Section 7: Dig three feet into the ground
In the dark night, I look forward to the dawn, but after the dawn, there is a nightmare. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Jia Fugui came to the clinic again, he sat down, his face gloomy...... Luo Hui is your landlord? β
I nodded, "That's right." β
"In the early hours of this morning, someone called to say that Luo Hui was missing, but he refused to leave his name." Jia Fugui asked again: "Did you see Luo Hui yesterday?" β
I shook my head, "No." β
Jia Fugui sighed, "Alas! It's really strange that five people disappeared for a few days in a row, and they didn't see anyone alive or dead, which made me puzzled. β
"If you don't show up, something must have happened!" I say.
"You're saying it's a vendetta?"
I hesitate"...... If vendetta should see the corpse, there is no need to hide the corpse. β
"Well, you're right, I find it strange too."
At this time, the door of the clinic was pushed open, and Tian Fang, who was wearing a tiger head and ear cap, ran to me with breakfast in her right hand, "Master, it's time to eat!" β
"Your apprentice's hat is very powerful!" Jia Fugui looked at Tian Fang and smiled.
"Director Jia, let's have some food together?" Tian Fang is polite.
"Thanks, I've eaten it."
"You're coming to see the doctor again?" Tian Fang asked.
"It's not."
"I know! It's because Luo Hui is missing! Tian Fang guessed.
"You're very well-informed!"
"Of course! People who buy breakfast are talking about it! Tian Fang said.
"All talking? Soon after the report was reported, the people in the village knew? Jia Fugui was puzzled.
Tian Fang explained, "There was a man named Xia Hong who cried and complained in the morning market, saying that her husband Luo Hui was missing, and asked everyone if they had seen it. I guess that's it! Tian Fang disagreed.
I said, "Xia Hong is Luo Hui's ex-wife, but she never got married after the divorce, she is an infatuated woman." β
"Where does Luo Hui live?" Jia Fugui asked me.
Tian Fang replied, "Didn't the reporter mention it to you?" It's right next to it! She lifted her finger.
Jia Fugui looked helpless, "The person who made the anonymous call only said that Luo Hui was missing, and emphasized that Luo Hui was Dr. Hou's landlord, and hung up the phone after speaking." β
"Do you want to see Luo Hui's house?" I asked.
Jia Fugui nodded: "That's right." β
After that, I accompanied Jia Fugui to the door of Luo Hui's house. The door of his house was closed without the slightest gap.
"The door should be locked." Jia Fugui looked back at me.
"Since someone reported the crime, this person must have been here." I say.
"You're right."
Jia Fugui raised his right hand and twisted the doorknob, and as soon as he pulled the door, the door opened! Inside, it's as cold as an ice cellar. Apparently, the window had been left open all night, and the heat had been dimmed out of the room. He went to the kitchen to take a look, and I came to the bedroom like a ghost. Except for the open window, which was swaying in the cold wind, everything else was so quiet.
Taking advantage of the scene, I thought of the cat with blood sticking to the corners of its mouth, it came out from under the bed, is the speckled blood stain an omen, there is a foreign object under the bed?
I crouched down, pulled the draped sheet, and peeked under the bed. But the light was so weak that I could only faintly see a pair of red women's leather boots. Reaching for the boots, I felt something hard in the boots, "What's that?" "I was thinking, my heart was racing, and I had a premonition that something was wrong.
"That'sβwhatβShen" I tugged outward, and when my boots were under the bed, I spread my hands and held my breath, my thoughts boiling.
"Doctor Hou, what are you doing?"
Glancing at Jia Fugui standing at the door opposite, I pointed to the bottom of the bed, "There is a corpse!" β
"Oh!" He was surprised.
Looking at the corpse together, the deceased was a woman, whose face was completely disfigured and unrecognizable. I guess it was the hungry cat who did it. Moreover, there was a card in her jacket pocket that showed a corner.
"Who is she?" Jia Fugui was puzzled.
I saw a mole on the right side of her neck, "She is Ye Xiaomeng, Luo Hui's concubine!" β
"Wait! Since she is Luo Hui's concubine and died here, does this mean that Luo Hui is absconding in fear of crime? β
I asked rhetorically, "What is the voice of the informant?" β
"Husky!"
"It's her!" I was shocked, "How did she know that Luo Hui was missing, and what was her purpose?" β
"You know her?"
"A year ago, she came to the clinic and I think she was stimulated!" I have palpitations.
"Now that Ye Xiaomeng is dead, Luo Hui is definitely the culprit!"
"Nope! Maybe it's too early. I said.
"What do you mean ......"
The person reported the case without a name, and apparently, she did not want to reveal her identity. This shows that Luo Hui's disappearance is related to her! I said.
Jia Fugui asked, "Why did she report that Luo Hui was missing?" β
"......" I can't explain.
Immediately, Jia Fugui took out the card in the deceased's pocket, and I also saw clearly that it was an ID card.
"You guessed it, it's Ye Xiaomeng!" With a grim face, he handed me his ID.
I took it and looked at it carefully, "It's a shame that I died at a young age." β
"Judging from the scene, Ye Xiaomeng has no other external injuries except for facial disfigurement, and she is very likely to die of internal injuries!" He said.
"You think she's poisoned?" I asked.
"What do you say?" He asked rhetorically.
"I'm a TCM practitioner or a forensic doctor, I'm not sure. But judging from the above points, it is very likely that she died of poisoning. I said.
"Why did Luo Hui poison Ye Xiaomeng?" He asked.
"It is rumored that the two of them are going to get married, so it is not true that Luo Hui killed her!" I said again, "Listen to Tan San, Luo Hui ordered dinner the afternoon before yesterday. β
"At the Tan San Hotel?"
I nodded, "Yes!" The food delivery is mute. β
"Does this mean that Luo Hui was also poisoned?"
"But at the scene, there was only one body." I say.
"The culprit - is it the mute who delivers the food?" He guessed.
ββ¦β¦ Hardly. As the words fell, I looked down and found that there was a pinhole in the vein of the deceased's right hand, and the surrounding area was red and swollen.
Just then, footsteps could be heard outside the bedroom. When I looked up, this person was already standing at the door, and she was Xia Hong.
"Ye Xiaomeng is dead. Do you know who the informant is? I asked Xia Hong, whose eyes were red.
"I didn't report the crime, and I don't know who it was." Xia Hong suddenly covered her face with her hands and cried bitterly.
Soon after, I left my landlord's house.
Ye Xiaomeng's death made me sleep, and all morning, I had her in my mind. Maybe Luo Hui's disappearance and Ye Xiaomeng's death are thousands of miles away from what we think!
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Eight o'clock in the evening.
I haven't been to Ma Erfeng's house for a long time, and I'm worried about Erbao's condition. So, I wore the stars and the moon and rushed to the top of the east mountain to visit.
Embarking on a familiar path, but subconsciously so unfamiliar. When I think back to my old friends, I am saddened by their disappearance. the rattle of snow under your feet; The northwest wind howls in your ears; The cold moon hangs high in the sky, and this scene is like wandering in the abyss of hell!
Soon, I came to Ma Erfeng's house, looked at her face a little, and found that she looked good.
"How's Erbao?" I asked.
β...... He can turn over by himself, he can eat and drink, thank you and Tian Fang! She smiled.
"Take me to see it?" I'm still not at ease.
"Okay!"
She led me into a dark room. When the lights were on, I saw the sleeping Erbao.
"Hehe, I haven't seen this kid get fat for a few days!" I say.
"This is also thanks to Tian Fang, she seems to be very proficient in medicine, and she knows how to regulate Erbao."
"She is very smart and learns Chinese medicine very quickly." I say.
ββ¦β¦ I don't mean that, I mean she knows a lot about the anatomy of the human body, really! "She's serious.
"Yes!" I digressed the topic, "Did Tian Fang sleep?" β
"Hey! The lights were on in her house all night, I can't say! She approached me and whispered, "This girl is not normal!" β
"Abnormal?" I wondered.
"Go and see it now, and you'll understand!"
I reflect on her words.
β¦β¦
β¦β¦
Tian Fang's rented place is only one alley away from Ma Erfeng's house. As soon as I left here, I came to Tian Fang's house. Coincidentally, the door of her yard was unlocked, so I pushed the door in.
When I entered the lighted room, I looked around, shouting again and again, but there was no response. So, I wandered around and searched a few rooms, but I was still disappointed.
"Ma Erfeng is right, she is not at home, and it is indeed abnormal for the door to be locked or turned off." I muttered to myself.
Turning my head to look out the window, I noticed a bright light in the distance: "Who's in the garden?" β
Leaving the house, I crept into the garden and headed straight for the place of light. When I got close to the target, I could see that the man was wearing a hard hat with a flashlight on his head, and he was digging through the earth with a pickaxe. Look at the figure is a woman.
"Bury you, bury you......" This voice is so familiar!
Quietly approaching, I reached out and patted her on the shoulder, "Who are you burying?" β
"Ahh She screamed and turned to look at me, "Master! β
The flashlight above Tian Fang's head flashed into people's eyes, and I half-covered my eyes with my hands, "What are you doing digging holes?" β
ββ¦β¦ I'm going to bury the turnips and potatoes, because they'll rot in the house, and that's the best! She pointed to the pile of vegetables on the ground.
"Listen to Ma Erfeng, you take good care of Erbao, I didn't misunderstand you." I say.
"Those who can work hard, they should be!" Tian Fang raised her gloved hands to warm her ears.
"You know a lot about the anatomy of the human body?"
"I don't know anything."
"But Ma Erfeng said that you are an expert."
"She's talking nonsense!"
Tian Fang suddenly got angry, turned her face like turning a book, I think she was so excited, she couldn't help but make a big fuss.
