It is a very dilapidated old house, located in the area of the old town that is about to be demolished, and the yellow, unneatly built bricks can be clearly seen on the painted walls, and the corners are covered with moss and gray or black unknown dirt.

Residents in the neighborhood have already moved out in the early years, and the government has given them enough subsidies to buy a new big house, and no one wants to continue to live in this dilapidated bungalow.

In addition, the old city is very remote from the central city, the area is not prosperous, not to mention the sparse population, there are always individual lawbreakers, theft and robbery and other incidents emerge in an endless stream, gradually, this area has become more desolate.

After the buildings were empty, some homeless people or homeless beggars began to spend the night in this barren old city, because they were all old houses, and the doors or windows were all simple wooden doors and windows, which were dilapidated and loose, and the locks were the same as no locks, and they could be broken lightly.

So while the old city has not yet been demolished, many wanderers and beggars are hanging around.

However, there are still people living in the Old Town, such as the house at 108 East Street, where a man lives.

If the residents around 108 East Street hadn't moved out, the neighbors would have known the man...... He was the child of the widow surnamed Zhang, and he was mentally retarded and disabled.

The kid doesn't seem to have a name, maybe he is, but everyone else calls him a fool.

The fool is said to have had some brain problems since he was a child.,Never laugh or cry.,Rarely speak.,It's a boy who looks very weird in the eyes of other friends.。

His academic performance is not good, it is said that every exam is a blank paper, plus he never speaks, and his attitude towards people is extremely indifferent, gradually, no one in the class wants to play with him at all, and the school teacher talks to Widow Zhang several times, but they are helpless against this child.

Widow Zhang's family is very poor, and Widow Zhang herself is just a middle-aged woman sweeping the floor and washing dishes in a restaurant, her husband seems to have died of illness, and after her husband, she seems to have nothing.

He had no relatives or friends, and his only child was a mentally disabled person who couldn't even take care of himself.

After the fool finished elementary school, he didn't continue to study, because the family couldn't afford it, and reading didn't seem to mean much to a fool, so Widow Zhang could only let the child squat at home every day, or let him go out for a stroll at will.

Because he was mentally handicapped, this child was bullied by other children in the neighborhood, and often those naughty bear children would throw stones at the fool, or drag him to a corner where no one was around, and beat him, so that the fool had a blue nose and swollen face every day.

As a mother, Widow Zhang actually knew this qiē, but she couldn't manage it and didn't want to take care of it.

Widow Zhang can't talk about how much she likes this child, although she was born with ten months of hard work, maybe she can still care for this child with the feeling of "maternal love" at first, but every time she faces the expressionless face of the fool, Widow Zhang's love for him gradually begins to fade.

Because this child almost does not have such a thing as "feelings".

You don't say thank you, you don't react to your efforts, you care about him when he's tired, hungry, injured or sleepy, you run back and forth for him all day long, you work hard to get him well fed and dressed, but he will never give you anything in return.

Yes, this child is to give Widow Zhang such a feeling, a feeling that he will never have anything in response to you, as if every qiē you give must be taken for granted and deserved by him.

Widow Zhang didn't understand why the child gave her such feelings, which made Widow Zhang feel uncomfortable anyway.

Widow Zhang once tried not to give him anything to eat, except for water, she didn't give the child anything to eat, for three days and three nights, this fool still didn't say a word, didn't open his mouth at all, and would stare at Widow Zhang with a terrible gaze.

He can actually speak, Widow Zhang knows it very well, occasionally hears a sentence or two, and speaks it very fluently, but this child has never called Widow Zhang to call his mother, no matter how many times Widow Zhang asks him to call his mother.

In fact, these are nothing, although Widow Zhang is not a strong woman, but she is a very patient person, even if she doesn't like this child, Widow Zhang will still take on the responsibility of raising him, she will raise him until he is eighteen years old, and then she will never care about it again.

But recently, Widow Zhang felt that she could no longer do even the most basic responsibility of raising her.

The child made Widow Zhang feel extremely tired, because she found that the child had a strange hobby—he even liked to catch small animals to kill.

It doesn't seem like a big deal, but once when Widow Zhang witnessed her son abusing and killing a cat, she really couldn't stand it.

Why did she have such a child?

Widow Zhang was very puzzled, when she saw her son carrying the corpse of a cat with his hands covered in blood, her heart was full of doubts and horrors, and that was the first time she had the idea of abandoning the child.

Even when she lost her husband and gave birth to a child alone, and even learned that her child was a deformed child with partial deformities in both hands and legs, she never had the idea of abandoning the child during the most difficult time.

But now, she has.

But she couldn't do it, or rather...... It's too late to do it.

In the hot June of one year, Widow Zhang disappeared, and no one in the neighborhood saw this woman again, and no one knew where she went, of course...... No one cared where she went.

Only Widow Zhang's deformed child is still in the house, the child was about thirteen years old when Widow Zhang disappeared, and I don't know how he survived, anyway, he has been alive and well, and he has survived to this day.

When he was fifteen years old, he would take his household registration book to apply for an ID card, report his mother as a missing person, refuse to be adopted by a welfare home, and live alone in that dilapidated house.

He even works on his own to earn his own living expenses, and a while ago someone noticed that he went to work at a place called Hezepo Amusement Park, which was newly built after the demolition of the neighborhood.

A qiē seems to be normal.

Until today.

The man returned to his dilapidated house in the middle of the night, and he looked at a young man, standing up straight, about 1.75 meters tall.

But he rarely stands up straight, and most of the time he hunches his back, giving people a sense of fear.

He walked with a slight limp, limping, but he seemed to be trying hard to make himself look like a normal person, so if he hadn't paid close attention, he wouldn't have noticed his mobility problems.

He was dressed very tightly, the weather was already a little hot at this time, and short-sleeved and short skirts abounded, but the man still wrapped himself tightly, with a black long-sleeved jacket and black trousers, and he even wore a mask and gloves.

Dressed in black, he almost blends in with the darkness around him, and if he travels at night, he walks in a dark corner, and I am afraid that he will not be noticed.

The man walked into his door, didn't turn on the light, and entered the bedroom in the dark but with ease, and then directly turned on a veteran computer in the bedroom.

It's a very old computer, probably recycled from the thrift market, but the basic functions are still there, you can watch movies and visit the website, etc., these are enough.

After the man turned on the computer, he operated for a while, and seemed to have watched some news, and then began to visit the popular forum in A City, and soon saw that the first page of the forum was topped with hot and countless replies to the popular post.

The title of the post reads like this – Freak Killer.

A strange title, but it's because it's strange, so many people click in with curiosity, but when they go in and take a look, everyone discovers the hidden mystery in this post.

At the beginning of the post, the landlord who posted the post made a serious list of a series of missing children in the recent missing child cases.

This seems to be nothing, the recent disappearance of children has caused a storm in the city, and the police have long put together a list of all the missing children, encouraging people in the city to help find the missing children.

So it wouldn't be strange that the landlord could report all the names of the missing children.

It's normal for others to look at it.

But in the eyes of the murderer, this is very abnormal.

The reason for this anomaly is that the list of missing children has a sequence of names.

In fact, even the police in City A did not have a complete grasp of the specific time of the disappearance of these children, because there were three or four cases of disappearance in a row in one day.

From the disappearance of the child to the time when the parents found out that the situation was wrong and called the police, there is a critical time error in the process from the disappearance to the police.

Some of the children may have disappeared long ago, but because the parents called the police a little late, the police could not determine exactly when the children went missing.

In addition, the place where these children disappeared was basically in an amusement park, or a place with a lot of people.

Even the surveillance cameras on the street can't capture the child's figure, because there are too many people, and when people come and go, the child is so small, maybe he will be hooked by someone and squeezed into the crowd and taken away.

So, even though the police list the names of all the missing children, the order of the list is shuffled and is based on the time when the parents called the police.

But in this forum, in this post......

The names of the missing children are listed in the order in which they died.

This is where the killer is most incredulous and surprised.

As a thoughtful criminal, he knew very well the time and order of the death of the dead he had killed, and he remembered the name of the child, the time of death, and the appearance of the child when he died.

Remember clearly.

He could even mentally make a list of deaths, exactly like the one in the post he saw now.

The landlord who wrote this post, after making such a list, also wrote the following sentence after the names of these missing children:

Their souls are like birds in procession, marching to heaven in the order of death.

This sentence is like blatantly informing the murderer that the order of this death list is not a coincidence.

So, the man sitting in the dilapidated house opened his eyes wide, and he was immediately aroused.

Plus this post has a catchy title "Freak Killer".

It made the murderer clearly aware that someone knew his identity!
