Xue Ling replied, "Teacher Ma has always been very nice to everyone; she couldn't have offended anyone..."
Fang Bo quickly asked, "Do you know if she has any friends?"
"I don't know..." Xue Ling answered. "I only know that Teacher Ma has a boyfriend..."
"A boyfriend?" Fang Bo asked eagerly. "Do you know who her boyfriend is?"
Xue Ling shook her head. "No... I've never seen her boyfriend..."
Fang Bo pressed on, "Do you know if she participates in any activities?"
"I don't know," Xue Ling replied. "Teacher Ma usually spends time alone..."
Fang Bo continued to inquire, "What about her hobbies? Does she have any?"
Xue Ling said, "Teacher Ma doesn't go out much..."
Fang Bo asked urgently, "Have you noticed any unusual behavior from her?"
Xue Ling replied impatiently, "I've already told you! Teacher Ma has always been normal! There's nothing wrong!"
Fang Bo had no choice but to give up on the questioning.
Suddenly, Xue Ling seemed to remember something. "Oh! I just recalled! After Teacher Ma resigned, she was harassed by a male student!"
Both Fang Bo and I were taken aback. "What did you say?"
Xue Ling nodded and said, "Yes! That male student would message and call Teacher Ma every day, and he often followed her around! Teacher Ma was very scared and reported it to the school several times."
However, that male classmate's mother always came to Teacher Ma to plead for leniency, asking her not to hold her son accountable.
Eventually, Teacher Ma resigned, and that male classmate never troubled her again.
Fang Bo and I exchanged a knowing smile.
It seemed that this male classmate must be the one who sent a love letter to Ma Zhaofang!
I asked Xue Ling, "Do you remember that male classmate's name?"
Xue Ling shook her head. "I don't remember."
I continued, "What about his appearance? Do you recall what he looked like?"
Xue Ling thought for a moment and replied, "He seemed to have a beard, and his hair was a bit curly."
I pressed on, "What about his build? Do you remember his physique?"
Xue Ling pondered again and said, "He seemed very tall and strong."
I asked further, "Do you recall his height?"
Xue Ling considered it and answered, "He was around one hundred eighty centimeters..."
I inquired again, "And what about his weight?"
Xue Ling thought for a moment before responding, "He was probably around seventy or eighty kilograms..."
With that information in mind, Fang Bo and I quickly returned to the police station.
We sat at the table, beginning to sort through the clues.
So far, we had identified three key pieces of evidence.
The first clue was a bracelet.
The bracelet belonged to Ma Zhaofang.
However, it was found on Xue Ling's wrist.
Could it be that Xue Ling is the murderer?
Fang Bo started investigating Xue Ling.
Yet, she showed no signs of guilt.
She had neither a motive nor an opportunity to commit the crime.
Could it be that our assumptions were wrong?
The second clue involved Sun Chen.
Sun Chen had been seen near the crime scene.
However, his behavior did not reveal any inconsistencies.
Could it be that our assumptions were wrong?
The third clue was a man in black.
The man in black had an ambiguous relationship with Ma Zhaofang.
However, the man in black never showed his face.
Could it be that our speculation was wrong?
The three of us sat at the table, beginning to discuss our next course of action.
Fang Bo suggested, "I think we should start with the bracelets! Xue Ling and Ma Zhaofang have no direct connection, but they both have identical bracelets! This indicates that there must be some kind of link between them!"
I nodded in agreement, "I believe Fang Bo is right! We should focus on the bracelets! There must be some connection between Xue Ling and Ma Zhaofang! We need to find out what that connection is as soon as possible!"
Captain Li also nodded in agreement, "I think Fang Bo has a point! There must be some connection between Xue Ling and Ma Zhaofang! We need to uncover that connection quickly!"
The three of us sat at the table, continuing to discuss our next course of action.
