Team Li seemed reluctant to mention the topic, and there was a sound of footsteps on the other side of the phone, and he walked to a place where no one was there before he spoke: "That kid has a misunderstanding about death." ”

"The children's worldview has not yet been formed, and perhaps in their eyes, death is just a distant place, which I can understand." Ever since Chen Ge had seen Mennan's main personality, no matter how strange the child was, it seemed normal to him.

"If only this were the case, after the child was rescued, he didn't say a word for three days, he didn't cry or make trouble, and he was scary." Team Lee fell into memory.

"Until the evening of the fourth day, a policewoman found her curled up in the corner of the bed staring at the spider at the head of the bed in a daze, thinking that she was afraid of spiders, so she crushed the spider to death, but the little girl suddenly cried and said that the policewoman had killed her sister."

"It was the first time the girl spoke, and that's from that time on, and we noticed that something was wrong with her."

"A child who is not upset by the death of her parents, but cries because of the death of a spider, what is the world like for her?"

"We tried to explain to her the meaning of the word death, and it turned out that in her mind, death is not the end of a person, and the girl told us very seriously that people become other things after death, which is a bit similar to reincarnation."

"Because we are not afraid of death, we can often hear cruel words from this child's mouth."

"A lovely child who looks as pure as an angel and speaks of death in an innocent voice, is she an angel? Or the devil? ”

"After digging deeper, we found more details."

"It was a villager who was passing by who reported the crime, and based on the autopsy report, it was roughly assumed that the girl had been with her deceased parents for at least two days." Team Li's voice was lowered: "A four- or five-year-old child is psychologically close to being independent, able to think on her own, and do a lot of things, but for two whole days, she didn't call the police, and she didn't go to adults for help, don't you think it's strange?" ”

"Could it be that her parents never taught her anything about it?" Jiang Ling's pitiful appearance flashed in Chen Ge's mind, and he also faintly felt that something was not right.

"Only the fingerprints of the girl and her parents were found in the house, and the poisoning method was unimaginably inferior, but it was successful. There are many similar doubts, in short, this case is not as simple as you think. ”

Someone on the other side of the phone was calling Team Li's name, and it seemed that there was something looking for him, and Team Li casually agreed.

"Chen Ge, I have an urgent matter now, and I have to rush over. I know I may not be able to persuade you, so I can only remind you to be careful of that child, and not to run to that village at night. ”

"Can't enter the village at night?"

"Look at the map, don't you think it's strange that there is a village within a radius of a few miles? When we were investigating other villages and towns, an old man told us that there was a plague in Linguan Village a long time ago, and many people died. ”

There was someone on the other side of the phone urging Team Li, and after a few words of explanation, Team Li hung up the phone, leaving Chen Ge alone in the dark and dilapidated village.

There was a busy sound in his ears, and Chen Ge silently put away his mobile phone: "What he said a long time ago, how many years ago?" ”

Scanning the dark Linguan Village, Chen Ge looked at the boxy and dilapidated houses, feeling like rows of coffins that were not closed.

"Lin Guan Village, if the forest character is taken apart, won't it become a wooden coffin village?"

He exited the village and stopped next to the concrete road.

Not to mention in the middle of the night, even during the day, he can't get a taxi in this place, and he can't go back to the city now.

"Jiang Ling said that her father's peach grove is in the west of the village, so let's go there first."

Chen Ge turned on the flashlight and walked along the winding mountain road towards the west of Linguan Village.

The road became narrower and narrower, and he crossed the mountain, and when Chen Ge was about to give up, he suddenly saw a faint light in front of him.

"Anyone?"

The light was moving on the other side of the mountain, slowly moving away, and the other party didn't seem to see him.

Chen Ge pulled the hammer handle outward again, stuffed Xiaoxiao into his personal pocket, and then continued to move forward.

The mountain road was rugged, and he didn't dare to run too fast, and after about ten minutes of chasing, the light in front of him slowly disappeared.

"It can't be a ghost fire, right?"

The mountain in the middle of the night was particularly terrifying, there was no one around, Chen Ge remembered some stories he had heard when he was a child, what ghosts led the way, wolves held lanterns, mandrills, and so on.

"Calm down and don't panic." He patted his face lightly, wrapped his coat tightly, and ran towards the place where the light had disappeared.

After turning over the second mountain, the scene in front of me changed, and a peach forest was planted in the gap of the mountain.

Because of neglect, the peach forest is full of wild grass, and many peach trees grow crookedly, looking like living people from a distance.

And the vanished lamp appeared again, in the peach forest.

"This should be the peach forest contracted by Jiangling's father." found a place, but Chen Ge didn't feel happy, but because of the appearance of the lamp, he became highly nervous.

"Everyone in the neighborhood knows that there has been a murder in Taolin, why do people still come here with lights at night?" He became more and more cautious and turned off the flashlight, because of the presence of the pupil, he could see much more clearly in the dark than ordinary people.

Slowly touching the peach forest, there was the sound of a hoe digging in the dirt.

"What is he doing?"

After Chen Ge got closer, he finally saw the other party clearly.

A lamp and a water bottle hung from the branches of the peach tree, and next to it was an old man in his sixties and seventies.

He swung his hoe and dug through every inch of the peach grove, as if looking for something.

The old man's behavior was very strange, Chen Ge did not rush to show up, he followed lightly and observed carefully.

Although the old man had gray hair, he had a tough body, probably because he often did farm work, and his palms were full of calluses.

He was dressed in white-washed clothes, with a tense face, as if he had rarely smiled in his life.

"A very ordinary old man."

No matter from which point of view, this is an old man who farms, but it is such a person who ran to the scene of the murder late at night to hoe.

Chen Ge followed the old man for nearly twenty minutes, but he still didn't find anything, he calculated the time and decided to be more direct.

He was afraid that his sudden appearance would scare the old man out of his illness, so he deliberately retreated more than ten meters, turned on the flashlight, and shouted at the peach forest: "Is there anyone?" How can this mountain get out? ”

More than ten meters away, after the old man heard Chen Ge's voice, he was still frightened, and the cold sweat on his forehead instantly broke out.
