Chen Bai looked at the piles of papers and homework on the table and had a headache. Although it was summer vacation and university, the Public Security University was different from ordinary universities. There were internships and homework during the summer vacation. He now had to give instructions to each police station.
He uses the assessment to rate his own students. In fact, Chen Bai is not willing to do such a thing. Not everyone can become an excellent profiler, so this kind of thing should not be an important prerequisite for students to successfully graduate.
"Why don't you go back?"
Bai Hongwei looked at Chen Bai's frowning expression and was a little confused. Wasn't the case solved? Why are you still looking so sad?
"Your work is done, but my work is not yet done!"
Bai Hongwei picked up a book and flipped through it, then quickly put it back and said.
"I don't understand these things. I recognize your strength, but I think that in order to solve the case, criminal investigation knowledge is more important."
Chen Bai smiled and said nothing. Of course, this kind of old policeman doesn't have much trust in criminal profiling, but this is normal. After all, this kind of thing is not so popular yet.
"I don't mean anything else. I still recognize your strength. I just think this..."
"Okay, okay, I still don't know what you mean? Go back and rest quickly! I'm tired after so many days!"
Bai Hongwei nodded, and when he walked to the door, he suddenly looked back at Chen Bai and asked.
"Chen Bai, actually I still don't understand a little bit. Guan Fang killed Shen Man in order to use her identity to leave. But since she has arrived in a strange city, why not change her identity back? If those people are capable
It is impossible to cross the city to arrest people. Moreover, it is possible to start over in a completely unfamiliar environment, so why would she still kill people?"
Chen Bai put down his paper, lit a cigarette and said.
"Guan Haijun used her to pay back money, and Guan Bin helped others catch her. This made Guan Fang think that as long as she was still here, she would never be able to escape this kind of life, so she began to hate her own life and at the same time began to hate this society.
She thought why she was the only one living in such dire straits, and she couldn’t figure out why. So, she began to steal other people’s lives continuously, and she wanted to know if other people’s lives were also so painful.”
It's halfway through the summer vacation. Although it's a rare holiday for students, for Du Yu, it doesn't matter whether it's a holiday or not.
"Get up, get up, look at what time it is, do you still want to complete your plan? Are you going to make your mother angry to death?"
The woman opened the door angrily, and what she saw was her son sitting at the desk, doing his homework conscientiously.
"I have told you so many times that the first thing you do after getting up is to endorse. Look how much time you have wasted in the morning. It is now five twenty. At five forty, mother will check what she left for you yesterday.
Assignment, I hope you can complete the recitation."
After the woman went out, the boy reluctantly picked up the book next to him. He spent the whole summer vacation going back and forth between homework and cram school without ever taking a break.
"The grass grows taller and brighter every year..."
After listening to her son finish reciting, the woman's face softened slightly.
"Son, I hope you can understand that you are already in third grade now. Don't think that the college entrance examination is still far away for you. It is imminent. Mom has made this college entrance examination countdown sign for you since you were born.
Let you know how important the college entrance examination is to your life. Those children who cannot get into a good school will be finished for the rest of their lives. Their lives have no meaning. I don’t want you to live a meaningless life, do you understand? "
"Mom, it's time for the math test!"
The boy pointed at the wall clock in the living room. When the woman heard this, she quickly took out her exercise book and placed it in front of the boy.
"Yes, yes, mom talked too much just now. You hurry up and do your exercises. Mom will make breakfast for you."
The boy returned to his room with the exercise book. In addition to the desk and bed, this small room of less than ten square meters was a huge bookcase, which contained exercises from all over the country. His mother's goal for himself was to do at least 10 exercises every year.
Complete the exercises on the three bookcases.
"Children today have a hard time. My sister's child is only in sixth grade and has to attend morning and evening self-study classes. School doesn't end until 8:30 every day. The most terrifying thing is that after such evening self-study classes, the school also has make-up classes.
In the advanced class, school doesn't get out until ten o'clock. After I go back, I do my homework until two o'clock in the morning, and I have to go to school at six o'clock for early self-study. Is it really necessary to be in the sixth grade of elementary school?"
As soon as Chen Bai walked into the office, he heard Da Binzi talking to someone else.
"Don't you understand? This is called adaptive education. If your life is the same as your senior year in high school every day since kindergarten, you won't feel the pain when you actually reach your senior year in high school."
Kong Bingxuan thinks this is normal. Which child doesn't study hard nowadays? Besides, they all came from children. Don't they know whether school is tiring or not?
"Sixth grade, sixth grade, that's not senior year!"
"Do you know how long it will take after you graduate from elementary school to take the college entrance examination? Shouldn't you be nervous?"
Seeing that the two people were getting louder and louder, Bai Hongwei quickly interrupted them.
"You don't have to work anymore, right? Go to work quickly, don't worry about what you should worry about, and worry about what you shouldn't worry about."
After the two of them left, Bai Hongwei shook his head helplessly and said.
"My neighbor's child is already enrolled in early education classes when he is only one and a half years old. This child is only one and a half years old and is attending some kind of cram school. Every day I can hear the child crying heartbreakingly when he leaves home."
Chen Bai lit a cigarette and said helplessly.
"Today's parents always think that if they work so hard, why go to school? But they don't understand that if you don't go well at work, you can complain. If you don't go well with study, it's your own problem. But this principle has been used by people who leave school.
I do not understand."
As soon as Chen Bo stretched his body, the phone in his office rang.
"okay, I get it."
Chen Bai looked at Bai Hongwei with something wrong in his eyes and asked quickly.
"What happened?"
"A child from Binhai No. 1 High School jumped off the building. His body is now on the playground. The local police station asked us to come over."
When Bai Hongwei and others arrived, the school leaders were waiting anxiously at the door. Watching Bai Hongwei and others arrive, a middle-aged man hurriedly greeted them.
"Now that you're here, my place is in chaos."
Seeing the man's anxious look, everyone followed him to the place where the child jumped without saying anything.
"Just now it was our time to do exercises between classes, but we didn't expect that while we were doing exercises, someone suddenly pointed to the roof of the teaching building. When we looked up, we saw someone standing on it. Before we could react,
The child came down from upstairs."
Everyone saw that the child who fell to the ground had his limbs twisted, his head was bleeding, and the blood stained the ground red.
"Take me up there and see!"
Chen Bai knew that the most important thing now was to find out whether the child jumped down by himself or was pushed down. This is very important.
"this....."
But for some reason, when Chen Bai made this request, the principal seemed a little embarrassed.
"What are you doing? Is there any inconvenience?"
Chen Bai was a little puzzled, and the principal thought for a while and said helplessly.
"That's right. In fact, this child jumped down by himself. All the teachers and students in our school saw him jumping down from the building...so..."
Looking at the principal's expression, Chen Bai felt helpless. It seemed that the principal wanted to resolve the matter by committing suicide.
"It's up to you whether it's suicide or not. We have to look at it. And I didn't realize it until just now. Isn't this summer vacation? Why are you still in class?"
"No, no, no, we are not in class. We are voluntarily providing a place for students to write homework and review. It is not a make-up lesson, not a make-up lesson."
The principal was a little scared. After all, it would be a big deal if someone found out that they were making up classes illegally during the holidays.
"It doesn't matter whether you make up the class now or not. Of course we don't care whether you make up the class or not. I just know that now that a life has happened, we must investigate. Take us to the roof of the building quickly."
The principal looked around, pointed at a man in his thirties and said.
"Director Xiong, take the police comrades upstairs to have a look!"
Bai Hongwei asked Song Anchun to continue checking the body while he and Chen Bai went upstairs to see what was going on.
"Your school is really good. During the summer vacation, you can still do your homework at school and get special tutoring from teachers?"
When the man heard what Chen Bai said, he immediately became interested and said excitedly.
"That's natural. The teaching quality of our school has always been good. The reason is that we have maintained strict requirements for decades. No child who enters our high school is bad at learning."
Looking at the director's expression, Bai Hongwei suddenly said something.
"But you are only complaining about the quality of teaching, but you don't even know that students have jumped off buildings?"
The director didn't know what to say for a moment, so he could only apologize in embarrassment.
"Of course I know this. I know that we may have some shortcomings. It is normal for high school children to have a lot of learning pressure. Some children are not able to bear it mentally and will have various problems. But these
There’s also something we can’t do.”
Chen Bai didn't speak, and everyone lowered their heads. Seeing that everyone was silent, the director had no choice but to lead the way.
"This is the roof!"
Everyone came to the roof, and when they opened the door, Chen Bai stopped them.
"It just rained yesterday. There are footprints here. You should be careful."
Everyone nodded, Chen Bai walked around the footprints, and the trace inspection people came over to take pictures of the footprints one by one.
"It doesn't look like homicide?"
Bai Hongwei came to the guardrail, where the student jumped. Chen Bai saw that the roof of the school was a garbage dump, with bottles of various drinks, leftover packaging, and many cigarette butts.
"Director Xiong, right? What is this place doing? Why is there so much garbage?"
Chen Bai was a little embarrassed. It was not easy to find clues in this place. Director Xiong also felt very embarrassed and kept his head down without speaking.
"Judging from the place where the body fell from the building, it is indeed a suicide, because if a person jumps on his own initiative, the person with the center of gravity in front will be farther away from the building, but if the person is pushed down, the center of gravity will be with the person behind him.
close."
After Bai Hongwei finished speaking, Chen Bai also nodded. Although what Bai Hongwei said is right, it does not mean that he committed suicide by jumping. There are still many doubts here.
"Evidence must be preserved for all the footprints here. It's not that simple."
Chen Bai looked around, looked at Director Xiong and asked.
"By the way, I want to ask who usually comes to this place? Or is this a place where everyone in your school comes?"
"this......"
Chen Bai walked to Director Xiong, put his hand on Director Xiong's shoulder and said.
"I know you work hard for your children, but it wouldn't be good if something like this happened during the summer vacation! This place is so dangerous, should it be locked at ordinary times? Also, show us the school's surveillance camera."
After Chen Bai finished speaking, the director could only say helplessly.
"Yes, yes, this is our dereliction of duty. I will take you to the monitoring room right away."
As soon as the two came down, Da Binzi came over with a stack of information.
"The deceased's name is Wu Yang, a student in Class 30. Wu Yang usually doesn't interact much with his classmates. His academic performance is average and he is in the middle of the class. Wu Yang also has a younger sister, Wu Fang. Wu Fang is currently studying in the second year of high school.
A child with excellent grades is a good child in the eyes of the teacher."
Chen Bai nodded, and at this time everyone also came to the monitoring room.
"It seems like Wu Yang really went up there by himself?"
Although everyone does not believe it, they can only accept the fact that Wu Yang committed suicide.
"Officer, I know this is our dereliction of duty. We promise to strictly monitor the students in the future. From today on, I will lock the roof and will not let anyone go up there."
Chen Bai turned around, stared at Director Xiong with his eyes, and spoke word by word.
"What do you mean? You mean this matter is over, right? Have you thought about how to tell the parents of this child?"
Director Xiong was a little helpless after hearing these words, but he also knew that he couldn't say anything else at this time.
"What's wrong? Do you think there's something wrong?"
Bai Hongwei watched Chen Bai staring at the monitor without saying a word and asked quickly, but Chen Bai just stared at the monitor without speaking for a long time before speaking.
"What do I think is wrong with Wu Yang's appearance? You see, Wu Yang came out of the classroom first. At this time, Wu Yang seemed very anxious, but from the direction Wu Yang walked, it can be seen that he was heading towards
We went to the other side of the stairs, where is this, Director Xiong?"
"Ah? That's the toilet!"
Chen Bai nodded, looked at Bai Hongwei and said.
"Okay, let's assume that Wu Yang ran out of the classroom because he was in a hurry to go to the toilet. What happened after that? It took more than half an hour before Wu Yang walked out from there. After that, Wu Yang didn't go back but went straight to the toilet.
On the roof of the building, the surveillance was gone at this time. What happened in this half hour? It is very likely that this half hour decided Wu Yang's suicide."
Everyone was lost in thought. Director Xiong wanted to say something but shut up when he saw the look in Chen Bai's eyes.
"Director Xiong, please take us to Wu Yang's class first!"
When everyone came to the classroom, they happened to be studying for self-study. Chen Bai saw everyone lowering their heads and doing their homework without saying anything, so he had to call the teacher on the podium first.
"Are you Wu Yang's class teacher?"
"No, I'm a math teacher!"
The man on the podium was a somewhat bald middle-aged man. The man was very thin, wearing a half-sleeved shirt and glasses, and looked like an old scholar.
"Did you notice when Wu Yang went out?"
The man shook his head, with some regret in his tone.
"At that time, it happened to be the break between classes. The students were all exercising on the playground. I also went back to the office to take a rest. There was no one to take them with me. I knew that our school would bear a heavy responsibility for Wu Yang's death.
However, Wu Yang’s usual academic performance is average, and sometimes he even drags down the class. I have told Wu Yang more than once that he must improve his overall performance. If Wu Yang could make up for the difference with me at that time,
Nothing like this will happen in our class."
The man's eyes turned red as he spoke, but Chen Bai noticed that several classmates in the classroom were whispering something, so Chen Bai looked at Director Xiong and asked.
"Director Xiong, it's like this. I'd like to have a few words with Wu Yang's classmates. What do you think?"
Director Xiong looked a little embarrassed, but at this moment the math teacher spoke first.
"They are all still children. What happened to them is a blow to their hearts. You should not deepen their impression of this incident."
Although this sounds reasonable, students are always the ones who know them best, and they will never tell the truth about some things.
"What you said is good, but if we don't investigate this matter clearly, what will happen if it happens again? Are you saying that you want to make the entire school airtight?"
Director Xiong was helpless, and the man on the side could only say.
"Yes, yes, what you said makes sense, but after all, we are still in class now, and it will be noon soon. You can take advantage of this time to ask. I know the seriousness of this matter, but please try not to delay our children.
Is it okay to study?”
Bai Hongwei wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Chen Bai.
"Okay, if that's the case, we'll ask again at noon!"
"Thank you, then I will continue the class."
After saying that, the man walked back to the classroom, looked at the child lying on the table writing papers, and cleared his throat.
"I know Wu Yang was a good classmate of yours, and I am very sad that he is gone. I hope you can actively cooperate with the police without delaying your studies, and find out the reason why Wu Yang jumped from the building as soon as possible. You are all in the same class.
Yes, I know you all have feelings, I..."
The man's eyes turned red again when he said this, and everyone was moved by it. Bai Hongwei outside the door also smiled bitterly.
"What a good teacher. If we can't find out the cause of Wu Yang's death, I feel sorry for this teacher."
Everyone nodded, but only Chen Bai remained serious and did not speak.
"What’s wrong with you?"
"It's okay, I'm going to the toilet!"
Chen Bai followed the route Wu Yang took out of the class and walked to the toilet, but after checking around, he found nothing.
