What does it mean to get a perfect score on the college entrance exam but then go missing?

Silence fell over the scene.

no doubt.

Yang Jinghua's words were loaded with hidden meaning.

Those present were all seasoned veterans who had been immersed in the officialdom for many years.

You could tell what he meant.

The suburban buses only go to the town and then to the deep mountains and forests.

There's no point in Qin Ze going to Yanghuai Town.

Then he has no choice but to go to the deep mountains and forests.

Lin Zheng was somewhat reluctant to believe this deduction: "Why would he go to the deep mountains and forests for no reason?"

Yang Jinghua's expression was grave: "But the surveillance footage cuts off here at the suburban car station, and there's a large river in Yanghuai Town..."

"You mean he committed suicide?"

Lin Zheng got a little agitated, and it looked like they were about to argue.

"How could a student who just got a perfect score possibly commit suicide?!"

Yang Jinghua was also unwilling to make similar inferences.

But he was a bureau chief with a background in criminal investigation.

His greatest strength lies in using clues to tell a story.

"Director Lin, please don't worry, we don't want to analyze it in that direction either."

"However... the current situation is not optimistic."

Nie Du looked at Yang Jinghua with a gloomy expression: "How is it not optimistic?"

Yang Jinghua pulled out a whiteboard from the corner of the office and began his responsible analysis.

"On the timeline, we have already traced back to before the college entrance examination."

"During that time, Qin Ze got into fights with his classmates at school."

According to Teacher Wang, a student surnamed Ye had an argument with Qin Ze.

That's all for now.

Wang Huiju, who was standing to the side, stepped forward and stated the facts truthfully.

"During that break between classes, Ye Zihan and Qin Ze got into an argument over some trivial matters."

"Ye Zihan has no self-control; she insulted Qin Ze, saying he was born but not raised."

"Qin Ze slapped Ye Zihan, and was then pulled away by his classmates."

Upon hearing this, Nie Du clicked his tongue.

This guy surnamed Ye is no good either, using the fact that Qin Ze's parents are both dead to hurl insults at him.

But to put it bluntly, this is nothing more than a quarrel between classmates.

They're just kids, they can't keep their mouths shut.

Nie Zhenhuan didn't understand why Yang Jinghua was bringing this up so far.

"What? You mean this argument is related to Qin Ze's disappearance?"

Yang Jinghua explained, "The point is not the argument itself, but what happened afterward."

At this moment, Jiang Xingguo stepped forward and began to apologize.

"Commander Nie! I haven't done my job properly, please dismiss me!"

Nie Zhenhuan was stunned.

???

"What did you do?"

Jiang Xingguo said with great distress.

"The school dealt with the matter immediately after the fight occurred."

"My original intention was that Ye Zihan was in the wrong first, and Qin Ze was also wrong to take action."

"Since it's during the college entrance exam period, I'd like to downplay the incident and have both sides apologize to each other."

Nie Zhenhuan nodded and said, "There's nothing wrong with doing it this way."

"The key issue is Ye Zihan's side; his parents are relentless in their demands."

"They insist that I punish Qin Ze."

"In the end, I had no choice but to punish Qin Ze separately, giving him a demerit and requiring him to apologize publicly at the graduation ceremony after the college entrance examination..."

Upon hearing this,

Nie Zhenhuan was angry, but also somewhat confused.

Both sides were clearly at fault.

Even from a moral standpoint, Ye Zihan's fault is greater.

After all, he crossed the line of morality by using Qin Ze's tragic background to attack others.

Just like that.

How can it be judged that Qin Ze apologized unilaterally?

"Principal Jiang, have you lost all sense of right and wrong?"

Nie Zhenhuan gritted his teeth and said.

"If you don't make that guy surnamed Ye apologize, I think you've handled the situation poorly."

"You're even making Qin Ze apologize to someone?"

Jiang Xingguo slapped himself: "Ye Zihan's parents keep bringing up next year's funding. I wasn't firm enough in my stance, so I went against my conscience."

"Funding?"

Nie Zhenhuan grasped the key point.

"Ye Zihan's parents...?"

Before he could even ask the question...

Yang Jinghua, who was standing to the side, stated the facts truthfully.

"Ye Zihan's father is named Ye Jun, and he works in the education department of Lincheng City."

!!!

Nie Zhenhua's face instantly turned from white to black.

No wonder!

No wonder the school is taking sides.

So someone is using their authority to make a point.

Suppressing his anger.

Nie Du looked at Yang Jinghua again.

He has been able to keep up with Yang Jinghua's train of thought.

"So you think this injustice could very well be the trigger?"

Yang Jinghua nodded.

Write the mind map on the whiteboard again.

"Qin must feel wronged after being verbally abused by Ye Zihan and then subjected to unfair treatment by the school."

"The college entrance exam will be right after that."

"A student of Qin Ze's caliber definitely knows he can get a high score."

"But getting high scores means going to university, which means spending money."

"As far as we know, he is also carrying nearly 100,000 yuan in debt left by his parents."

"These are all enormous pressures for him."

"So much so that after the college entrance examination, he posted a message on his WeChat Moments asking for money."

Yang Jinghua showed the screenshot on his phone to Nie Du.

Nie Zhenhuan looked at the somewhat strange loan request and felt a mix of emotions.

If they hadn't been forced into a desperate situation...

Who would lend money like that?

Yang Jinghua continued, "The unfair treatment I suffered before, coupled with my dire economic situation..."

"This is unbearable pain for an eighteen-year-old boy."

"Then he canceled the lease, sold the phone, and got on the bus heading into the deep mountains and forests."

"For more than ten days after that, there was no news."

"There were no cameras that captured him, and there were no records of his ID card being used."

"Therefore, I have to speculate that Qin may have committed suicide on the day she boarded the train."

……

……

silence.

The office was as quiet as if a vacuum had been drawn out.

No one was even breathing.

Everyone felt their throats tighten and their minds go blank.

A feeling of suffocation arises spontaneously.

A prodigy who scored full marks.

They were criticized for having children but no one to care for them, and then the school treated them unfairly because of its authority.

He was burdened by a debt of 100,000 yuan and the upcoming expenses of university.

Even an adult would probably be unable to bear such a heavy burden.

Not to mention high school students whose minds are not yet fully developed.

The scariest thing is...

In modern society, Qin Ze was able to disappear for as long as ten days.

He didn't use his ID card, and there were no security cameras recording him...

Deep down, no one wanted to believe that Yang Jinghua's analysis was correct.

But they couldn't overcome their rational thinking.

If Qin Ze hadn't taken his own life, where else could he have gone?

Is there still a place for him in this world?

After nearly a minute of silence.

Nie Zhenhuan walked to his desk and picked up the phone expressionlessly.

"Hello, connect me to the disciplinary committee."

"Starting today, a thorough investigation will be conducted on all cadres below the level of the Provincial Poverty Alleviation Office. Those found to have problems will be dealt with to the fullest extent of the law, while those not found to have problems will receive a major demerit."

"Also, make a note of the name Ye Jun and set up a special task force to handle this matter."

There was some hesitation on the other end of the phone.

"Governor Nie, what exactly is the matter? Isn't this making too much of a fuss?"

Nie Zhenhuan chuckled in exasperation: "If Qin Ze were really in trouble, that would be a real commotion!"

He finished speaking.

Nie Du's sharp gaze fell on Li Fuping, his eyes filled with a thousand knives.

That's why the title of provincial governor puts me under pressure.

If I were just an ordinary citizen, I would storm into the poverty alleviation office and beat anyone I saw.

If even one person is panting, it means my fists weren't hard enough.
