There is a billiards room on the first floor, designated for dical staff use.
The billiards room is freely accessible, with no supervision.
Dean Shen had so free ti in the afternoon, so he went to the billiards room, took out a cue, and went up to the fourth floor.
Room 516 corresponds to a large consultation room below.
All dical staff, including Dean Shen, can access it through fingerprint recognition.
Shen Jingqi checked the usage of the consultation room in the system.
The room was not booked by anyone throughout the afternoon.
This ans that entering the consultation room, one can stretch out a billiard cue through the window to hook down the dance socks hanging on balcony 516.
Moreover, one could use the billiard cue to poke the surveillance cara towards the wall, take down the dance socks, and then poke the cara back to its original position.
Combining this with Dean Zhang’s notes and the tiline.
All clues are connecting!
After taking the dance socks, Dean Zhang returned to his room and replied to his own ssages.
In the few minutes before eting Dean Zhang, based on the trajectory of the notes, he might have put on the dance stockings and danced in the office.
He danced for about ten minutes before reluctantly taking off the dance socks and placing them in his desk drawer.
He savored it for about three minutes, adjusted his state, and then ssaged to let him in.
This is a hypothesis that needs verification.
He now needs to find the dance socks and return them to Liu Yiyi to calm her emotions.
Shen Jingqi turned and ca to Dean Zhang’s office.
He could vaguely see the edge of the notes.
Dean Zhang is still in the office!
The situation is urgent, and Shen Jingqi quickly stepped forward.
Bang bang bang!
"Dean Zhang, it’s Jingqi, I have an urgent matter to discuss with you, are you available?"
"Co in!"
Dean Zhang was resting with his eyes closed.
"Dean Zhang, I was originally hurrying to et my senior, but right after seeing you, the nurse said my patient Liu Yiyi had an emotional breakdown and wanted to harm herself, so I am a bit worried and would like to seek your help!"
"Matters like this must be taken seriously!" Dean Zhang’s voice was alert!
"Yes, it’s rather peculiar."
"The white dance socks Liu Yiyi hung on the balcony are missing!"
Shen Jingqi noticed Dean Zhang’s body twitch slightly, his eyes flickering.
This was an unconscious reaction.
"White dance socks?"
"Yes, those dance socks are beautiful; for Liu Yiyi, who has severe depression, they are a hope for achieving her dance dream. Losing them so suddenly, she couldn’t handle her emotions."
Shen Jingqi pretended to ponder:
"Those dance socks are indeed beautiful, crystal white silk stockings. Soone might find them attractive and use a pole to hook them down; they might even manipulate the cara to avoid being seen."
Dean Zhang’s breath seed tense.
Shen Jingqi pretended not to notice, shifting his gaze outdoors:
"However, it’s unlikely that soone took them."
Dean Zhang nodded, like a chicken pecking at rice.
"The wind was strong today, it’s likely that the dance socks blew away. But since they aren’t nearby, maybe they ended up in a room sowhere?"
Shen Jingqi pointed at the open window in the office.
"After entering the room, they might have landed on the table or fallen into a drawer."
"I also need to et my senior. If my senior gets upset for waiting too long, I don’t know what might happen."
Shen Jingqi looked at the drawer, displaying an anxious expression.
"The urgent thing now is to return the dance socks in the drawer to Liu Yiyi to quickly calm her emotions."
"In the drawer?"
"Yes, open it and see."
Dean Zhang opened the drawer.
A pair of white silk stockings lay in the empty space.
"They’re indeed here."
Dean Zhang seed a bit surprised.
"It’s all due to the wind! The wind was too strong today and has nothing to do with billiard cues or anything like that."
Shen Jingqi emphasized.
"Yes, yes."
Dean Zhang picked up the white silk stockings, suppressing the desire in his eyes, his hands trembling a bit:
"Quickly take them to the patient, tell her not to worry."
"Thank you, Dean Zhang! Both my senior and I are very grateful to you."
Shen Jingqi took the white dance socks and headed towards room 516.
"Yiyi, look, are these your dance socks?"
"Ah, finally found them."
Sun Jie hurriedly stood up.
"They were blown away by the strong wind."
"That’s good, I just knew it, this damn weather."
"Luckily, they blew near the window and were picked up by the dean."
"The dean is truly a good person, really need to thank him."
After Liu Yiyi was hospitalized, the dean also visited her a few tis, encouraging her for a speedy recovery.
"Thank you!"
Liu Yiyi held onto the dance socks.
Her voice was soft, and a glimr of belief appeared in her eyes.
"This child is too fragile, too sensitive. Just this little thing, she can’t get over it, hasn’t even had dinner."
Sun Jie’s loud voice began playing on repeat.
"Aunt Sun, I’m fine now, hurry and go have your al."
"Oh, it doesn’t matter if I eat or not, I’ll go get you sothing to eat, what would you like?"
"Anything is fine. Oh, noodles, maybe with so shredded at."
"Okay, I’m going then."
Shen Jingqi didn’t leave.
He saw Liu Yiyi continually looking at the dance socks, as if pondering sothing.
The crucial thing was the words above her head.
The information on "suicide plans and behavior" was still present.
Liu Yiyi’s suicidal thoughts remained strong.
The dance socks being lost and found didn’t seem to alleviate her emotions.
Unable to accept imperfection!
Could it be that because the dance socks were blown away by the wind, she felt they weren’t clean?
Indeed, if Dean Zhang had worn the dance socks, they would have been tainted by his feet.
However, Liu Yiyi didn’t know this.
After all, out of sight, out of mind!
"Yiyi, the dance socks were blown away and then found by soone else, do you think they might be unclean?"
Liu Yiyi lifted her eyes, with a hint of confusion in her gaze.
"Dr. Zhang, I don’t think they’re unclean. I’m very happy that the dance socks are back."
"I think it’s fate guiding and arranging this destiny, making more resolute."
A hint of determination and resolve flashed in Liu Yiyi’s eyes.
"Destiny?"
"It’s sothing I must do, sothing I’m supposed to do."
"Is it dancing?"
"Dancing will burn my life, and I will bloom because of it."
Liu Yiyi caressed the white dance socks, with a lancholic yet smiling gaze:
"They are the most beautiful dance socks, an enchantnt for every dancer."
"Together with the dance socks, we are one."
"To you, you and the dance socks are one, indispensable to each other."
Shen Jingqi echoed.
"The al is here, ti to eat!"
Sun Jie, carrying the plastic bag, skillfully set up the small table and laid out the food.
Seeing the food, Liu Yiyi seed to suddenly burst with energy, picked up the chopsticks, and started eating.
"Yes, eat more, build up strength, and you’ll be in a better mood."
Sun Jie bead, cheering Liu Yiyi on from the side.
Liu Yiyi quickly finished a bowl of noodles.
"Aunt Sun, is there more? I still want to eat."
"Yes, I got quite a bit. You eat more, I’ll eat the rest."
Sun Jie quickly ladled another bowl for Liu Yiyi.
"This kid has quite an appetite today. Usually, she can’t eat this much. She must be in a really good mood after getting her dance socks back."
Sun Jie muttered to Shen Jingqi.
Although it seed like a good sign to see, Liu Yiyi having such a sudden appetite still worried Shen Jingqi.
He recalled so of Liu Yiyi’s strange remarks.
And her outburst today ca to mind.
He sensed all these were sohow connected to sothing.
The dance socks.
The room didn’t have any hooks, nor did the bathroom have tools for hanging purposes.
Moreover, a sock of this length was usually allowed to prevent any mishap.
To be safe, he still needed to be cautious.
If he took away the dance socks now, it might destabilize Liu Yiyi’s emotions again.
Shen Jingqi called Nurse Sun outside.
"Nurse Sun, please keep an eye out tonight, especially on the dance socks she’s holding. Maybe pretend to be asleep but watch Yiyi closely. If anything happens, alert right away."
