Chapter 172 Strange News(1/2)
Xinjiang Town High School.
Originally, this place should be the only high school in the town and the place where students carry hope.
At this time, there were almost no students, and they became a place in the town to process information in a concentrated manner.
This high school is not big. After the catastrophe, various classrooms were gradually transformed into material storage or weapons storage. Even the school dormitories were divided and requisitioned for front-line personnel who were conducting land reclamation in the Zhan Song Canyon.
At this time, in an office of the original university, Chen Chu flipped through the documents on his desk, and Ning Qi was silently staring blankly next to him, occasionally helping Chen Chu get some documents.
Because she has learned Braille since she was a child, she basically can't understand the things on these materials.
According to the documents, there were 8 people who were confirmed to be missing, three of whom were high school students, two were school employees, and three were new members of the team.
In addition, there were the deputy mayor who encountered the attack and four members of the logistics department who died yesterday.
Chen Chu carefully checked the information of each victim and soon saw some unusual meaning.
From high school students, to teachers, to deputy mayors and logistics departments, Chen Chu could even clearly see a fire thief's action route.
Although his speculation would be biased, the fire thief was probably originally a member of the school.
The possibility of being a student is high, and the school’s faculty and staff are not ruled out.
He should have known by accident that he could also gain explorers by killing his companions, and then start from the people around him, and then expand to classmates or teachers who had conflicts.
Then he tasted the sweetness again and began to look at the front-line team in the town.
This person can kill a deputy mayor at level 15, and must have completed all achievement tasks and exceeded the level 10 limit.
If you continue to think about it this way, the scope can be narrowed a lot.
Even if the limit can break through the level 10 limit, I'm afraid that the fire thief himself is a member of the front-line team.
"Are you sure these are all the information?" Chen Chu asked Zeng Yun: "There should be any statistics?"
"Also, have your group members registered? Are there any recent deaths list counted?"
Chen Chu asked several questions to Zeng Yun in succession, but unfortunately, Zeng Yun's expression was a little helpless:
"These are all information, and a lot of things are stored on the computer, and there is only a limited amount of information we can find."
"The members of the group have registered, but the list of deaths... This is not easy to count." Zeng Yun felt a little embarrassed.
Although Xinjiang Town has entered a period of peaceful development, many data are very difficult to count. Their daily actions are usually fixed in the school playground.
Recently, more detailed team divisions have begun, but unexpectedly, this is the case.
"I want to check the list of students in Class 1, Grade 2. If you have the conditions, it is best to find out if there are any information files for other students."
Chen Chu paused and pointed to two of the information. Among the three missing high school students, two were from Class 1, Grade 2, and the other was a girl from Grade 3.
Although these are not members of the front-line group, they all live near the school.
The first day of the catastrophe was September 1st, which was the first class that had just started. Many students escaped and returned home, but some students who were far away from home eventually stayed at the school for various reasons.
"Do you suspect it's a student?" Zeng Yun asked curiously.
She actually considered this, but the students' mobility is too high and it is not easy to deal with.
"Actually, during my dinner that day, I also wanted to find a student to ask about the situation, and then I encountered an attack on the way." Zeng Yun added.
"Hmm? Then why is this information not marked?"
"I thought you knew..." Zeng Yun felt a little embarrassed. She was dealing with the follow-up matters of the deputy mayor yesterday and today. She was too busy to do it.
"Okay." Chen Chu nodded: "Where is that student?"
"It should be still at the intersection of Xuli Street. Their house runs a bookstore. We encountered an attack halfway through that day and did not contact the girl."
"Okay, then go and take a look now." Chen Chu waved to Ning Qi.
Ning Qi is now bored looking at the illustrations on some books, and she is still very interested in some books in the school.
Especially in this office, there should have been a math teacher before, and Ning Qi is very sensitive to numbers.
...........
...........
Walking out of the school, Chen Chu took Ning Qi straight to the bookstore Zeng Yun mentioned.
Chen Chu had a little impression of this place, and he would basically never forget the places he walked.
Zeng Yun didn't come with him because he had other things to deal with. After about twenty minutes, Chen Chu had arrived at the entrance of the bookstore.
“Sanmu Bookstore.”
The sign at the entrance of the bookstore is already a little down, but it looks very neat. This kind of neatness will make people feel relieved when the catastrophe comes.
Of course, the door of the bookstore is tightly closed, and a small door behind it is half-closed, and it seems that someone is still living on the second floor.
Chen Chu was not polite, and took Ning Qi in directly.
There was already a faint fragrance of ink in the air, and there was a staircase leading directly to the second floor at the entrance, which was very quiet on it.
Chen Chu stepped onto the stairs directly, and then he heard a slight sound. Someone probably discovered his arrival.
Sure enough, two seconds later, the door creaked from the upper end of the stairs, and a head looked down carefully from above.
It's a girl.
The girl wore a ponytail and had air bangs in front. The light in the stairwell was a little dim, but she could also feel the girl's appearance was very pretty.
The girl was obviously startled when she saw a stranger coming.
"Who are you???"
The girl's voice is very thin. Although it is a warning, it always has a kind of knowledgeable and reasonable atmosphere.
After all, my family is a bookstore and I must be a family with literary literacy.
"We came to ask about the situation at the school. Now something has happened in the school. We need to find you a little bit of information." Chen Chu answered directly, without avoiding it, but continued to walk upwards.
The girl suddenly became nervous, but fortunately, there was a Ning Qi following behind Chen Chu. She was beautiful, and her first impression would not be considered a bad person.
Chen Chu quickly walked to the girl's side. The girl's name is Han Rui. The file photos in the archives are very beautiful. Now that I have seen the real person, I have already made people feel that there is a prototype of a beautiful woman.
"Han Rui, 16 years old, Class 1, Grade 2, and the head teacher is Tsui Hark." Chen Chujian explained the information clearly and walked into her room regardless of Han Rui's reaction.
After a gentle glance, there was a large living room on the second floor, with some books and paintings piled up in the living room. Now Han Rui should be reading books and painting at home.
However, when Chen Chu saw the window, he couldn't help but frown.
Because on the edge of the window, he saw something that shouldn't have appeared here.
An air gun.
If it is an ordinary farmer's home, or on the edge of the town, it is not surprising that an air gun appears.
However, this family is obviously a bookstore and looks very quiet. The air gun here is incompatible with the atmosphere here.
Although Chen Chu's behavior was a bit abrupt, Han Rui could only accept the fact that Chen Chu broke into the house.
But she also had a little more shock in her eyes at this time.
Because she heard Chen Chu's speech just now, she thought she was a teacher at the school, but now she looks like Chen Chu is not much older than herself.
"Do you know these two people?"
Chen Chu took out two files and put them in front of Han Rui.
Han Rui looked at Chen Chu with a strange expression, hesitated for about two or three seconds, and nodded.
"know."
"What are you nervous?" Chen Chu did not continue to ask, but stared at Han Rui tightly.
From the first moment he entered the door, she found Han Rui a little nervous. This tension was not the kind of nervousness when she met a stranger, but other things hidden in her heart.
Chen Chu asked her if she knew the two missing students, and she just asked knowingly, wanting to see how she performed when she answered.
Chen Chu never believed what others said. What he was more willing to believe was a person's micro-expression and special habits when facing sudden problems.
"I....."
Sure enough, Chen Chu's topic suddenly changed. When asked what she was nervous about, Han Rui was a little overwhelmed.
Her eyes glanced at the documents slightly, a little reluctant to speak.
"So judging from your appearance, you should know these two people?"
Chen Chu asked:
"Or it's like these two people are closer to whom they are in the class."
"Do you know this person?" Chen Chu took out the third document, which was the missing student in the third year of high school. All of them were placed in front of Han Rui.
"It's okay, you can say it slowly, or say all the strange things you have encountered recently." Chen Chu first raised a lot of questions and tightened Han Rui's psychological defense.
Others may treat Han Rui as half a child.
But Chen Chu directly questioned her as a suspect.
Chen Chu even had an intuition that the so-called fire thief was definitely related to this girl.
