My girlfriend died in the past

Chapter 111: Re-entering the Secret Chamber
Zhuang Xiao took out his cell phone and took a look.

现在是2024年9月5日下午14点17分。

At this moment, he was sitting in the passenger seat next to Dong Zeyu, who was wearing a police uniform, while Shu Die was sitting in the back seat.

Looking through the car window at the gate of Dongfang No. 1 Middle School across the street, Zhuang Xiao turned around and asked, "Mr. Xiao Shu, are you really going too?"

Isn't she called "Xiao Die" anymore? Shu Die's face was still cold, and she said calmly: "This matter seems to be related to me, so I have to go and see it."

"Okay." Zhuang Xiao didn't refuse.

There is no danger now, and he has let it go, without even asking to inform Shu Die's father.

Moreover, Uncle Shu had asked him not to tell anyone about the time travel, and now he had told Dong Zeyu and Shu Die.

He didn't even consider whether they would believe it.

Because he will "go back in time" again tonight, none of that matters anymore.

The top priority now is to investigate some "established facts" to help him reverse those events after returning to the past.

"Let's go then."

Zhuang Xiao opened the car door and got out, and Dong Zeyu and Shu Die followed immediately.

When they arrived at the school gate, Dong Zeyu, wearing a police uniform, showed his police officer ID. The security guard at the gate immediately let them in and told them where the administrative director's office was. He also contacted the administrative director.

After a while, a middle-aged man with a big belly came out jogging to greet the three people.

He saw Dong Zeyu wearing a police uniform, while the two people behind him were in plain clothes.

But he didn't think too much about it and just thought that the students' parents called the police. The two parents looked a little young.

"Hello, hello, I am the administrative director of our school, my last name is Liu."

The pot-bellied Director Liu took the initiative to shake hands with Dong Zeyu and asked, "Which student in our school has committed a crime?"

One type of them is from the provincial key high school. Although there are not many of them, those garbage students still exist.

And maybe it was some trouble he caused outside.

This is what they worry about the most. Now Director Liu can only pray in his heart that no one will be killed.

“It has nothing to do with the students.”

When he was in a place where there were outsiders, Dong Zeyu became more majestic and serious.

"We are here to investigate Xu Guoping's case."

Director Liu was shocked. "But he left our school a long time ago."

He had also heard news about Xu Guoping after dinner, and even people in the office occasionally talked about it.

Xu Guoping made a lot of money after he resigned, but recently I heard that the medicine he developed seemed to have a lot of problems. However, the hot searches on the Internet have been suppressed so it’s still unclear.

Anyway, most of his old colleagues were gloating over his misfortune.

There's nothing we can do. You're our old colleague, and everyone is happy for you if you're doing well.

But aren't you having it a little too good?
In short, there was no need for Dong Zeyu to explain it too clearly, as Director Liu had already imagined a big drama in his mind.

Then of course he would not stop the police from investigating the case.

"If there is anything you need help with, comrade, you can just tell me."

Dong Zeyu nodded. "Well, we found out that Xu Guoping had been the director of the logistics department at No. 1 Middle School for many years. Could you please take us to the logistics office?"

"Okay, please follow me!" Director Liu immediately led the three people to the logistics office on the first floor of the administrative building.

Director Liu knocked on the door, and a young-looking male teacher opened the door. When he saw Dong Zeyu standing behind Director Liu in a police uniform, he was stunned for a moment, then asked cautiously, "Director Liu, what happened?"

"They have something to investigate, we just need to cooperate." Director Liu stepped aside, "Comrades, please."

Since it’s not about the students, these two people are probably plainclothes police officers and not the students’ parents.

He just said, how could there be such young parents of students.

This is a high school, not a kindergarten or elementary school.

The young logistics teacher looked confused, but still cooperated and stood aside.

Dong Zeyu stepped forward and asked, "What is this teacher's name?"

The young man shrank his neck and said, "My last name is Tian." "Okay, Mr. Tian, how long have you worked in the logistics department?"

Teacher Tian didn’t think twice and said, “It’s been more than a year. I just graduated from graduate school and got here. It’s been less than a year since I was hired as a full-time employee.”

It seems that there is no clue to be found from this person.

Dong Zeyu turned around to ask Zhuang Xiao, but saw Zhuang Xiao staring at the metal cabinet on the wall next to the corridor.

Dong Zeyu pointed at the cabinet and asked, "When was that cabinet built?"

Teacher Tian recalled, "It seems like a long time ago. When I came here, this cabinet was already there. It was very heavy and could not be moved at all. It was like it had taken root in the ground."

Director Liu, who had been standing by, replied, "It should be the cabinet that was bought when the whole school was renovated last time. It's almost 20 years old."

There must be something wrong with this cabinet!

Dong Zeyu had no evidence, but he chose to believe Zhuang Xiao.

Zhuang Xiao turned a deaf ear to their words.

He simply lay down without paying attention to the dust on the ground, then opened the glass door of the cabinet, took out all the neatly arranged documents and folders on the bottom shelf and stacked them aside, then reached in to grab something.

Director Liu asked curiously, "Comrade, is there something in that cabinet?"

He turned around and looked at Teacher Tian inquiringly.

Teacher Tian shook his head and explained, "The documents down there are all old school history documents from when the school was founded. Normally, no one would touch them."

"shush"

Dong Zeyu glared at them and told them to be quiet.

The two men shut up immediately.

The four of them just watched quietly as Zhuang Xiao, who was lying on the ground, fiddled with something on the bottom shelf of the cabinet.

After about six or seven minutes, they suddenly heard a "click" sound as if some mechanical buckles were snapping together, followed by a rumbling sound and the sound of gears turning.

Then they saw Zhuang Xiao standing up, and at the same time, the metal cabinet that seemed to have taken root in the ground was moving slowly outwards.

The four of them widened their eyes. Dong Zeyu's small green eyes were almost bigger than coins. "What's going on?! Are we filming a movie?!"

He immediately turned around to look at Director Liu and Teacher Tian.

The two of them were even more confused. Teacher Tian's face turned red with excitement, and he was muttering strange words like "Conan" and "Kindaichi".

Director Liu muttered to himself, "I have been teaching for decades, and I didn't realize there is such a secret in the school."

Who would have thought of this? This isn't Hogwarts, and there's a secret room?

There can't be a snake monster in there, right?

Dong Zeyu suddenly remembered what he had said in Zhuang Xiao's rental house before, and was shocked, "Is her body in there?"

Because there were outsiders present, he didn't directly say the name of Gu Shiyue.

"You have to go down and take a look to find out."

Zhuang Xiao brushed the dust off his hands, then took the lead and climbed down the ladder.

After going down, it was pitch black, unlike "last time" when there was light from the refrigerator and incandescent lamps.

Zhuang Xiao fumbled around on the wall and found a switch, but there was no response when he pressed it.

Then a beam of light came down from above. Zhuang Xiao turned around and saw Dong Zeyu putting the flashlight in his hand.

It must be said that Grand Tutor Dong is a thoughtful person.

Zhuang Xiao took the flashlight and scanned the surroundings, then narrowed his eyes.

The table and refrigerator were still there, but there were no drafts on the table and the refrigerator was empty.

Considering that the electricity is out, Xu Guoping probably hasn't been here for a long time, and this place may even have been abandoned.

But the most important thing is that there was no body next to the refrigerator.

　Some readers said that the latter part (1/3) affects the viewing experience and makes people feel that the event is not over.

　　Actually, I just wanted to say that a few chapters were updated today, but what he said makes a lot of sense!

　　Wangchuan, I just listened to your advice! So I won’t add it later~~
