Chapter 45: The Old Case from Years Ago (2)

  Xianhuan sent Xianqi back home and then drove to the police station, took out the key to open the door of the file room, and searched for the words "Xingren Experimental High School" in a row of neatly arranged file bags.

  Xianhuan had already made up his mind. Since the hallucination appeared in school, he would start investigating from this school!

  Xianhuan suddenly brightened up, his fingers paused, and he pulled out the file bag. He came to his own office desk and carefully flipped through it. Xingren High School has a history of over 100 years, this thick file was really dazzling him.

  Suddenly, a few lines of neat text in front of him caught Xianhuan's attention. It was a small piece of newspaper that had been cut out and pasted on, with the title:

  "A female student from Xingren High School who had been missing for three days was found in the toilet water tank of a teaching building." The picture below the headline is pixelated, but it can still be clearly seen that a female corpse is submerged in blood-red water, with black hair floating on the surface, making one feel nauseous and chilled to the bone.

  "A female student surnamed Chen from Xingren Experimental High School, who went missing three days ago, was found dead in the school's teaching building toilet by a classmate who had gone to use the restroom. The first eyewitness said 'the body was already swollen and discolored from being submerged in water, and the water in the pool had also turned red.' After forensic examination, it was determined that the fatal wound was on her wrist, and preliminary findings suggest that she died from excessive bleeding after slashing her artery with a sharp object... Xianhuan looked at the dense small print below the title, his mind filled with doubts. Could it be that Xiaoyan's vision wasn't an illusion?"

  Looking back, there is no more record of the female corpse in the blood pool. It turned out that the reason for the abandonment of the teaching building was not its age, but a homicide case. The students were terrified, and the government invested in rebuilding and replacing the new teaching building to retain the source of students.

  He closed the file, and Xian Huang's heart was in a panic. Did Xiao Yan already know about the murder case from back then? Otherwise, how could she have seen the corpse in the water tank? Maybe it was just a coincidence...

  After calming down, Hyun put the file bag back in its original place and found the autopsy report of the murder case five years ago in the line of corpse examination.

  Years of involvement in criminal investigation cases told him that Xiaoyan's hallucination must have some connection with this murder case!

  Perhaps it's not an illusion, but rather, there really are some scientifically inexplicable things that exist...

  Found the autopsy report on that case, Hyun-ho was engrossed in reading it.

  Deceased: Chen Xinyan, Sex: Female, Age: 17 years old, Time of death: Within 4 hours, Cause of death: Artery cut by sharp object at left wrist, resulting in excessive blood loss. Other injuries: Two suspected bruises on left forearm, lower body swollen... Conclusion: Suicide.

  Zhang Xianhao was puzzled in his heart, disappeared for three days, with bruises on his body and red swelling below, why would he still be concluded as a suicide case? Turning back to think about it, at that time this case had no witnesses or evidence, and there was huge public opinion pressure, concluding it as a suicide case was also a way out, so they could only give the deceased's parents some money and bury the case like that.

  Xian Huang thought that if he wanted to investigate this case again, it would be even more difficult than before. After all, five years had passed. And what did the person who let Xiao Yan see the female corpse in the blood pool want to do? No one knew.

  Xian Huang reported, although he knew in his heart that Xiao Yan's discovery was closely related to this suicide case, he couldn't do anything about it and could only prepare to investigate secretly, trying his luck, perhaps finding evidence to reopen the case.

  Zhang Xianhao turned around and opened the computer again, searching for information about this case on Baidu, which knew everything, and secretly memorizing useful messages in his heart.

  It was already 4 am, Hyun took a yawn, got up and turned off the computer, picked up his coat and left the police station, thinking that he would go home to catch up on some sleep, and then have the energy to go to school in the afternoon.
