on the zigzag staircase again, and as they walked, Zhang Ziwei's talkative nature was brought out again.

"I would say that today's college students are just idle. If they don't study hard all day long, they just think about making up ghost stories."

"Hey, Officer Fang, we didn't eat well at noon, how about I treat you to a big dinner tonight?"

"Officer Fang, you said this school is really just a basement to store some documents. Why does it have to be so deep? Aren't they tired of carrying documents up and down several floors?"

While Zhang Ziwei was chattering, the two of them crossed another step and came to a gentle place.

Fang Qin, who had been walking in front, suddenly stopped.

"Officer Fang, what's wrong?" Zhang Ziwei, who was following behind, immediately asked.

"How many flights of stairs have we walked?" Fang Qin's voice revealed a rare hint of hesitation.

"If you count the platform at the turnaround, it should be past the fourth floor." Zhang Ziwei returned.

"But we only walked through three floors when we came down."
