......

"Mr. Tripp, our children are gone!"

"Mr. Tripp, our kids are gone!"

"Mr. Tripp, our family ......"

"Your children are gone?"

In just one night's work, there were eleven fewer children in the entire Chunfeng Alley.

Eleven.

This is clearly not an accidental case of a lost child or trafficking of a child.

Even not long after the news reached Tripp's ears, Yuan Yi hurried to the attic of Tripp's house in a hurry.

"Bad thing...... A child drowned by the river at the mouth of the alley. ”

The child was drowned?

Missing with the child?

What's the connection?

If so.

That is, no one wants the child who drowns to be their own.

......

The river outside Chunfeng Lane is called Xiaoqiao Liushui.

A small bridge, a bend in the water, soft stones paved the river beach.

It was originally a picture of tranquility.

But as the body of a seven-year-old child floated on the river, it became a crime scene for a while.

The police have arrived.

The person in charge of the investigation was Cao Meng.

According to the intelligence at the scene, it is true that the child drowned.

But there's a problem......

"What's the problem?"

Tripp, who had arrived on the road, stepped forward and asked.

Cao Meng glanced at him, and his instinctive reaction was: "The child of Chunfeng Lane? ”

Tripp has never been too lazy to bother with things other than Spring Breeze Lane.

Tripp didn't speak, as the crowd behind him was likely to be the child's parents.

Cao Meng and Tripp have no grievances and contradictions.

Even, Cao Meng still respects Tripp, a villain who dares to be tough with aliens, and Tripp has also heard that although Cao Meng is a policeman, he has secretly helped many poor people in Bluestar.

It's not a heart-to-heart sympathy, but it's true that there is no dislike between each other.

Cao Meng led the way in front, Tripp followed behind, Tripp only brought Yuan Yi with him, and the rest of the two team members were blocking the residents of Chunfeng Lane from approaching.

The three of them went up to the small bridge.

Cao Meng pointed to the broken rope on the bridge and a few collision marks and said:

"Although it was wet with water, many of the traces are not clear, but you can still basically deduce what happened at that time?"

The drowned child was tied up and carried all the way to the bridge, presumably intending to cross the bridge.

And at this point, the rope broke.

The child fell into the river.

After a forensic examination, the child had a scar on the head.

It seems that the child fainted when he fell into the river.

So, in the end, he drowned in the river.

After all, the deepest part of such a river is only up to the child's neck, and there are almost no children in Chunfeng Lane who can't swim, and the water quality is naturally not bad.

In this way, there is only this explanation above.

Not far behind him, a couple of men and women cried:

"Dog!! Dog baby ......"

It seems that the child has found his parents.

And the parents only found the body.

Cao Meng reluctantly turned around and continued to lead Tripp forward, after they crossed the bridge.

Found a sandy area:

"There are a few suspicious footprints here, and there are five or six people in total."

"One of them, it should be a woman."

"Everybody's shoe size is normal, but the depth of the footprints is abnormal."

"To be able to press out such deep footprints, you must be a fat man of more than two hundred pounds."

"But according to the law of human survival, the feet of fat people are not too narrow, otherwise they will not be able to bear their own weight."

"Of course, exceptions are not excluded. But it is impossible that these are such exceptions, and it is impossible that five or six people are fat people who are more than two hundred pounds. ”

Such a team is very conspicuous in people's field of vision.

Looking at the direction these people are heading, it is a small mountain forest not far away.

Cao Meng said they had sent police to follow him.

If you're lucky, you might be able to catch up.

"If you're lucky."

After learning the general situation, Yuan Yi took the lead in asking Tripp: "Boss, how to deal with this matter?" ”

Tripp took a look at Yuan Yi's severed hand, he had just been discharged from the hospital for a few days, and Tripp hoped that he could rest for a few more days.

patted him on the shoulder: "Leave it to me and the rest of the brothers, you take care of your injuries first!" ”

He returned to the other side of the bridge.

His feet had just gotten off the bridge.

The residents of Chunfeng Lane all gathered around:

"Mr. Tripp, you're going to save my child!"

"We must save our children! That's one kid in our family! ”

It's almost a message for help.

And the reason why their emotions fluctuated again was not only because of the corpse of a child, but also because of .....

They don't know where they heard the legend of the "child-eating youkai".

This is the main reason that accelerates their nervousness.

In the midst of the noise, Tripp couldn't tell where they had heard about the rumors.

If it had been placed in the past, he would definitely ask: Where are there any monsters in this world?

But not long ago, he had just experienced something weird.

That Black Forest.

That is where I lost my two brothers.

According to Yuan Yi's recollections, their two brothers should have been stewed into broth.

A monster that eats XXX?

Humanoid monsters!

Tripp suddenly thought, "Could it be this guy?" ”

If it really is......

This time, he was a little hesitant.

If it had been before, he would definitely rush over to save those children without hesitation.

But he knew very well how far he was from the man-eating monster.

Tripp could only tell the residents in the end that he needed to prepare.

to act.

And just like that, Tripp returned to the attic from the noise.

Then he locked the door behind him.

Before dinner, Yuan Yi brought his two brothers to find Tripp.

Apparently the residents went to them for help.

They are also anxious.

"Boss, Chunfeng Lane is our territory, those children are our children, we can't ignore it!"

They begged the boss to step up.

But Tripp said he needed a little more time to prepare.

Yuan Yi and they left.

Tripp still locked himself in the attic.

Late at night, he was hungry.

Looking at the empty streets, he went out.

Because of the rumors of eating children's monsters, the residents of the entire alley closed their stalls early and closed their doors.

For some reason, walking down the street.

Tripp could still feel a chill behind him.

He subconsciously walked a few steps faster.

Leaving Chunfeng Alley, I entered a main street.

It was brightly lit, in stark contrast to the empty Chunfeng Alley.

Tripp breathed a sigh of relief.

There seems to be a lot less yin in the back.

He walked into a food street.

After sitting down at a noodle restaurant and asking for a bowl of "Qiao Bu Liren's Specialty Ramen".

He sat there.

It's still a lost child and that youkai.

"Do you really believe in youkai?"

A voice came into his ears from behind him:

"Isn't the case clear? It's clear that someone deliberately kidnapped those children! ”
