"The person hiding in the sixth cubicle is Fan Yu's father!" Before reading the notes, Chen Ge had not considered this possibility. "Looks like Fan Yu's aunt is hiding something important."
When Chen Ge was speculating about the killer, he had been missing an important piece of information, which was the motive. The appearance of these notes pointed Chen Ge in the right direction.
"There are three notes in total, and the handwriting is different. In other words, there are at least three people who know about Teacher Fan's dirty deeds. This shouldn't be a malicious threat."
Chen Ge did not touch the notes inside the book. Due to the passage of time, the paper was very fragile. He was afraid that he might ruin this important piece of evidence.
"The handwriting on the paper is very clear. There is no attempt to hide anything. Teacher Fan probably left these three notes to catch these three students through handwriting comparison. After all, Mu Yang High School is not that big, and with his position, he should have finished checking all the students' handwriting in three days. "
Chen Ge memorized the contents of the notes. Actually, he was curious about how these three students had discovered the secret in the cubicle. "Could they all be victims? But based on the tone of the words, it doesn't look like it, especially the last sentence, 'If you don't want to leave, then stay forever.' That doesn't sound like something a victim would say. "
The message conveyed by the three notes was very forceful, but their request sounded like child's play to Chen Ge. The correct way to deal with Fan Yu's father's actions was to call the police and have him face the law. It was not a so-called public apology, because once something was publicized, it would cause secondary harm to the victims, exposing their pain to the world.
"The contents of the notes do look like they were written by students. Could it have been them who tossed Teacher Fan into the well?" They had a motive, but the method and time of the crime did not match up. That night, two adults had disappeared. It did not seem like something that a few students could do to silently dispose of the two adults and cover up the crime scene without leaving any traces.
"I must have missed something." Chen Ge tried to put himself in his father's shoes.
A public apology was impossible for Fan Yu's father. If this matter was exposed, his reputation would be ruined, and he would be punished by the law. He had already made a mistake before he came to Mu Yang High School. If this happened again, he would be a repeat offender, and he would be severely punished.
Fan Yu's father must have known this. That was why he kept the note. He wanted to find the student who threatened him by comparing the handwriting. However, after searching for three days, he found nothing.
"To sum up what we know, there are three notes written by different people. Teacher Fan compared the handwriting of everyone at the school, but he could not find any of them. These three people also discovered the secret of the sixth cubicle, but strangely enough, they did not call the police or the school. Instead, they used the stupidest method that would expose them, which was to threaten Teacher Fan. Lastly, the content on the notes came true."
These were the three points that did not make sense to Chen Ge. Putting them together, the three people who could not be found at the school discovered Teacher Fan's secret of peeping. After warning Teacher Fan to no avail, they made him disappear.
"There is no one who can fit all three of these criteria." Chen Ge had an idea of who the killer was, but he could not be sure.
"There is a girl mentioned in the notes. They want Fan Yu's father to apologize to the girl. If I can find her, many problems can be solved." After recording everything with the camera, Chen Ge closed the book and placed it back.
"These notes were placed inside the book. If not for the fact that I searched the drawer, I would have missed them. Looks like to get to the bottom of this, I have to start from the details. " Chen Ge left the mathematics group's office and carefully searched the other rooms on the second floor. Unfortunately, he found nothing.
"It's already 10: 30 pm. If this continues, the remaining two side missions will be too difficult to complete." Chen Ge came out from the office building with the flashlight. He braved the storm to look for the well, but he did not find it even after an hour.
"Where's the well? The black phone wouldn't have made a mistake! " Chen Ge ran all over the school, but he could not find the well. His shoes and pants were soaked, and he looked quite haggard.
"There's only half an hour left until midnight. I should put the well mission aside for now." Chen Ge gripped the edge of the raincoat and walked toward the education block with his head lowered. He wanted to go to the last classroom to take a look before midnight. If the difficulty of the classroom mission was high as well, then he was prepared to run.
His shoes were wet, so he felt heavy when he walked. Every step he took left a footprint on the ground.
After entering the education block, Chen Ge headed straight for the last classroom. Since he was already there, it was not his style not to go in and take a look.
Standing outside the window, there was only the table in the middle of the classroom with the textbook, pen, and paper. It was very out of place.
"It does look weird."
Mu Yang High School's original location was a crematorium. Chen Ge had read about it on the internet. Some people said that the last classroom corresponded to the crematorium, and it had a heavy Yin energy, which was why the old headmaster had locked the classroom.
Some said that when a class went on a field trip at Mu Yang High School, there was an accident on the bus, and many people died. The class kept returning to class, so the school had to vacate the classroom.
The last explanation was more encouraging. Before Mu Yang High School was closed down, this school was the weakest among all the high schools in Jiujiang, and the average score of the students was undeniably the lowest. In order to change this situation, the school teachers suggested dividing the students into good and bad classes according to their results. The worse the class, the further back they would be. However, this suggestion was rejected by the old principal. He locked the last classroom to encourage the students. No one was born last, and it was wrong to label them as good or bad.
There were many legends about the last classroom at Mu Yang High School. Chen Ge could only remember three of them.
He confirmed the time again, and at 11: 36 pm, he pried open the door of the last classroom and entered it.
Chen Ge moved quickly. His goal was clear — he wanted to get a closer look at the thing on the table in the middle.
When he entered the classroom, he did not feel any different from the outside, but it was quieter.
