Chapter 52
Zhang Chunran searched for clues very happily, and didn't take the initiative to talk to Tu San for several days.
When Tu San wanted to ask her about things, he often failed.
He was going to talk to the principal if he couldn't find anyone, and he might know some details that had been overlooked.
When he came to the corner of the stairs and was about to go downstairs.
"Senior Tu!" Someone stopped him.
Looking back, it was the bastards who slaughtered him that day and disappeared before he finished speaking.
Tu San thought of his wallet and his flesh ached, and he didn't have the energy to talk to them, so he turned his head and walked away, out of sight and in peace of mind.
But a few students chased after him and blocked his way. One of the students touched the back of his head in embarrassment and apologized: "I'm sorry, Senior Tu, we were late that day and were punished by the old thief.Copy it to study next night and forget about you, we really didn't mean it."
"It's okay." He didn't have to argue with the students, nor could he care about his image.
"Excuse me, I have something else to do."
The students didn't move at all, "Senior, we know that you are investigating Director Liu's affairs. I think you should finish what you didn't finish last time. After all, you have eaten so many snacks, and you will not be rewarded for nothing."
Tu San felt the same way, they couldn't be taken advantage of for nothing.
"Speak, I'm listening."
The students looked at each other and nodded.
"Actually, ever since Director Liu passed away, there have been rumors that it was related to Lou Qiang."
"Um?"
"Before Director Liu's accident, his relationship with Lou Qiang had been tense."
A student chimed in and added, "It's more than nervous, you can smell gunpowder ten meters away from them."
"They're all kind of weird anyway."
Tu San originally listened casually, but now he became interested, "Where is the strangeness?"
"Lou Qiang didn't talk much at first, even if Director Liu gave her small shoes, he didn't bother to talk about it, but during that time, it was like eating explosives, contradicting Director Liu in front of many teachers and classmates, making him unable to come down."
"The same goes for Director Liu. I don't know what's going on. He's neurotic. He often checks our mobile phones in our bags when we go out for physical education class. He says he's looking for puppy love, but he only focuses on Lou Qiang. They seem to beWe even started arguing... At first we didn't understand what was going on, until we heard the news of Director Liu's accident, now that we think about it, maybe Lou Qiang really knows something."
Tu San listened without saying a word, Zhang Chunran never mentioned these things to him.
No wonder she felt reluctance when she was assigned the task of checking her mobile phone. She dared to hide something on purpose.
When the time came, the student added another word, "These are all our guesses, just for reference to Senior Tu, we are not responsible for the truth."
Tu San: "I know, thank you."
After the students had left, Tu San leaned his back against the wall, closed his eyes, and rubbed his hands.
Mrs. Liu also mentioned the matter of checking her mobile phone, and she didn't pay much attention to it at the time, but after they talked about it, it seemed that the matter was not that simple.
After a few days of understanding, he probably knew Lou Qiang's personality and way of handling things. Director Liu must have done something that stepped on her bottom line, so there would be subsequent quarrels.
What exactly is in Lou Qiang's phone?It can make Director Liu restless.
Tu San turned around and went to the teacher's office to ask for a schedule.
Unfortunately, physical education class is the day after tomorrow.
After two days of torment, the opportunity finally came.
After all the students had gone out for physical education class, Tu San looked around, sneaked into the classroom like a thief, and went straight to Lou Qiang's seat.
Carefully remove the stool without making any movement, squat down, and reach out to dig in the hole in the table. When took it out, there was an extra mobile phone in hand.
For some reason, a strange feeling crossed his mind.
Not caring about where the weirdness came from, Tu San vigilantly took a look outside the classroom, and checked his phone after making sure it was empty.
The password was drawn from Zhang Chunran's mouth, and Tu San entered it with the mentality of taking a gamble.
The screen flickered and the lock screen opened.
The whole process went smoothly.
From photo albums to chat records, smear one by one, click and swipe.
Time passed by every minute and every second, and no useful information was captured from the beginning to the end.
Suddenly, Tu San froze, his hands were dripping with sweat, his fingers stuck to the screen and it was difficult to slide, a feeling of uneasiness shot up from his back.
next second.
"What are you doing."
A cold voice sounded.
When Tu San turned around, he took the opportunity to turn sideways and hid the phone behind his back. His face was as calm as ever, and he smiled at Lou Qiang with vigilant eyes, and returned the phone to her unhurriedly.
He calmly said: "Just now I accidentally knocked over your table, and your phone fell out. I was afraid that the screen would break, so I checked it. You can take a look again. If something breaks, I will compensate you."
Lou Qiang took the phone and said without even looking at it, "No need."
As if he already knew what he was doing.
Tu San knew he was wrong, faced Lou Qiang's silent gaze, scratched his nose in embarrassment, and either left or stayed.
"Xiao Qiang, why did you run back?" Zhang Chunran, who was sweating profusely, broke in in time, breaking the stalemate between them.
"Let's go, the teacher is going to start measuring the 800 meters."
Lou Qiang: "I'll come as soon as I get some water."
Seeing Tu San, Zhang Chunran was surprised and said, "Senior Tu, why are you here at this time?"
Tu San glanced at Qiang downstairs, but said: "I'm here to find you."
Zhang Chunran was stunned for a moment, and immediately remembered that he had boasted that he had gone to Haikou to help him investigate the case, but he hadn't made any progress so far. He thought that Tu San was here to ask the teacher for his crimes, so he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.
She wiped off the sweat from her forehead, lowered her head, glanced sideways, and landed on Lou Qiang's hand.
She asked curiously, "Xiao Qiang, when did you get a new phone?"
Lou Qiang looked away, "It was changed a few days ago."
Zhang Chunran said "Oh", grabbed her wrist and walked out, "Come on, the teacher is calling for someone."
"Senior Tu, let's go to class first."
"Well, let's go."
Tu San watched them leave, stepped out of the classroom door, Lou Qiang turned around intentionally or unintentionally, met Tu San's scrutinizing eyes, and quickly retracted.
Tu San stared at the place where they disappeared, without moving for a long time, he finally understood where the weird feeling came from.
It turned out to be a new phone.
No wonder the first time saw it, thought it was too new, and there were very few things inside.
It's just that Lou Qiang changed it out of a whim, or to destroy the evidence, it's not known.
Waiting until they finished class, Tu San sat under the big flower tree at the school gate to enjoy a moment of tranquility, snow-white petals like rice grains were scattered one after another, students in uniforms came and went, Zhang Chunran passed through the crowd, hesitantly came to himside.
"I'm sorry, Senior Tu." Zhang Chunran fiddled with his fingers awkwardly, lowering his head and not daring to look at him, "I didn't find any useful information."
Tu San guessed it would be like this, he asked: "Why are you lying to me?"
"I don't have one!" Zhang Chunran waved her hands in panic.
"No? Why did you hide the fact that Liu Yihe had a violent conflict with Lou Qiang?"
Zhang Chunran became bewildered by the naked eye, facing Tu San's suspicious gaze, tried to explain several times but couldn't utter a word.
Tu San couldn't believe her anymore, he got up and was about to leave, Zhang Chunran realized it, and hurriedly chased him and grabbed him.
Tu San stood still and turned around, looking down at her, Zhang Chunran immediately let go, "I'm sorry, Senior Tu, I didn't mean it... just... I just don't want you to think that Xiao Qiang is a murderer, and I don't want Xiao Qiang to be abused againhurt."
Tu San: "But the more you conceal, the more likely it will be counterproductive. Once there is a crack in the trust between people, the seeds of doubt will fall in and take root. Compared with what you say, I believe in the part of the thing you concealed.It is the truth, if you are really for Lou Qiang's good, she is really innocent, you should have told me everything from the beginning."
Zhang Chunran's face was a little pale, and it took a long time before he said angrily: "I, I know, I won't hide it from now on."
An imperceptible smile appeared on his face as cold as scattered ice cubes.
He purposely pretended to be serious and indifferent, put on an imposing manner and put on airs to overwhelm others, and he was careful not to scare Zhang Chunran from talking to him again, but also to make her feel in awe of himself, which was appropriate.The sense of oppression brought by her overlooking can make her words more credible.
Zhang Chunran was obviously taken aback by his sudden seriousness, after all, he has always been affable and talkative.
It's almost there, Tu Sanxin said.
"You're tired after gym class, eat a piece of chocolate to replenish your energy." Tu San's voice softened a lot, and he handed her the chocolate, which was her favorite lemon cookie flavor.
The simplest and most useful way to pry open a mouth is to give a sweet date with a stick.
Tu San has come into contact with many prisoners who are stubborn and refuse to tell the truth, and he understands this truth better than anyone else.
No matter how vicious the prisoner was, no matter how arrogant and domineering he was at the beginning, he would have to bow his head and beg him for help in the end. Compared to that, taking in a student was a piece of cake.
The physical education class was followed by the experimental class. Zhang Chunran, with chocolate in his mouth, sat under the flower tree with Tu San, and did not move when the class bell rang.
"You don't have to go to class?" Tu San asked.
At this time, the atmosphere between the two had returned to its usual harmony.
Zhang Chunran: "A group of two people, this experiment is as simple as pinching mud for Xiao Qiang, it can be done in ten minutes, it doesn't matter if I go or not."
Tu San nodded.
Well, it's time to clarify things.
"Can you tell me why you want to hide the matter about Director Liu and Lou Qiang?" Tu San asked.
Zhang Chunran lowered his head, tangled in his heart for a while, thinking of Tu San's stern words just now, looked at his shoe upper, and muttered softly: "It's not Du Yilan's fault."
Tu San: "Why is it her again? Wasn't she gone at that time?"
Zhang Chunran stomped on the petals on the ground, and said with undisguised distaste: "Even if the evil spirit dies, it will cause others to live in peace!"
"It's actually a long story."
"During the second year of high school, Du Yilan suddenly became motivated one day. In class, she sat down and listened carefully to the class. After class, she followed the teacher's ass and asked questions. For a whole week, she didn't cause any trouble, and she didn't fool around with her old cronies anymore., Quietly, she seemed to be a different person, and we were startled, thinking she had been taken away by Lou Qiang."
Tu San: "Can't she take the initiative to make progress?"
Zhang Chunran laughed mockingly, and said, "Senior Tu, you don't know that this beautiful but stupid Canglan goddess once shouted a very loud slogan to the principal, 'It's better to sell sweet potatoes than to study'."
People who can say this kind of thing really don't seem to be able to read books honestly.
It is difficult for a person's behavior to undergo diametrically opposite changes in a short period of time unless there is a major blow.
Tu San guessed that maybe something major happened in her family that hit her.
Zhang Chunran's next words confirmed his conjecture.
"Later we found out that something happened to her family. Her parents died in a car accident during the summer vacation of her first year of high school. Without the blessing of her parents, the noble goddess is nothing. I once wished to be with her 24 hours a day.The sisters run faster than anyone else, and Director Liu no longer favors her. Every time she comes to school, no one will rush to bring her breakfast. In one night, she has everything she should have and nothing. So, she has to lower her proud head, pick up the textbooks, and shoulder your own future alone.”
"The teachers looked at her seriously and knew that her parents were gone, so they wanted to help her. When changing seats, let her choose a tablemate with good grades."
Here, Zhang Chunran played tricks, "Guess who she chose?"
Tu San thought for a while, then boldly said: "Lou Qiang?"
Zhang purely acquiesced.
Tu San: "I never expected that she would choose Lou Qiang."
Stealing someone's scholarship, making trouble in front of his grandfather's hospital bed, framing him for stealing things, slandering him for throwing sulfuric acid... One after another, Lou Qiang should hate her to death, how dare she choose her own rival?
"We didn't expect that either." Zhang Chunran smiled helplessly, "She is quite smart sometimes."
"The tree falls and the monkeys scatter. With her talent for causing trouble everywhere, there are not many people in the class who really have a good relationship with her. Some people are just forced to put up with her. Although Xiaoqiang is cold to others, she will notPeople stumbling me behind the scenes, the teacher gave her the task, whether she likes it or not, she will complete it earnestly." Zhang Chunran said: "Du Yilan chose the right person."
"With Xiaoqiang's help, her grades improved very quickly. She couldn't reach the level of a top student, but she was still above the class average. But her grades skyrocketed with her face. Xiaoqiang helped her entirely because of the teacher.In order to get into the school of her choice, she pestered Xiaoqiang to take her to participate in the competition, and forgot all about bullying Xiaoqiang before."
Thinking of that annoying face, Zhang Chunran became angry, "Thankfully, Xiao Qiang is easy to soften her heart. If it were me, I would put caterpillars in her schoolbag every day and scare her to death."
"Puff." Tu San laughed, seeing her fierceness, she wanted to eat Du Yilan, and thought there would be some serious revenge, but this is it.
Sure enough, he is still a child, and his mind is not bad.
Zhang Chunran pursed his lips, like a big cat whose disguise of a tiger has been punctured, and became angry from embarrassment, "What are you laughing at?!"
Tu San: "Ahem, it's nothing, you're cute, and then, let's continue."
"Later, Xiaoqiang was so entangled that she couldn't help it, so she agreed to her, but..."
"What was the result?"
Zhang Chunran froze, and his tone suddenly sank, feeling disappointed but not sentimental, "In the end, something happened to Du Yilan that night."
Tu San remembered that she was killed because she climbed over the wall at night, and asked, "Why did she go out in the middle of the night?"
"Because Xiao Qiang let her go out."
"Lou Qiang? Why?!"
