Under great academic pressure, a high school student at a famous school in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, killed his mother at home on February 7, Legal Daily reported.

据《法制日报》报道，河南省郑州市某高中名校，一名学生因学习压力大，于2月7日在家中亲手杀死了自己的母亲。

A new term had just started and the student and his mother had an argument about his learning state. Then the boy said: "Mom, I have prepared something for you. Lower your head and close your eyes."

新学期伊始，母子俩因学习状态发生争执。之后，男生说：妈，我给你准备了一样东西，你把头低下，把眼睛闭上。

His mother did so, and he took the prepared dumbbell to pound his mother's head. After smashing two times, he cut the mother's throat with a paper knife. Then he tied his mother's neck using a shoelace and knotted it. He went to school after his mother was confirmed dead, with a quilt covering her body.

他的母亲照做后，他举起准备好的哑铃砸向母亲，砸过两下，又用裁纸刀在母亲喉咙割了两下，还用鞋带缠上母亲的脖子并打了结。确定死亡后，他用被子把母亲的尸体盖住，然后去上学。

Being asked by the investigators whether he regretted killing his mother, he casually replied: "I do not regret it. Through doing so I longer need to learn under so much pressure."

办案人员问其是否后悔杀死母亲时，他随口答道：不后悔。我可以不用学习了，不用压力那么大了。
