Winter in the Northeast comes very early. When the first snow fell, a classmate saw two people embracing on the river behind the school. Like all couples in love, they missed each other deeply every day, had endless things to say, and their love grew deeper and deeper. As winter turns to spring, the two even make plans to get married. During summer vacation, Teacher Zhuge suddenly receives an unexpected phone call—it was Gillian calling from ***. Gillian was caught during a surprise hotel inspection for prostitution. She had no money to pay the fine, and *** had to notify the school. Helpless, Teacher Zhuge called Teacher Zhuge to bring Gil back from ***. Gillian, in tears, explained that she was short on money and struggling financially, unable to resist her roommate's instigation. She wanted to exchange her first night for 1,000 yuan. Teacher Zhuge looked ashen, said nothing, and quietly escorted Gillian back to the dormitory. That evening, the timid girl was watching porn in the dorm. It was already summer vacation, and most of the girls in the dorm had gone home. She thought no one would come to the dorm, maybe because it was hot. She took off all her clothes and watched the film while masturbating. Just as she was about to climax, the voices of Teacher Zhuge and Gillian came from the hallway. She heard Teacher Zhuge suppressing his anger and Ah Jiao's quiet sobbing. After the timid girl hurriedly turned off the power and realized she was still naked, she could hear the sound of the key opening the door. In a panic, she hid inside the cabinet. In the dormitory, Gillian A, heartbroken, said: Let's break up. Teacher Zhuge said coldly: You have no money, why buy stockings to wear? Gillian took off her stockings and cried: The stockings were made for me to wear, not bought by me. Teacher Zhuge was furious. Who was that person? Gillian covered her face and said: A client! In a moment of impulse, Enraged, Mr. Zhuge finally exploded. He strangled Gillian Chung with stockings. After calming down, to cover up the real image and avoid the blow, Mr. Zhuge disguised the scene and the body, creating a fake hanging of Gillian Chung in a fake case. All of this was witnessed by a timid girl hiding in a cabinet. Later, due to immense mental stress, she dropped out of school. ? Teacher Zhuge has never married, and the profile picture of Ah Jiao on QQ will never light up again. Su Mei used computer technology to hack Ah Jiao's QQmi?ma, after logging in, saw many messages from Teacher Zhuge. Over the past few years, he had been constantly repenting, talking to that forever dim QQ avatar. He still loved her, and every New Year's Eve gala, he would sing 'Snowman'. Su Mei said to Teacher Zhuge: We have re-investigated this case. A-Jiao's roommates at the time, including the girl hiding in the locker, were all found by the public security authorities in their registered places of residence. Do you know why A-Jiao mai?yin? Teacher Zhuge said: I don't know. Su Mei said: She wanted to buy you a birthday gift, she wanted to buy you a guitar. Teacher Zhuge: I don't understand, that wouldn't even cost a thousand yuan anyway. Su Mei said: A guitar costs about two hundred yuan, and A-Jiao also wanted to buy a mobile phone. You must know why she wanted to buy a phone, right? Teacher Zhuge thought for a moment, and tears streamed down his face... A-Jiao was a rural girl. When she returned home during the holidays, she couldn't access the Internet, and her home didn't have a telephone. During the winter holidays, she had to walk ten kilometers to the county Internet cafe every day to leave messages for Teacher Zhuge. So, when summer vacation came, she was determined to buy a mobile phone. For a girl in love, losing contact with her beloved person for the entire holiday was unbearable. The Deputy Mayor said to Teacher Zhuge: Stop beating around the bush, get to the point. The Limb Snowman case, how did you kill the four girls? Teacher Zhuge was still crying. After a while, he lifted his head and said in astonishment, I did not kill those four girls! Police investigation later revealed that on January 18 and January 19, the two days when the Limb Snowman case occurred, Teacher Zhuge had been attending the year-end training of the education system. Dozens of people could testify that Teacher Zhuge had no time to commit the crime and was not at the scene during the incident. At this point, the clues ran dry. The only suspect was the killer from another case. The case reached an impasse. Over the past few days, both the special task force and the local police were depressed. The school couldn't withstand the pressure. Except for Xiao Yao, the principal decided to let the students go home. The campus soon became empty, with only a few students preparing for postgraduate entrance exams staying at school. The Deputy Mayor suspected Xiao Yao was the killer. Xiao Yao could never explain what she did in those three minutes, aside from going to the bathroom, while sleepwalking that night. Xiao Yao's family lived in the city. This curious girl was not bothered by police control. She was even eager to participate in solving the case.For safety reasons, the police had her and Su Mei stay in the school's guesthouse. Xiao Yao was very envious of Su Mei and expressed that she also wanted to become a female **. Su Mei said that Xiao Yao was a gossipy little girl and would be more suitable as a junior reporter. Professor Liang said to Xiao Yao: You are very curious and good at analyzing things. The case of the girl who hanged herself was solved thanks to you. I would like to hear your opinion, as an outsider, on the case of the dismembered snowman. Xiao Yao said: If you only investigate within the school, what if that person's head, and even the murderer, are from outside the school? Professor Liang nodded and said: Makes sense, go on. Xiao Yao said: I know the two girls in the school; someone used a fake chao to buy their school uniforms. This is very strange. Bao Zhan also came over and asked with interest: How is it strange? Xiao Yao said: We are all university students now, who still wears school uniforms? And someone is buying school uniforms, it's odd. The special task force visited the students at the school. Some students did not go home during the vacation because of graduate exams or part-time jobs. One student said: Really, I never wore the university uniform. After it was issued in my freshman year, I just threw it away. Another student said: Sorry, I don't recognize our school uniform. Do we even have a school uniform? This clue from Xiao Yao caught the attention of the special task force, and the investigation began to shift outside the school. The police conducted a detailed investigation of four external individuals who were closely associated with the murdered girls. The bar singer did not provide valuable clues, and the wealthy businessman who supported Mei Zi claimed that his relationship with Mei Zi was innocent. The owner of a restaurant near the school admitted to having an ambiguous relationship with Xue'er. The owner provided a very important clue—on the night of January 18, after nine o'clock, Xue'er went to the restaurant and asked the owner to rent her an apartment off-campus. After the owner agreed, Xue'er returned to the school. Professor Liang called an emergency meeting, and he said at the meeting: The case is not far from being solved. What exactly happened that night that made Xue'er unwilling to stay in the dormitory and want to move outside? There must be something hidden in this. Su Mei said: If it was an external person who entered the school to commit the crime, we only need to focus on checking the surveillance footage for outsiders entering the campus that night, and we can find the murderer. Bao Zhan said: Let me give a hint, this murderer might be wearing a school uniform.The deputy mayor said: This murder case, somehow I feel it doesn't seem premeditated at all. The killer acted without regard for the consequences, didn't even plan an escape route in advance, and even entered the school wearing a school uniform to commit the crime. These two points are really contradictory.
Professor Liang said: Besides the suspicious issue of purchasing a school uniform, there is another matter we should pay attention to. We came from the provincial city by train to the neighboring city, and then arrived here. Leilei's home is also in the provincial city, and she drives to school, so she definitely didn't drive from home to school. Then, where is her car parked?
The principal said: Forensic experts believe the wound on the snowman's skull was caused by external pulling. Could it have been a car accident?
Bao Zhan said: In total, two school uniforms were bought. The person who bought the school uniform is a boy, and the snowman's skull is female; it just so happens to be two people.
Hua Long said: I agree with the deputy mayor's point. If it was the killer, why would he buy the school uniform in advance? Was it for committing the crime or for some other purpose?
While everyone was having a heated discussion about the case, Xiaoyao suddenly came in. Everyone in the conference room ceased speaking, not understanding why she barged in.
Xiaoyao, pale-faced and nervous, said: I know who bought the school uniform. I have seen him.
The principal said: You aren't sleepwalking, are you?
Xiaoyao, shaking with fear, said: I remembered something. A few days ago, it was snowing heavily, and I saw a snowman at the school gate. At that time, there were people gathered around it, and the snowman turned out to be alive. He was kneeling on the ground, wearing a school uniform, covered in a thick layer of snow.
Professor Liang and Bao Zhan both felt their hearts race, the deputy mayor anxiously stood up, and Su Mei's mind flashed rapidly with images from the surveillance footage: luxury cars parked at the school gate, flower vendors, elderly people directing traffic voluntarily, beggars kneeling and begging...
Everyone quietly waited for Xiaoyao to continue.
Xiaoyao said: He is a young beggar posing as a student! Ice and Snow Rose?
In the three northeastern provinces, it is generally snowing. Heilongjiang is snowing; Jilin and Liaoning are snowing. Snow falls on the frozen river, on the dark plains, in the desolate parks, on the trees atop Changbai Mountain. Snow drifts down abundantly, drifting over the vast city squares, softly falling into every corner of the Daxinganling forest, heavily piling on grave markers, falling into the birch forests of the countryside, landing on top of village fences, on withered wild grass, on the shoulders of two beggars.
