Mystery

Yu Yanning lowered her head and sat there without moving.

He was silent for a long time, and finally heaved a sigh, turned and walked towards his study, and walked out with a biscuit box after rustling for a long time.

The biscuit box looked old and rusted around the edges.

Yu Yanning dialed it several times, but it didn't open.

"Professor Yu, let me try it!" Qi Huan said, and took out a bunch of keys from his pocket.

A nail clipper was hung above the key. He took the rusty biscuit box from Yu Yanning's hand, and then used the nail sharpening knife on the nail clipper to tilt it up, and the biscuit box opened.

There are a lot of things inside, and it looks messy.

There are a lot of photos, a lot of little poems written on notes, and a watch with a brown leather strap.

Yu Yanning didn't explain, but both Shen Ke and Qi Huan understood that this was probably the dust-covered past between him and Zhang Sijia.

Qi Huan returned the biscuit box to Yu Yanning, and Yu Yanning said thank you.

I rummaged through the box again, and found a photo.

His hands trembled slightly, but he still put the photo on the coffee table, side by side with the one Shen Ke brought over.

"That's it."

Shen Ke and Qi Huan leaned over to have a look, both of them felt extremely complicated.

Zhang Sijia in the photo is wearing the long-sleeved dress with white polka dots on a red background in the video. This polka dot is a classic style that has been enduring for a long time from the last century to the present.

Yu Yanning's small building is white, and there is a semicircular balcony on the second floor, and Zhang Sijia is sitting on the railing.

The background color of the photo is very plain, it looks like black and white, only Zhang Sijia is bright red, matching her teenage girl's face full of collagen, her whole body stands out as if she wants to rush out of the photo.

She is smiling for the camera.

The hair was tied into a high ponytail with a red headband, and the wind blew by, and the hanging red headband was blown up by the wind.

The photo is still, but anyone who looks at it seems to be able to feel that this girl is like a fragile butterfly, which may jump off at any time.

"She said she wanted to take a photo with the small building, and asked me to step back and take pictures of the whole building. I stepped back to the gate of the small courtyard. She was standing behind the railing at first, but suddenly climbed up And it freaked me out."

"But I didn't think about what she was going to do at the time. Although it was only on the second floor, because of the small villa, the floor height is very high, and she jumped from a higher railing. This is going to cause big trouble!"

"Fortunately, I like to grow flowers and plants. There is no pavement in the small courtyard. After she jumped down, she just sprained her feet."

"At that time, my whole body was scared to death. It was also this time that I knew that Scarlett was sick. At that time, few people went to see a psychiatrist. Mentioning depression was like a neurosis, but it is very common in foreign countries."

Hearing this, Shen Ke couldn't help but say, "You introduced her to a psychiatrist, who is it?"

Yu Yanning was taken aback, and blurted out a name, "Xu Qingru, the one you should know is our professor in the Department of Psychology of Nanjiang University. He is my good friend, and he has a good personality. Sijia watched him for a while, then adjusted coming."

Xu Qingru and Shen Ke did know that she had attended his courses.

Xu Qingru himself does not have a psychological clinic, and he does not usually see patients. He is engaged in theoretical research and devotes himself to teaching in universities.

"After Sijia got well, I married Renna. She also had a boyfriend later, so we didn't have much contact. We met later when she was injured when she went to Nanjiang Metropolis Daily for an internship."

"I heard Xu Qingru say that her depression had worsened, so I went to see her. At that time, her condition did not look very good, as if her faith had been shattered. When I went, her boyfriend was there, and I Put the flowers and fruit at the nurse's station and go."

Shen Ke listened carefully. This should be the revenge that Liu Yuanming suffered. Liu Yuanming's foot was seriously injured. Although he could continue to walk, he couldn't do any running and jumping movements, or walk for a long time.

Because of this accident, he can no longer be an investigative reporter.

"The next time I saw Scarlett was this time. She came to school to find me and told me she was getting married."

"Sijia said that she has put everything down, and her fiancé and his family are very good to her. She also said that her work is going well."

Yu Yanning put her finger on the photo under the street lamp, and said with a complicated expression, "This is a farewell, I didn't expect it to be photographed."

Yu Yanning spoke very frankly, it didn't look like a fake.

"You remember what happened to Zhang Sijia very clearly. You can tell when it happened just by looking at the photos."

Hearing Shen Ke's question, Yu Yanning was slightly startled, and he immediately understood what Shen Ke meant.

Somewhat annoyed, she finally said helplessly, "Because I felt guilty for her, especially after she passed away. If it wasn't for me, Scarlett wouldn't suffer from depression, and she wouldn't commit suicide in the end."

"Sometimes when I dream back at midnight, I often wonder at what point in time, I made a small change, will Scarlett not die. Scarlett is very special in my life, it is me A person who will never forget in a lifetime."

"After the news of her death came, I felt very painful. I was much older than her, and I was her teacher. I shouldn't have started so hastily... I was the one who killed her all her life."

"After I got married, we basically didn't see each other. During the time when the photo was taken, we only met once, so I remember it clearly."

Shen Ke nodded, Yu Yanning saw that she was doing business, and she didn't seem to be criticizing her, so her expression was slightly pale.

The timing of his love affair with Zhang Sijia is very delicate, and the timing of this photo is also very sensitive. He is very worried that whether it is him or Zhang Sijia, they will be viewed with colored glasses.

However, none of them are third parties to each other.

"Did Zhang Sijia tell you about her troubles at work? For example, she was investigating a case, or was coerced by others? Did she leave you anything during Zhang Sijia's death? "

Yu Yanning shook her head, "I didn't say anything. If I said something, there are some small jewelry in the iron box, which I gave her before. She gave it back to me when we met before she got married."

Yu Yanning thought for a while, her expression was a little hesitant...

"What can you say directly."

"Well, Zhang Sijia persuaded me about one thing. She said she felt that Liu Yuanming had been acting weird since the accident, and asked me to persuade him to see a psychiatrist. She didn't say how weird it was..."

An idea flashed in Shen Ke's mind, "Liu Yuanming is her teacher, why did she ask you to persuade her?"

"Because Liu Yuanming knows me. He is the uncle who lives next door to Renna. Renna is not very close to him, but we are very familiar with him. When Zhang Sijia went to Nanjiang Metropolis Daily for an internship in his senior year, I asked him to take her with him. "

"This is what Sijia learned later."

The journalism department of Nanjiang University graduates a lot every year. Liu Yuanming was already a well-known figure in the journalism circle at that time. People like him usually don’t take interns easily. Zhang Sijia, who has no social experience, can do in-depth Reports are rare.
