Chapter 10
Whether Teacher Feng is the murderer or not, what does it have to do with driving?
The valley on the northern slope where the bodies were buried was also in Mingzhu Mountain, two kilometers away from the Zangmo base, but that was the straight-line distance.
Mingzhu Mountain is adjacent to the city and has beautiful scenery. It is a scenic spot that does not charge admission, so a winding mountain road was built in the mountain.
The base is on the south side of the mountain, and the valley at the northern foot is on the north side. It is actually five kilometers long and winding.
These five kilometers are winding and dangerous. There are no street lights at night and visibility is extremely poor. The road surface is unpaved and full of gravel. If you drive, you can't drive fast. It takes nearly an hour to go back and forth.
But Teacher Feng can't drive.
Yu Aiai testified that Qiu Yue left the dormitory in the middle of the night, which is around midnight.
If Teacher Feng killed Qiu Yue and took the body to the valley on the northern slope for burial, he would have to walk there without a car.
When they went there, they might have to carry the body up and down hills and over mountains and dig a pit to bury it.
It would be even more impossible to take a shortcut over the mountains instead of the highway. The mountains are so densely forested that you would get lost even during the day, let alone at night, when it would be even more difficult to navigate than on the highway.
Although Qiu Yue was very thin, weighing only 80 kilograms, carrying her body along a five-kilometer mountain road, burying the body, and then returning to the base before dawn was almost the limit of the human body. I'm afraid only a special forces soldier could do it.
Although Teacher Feng is in good physical condition, he is not strong enough to do that.
Of course there are other possibilities, such as having an accomplice who can drive.
But that requires more evidence.
Judging from the current situation, Mr. Feng’s suspicion level is inevitably reduced because he cannot drive.
If Chen He could think of this detail, the police would naturally think of it too. For example, the police officer Chang Ting who came today looked reckless, but he was actually very smart.
Chen He finally explained the reasoning to Yu Aiai after some effort. Seeing Yu Aiai's expression of "finally getting it," Chen He leaned back on the mat, feeling somewhat exhausted. Explaining problems to a fool was exhausting.
Yu Aiai said bitterly, "Everyone knows what Prisoner Feng is like. She's just a perverted old woman! If she didn't do it, who else could it be?"
"What kind of person is Teacher Feng..." Chen He recalled Teacher Feng's appearance.
Most of the students in the base don't like Teacher Feng.
Feng Xumei is a middle-aged woman in her fifties. She used to work as a dormitory manager at a high school. She was hired by Principal Zhu to be a life teacher at the base. In fact, she is still a dormitory manager.
Feng Xumei had a bad temper, was very strict, and had a very rigid image. She always wore dull, old-fashioned clothes like a khaki top and black trousers. She kept her hair short and wore black-framed glasses year after year.
The male and female dormitories on the third floor are divided into sections, and the doors are closed and locked at designated times.
Boys who dared to peek into the girls' area would be scolded, and those who dared to sneak in would be beaten.
Although Teacher Feng is a woman, she is strong and skilled, and no boy can beat her.
Girls also don't like her because she always cuts off the internet and electricity on time, and conducts surprise inspections from time to time, confiscating any high-power electrical appliances she finds.
Some girls would be ridiculed and criticized by her if they put on heavier makeup.
Anyone who returns to the dormitory late will be punished and the criticism will be written on the blackboard in the corridor the next day.
If anyone wants to sneak out for a date, forget it. Even if you kneel down in front of her inside the iron gate, it will be impossible to open it.
He never smiles at anyone and is always cursing.
So the students said behind her back that she was in menopause and was a pervert, and gave her a nickname, Feng Laotou.
Chen He was also angry with her after a hair dryer was confiscated from her.
But by chance one day, I saw Teacher Feng mending a pair of boys' pants.
While mending, he cursed himself: "You bastard, you're climbing over walls and houses. You didn't even know you tore your pants and exposed your butt..."
Also, there is always a thermos of ginger and sugar water in the cafeteria during dinner time, which is very popular among girls. Chen He, who is prone to dysmenorrhea, benefits greatly from it.
The girls praised the chef for being so thoughtful and considerate despite being a man, and said he was really kind and thoughtful.
Later I found out that it was Teacher Feng who asked the canteen chef to make it.
Chen He understood then that one shouldn't be too one-sided in judging people. Students coming to this foreign land to study, if they weren't strictly disciplined, would be a real problem if problems arose.
Teacher Feng is strict, even if he goes too far, his starting point is always for the students' good.
It wasn't like Yu Aiai said, that all her classmates thought she was a perverted old woman. Not everyone was blind.
But in Ai Ai's mouth, the only word left was "pervert".
This is understandable. Yu Aiai and several other members of the disciplinary team never got along with Teacher Feng.
Logically speaking, the functions of the disciplinary group and the dormitory management should be the same, both of which are to manage student discipline.
Perhaps it was precisely because of this unity that the power conflict arose. In a microcosm of the base, even the smallest power would be magnified.
The disciplinary team had argued with Teacher Feng more than once, so inevitably there was some resentment, so naturally they couldn't say anything nice.
Even after the incident, this group of people fanned the flames and smeared Teacher Feng.
Although the police did not reach a conclusion, public opinion intensified at the time, and Teacher Feng's reputation was ruined after his death, which was largely due to the efforts of Yu Aiai and others.
After Qiu Yue disappeared, her parents quarreled for a long time.
First, they went to Principal Zhu's house to cause trouble, but he lived in an upscale residential complex and they couldn't get in. They could only make trouble at the gate, where they were driven away by security. In the end, they didn't even see Principal Zhu and got nothing. So they turned their attention to Teacher Feng's family.
Teacher Feng's home is in an ordinary residential area, which is convenient and has a good effect.
They hung banners in front of Teacher Feng's house, poured paint on the apartment building, and blocked the door to prevent Teacher Feng's granddaughter from going to school.
Teacher Feng's family had to spend money to avoid disaster and some money was extorted from them.
But they still refused to give up. Finally, the whole family had no choice but to move away...
"Chen He!" Yu Aiai's angry voice brought Chen He back from his trance.
Yu Aiai pouted her lips, her high heels stomping under the table. "Comics are so popular now. If my former classmates see them, they'll know Yu Er is me. Where will I put my face? If you still consider me a friend, just change the comics."
"Oh, this is not very convenient." Chen He changed his sitting position and crossed his fingers arrogantly.
