Chapter 349
It was not yet time for class and the classroom was bustling with people. The students were either gathered together chatting or sitting in their seats doing their homework. No one paid any attention to them.
Hu Xiaodie was holding a letter in her hand, her eyes wide open, her face full of uncontrollable excitement and gossip.
After reading the letter, she leaned close to Su Miao's ear and said excitedly, "Wow, Su Miao, you have a suitor! Can you guess who it is?"
Su Miao frowned slightly, shook her head gently, and said calmly: "I can't guess. I don't know many people, and I don't usually have much contact with boys. I can only call out the names of those few."
Hu Xiaodie shook the letter in her hand and asked, "So...are you planning to ignore him? What if he suddenly comes to you and confesses his love one day?"
Su Miao curled her lips, crossed her arms over her chest, and said nonchalantly, "If he really comes, let my dad and my brother catch him. Have you forgotten that I'm only 14 years old?"
Hu Xiaodie slapped her head, as if she had suddenly remembered something, and said, "Oh! I really forgot that you are three years younger than us. It's mainly because you are too tall, taller than most of the girls in the class.
I think this person may not know how young you are, and he fell in love with you because you are pretty and have good grades. Why not just throw this letter away, out of sight, out of mind. "
Su Miao took the letter and examined it carefully, a thoughtful look on his face. "I really can't throw it away. Don't you think this is very strange? Who would write a love letter without signing their name? Without even a name, what's the point of writing this love letter? The more I think about it, the more it seems like a prank."
Hu Xiaodie immediately felt that Su Miao's words made sense. Her eyes widened, and she lowered her voice and said, "Now that you mention it, it does seem a bit like that. Then what was his purpose? He gave me an apple for free, ah! Poisoned! Snow White's wicked stepmother!"
As she spoke, she shuddered exaggeratedly.
Su Miao helplessly held his forehead, saying with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Your imagination is rather overdeveloped. Did you hear Apple crying out in injustice?"
"Why is that? Tell us your guess quickly, and let's solve the case together. Wait a minute, I'll call Jia Jia over!"
Su Miao looked at Hu Xiaodie's hurried back and complained silently in his heart:... Am I the spice of your boring life?
The three girls gathered together and discussed in a low voice.
Meng Jiajia said, "Could it be from our class? Maybe it's a boy who has a crush on Su Miao and is too embarrassed to confess in person, so he uses this method."
Su Miao nodded slightly, then shook his head: "That's possible, but I've been observing for two days and no one has shown any special behavior."
Hu Xiaodie slapped her thigh, looking confident, and said confidently, "That's from another class. If it was from our class, they would know that Su Miao is young. I think even if they like her, they wouldn't write such a straightforward confession letter. They should at least be more tactful."
"But if he is not from this class, then how did he put the letter in my drawer?" Su Miao asked.
Because the students' books and stationery are kept in the classroom, the door will be locked when there is no one in the classroom.
There are three keys in total, one is in the hands of the homeroom teacher, one is kept by the class monitor, and the other is in the hands of the boarding student who arrives at the classroom first every day.
They used a very traditional small padlock. After opening it, they just hung it casually on the door. When the last student left the classroom, they just snapped it on and pressed it. With a "click", the door was locked.
They planned to ask who locked the door these days and whether they saw people from other classes entering and leaving the classroom.
At this moment, Lin Guodong, who had been listening silently nearby, suddenly said, "Don't ask. I locked it. And I'm sure these two letters were not put in when I was there, otherwise I would have seen them."
"Are you the last one to leave these days?"
Lin Guodong nodded and explained, "It's not just these few days. For the past half month, I've always been the last to leave. My brothers and I have already applied to live on campus. To save time, every day after school, my two brothers would take turns queuing up for food and hot water. I didn't have to queue, so I was always the last to leave."
A few people went to ask the student who came first every day. Her seat was very close to Su Miao's, so it was certain that no one had touched Su Miao's drawer after she came until the morning reading began.
During morning reading, Su Miao must have been in his seat long ago. In this case, there is a high probability that the person sneaked in and put the letter there after the classroom door was locked.
From that day on, the classmates who knew about this became extremely vigilant. Whenever someone passed by Su Miao, they couldn't help but take a few more glances, as if the mysterious pursuer would appear at any time.
However, the love letter did not appear for three consecutive days.
It wasn't until Saturday morning that Su Miao walked to his seat as usual. Just as he was about to sit down, he found another letter in the drawer, and next to it was a... bun.
Su Miao poked the cold bun with a puzzled look on his face, and opened the envelope. The letter said that seeing that she was so thin, she must not like to eat breakfast, so he bought buns for her, hoping that she could eat on time.
Hu Xiaodie perked up instantly when she saw it: "Su Miao, this is great. It's confirmed that this person is not from our class. Who in our class doesn't know that you love to eat?"
Su Miao, who was about to say something, stopped immediately after hearing this and asked with a puzzled look on her face, "My classmates... all know that I love to eat?"
Hu Xiaodie said with a smile: "Of course, even when the training was so intense, you ate three meals a day without missing a single one, and brought a lot of delicious snacks from home, such as braised beef with soy sauce and small biscuits, which made everyone greedy.
You usually say you've already had breakfast at home, but every day you bring apples, braised eggs, that black thing you say is a secret recipe passed down from your ancestors, ginger candy, and all sorts of other things to eat. I've eaten a lot of them myself."
After hearing this, Su Miao looked around speechlessly. Meng Jiajia, Lin Guodong, and Lin Wang also nodded silently. These were the only few people who knew the truth at the moment and were particularly keen to help Su Miao solve the case.
She shrugged helplessly: "Well, is this a personal characteristic? At least it can provide us with a solution to solve the case."
That bun looked like an ordinary bun, nothing special, and didn't seem to provide any clues.
So they could only shift their attention to the letters.
Su Miao placed the three letters on the desk and unfolded them. It was certain that the handwriting of the three letters was the same.
