Human meat buns
Late 1988,?. ranen`
There are no high-rise buildings everywhere, there is no traffic on the streets, the capital of nearly 30 years ago still retains its original simplicity, the main means of transportation for people to and from work is still bicycles, and under the strict household registration system, the foreign population is also pitifully small.

In the era when materials were still relatively scarce, people had a kind of plot for eating meat, getting rid of the rigid system of the planned economy, and finally there was no need to take a bunch of various tickets to buy things, but there was still an unbridgeable gap between the goods supplied and people's needs.
Wang Ji Bun Shop, located in Mutton Hutong, lit a lone lamp at four o'clock in the morning when it was dark outside, the dim light in the faint morning with a bit of charm, the rhythmic sound of chopping meat woke up the sleeping residents nearby, they were not annoyed, but half-squinted on the bed waiting. Can't wait for the day to brighten, when the chimney above Wang Ji's steamed bun shop finally came out of the curling smoke, and the aroma of the steamed buns gradually dispersed, they were finally hooked away from the warm quilt by the gluttonous worms in their stomachs, and went out one foot at a time in the cold of winter, and lined up at the door of the steamed bun shop, for fear that they would be late and would not be able to eat delicious steamed buns.
The owner of Wang Ji Bun Shop is an old man in his fifties, he can't wake up all day long, he is slow to do anything, and his personality is weird, his business is so good that customers are full every day, but he is unwilling to expand production, and he refuses to hire more people to help, so he relies on his own slow work, spicy and delicious pure meat buns, a limited supply of 500 a day, no matter what kind of great character you are in B City, if you come late, please be early tomorrow, no exception. Secretly, I don't know how many food-loving gourmets despise me half to death, such a good craft, I don't make any money, I'm really stubborn.
On November 29th, no different from the past, Wang Ji's spicy pure meat buns were once again snapped up by salivating diners as soon as they came out of the cage. Aunt Liu's family lives two kilometers away, and it takes a lot of work to get up early every day to queue up to buy steamed buns, and this steamed bun is also a lot of expenditure to eat every day, with their family's economic strength, they are not rich enough to be able to manage their full every day, so when Aunt Liu rides all the way home, she drools and wants to eat a few more bites of this delicious food, and at the same time hates a broken meat bun, why is it so delicious that people can't stop, but think about the little grandson who loves to eat buns at home, that is, this shop is farther and more expensive, She will still come to buy it for the sake of her grandson.
Liu Dazhuang from the moment his grandmother went out, he was lying on the side of the door and waiting for her to come back with delicious buns, stretching his neck long, and finally saw his grandmother riding back from a distance.
"Oh, my little ancestor, why did you run out on this cold day, carefully frozen." Seeing a small figure rushing towards her from her own door, Aunt Liu hurriedly tightened the brakes, for fear of bumping into her heart and liver, although she complained in her mouth, her eyes were full of concern.
"Grandma, grandma, be strong and eat bags." The four-year-old looked at the lunch box that his grandmother had put in the basket with good eyes, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but drool, this bun was so fragrant, better than anything he had ever eaten.
"You little gluttonous cat, how can you eat meat buns on the street, carefully choke the wind and turn around and ask your mother to take you to get an injection, the aunt who gave the injection is fierce, and pierced your little ass."
The little boy remembered the painful experience of being taken by his mother for injections before, reflexively covered his buttocks, looked at his grandmother who was smiling brightly with some resentment, and wanted to cry when his mouth was deflated.
"Whose crying bag is this? Grandma who dropped the golden beans didn't give meat buns to eat. Aunt Liu continued to tease her little grandson unscrupulously, and her old face smiled into a chrysanthemum.
Liu Dazhuang is a small person, naturally he can't understand the bad taste that the old man wants to tease him, but he just stood very aggrieved, wanting to cry but not crying, and his eyes couldn't help but aim at the lunch box in his grandmother's hand.
Aunt Liu, who was overwhelmed by her grandson's performance, pushed the cart and took her grandson home, handed the steaming buns in the lunch box to her grandson, and watched him gobble up his mouth full of oil, swallowed his saliva and smiled with satisfaction. It is already the limit of the family to let her grandson eat one bun a day, she is dozens of years old, and she can't compete with a child. Alas, the family is poor, and when the conditions are better in the future, she will definitely go to the queue early and buy it ten or eight, so that the whole family can satisfy their hunger together.
"Ahem, cough~" The grandson's sudden cough made Aunt Liu a little worried, it was no problem for a four-year-old child to eat by himself, and the stuffing of the bun was chopped and chopped, so there would not be anything stuck in the child's esophagus, right? Seeing that Zhuang Zhuang's face was starting to turn blue, Aunt Liu was so anxious that she patted the child on the back: "Little ancestor, don't scare grandma!" Spit it out, spit it out, good boy~"
Zhuang Zhuang is still small, just now he was greedy again, in order to wait for the delicious every morning, he ate very little dinner, so he didn't hold back after getting the bun, he ate faster for a while, and he couldn't wait to stop swallowing without chewing, just now he suddenly felt something a little bigger from his throat and wanted to cough things out, but he was still young, coughed and inhaled unconsciously, and the foreign body that died was sucked into his trachea, The child's trachea is so narrow in front of a foreign body, stuck in a place that does not go up or down, and under the action of the air flow, the trachea is completely blocked.
When Liu Dazhuang was taken to the hospital by his panicked grandmother and enthusiastic neighbors, he was already out of breath, his little face was bruised, and no matter how much he rescued, he could not save the child's young life. Aunt Liu cried to death, feeling sorry for the little grandson she saw with one hand. As for his parents, because they have not come back from the night shift, they have not even seen their son for the last time.
Who would have thought that a meat bun could kill a child! After the Liu family hugged their head and cried, they asked the doctor to take out the foreign body in the child's trachea, they wanted to see if there was anything in the bun that could kill someone, if it was accidentally mixed with something that should not be mixed in when the bun shop was making buns, their family was fighting for a few lives, and they must let Lao Wang pay for their children's lives!
The doctor opened the strong trachea and took out the foreign body, he was shocked and hurriedly called the police, but it turned out that the stuck boy's trachea killed a small finger about half a centimeter long, and the nails attached to it were still smeared with bright red nail polish!
Even in the 80s, when communication was not very developed, the news of eating human flesh from Wang Ji's steamed bun shop in the mutton alley still flew like wings to thousands of households, even if the police deliberately tried to block the news.
When the police really came to arrest Wang Dongjun, the owner of the bun shop, the masses who were still a little suspicious of the rumors even vomited bile. The popularity of Wang Ji Bun Shop, who has not bought it within a radius of 20 kilometers? Those who once praised the stuffing of steamed buns for being thin and fat, the soup is sweet, spicy and delicious, now as long as they think that they are eating people of their own kind, the whole person is not good.
Things have developed to this extent, and it will be boring for the police to hide and hide them, so that the masses can lead the way with their brains, and the ghost knows what direction it will be, so it is better to simply be open and transparent, and explain it clearly, so as not to spread rumors in Sijiu City in the future and people will panic.
Even in the detention center, Wang Dongjun still looked like he couldn't wake up all day, and he didn't have a special reaction to the police's arraignment, he lazily rolled his eyelids, looked at the two young policemen, and lowered his head to himself, unable to see his expression clearly, and didn't know what to think.
These two young policemen are Li Xiangyue, who has just joined the work, and his senior brother Di Baomin, who is three years older than him.
The biggest difference between the police force at that time and the current one lies in the teacher's inheritance. In the 80s, China still had a clear conservative atmosphere, experienced a decade of catastrophe, and all walks of life that had just begun to recover had their own unique rules.
If you want to be a good policeman, you don't just go to a police academy at that time, there are very few schools that specialize in training police, most police officers are not from professional classes, and their experience and skills are all taught by masters after entering the door. At that time, apprenticeship had to go through the formal process, and the whole police station would know that the name was established, and it could not be changed, and changing the division or something was a very despised behavior.
Although the title of master and apprentice will be widely advertised, but before the apprenticeship, the selection of the master and the selection of apprentices is a personal behavior, who can look at whom to see the eyes completely rely on their own to Zhang Luo, some people because of the worship of the famous teacher, after some polishing to emerge, some people because no one wants, has been in a marginal state, and finally has to do some internal work such as no technical content. Li Xiangyue is considered to be highly educated among their group of people who joined the police, but he is also not from a professional class, and he didn't understand anything at the beginning of entering the Public Security Bureau, but Di Baomin took the initiative to help him, and introduced him to worship his master Qiao Guanglu, so that Li Xiangyue gradually gained a foothold in the criminal police team.
Qiao Guanglu was the most famous criminal policeman in the Chengxi Branch at the beginning, and he commended the players who couldn't fall into other families year after year, and he had real skills under his hands, Li Xiangyue was not obvious at that time, if there was no Di Baomin's thread, he would not have been able to attract Qiao Guanglu's attention, God knows that there was no one who entered the public security bureau at the same time as him who did not want to worship under Qiao Guanglu's name, Li Xiangyue listened to sour words when he was apprenticed, but a cup of tea was saluted, the status of master and apprentice was established, and it was useless for others to be red.
Therefore, Li Xiangyue respects Di Baomin very much in his heart, and he is a senior brother who is sincere and sincere, and the three of them are in a group, and they are comfortable in the bureau and invincible. The case that was highly valued by his superiors and caused a storm in the city finally fell into the hands of Qiao Guanglu, which shows that he has great energy and is valued. However, because the prisoner has been arrested, it is a good opportunity for the two young people to learn the knowledge of the pre-trial, so Qiao Guanglu did not come forward directly, but sent two disciples to interrogate Wang Dongjun.
The search of Wang Dongjun's bun shop began as early as the day he was arrested, and many fragments of suspected human tissue were later screened out of the minced meat, but the rest of the store was cleaned up by Wang Dongjun, and the police failed to find more, given that there was no high-tech technology such as DNA identification in that era, so it was important to get Wang Dongjun's confession.
The police at least need to find out whether Wang Dongjun used human flesh or not, and if so, where did it come from, after all, the police searched the bun shop and Wang Dongjun's home, but found no other evidence.
Wang Dongjun's background has also been investigated: 57 years old, from the city, self-employed, divorced, and has a son who was sentenced to his ex-wife. It has been three years since the bun shop opened, but the business has been booming in the last seven or eight months. The police suspect that Wang Dongjun only started using unknown meat about seven or eight months ago, because it seems that no pork seller has ever received Wang Dongjun for a long, long time. At that time, meat was still in short supply, and there were not many pork dealers in the whole city together, and these people were still worried about the trouble of not receiving pigs for three days, Wang Dongjun as a small shop selling pork buns, had a great dependence on pork, if he had insisted on buying meat, it was impossible to have no intersection with these people, the number of buns in his store every day was surprisingly stable, you must know that these imported things are not better than others, there is no main raw material pork, no matter how good your technology is, it is impossible to wrap it, But no matter how expensive and difficult the pork is to buy in Market B, Wang Dongjun can't help but sell 500 buns a day, I didn't think it was like it before, but now that I think about it, even if there is no conclusive evidence, the police still believe that Wang Dongjun's meat is human flesh.
Since the day he was put in the detention center, Wang Dongjun has been cleaned up by the police in an invisible place, all of them are villagers living nearby, many people have eaten Wang Dongjun's buns, and now as soon as the case comes out, they are also like other people, vomiting sour water has come out, leaving a psychological shadow is not ordinarily heavy, let alone eating buns in the future, I am afraid that when I hear the word buns, I can't help but bend down and vomit, and I don't see that the whole city of B's large and small bun shops have been quiet these days, and you can set up a basket at the door to beat the house sparrows, There will definitely be no ghosts coming to the door.
Originally, it was a case that was not complicated, but it was widely implicated, Li Xiangyue's original intention was to exercise his pre-trial skills, and Di Baomin was to accompany him, who would have thought that it was such a case that would eventually ruin Di Baomin. (To be continued.) )
