What does the highlighted portion of this handwritten Kanji say?

知恵袋で***いてるし…

I tried searching Google, hoping it's a phrase that might come up more often,
but none of the Kanji that came up looked even remotely like the one written
here.

Thank you!




It says 聞いてるし.

is 略字 (the handwritten simplified/abbreviated kanji) of 聞.

Other kanji with 門, such as 問、間、開、閉 etc., can also be simplified the same way:
