The man, surnamed Shen, rented the flat near Huaiyin High School in Huaian, Jiangsu province in early July, the Jiangnan Metropolis News reported.

His family is set to move there so that it will be convenient for his son to attend school.

When Shen and his wife were cleaning the house, they found a small and shabby school desk, one side of which carried the Chinese characters “Qing” and “Zhong” and the serial number 246.

That mark led Shen to believe that the desk was the one he used at Qingjiang Middle School in 1992.
