China's famous detective Jiangnan: There are ghosts on campus

Chapter 21

It’s a rare good weather, and the warm sunshine shines on the body through the windows. No wonder people always say that the sunshine in winter is the most comfortable. Perhaps only after experiencing the bone-chilling cold can we deeply feel the warmth and preciousness of the sun.

I was sitting at the desk in the library at this time, but what was scattered on it were not books, but old newspapers of various years.

It has been nearly a week since I returned to school, but the police still haven't given a reasonable explanation for the two cases that happened at the school.The plainclothes police were still wandering around the campus, occasionally a few reporters came in from outside, but were also coaxed out by the security guards.More and more people began to pay attention to the murder case at the police academy. I am afraid that if the cases on campus continue like this, the public opinion will one day be unable to suppress it. I believe the pressure on the special case team is not ordinary.

In the past few days, I went to the city library again, but the system was damaged by the dead young man last time, and the information stored in the database was erased, and the old newspapers that existed at that time were scattered in various dates. In the end, I was also taken underground by the young man, so I had to find it by myself.

It is preliminarily determined that the old newspapers that Huang Cong had been looking for were from 2004 to 2007, probably when Huang Cong was in high school.The reason why we start searching from this time period is that a person starts to mature, and the age to understand things is probably from high school. At least most teenagers only read newspapers when they are in high school.In addition, Zhang Yao answered me last time that Huang Cong was looking for old newspapers from five years ago.

As for the title type of the newspaper, I selected three representative newspapers in Hongdu area, Hongdu Times, Yuzhang Metropolis Daily and Hongdu Daily.Most of their histories are more than ten years old, and people basically read these three newspapers in the past.

After several years, these old newspapers are extremely difficult to find. Even if I went to the newspaper office, I couldn't find them all, and it was time-consuming, laborious and expensive.

Investigating cases depends more on strength and patience than on reasoning and brains alone.

I finished flipping through another old newspaper, but still found nothing, it was all ordinary news, nothing outstanding.

"Jiangnan, are you still reading the newspaper? Did you find anything?" Luo Shan's voice came from behind.

"Looking at him like that, he's definitely not there." Turning around and seeing Luo Shan, Zhang Xiaoqi and Zhang Yao walked towards me, Zhang Xiaoqi looked at me with a smile, "Jiangnan, let's change the method. You want to read from these more than 1000 newspapers?" Finding clues is like trying to find gold in the sand, and it's just too unrealistic."

"No, others know what gold looks like when looking for sand, but if you just flip through the newspaper here, do you know what the clue is like? Maybe the clue is not the news in the newspaper but an old newspaper he once wrote. What was written on it, or something else, in short, you can't even confirm what the clue is!"

Zhang Xiaoqi said a series of words, although it was a bit unpleasant, but she did express some useful opinions.

"Yes, Jiangnan, do you think we are looking in the wrong direction? After all, there are too many newspapers, and we don't know what the clues are hidden in the newspapers. Will this be a waste of time?" Luo Shan also asked. Beside agrees.

I didn't refute them, but asked another person standing next to him, Zhang Yao.

"Zhang Yao, what do you think?"

Zhang Yao smiled and said: "It's better to find a needle in a haystack than to do nothing, and Huang Cong was so anxious to find old newspapers, so the newspapers must be related no matter what. Yes. But, I still can't believe that Huang Cong died of murder."

I nodded, what Zhang Yao thought was also what I thought.

I couldn't hide the news from Luo Shan at all, so after all he knew about it, and Zhang Xiaoqi naturally followed in like a cat asking about the smell of fish. As for Zhang Yao, he was invited by me to participate.

In the past few days, through deliberately contacting Zhang Yao, he is still relatively easy-going, not as unreasonable as Luo Shan said, and he is rich in knowledge, especially in investigation and corpse identification.

"What Zhang Yao said is almost what I mean, you should do what you should do." I said softly to them.

"Don't be like this, the weather is so nice outside, why don't we go outside and enjoy the sun while discussing slowly, it's much better than you reading newspapers in the library alone." Zhang Xiaoqi came over and took the paper in my hand. The newspaper grabbed it and tried to pull me up.

"Okay, let go of your hand." I gently struggled away from her hand, and I picked up the newspaper again and said, "Go, I still have so many newspapers to read."

Luo Shan also came over and advised me: "That's right, Jiangnan, these days you are either in the classroom, or staying in the dormitory and library. It's time to go outside and relax."

Zhang Yao was also there to help: "I have been pulled over, so why don't you just agree."

I looked at the pile of newspapers in front of me, and I've read most of the ones on the table, so it's time to look for other years.

Seeing my expression loosen, Zhang Xiaoqi quickly grabbed my clothes and urged, "Let's go! It's rare that the weather is so good."

"Okay then, let go of your hands and wait for me to pack up." I agreed.
