"Dead?"

Hearing Brother Hu's last words, the hairs on my whole body exploded.

"Brother Hu, how did that kid die?"

"Now that I think about it, maybe the traffickers who kidnapped him were killed. All the people we caught back then said that they didn't know the whereabouts of the child, but in fact, it is possible that they knew, but they had already made a confession and did not say anything.

I remember that day after seeing the small table lamp in Sister-in-law Zhang's hand, Xu Lang and Brother Wang Jun and I borrowed a police dog from the city bureau as soon as we had an idea. It's hard to imagine that almost a year has passed, and the smell of a missing child still lingers on this small lamp. The police dog sniffed on the lamp, and then without even hesitation, he took us directly to the landfill. ”

"Landfills?"

"Yes, there it is. In the wilderness, there is nothing but mountains of garbage. At that time, when Brother Wang Jun saw this situation, he guessed that the child was killed, and after the body was divided, it was thrown away as garbage. Therefore, it is recommended that we stop looking for it and go back and close the case. But Xu Lang and I don't believe in this evil, we have to find the body.

The three of us quarreled for a long time, and then decided to let Brother Wang Jun go back with the police dog first, and Xu Lang and I found someone to help dig up the place where the garbage was buried in the previous months. None of the landfill workers were willing to do the excavation, so we did it ourselves. It was fine at first, but I didn't feel anything except for the smelly spots. As a result, in the evening, when Xu Lang and I were about to stop and go back, something happened. ”

"What's wrong?"

"The pit we dug was full of people. There are old men and old women, and there are young girls. There are half-grown young men, do you know who they are? It's a baby, it looks like it's only a few months old, and there are a dozen of them lying on the edge of the garbage pit, and their little eyes are staring at us, which frightens Xu Lang and me.

We stood at the bottom of the pit and did not dare to move, and after a while, another group of people rushed from outside. Those people were all wearing the military uniforms of Japanese devils during World War II, and without saying a word, they began to push people into the pit. I remember very clearly, three or four old ladies held me down, and I couldn't breathe. After finally pushing the person on his body away. The Japanese soldiers outside had already begun to bury the pit.

I don't know if it's dirt or the garbage we dug up before. A big puddle of stuff fell down and covered my face, and I don't remember anything after that. Anyway, when I woke up again, Xu Lang and I were lying on the ghoul road outside the ghost village when we encountered a passing car. Bring us to the village. It's become a person here.

We didn't understand anything at that time. It wasn't until later that people arranged to take classes at Tiandao University for a year that they slowly got used to it. Being able to work at the police station in the western suburbs was actually arranged by Mr. Li Xueqing. Now think about it. At that time, I was really young and ignorant, and I went to investigate the case with enthusiasm, but I didn't think that I would end up harming myself. ”

Brother Hu shook his head with a wry smile, raised his hand to roll up the sleeve on his right arm, and showed a scar on his forearm in front of my eyes.

"Xiao Yan, do you know where this wound came from? Hehe, this is a gunshot wound, but I have lived outside for 20 years, and I have never encountered any gunfights or anything like that, this wound was caused in a landfill back then.

There was a World War II mass grave under the garbage pit we dug up, and many people let the Japanese devils shoot them with machine guns and then bury them. Xu Lang and I dug casually, and I didn't know who disturbed us, so we got here. This wound appeared at that time for no reason, and it will never be removed for a lifetime. ”

Brother Hu said this, and let out a long sigh.

I really don't know what to say. If there is any "most unlucky award" in the world, maybe Brother Hu and that big brother Xu Lang can still get a nomination.

"Uh, Brother Hu, it's been so long since this happened, you haven't thought about how to go back again?After all, the people who come to the ghost village are not really dead people, you and that big brother Xu Lang have been here for so long, you should have a chance to leave, right?"

"Yes, of course there is a chance to leave. Xu Lang and I are among the top ten outstanding people's policemen in the ghost village every year, and we have long been able to return to our original lives. However, we all gave up the opportunity. ”

"Why?"

"I'm used to it. In fact, the life in the ghost village is much better than the outside, and you will understand it slowly. Okay, it's a bit far-fetched, let's talk about this small table lamp. Xu Lang and I didn't find the body of the missing child, but it must have been in a landfill. A six-year-old kid couldn't have survived that place, so I'm sure he's dead. Outside, Brother Wang Jun's case has already been closed, and none of us take it seriously.

But one day in December last year, when I was preparing to shift in the office, I happened to meet two brothers who had gone out on duty and brought back a crazy woman. At that time, I recognized the crazy woman at a glance as Sister-in-law Zhang, and when I grabbed the two brothers and asked, I found out that Sister-in-law Zhang didn't know where to run to the ghost village, and rushed into the children's special school in a daze to make a fuss.

I took Sister-in-law Zhang from them, and Sister-in-law Zhang was still the same as when she was outside, and she couldn't say anything at all. My heart is full of looking for my son. I couldn't ask anything, and I couldn't contact Brother Wang Jun outside, so I discussed with Xu Lang and sent Sister-in-law Zhang to the Human Soul Research Center in the Human Ghost Village.

It's been almost a year now, and Sister-in-law Zhang is still like that, and the doctor over there told us to find some spiritual sustenance, maybe we can alleviate Sister-in-law Zhang's condition. Then we thought of this little table lamp. Originally, when I planned to go out next time, I gave my dream to Brother Wang Jun and asked him to find this small table lamp and burn it for us, who knew that this thing ran into your hands. By the way, Xiao Yan, where did you get it?"

"I?sigh......" Hearing Brother Hu's question, I couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly, and roughly talked about the origin of this small table lamp.

After Brother Hu understood, he smiled dumbly.

"Hey, this thing is really a coincidence, a small table lamp can involve so many things, so many people. ”

"Who's to say it isn't. I smiled and responded, and suddenly a flash of inspiration occurred to me. Hurriedly asked: "Brother Hu, you just said that you didn't find the body of the missing child, do you think that the child will also come to the ghost village?"

"Impossible! If that child is in the ghost village, can Xu Lang and I not know? But if there are children without parents who can't escape the eyes of the village management in the ghost village, they will definitely be sent to the special children's school, I went to look for it, and there is no one, so from this point it can also prove that Sister-in-law Zhang's son is really dead at this time." Maybe they were all reincarnated, or they died unjustly. Made a little ghost. It's not alive anyway. ”

"In this way, that tiger head is not the son of Sister-in-law Zhang. Hey, that's right, Brother Hu. The older teacher told me that this small lamp had a man's thief spirit attached to it. You said. Could it be Sister-in-law Zhang?"

"Swallowing the soul of a thief? Are you talking about the soul of a man? I don't know much about that. That's what. Otherwise, I'll be done with my side in a while, and I'll take you to the Human Soul Research Center to find Sister-in-law Zhang. When the time comes, we'll know what the situation is. ”

"Okay. ”

"Okay, then you can take this thing first. ”

Brother Hu smiled and returned the robot cat lamp to me.

I carefully put things back in my bag, and at this moment, Brother Hu spoke again.

"Xiao Yan, I patronized to tell you my story just now, and I forgot to tell you about Wu Ming. ”

"Yes, Wu Ming!"

Hearing Brother Hu's words, I suddenly came to my senses, and I went around in such a big circle, wasn't my purpose to find Wu Ming.

"Brother Hu, you say, what's the news from your side?"

"There is really no news, Wu Ming's kid is now a wanted criminal in the whole ghost village, and he used to be a top student of Tiandao University, arresting him is a matter of the village management, and it has nothing to do with us ordinary policemen. The main thing is that special students like you are not something we can deal with. What I want to tell you is Wu Ming.

Wu Ming, this kid, I know very well, speaking of which, Xu Lang and I brought him to the ghost village. Very good child, smart, hard-working, and caring. It's just that the person I like occasionally loses my heart. I think that if everything he wants to do is done, it is estimated that he will not harm people anymore, so we don't need to chase after it, right?

Of course, I'm not saying this to cover up criminals. Killing people to pay for their lives, paying off debts, this is a rule that can't be changed anywhere, if I really find Wu Ming one day, I will definitely be the first to rush up and catch him. I say this to show you that you don't have to be afraid. With Wu Ming's child's character, he won't say that because you found out about his crime, he will take revenge on you, and he won't be angry with your friends because of this, so you don't have to worry so much. ”

"Uh......"

Brother Hu's words are reasonable, and I am speechless.

In fact, when I turn my head and think about it, this is really the case, just like Liang Tianyu and I saw through Wu Ming's murder in advance, but Wu Ming didn't kill us, and his goal was only to target those people that Tong Xin resented. From this, it is enough to see that Wu Ming is not a particularly dangerous person.

But the problem is, I can't find him, I feel uncomfortable. Even if I don't send him to be punished, at least I should know where he is and what he's doing.

I looked up at Brother Hu, nodded solemnly and said, "Brother Hu, I understand your words, I think there is no one in the ghost village who knows more about what happened to Wu Ming than me." I understand him, but that doesn't mean I can let him go. I just want to know now, what is the purpose of his evasion of wanted, to take Tong Xin out of the ghost village alive?"

"This ......" Brother Hu scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "I don't understand this either." I've read Wu Ming's file, and it stands to reason that the people this kid is dealing with are dead, and his little girlfriend is also locked up in the village management office. Normally, with the way he handles things and his emotions, the next step should be to take the initiative to surrender and ask for a chance to be with his little girlfriend, instead of hiding.

But that's not the case, so I guess Wu Ming must have something else to do, or that he can't help himself now, and he is being coerced to turn himself in. ”

"Huh, you mean, Wu Ming was taken hostage?"

"That's what I just guessed, who knows what the truth is. Perhaps, it is possible that none of the people he wants to kill are dead. Forget it, take your time, and when you find him, everything will fall into place. ”

"Okay. ”

After listening to Brother Hu's words, I leaned on the car seat, and I didn't feel a good feeling.

I guessed that Wu Ming used Lin Na to take revenge on me and the fat man, and it felt really a bit "the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain", but let me give up looking for this person, it's still a little unpleasant, no, very unhappy!

Keep looking?

But now the clues I have about Wu Ming are gone!

Alas, headaches.

Forget it, no matter, let's take it one step at a time!

Shaking my head and leaving behind those who didn't, I subconsciously turned my head to look out the window, and at this moment I found that his car had driven into a deep mountain and old forest.

"Hey, Brother Hu, I forgot to ask you, where are we going, what mission are you doing today?"

"This is to bury Shanxi Yufeng alive. The ghost village sits in the north and faces south, the south is the ghoul road at the entrance of the village, the north is the live burial mountain behind the village, and the west jade peak is at the intersection of the westernmost ghoul road and the living burial mountain in the westernmost part of the village. ”

"What are you doing there?"

"It said that there was a passage connecting the outside world to the ghost village that had been destroyed, and the village administrators had gone outside to set up an enchantment to prevent anyone from entering. Our task is to put up a cordon around there to prevent people who shouldn't be going out. ”

"Doesn't that mean that the passage between the ghost village and the outside world has been opened?

"I don't know exactly what it is, but I heard that it looks like a tree has been knocked down, and I'm worried that it's not the one from my hometown. ”

"Your hometown?" When Brother Hu said this, I was stunned for a moment, and then something flashed in my mind, and I couldn't help but exclaim: "Brother Hu, you can't be talking about that thousand-year-old locust tree, right?"

"It's possible. ”

Brother Hu turned his gaze to the front with a solemn face, and I followed him to look over, and I was surprised to find that the car had driven to the foot of a mountain. Slowly slowed down, drove out less than a few dozen meters, the convoy stopped, Brother Hu hadn't opened the car door yet, and a black shadow suddenly jumped out of the car window.

I chuckled in my heart, and when I fixed my eyes, it was the gorilla spinach who was covered in black hair and grinning teeth and beckoning to me outside!

Didn't it go on a trip with Mr. Li?

I hurriedly opened the door and got out of the car, raised my eyes to look, and saw that at the foot of the mountain peak not far away, Mr. Li Xueqing stood solemnly on a boulder, raising one hand and waving at me, signaling me to go over.

When I came closer, Mr. Li gently patted me on the shoulder and said in a condensed voice: "Yan is right and wrong, that old locust tree, dead ......" (to be continued......)
